Hey there lovelies! Christmas is approaching, meaning it is also the season to face the crowds to find that perfect gift for a loved one. As much as I love snuggling around a winter fire with my soft furry blankets and watching Christmas movies with my man, I for one love Christmas shopping. I love finding the perfect gift and knowing that they will absolutely love it.
Though, sometimes finding the perfect gift can be a true struggle. I've compiled a list of my top picks for your best gal pal of for the girl who has everything.
1) Jo Malone Candle - Jo Malone candles make the perfect luxury gift for that girl who has everything. They are a little pricier, so it is always a cute treat to burn one of these. The scents are to die for and makes a perfect hostess gift for the holidays too! I'm a sucker for packaging and Jo Malone never fails in this department. My favourite scents are Peony and Blush Suede and English Pear and Freesia
2) Chanel COCO Shine Lipstick - This is one for the beauty lover. If you do not particularly know what your receiver likes when it comes to lipstick, I think you can never go wrong with a neutral hydrating balm. I personally love the COCO Shine because it is like moisturizing lip balm combined with a wash of colour. It will give your gal pal a 'my lips, but better' kind of look.
3) PJ Set - As a girl who loves her soft textured fabrics and lounging at home, I think a cute PJ set makes the perfect gift. You can never have enough fun comfies to loge around at home in. Even I am guilty of wearing my christmas PJs all year long! La Vie En Rose has an amazing selection of lounge wear; they have everything to penguin slippers to fuzzy robes. Currently only $20CAD, I love this set and this set.
4) Gold/Rose Gold Office Supplies - This one is for the girl boss. For someone who spends a lot of time working out of her desk, I get inspired by the fun details that surround me. Cool trinkets are also a great conversation starter. Here are some of my favourites: Rose Gold Scissors (although you can opt for an $8CAD pair if you are lucky at Winner/Marshalls), Riffle Paper Co Notepads5) Coffee Table Book - I think coffee table book is great way to personalize a gift. For the fashion lover, you can opt for designer books like Tom Ford, Chanel: Collections and Creations, Chloe: Attitudes, Yves Saint Laurent, Gucci: The Making Of. You can direct your gift to the receiver's personality -- like architecture, home design, nature, etc. Coffee table books are a great designs piece and adds personality to a home.
6) Blanket Scarf - I think a thick blanket scarf is a good alternative for the classic glove/beanie/scarf combo. This is perfect for the college student or the girl on the go. Blanket scarfs are practical, versatile and can be a chic accessory to a winter outfit. I love ones for Aritzia; I love this one and this one.
7) Riffle Paper Co Stationary Set - I'm a sucker for cute stationary and Riffle Paper Co always has me covered. What I love about them is that they have prints for different iconic cities. This way you can totally customize it to suit your reviver, by picking a memorable city. I personally love new york and they have prints I could frame dedicated to the big apple (like this one and this). What I also love is that they have super cute memo pads to organize your busy schedule (like this one) and calendars/planners for the new year (like this and this).8). Henri Bendel Makeup Bag(s) - This one is for the girly girl and/or the Gossip Girl fan. Nothing is more festive for holidays than a Bendal's Christmas. Henri Bendel is the epitome of Christmas in New York. Their classic brown and white stripes are perfect for the girly-girl who has everything. Makeup bags are so versatile; of course they could house makeup, but when I travel, I love having little bags to separate my belongings especially my fine jewellery and tech cables. I love this option as well as this one. This one would be great for traveling. These are definitely on my Christmas wish-list!
Thanks for reading!
Sincerely,
