I say this every year but how is it almost Thanksgiving already? I mean I honestly don’t know where the time goes. October disappeared in a blink. But that means it’s nearly my favorite time of the year: Christmas!
Y’all know I loving a shopping guide and this year we’re sticking with the classics. My advent calendar guide is already live. Still to come, my full gift guide along with my Christmas wishlist. But today is all about the babe on a budget. So let’s talk about the best Christmas gifts under $50.
Christmas Gift Ideas Under $50
The Fashion Bits
With all of the major sales this year, I’ve found SO many hidden gems on the internet. And when it comes to buying a Christmas gift under $50, who doesn’t want something absolutely fabulous that also fits the budget? If you’re a prime shopper with an Amazon Credit Card, you’ll get the added bonus of cash back for quite a few of these as well.
Personally, I’m adding these pearl earrings, this ear cuff and a few other shiny baubles to my wishlist. I’m also totally obsessed with the twist back studs. I am notorious for losing one earring for almost every pair and these stay put! There are a few pieces from this collection I own and have styled so be sure to check my Instagram if you’re looking out for outfit inspo. But I’m so excited about all the amazing budget friendly finds this year!
The Cozy Moments
Let’s be real – when the party is over (or maybe even before it starts), we’re ready for a cozy moment. I’ve personally got my eye on this coffee warmer because how I don’t have one at this point is mind blowing. If like me you also drink iced (decaf) coffee year round, this cold brew pitcher is a game changer. And I am always here for a candle to set the mood!
One of my favorite places to hunt down unique presents is Anthropologie (bonus points if you shop during Black Friday because they do a great sale). But this book is packed with the sweetest love stories which is sometimes just the moment I need. And if you really want to get cozy (and have an excuse to not move for 45 minutes), pop on the baby feet mask. I do this every few months to balance out the running and heels. It’s the best!
The Beauty Guru
Target is 100% the hero of the Christmas gifts under $50 – thank you Kristin Ess. I mean how cute are these hair accessories? I’ve been loving using little things to up style my hair while also keeping the heat to a moderate level. And this clip is absolutely calling my name.
It really feels like the beauty set selection is a bit more limited this year. But I love, adore and use my Westman Atelier & Rare Beauty products daily. The Cosrx products have become a winter essential for layering up the moisturizer. And I made the switch to the Ashley Graham self tanner a few months ago – it’s my new favorite. The color is fab and it fades well!
The Curious Cat
I’ve found SO many fun discoveries during my gift guide hunting. This water bottle that doubles as a small foam roller, a clock that is written out in words/doubles as art, this fun moon lamp and this astrological self care journal. The internet is filled with fascinating fun gifts!
I bought these wine glasses a few years after being influenced by Suzie. And packing cubes are a life essential everyone needs but somehow doesn’t have – I could not survive travel without them. Also, how fabulous is this electric whisk? I use mine daily but I love the duel head option so there’s definitely an upgrade in my future.
Family Fun
Okay so I’m obsessed with this lego flower bouquet. Is this not the cutest thing? I’ve never been a big lego gal but I would absolutely have a ball with this! There’s also a few new games that caught my eye this year – one of my favorite gifts to give and receive. But I’m most intrigued by the Murder Mystery on the Night Train.
The bath bomb maker feels like a great activity to do with your kids/younger family members or just as a way to reconnect with your inner child. And because I love an aesthetic moment, this updated version of monopoly is calling my name. Bonus points if you follow me on Instagram because you may recognize this game – We’re Not Really Strangers. The older I get, the more important to me it is to have intentional conversations. I love the depth to these questions as well as the connection that comes with having a real, deep conversation with another human.
Don’t forget, there’s still more gift guides to come. So make sure you’re subscribed to the Newsletter! As well as lots of holiday content coming to Youtube & Tiktok soon. I’m so excited to celebrate and share this time with you. Xoxo, Savvy
