It's that time of year again! The time when you want to give to everyone but aren't quite sure what to get. Here's a simple go-to list that is sure to have your friends and family thinking you're the best gifter out there.
Mom- the most important on the list because she deserves it all
1. Candles- Light up her day with a fresh new scent. Catalonia Candle is an amazing candle company that makes these babies in their kitchen and donates some of their proceeds to save the bees. (My favorite scent from them is Limoncello ;)
Cataloniacandle.com, $30
2. Her favorite CD- Michael Buble and John Legend are all great go-to's. (If she's not a CD girl maybe consider making her a playlist of favorite songs you share)
Target $17
3. Wine and chocolate- Let's be honest, NO ONE re-gifts these two things.
4. A massage/spa package- She's going to need a day to unwind!
Dependant on location, $40-$150
Dad- the most difficult on the list because he claims to already have all he needs
1. Home Depot- Remember when he needed that hammer or toolbox last time you were at Home Depot? No? Well if you do, grab it. If you don't, he can always use a gift card here.
2. Nice work clothes- Believe it or not your dad has to think about picking out a work outfit just as much as you do. Give him some more options! My dad is always looking at new dress shoes or slacks.
Ralph Lauren, Estate Rib Pullover, $50 Dockers, Macy's, $40 Ralph Lauren Button Up, Macy's, $70
3. Headphones- For a dad that's always on the go, he'll need a pair of really sturdy headphones when it's time to travel or even time to relax.
Best Buy, $100
4. A watch- Here's a staple piece that he needs and could always use a couple of.
Target, $270 Daniel Wellington St Mawes, $230
Brother- the easiest to shop for because he'll tell you exactly what he wants
1. Sports/concert tickets- Whether it be a band you two love or some hockey/basketball game, you'll not only cross him off the list but also get to spend quality time with him once the game rolls around.
2. New sneakers- You can't really go wrong with something he'll be able to wear a couple times a week.
Adidas Originals, $80
3. Coat- For some reason it seems that boys don't have nearly enough layers as they ought to. Let's keep our guys warm!
All Zara, $189
4. A Spotify Premium year subscription- He'll use it everyday!
Spotify, 1st 3 months 99c; $10 after
Best Friend(girl)/Sister- the one so much like you, it feels like you get to shop for yourself
1. Everyday earrings- Pretty much every girl has their go to studs.
Bloomingdales, $50
2. A fluffy scarf- She'll think of you every time she wears it, and it'll keep her snug all season.
Urban Outfitters, $39
3. A mug- I don't know about you but all of my girlfriends are mug hoarders. It's such a good opportunity to also make a set by giving her a favorite tea/coffee and candy canes or cookies. Etsy and TJ Maxx always have the best.
Etsy shop, LoveAliceLouise, $17
4. Perfume/cosmetics- Gift them either your signature scent or something you've heard them mention.
Glossier detox face mask, $22 Olympea Paco Rabanne, Sephora, $75
5. Slippers/PJ set- It's not the first thing that comes to mind when you think about what you want for Christmas, but it's something she'll always need and use.
Ugg 'Cluggette' Slipper, Nordstrom, $79
6. Mani/Pedi giftcard- Here's something you can do together while catching up on the holidays!
$10-$50
Best Friend(guy)- he's always there for you so now is a great time to show your thankfulness
1. Speakers- He's going to want these next semester when going back to school. Make sure he's set!
Jawbone mini JAMBOX, Bestbuy, $50
2. Comedy specials/ TV series- If he loves to watch Elaine's dance or Ross and Rachel's romance grab him an old fashion boxed season!
Amazon, $15
3. Video games- We all have at least one friend that knows the release date of all his favorites and has a list of what he wants. Ask him and you'll have a happy guy!
GameStop, $60
