Christmas Gift Ideas!

SO Christmas is just ONE WEEK away!

 

I've been shopping here and there for a few weeks now, but I still  have a few people on my list!  IF you're in the same boat as me, I thought it might be helpful to see what I've got/am getting people. SO here are a few ideas I've done, past and present!

 

For guys - THE HARDEST TO SHOP FOR.

 

I am by NO MEANS an expect when it comes to guy stuff.  HOWEVER I usually can think up a thing or 2.  Here are some ideas I've used for my bf, dad, uncle, boss etc.

 

Electronics - an Ipad, Ipod, GoPro.  These are all usually big winners (although a tad pricey).  BUT if you have the moola, you really can't go wrong with any of these.  IF your guy already has these things, get them some accessories!  A new ipad case, ipod armband for the gym, sporting attachments for the GoPro, etc are all good little add ons.

 

Watches - You could either do a dress watch for work (like a MK), casual wear (like the GShock) or a FitBit (for exercising).  These are all good!

 

Apparel - Warm sweaters always seem to be a hit.  I've had alot of success at: LL Bean, Patagonia, Banana Republic and Express.  These are all nice but still somewhat affordable - especially if there is a sale or a coupon code!  ALSO sports gear is a no brainer.  Jerseys, sweatshirts, snow hats.  If they're into any team at all this is an easy win.

 

Hobby stuff - Golf balls/accessories, Whiskey, Video Games.  Whatever your guy is into, just embrace it for the holidays! Tis the season right?

 

NOW ONTO THE LADIES.

 

Being a girl myself - girls are super easy to shop for!

 

 



Makeup/Bath/Body/Hair - Ulta and Sephora has all kinds of holiday sets!  This year I was really into the Philosophy sets - they were super cute and I think it's a brand anyone would like.  Any kind of contour, lip kits, mascara sets, etc.  ALL WINNERS. 

 

Cute barware is always fun! Target, Homegoods etc has all kinds of super cute stemless wine and champagne glasses that are inexpensive.  Match these with a bottle of champagne and you have a gift that feels special but doesn't break the bank.

 

Homegoods and Hobby Lobby have ALL KINDS of random odds and ends!  Cute jewelry dishes, wall art, notebooks, travel coffee mugs, candle sets etc.  None of these things are super unique - HOWEVER when they are printed with an inspirational quote that is Instagram worthy - they are super cute little gifts!

 

And lastly - prob my favorite thing to give - memberships! Birchbox, Etsy and Glossybox are all cute makeup box services for just $10-15 a month (so a 3 month membership is a fun gift).  Also even practical memberships are good (Fitness Class, Costco, etc).  It sounds random, but trust me your grandma will love hitting Costco every weekend.

 

Hope this gives you some IDEAS! Because remember, the most important thing about the holiday is of course spending time with your friends and family presents. ;)
