Happy holiday season, one and all! This year, holiday travel is coming back and I am so excited to spend more time around my loved ones. Of course, quality time is a gift in itself, but it’s always a cherry-on-top to receive physical gifts as well. This year, I hope to show my love by giving thoughtfully chosen presents to everyone on my list. I hope this ultimate gift guide serves you as well, as we navigate this holiday season!
For whoever in your life is a fitness or wellness fanatic, there is no shortage of great gadgets and accessories to support their health goals. Whether they are a yogi or a runner, they will love any item that supports their health journey.

For the person who is always the host, consider a piece that will add a personal touch to their table or give them a wine subscription that takes one task off their hosting to-do list.

I guarantee the beauty lover in your life would love to try the Hermes nail polish, but wouldn’t necessarily buy it for themselves. And gifting a set is also a great way to let them experiment with multiple products.
2nd Row: Hermes Nail Enamel, Dyson Hair Straightener, Aesop Body Cleanser, Oribe Collectors Set
The person on your list who always knows what’s happening in the fashion world deserves a timeless item they will never retire from their wardrobe or a piece from a unique collaboration, like the recent collab between Gucci and Balenciaga. A statement coat from Saks Potts or a classic Burberry scarf is as timely as it is gorgeous – and you can never go wrong with a classic Celine crossbody.
2nd Row: Dior Coffee Table Book, Prada Loafers, Chanel Pearl Chain Necklace, Jennifer Behr Madison Headband
Every family includes the person in the kitchen, responsible for the mouth-watering smells in the air. Show them your appreciation for their impressive cooking skills with new cookware or extra-special ingredients.

There are those who have loved the benefits of the shift to work-from-home. Help them stay cozy with pajamas, candles, blankets, or even a heated foot massager!

Plenty of gadgets would make excellent gifts this year, whether you’re giving to a tech-wiz or someone who’s a little more challenged in that area. Any lovers of technology will be thrilled to get their hands on a VR headset or a drone. And there are practical solutions for everyone else, as well! Know someone who always loses their items? The Apple AirTags will be their friend.
2nd Row: DJI Mini SE, Loftie Alarm Clock, Tivoli Revive Bluetooth Speaker, Apple Airtags
Some of the best gifts take us away from our phones, tablets, and TVs. There’s a creative spirit in everyone, so why not gift a kit that will bring out the inner artist in your loved one?

Of course, we can’t forget the little ones in the family. For the kiddos, go out of the box with a guitar, a set that will match them with their bear (too cute!), or a set of thank you cards to guide them on a well-mannered path.
2nd Row: Manner & Co Thank You Cards, LoveEvery Pioneer Play Kit, Moon & Stars Capiz Wall Hanging, Red & Olive Mr. Beary (Bear)
Tweens and teens are a bit of a mystery to shop for. But the Gen-Z obsession with all things early 2000s should make you feel more comfortable. They’ll be overwhelmingly excited to get their hands on a pair of Doc Martens, a TikTok-famous Coach bag, or a mini polaroid camera they’ll use to make memories with.
2nd Row: Nintendo Switch Animal Crossing Edition, Restrospec Rift Drop Longboard, Chunks Allie Clip Pack, Instax Mini 9 Instant Camera
We couldn’t possibly forget our fur babies! After all, they’ve been such excellent companions to us while we’ve been at home. Remind them how much you love them with extra pets and a new toy or accessory.

Wishing you a wonderful holiday season full of love and joy!
