Gifts for Her: a little something for every gal

This year I wanted to try to offer a variety of thoughtful ideas for every kind of gal I know. I wanted to pull a few ideas that are prefect for any gifting budget size as well a few stocking stuffer options...it's my opinion that a person can't go wrong with a thoughtful gift that tells a person you know their interests and makes them feels like the gift was bought with them in mind. Below I offer a little insight into why I selected each item (from left to right, top to bottom)...happy shopping and I hope this helps!

For the Fit Gal:

• Birdie Personal Alarm: if you have a gal in your life who is active and always out running, walking, hiking, or even walking the dog on her own, this personal alarm is ESSENTIAL. It's 130 decibel alarm, when triggered, helps ward off anyone who approaches with a simple pull of the pin. I carry mine with me anytime I'm out exercising alone and it brings such peace of mind. Added bonus, the carabiniere clip is perfect for key or for clipping your alarm to your person to keep it close but stay hands free.

• Adidas Running Shoes: any fit gal can always use a new pari of trainers. I chose these because they're neutral but still fun and I have loved these lightweight shoes for my own fitness activities for years. Unless she's given you a specific pair to shop for, these are a great option!

• Veja Sneakers: These are my tried and true day to day sneakers. Anytime we're traveling or doing a lot of walking these are my go-to sneakers. They're the perfect option when you're wanting to look a little more fashionable and a little less like you're coming straight from a workout. They get more comfortable with time and are real leather so they last forever.

For the Traveler:

• Gold Huggie Hoops: hear me out...earrings aren't necessarily the first item you think of when you think of a good gift for the avid traveler in your life BUT any experienced traveler probably has all the necessities at this point. When I travel I try to limit the amount of jewelry I pack which means I need options that are incredibly versatile. These slightly textured gold huggie hoops are the perfect option and an pair that are beautiful but timeless and can be worn with just about everything!

• Travel Jewelry Case: Another lesser thought of accessory for the traveler is a great jelewery case that will keep all her baubles safe and organized without taking up much space. This is also great because it's something that cane be easily thrown into a carry own for safe keeping. This one is compact and has a space earrings, rings, and necklaces/bracelets so it checks all the boxes.

For the Skincare Lover:

• Charlotte Tilbury Lip Set: I have yet to meet someone who this color doesn't look good on. It's a true classic and if you have a beauty lover you're shopping for, it's also a safe option because it's a cult classic in the beauty community. I wore it on my wedding day for a classic petal pink lip and the formula and fantastic. This gift set is such great deal and would make an excellent gift or stocking stuffer.

• Osea Skin Set: another great set that's not only a deal but a favorite amongst skin care enthusiasts. The formula is absolutely raved about and is perfect for this time of year when everyone's skin could use a little extra boost of moisture. This one has been on my person wishlist for a while now.

For the Cozy Gal:

• Plush Throw: (comes in SO many colors) we have two of these throws in our home and fight over who gets it each night. (Well one belongs to our sweet pup and he LOVES it lol). All the color options are beautiful or you can go neutral for a calming easy choice no matter who you're gifting it to. Great on it's own or combined with one of the other items below for a truly cozy gift.

• Ruffle Sock Trio: I know when we were kids, socks (and underwear) seemed like such a boring thing to receive but as an adult it's one of those items that are always useful. Jazz up the idea with a pair (or pairs) that has something fun: a ruffle, a favorite character, or meme, or even socks made for their favorite activities. This trio is so sweet and would make such a great stocking stuffer.

• Fleece Blanket: another tried and true favorite in our house. Definitely a more pricey blanket but the fleece only gets better with use and the size and patterns are luxurious enough to leave out on a couch in a formal living room but durable enough to take for a picnic or beach visit.

• Crewneck Sweatshirt: Favorite Daughter might be the brand name but I honestly think this would be such a great gift for any daughter or daughter-in-law in your life. It's simple but is bound to make her smile and I don't know a gal who doesn't love an oversized crewneck sweatshirt, especially this time of year.

• Spa Booties: I have another similar product from this same brand and use it ALL the time. These booties can be used hot or cold (freezer or microwave) and are infused with lavender to offer instant comfort and relaxation to the wearer. My feet are chronically cold and these sound AMAZING!

• Curly Slippers: I have this same slipper (slightly different fabric) from a few years ago and wear them every. single. day. In fact I loved them so much, I bought a backup pair to have on hand when my first pair wear worn through. They're simple but oh so cozy and they have a rubber sole making them durable for a quick run outside to grab the mail or round up the dog.

For the Entertainer:

• Floral Candlesticks: another item that's on my personal wishlist. I saw these in the store and just fell in love with them instantly. The while color makes them perfect for any tablescape but the texture and sculptural shape provide so much interest! These would be such a beautiful gift for any gal who loves to entertain.

For the Plant Gal:

• Grecian Goddess Planter: this planter is so much fun and is equal parts useful and beautiful. It would look stunning on a shelf or in a home and I know any plant gal can always use a new planter for her plant babies.

For her Desk:

• Pink Stone Frame: there's something to be said about a gift of a favorite picture in a beautiful frame. Especially now, with so many people working from home, a little something to help her snazz up her workspace in a thoughtful way is a great gift or stocking stuffer. This stone one is just so pretty!

• Gold Filigree Frame: similar to above, if not for her desk then for her nightstand or vanity. This filagree frame feels vintage and timeless.

• Mini Candle Set: I love this candle set every year! They burn incredibly, smell amazing, and feels so luxurious without paying the price of one of their full size candles (they're on the pricey side for sure!) I also love getting so many different scents...I think it's fun to burn them in order of least favorite to most but that's just me :)

For the Fashion Gal:

• Lug Sole Loafers: fashion gal can absolutely be some of the hardest to shop for. They're particular about when they like and style varies so drastically. If you have enough confidence to omit the gift card and buy her something physical, a trendy shoe is a great place to start. Out of all trendy shoes i've seen this year, this one feels most versatile and classic and I just love the dark rich color.

I'd love to hear what other ideas or gifts you're on the hunt for! Hope this helps make your holiday season just a little less stressful!
