The Selfish Gift Guide
A girl's girl holiday wishlist
It’s time!!! The season has started, and I know we’re all frantically gearing up for the Black Friday madness, prepping those wishlists! Working on a separate post for that - but in the meantime, first and foremost, the gift guide is here!
I’m calling mine the ‘selfish gift guide’ for one reason - these are items that I would personally want / own myself & you know I always want the best for my girls. If I wouldn’t want it for myself, I’d never recommend it to you all <3
I’ve found that gift guides can sway a little more in a general direction, therefore, you’ll find that everything below is US - a little more curated towards an elevated home, personal style, and overall lifestyle.
I hope this guide helps, gives you ideas, or at the very least, a good scroll!
BLANKET SCARF - Let me start off by saying that this is currently 30% off as I type! Ok - so if this isn’t Olsen coded, IDK what is!? It is oversized, soft, and has the best drape. It’s giving Lenny Kravitz and I need it. Oatmeal has my heart - but the light grey may feel more “airy”.
TWO ROW PENDANT - Dorsey is genius. This pendant simply adds onto your existing piece, presuming you already own the MOSS or KATE necklace. It takes it from day to evening seamlessly & is a great gift! Anything sparkle-y is a show stopper.
VERDE CANDLE - Candle’s are the best gift - everyone needs or wants a new one. Yet, this is a statement piece that is not just a conversation starter, but acts as decor in your home in this stunning vessel. The green marble feels very holiday as well! P.S. it’s non-toxic, win win!
PERSONALIZED OLIVE OIL - This is an incredibly thoughtful gift to give, especially for a hostess gift, a co-worker / in-laws & so on. I’d imagine you try to keep the bottle after it’s empty and continue to refill it as it’s a chic bottle and anything personalized is treasured.
SPIRAL COASTERS - Ngl, I just got these for our new office & they are SO good. I’m not sure we’re actually planning to use them as they are sitting on a coffee table book looking pretty at the moment. Yet, they are cool, and Sophie Lou Jacobsen is an artist. Here’s another link as they sell out FAST.
CLOUD ROBE - I just got this at a PARACHUTE event last week. I have always eyed it but never committed - and now love. It is one of those get ready & do your make up, apply self tanner and chill, lounge robes that I didn’t realize I needed until now. Highly recommend! I’d suggest something like this for your bestie / mom.
COLOR-BLOCK BLANKET - I’m sorry but I am a BAREFOOT DREAMS girl for over 10+ years and I have yet to be flipped. I add another to the mix every holiday season and HELLO HOW CHIC IS THIS?!? The colors are superb. It’s a ‘neutral’ gift so could work for truly anyone, even the mans.
ABSTRACT EARRINGS - Calling all fashion girlies, the shape on these!?! I stan anything AUREUM and LILY20 gets you a discount always on their site.
IRON CANDLESTICKS - I own these, and I cannot emphasize enough how gorgeous they are. They are substantial as they are made of iron and they add the right amount of height to any console / dining table situation. One of those gifts you add on your own wishlist!
BOW RING DISH - Big Stephanie Dawn Matthias fan! Her ceramics are unique, and they make a personal gift for any gal in your life. Maybe an idea for a future bride?!
JAPANESE FLORAL SCISSORS - I bought these off of Gabrielle Gofis’ gift guide last year & I use them ALL THE TIME. I recently posted them and was blown up for them - so here you are! A stocking stuffer potentially?!
RALPH’S CUP - For your coffee connoisseur, a little novelty item that will add a little joy to their morning ritual.
KATE MOSS BOOK - OK, so this is something on my narrowed down personal wishlist. The book itself has a case like cover over it that displays beautifully anywhere, gorgina.
CHEESE KNIFE SET - I mean, how cute is this!? Again, a great hostess gift, or even a white elephant gift? Who wouldn’t love these!?
A subtle reminder that CLYQUE has gift cards & a VERY good drop coming soon! A great option for someone in your life that can be little tricky, and you want them to pick their own damn gift (LOL).
LIP BALM SET - I am a sucker for this pre-made sets for the holidays. An option for siblings, white elephant, stocking stuffer, co-worker, etc. Also the mini sizes come handy for traveling!
LEMON SQUEEZER TRIO - These may feel a little tchotchke but I love them. They are fun to place on a table set up when hosting. A small detail that goes far! Imagine them on a summer night, dinner al fresco? CUTE. Here is a link for just ONE, if your not into the set & an additional link for ALL THREE because they are almost sold out everywhere : /
MATCHBOX SLEEVE - Decor goals, enough said!
BISTRO CUTLERY SET - Another personal fave I am hoping Santa brings me - SABRE is timeless and this vintage feel will never go out of style! LILYA15 gets you a discount always!
LIP GLOSS CASE - Mirror pics just got cuter. And how handy is the gloss holder? This pair is finding its way to my sisters stocking for sure.
PALAZZO BOTTLE OPENER - A stunning addition to anyone’s bar cart. A little on the $$$ side, but it is a lifer piece and quality is unmatched.
VELVET JEWELRY CASE - I’ve seen this time & time again on MODA’S site and I keep circling back to it. What a beautiful piece, to store your most precious pieces that mean the most to you. It feels like a heritage item that you can eventually pass down.
ANGEL FLUTE GLASSES - Back with Sophie Lou Jacobsen, these flutes are gorgeous and a personal favorite. Another LINK in case these fly.
BAR SOAP - Guys, honestly this is what gifting is all about. Things you would NEVER buy yourself, lol! I’m thinking of your bff that has everything, or a Secret Santa within budget? Whose going to be mad when they open ANYTHING that says LOEWE?
COOLING EYE MASK - A lifetime supply would be nice! But for now, gift them to literally everyone?!?
UNIVERSAL HAIR BRUSH - If ever, now is the time to take the plunge on the brush I’ve been raving about. This is a great treat for your beauty obsessed friend(s).
WIDE LEG PAJAMA SET - I own these in white and I’ve never loved a PJ set more. The cut is actually cute on and the fabric is cloud like. I would highly suggest this for mom, in-laws, and yourself!
SHEARLING MOROCCAN SLIPPER - These were on my gift guide last year and I still stand by them! Warm, chic, and the quality is great. Sadly, my dog got ahold of them and I’m due for a new pair, but YOU need them. (LILYA15, just in case)
Happy Holidays Fam! xx LA
