g's gift guide

To be completely honest, blog posts may be few and far-between during the holiday season. I truly think that this is a time to gather with friends and family, eat delicious food until you feel absolutely stuffed, and relish in relaxation - which is what I will be doing. I hope you plan on doing just that, too!

In light of this, I want to make your life a bit easier before the holidays by providing a list of inexpensive gifts for that person you just quite haven't checked off your list yet.

BaubleBar solo pendant necklace | This dainty little number is understated, chic, and a great price point. BaubleBar has been doing the 12 days of Christmas - with jewelry at $10, $15, and $20. Purchase in the next few hours to get it by Christmas eve!

Anthropologie Initial Mug | I love the gold detailing of this mug - it makes it look much more expensive than it really is!

Trader Joe's goodies | The oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, corn and chile salsa, bruschetta... and so much more are some of the amazing items you'll find at TJ's. Buy a friend, family member, or foodie some goodies, and I promise you'll get a lot for your money.

Spa-in-a-jar | Throw some lotion, a small candle, cozy socks, a bath bomb, and chapstick into a mason jar, and tie it with some burlap. Most women love beauty items, and this make-it-yourself gift set can be super inexpensive. I borrowed this idea from one of my favorite vloggers - Ingrid Nilsen. Check out her DIY gifts video!

Lush goodies | If you don't want to go all-out with the spa in a jar, you can easily grab one luxurious item from Lush. No matter your price point, Lush is sure to have something for everyone - even men. I particularly love the bath bombs and lip scrubs - both under $10.

Pajamas | I think these ones from Target are adorably classic, and perfect for snuggling up with a mug of cocoa.

Wine | Who doesn't love a nice bottle of vino? For around $10, you can get a pretty nice bottle of wine for someone who entertains, or simply enjoys a beverage with dinner.

And remember, gift buying isn't last minute until it hits December 24!

happy shopping!

  1. Those are adorable pajamas! I really need a matching set. And I have that Anthropologie mug in the original version, but the gold just looks too cute to pass up! Can't have too many mugs, right?
