Happy December and happy holidays! It’s officially the season for decorations, giving gifts, and spending time with the people you care about. This month we’re bringing you an extended list of our favorite things that we think make great gifts.
Claire thinks of giving gifts as buying special things that someone wouldn’t normally buy for themselves. With that in mind, she loves the Clarins Mask. This mask is life changing! It offers immediate results and is great before a night out. Nothing says luxe more than personalized stationary. How chic are these? Personalized stationery Aynsley actually ordered these for someone on her list after seeing this recommendation. They are so good! Claire loves forcing people that she loves to read her favorite books. It shows that she cares. Claire’s favorite book of the moment.
Rebecca loves gifting her tried and true life hacks and little bits of every day luxury. If you see her out and about you’ve seen her pulling her beloved Hulken bag behind her. They are lightweight, hold everything and make the daily schlep less painful. (Start with the medium size). Also, a reader, Rebecca gets her pages in by listening to audio books while she drives, cooks, or does anything mindless. Libro.fm is great because you can link the purchase to credit your favorite local book store. This may seem weird and overpriced but its the best hands-free iPhone Magsafe ring she’s found. Paired with a car phone mount its a great stocking stuffer.
Aynsley prefers a gift of experience, self care, or luxury and she loves to support a small business in the process. In Sacramento, she loves Asha Urban Baths. Asha is the perfect place to send someone for rejuvenation. Couple it with a bottle of wine for bonus points. The velvet napper from Bearaby is the most luxurious and earth friendly weighted blanket. It’s the perfect combination of cozy and chic. Art prints and originals make gorgeous gifts for people that you know really well! Purchasing art is very personal, but when done right it can be a show stopping gift. There are so many incredible artists to support, but a few good ones are Bailey Schmidt, Grown Wild Paper Co, and Grain & Knot for something exceptionally unique.
And that’s a wrap! Let us know what you’ve been loving and gifting. Follow us on Instagram for more of the day to day!
