gift list!
Ok, so I know Christmas is literally next week, but if you’re anything like me I hate to give a gift just to give one. So if you’re still stuck brainstorming and want to give a thoughtful gift even if it’s after the holiday you’ve come to the right place. I’ve gathered all my favorite things to keep you and your friends chic. My non negotiables as a twenty something girl are listed below. Get them for yourself or gift them, I don’t care but just know once your frontal lobe is developed you need these items.
Mark and Graham Embossed Card Holder:
Nothing says sleek and sophisticated like a card holder. Yes, that means you will have to get rid of your giant wallet that holds mile long CVS receipts but you will adjust I promise! This one linked is my personal favorite but you can get personalized card holders pretty much anywhere! Mark and Graham quality has never failed me. They have multiple color selections and you can get it personalized for under $60.
Officine Universelle Buly Personalized Comb:
Ok, you’re obviously realizing a pattern here with the personalized gifts… nothing says thoughtful like a personalized gift. It just adds an extra wow factor. I feel like the general population is obsessed with hair health right now and having a comb that doesn’t damage your hair is key!! We’re keeping personalized combs in our bags in 2025. Bonus- these come with a little felt case so they are kept safe.
Friend of Mine Night Cap Cards
Now that you’ve graduated college you need to graduate raunchy card games… cough cough Cards Against Humanity. This set has 59 cards to start conversations with your besties. Kenzie Elizabeth who started Friend of Mine has multiple different conversation card sets that would be perfect for anyone on your list.
Yes, another personalized gift but just trust me. I have gone through probably every planner on the market and this Papier Weekly Planner is by far my favorite. Papier offers many different designs to fit any personality, but you can always play it safe with a leather cover + initials.
I’m gonna hold your hand when I say this, it’s time to retire the sport band. You cannot be finding the man of your dreams in your cool outfit stunted by your white (probably stained brown) sport band. This Apple Watch band is literally $18.00 on Amazon. I am going on 3 years with mine and it doesn’t tarnish. I eat, breathe, sleep, sweat, swim and everything else with this watch on. It’s time for you to look after your friends and upgrade them!
Waking up early single handidly changed my life (full blog on that later). To anyone who rolls their eyes and thinks they could never get out of bed before 7, trust me you can. The Hatch helps tremendously. I am on my second Hatch and feel like I should be sponsored by them at this point. I love it most for waking up because I have it set to start getting brighter 30 minutes before my alarm, most days my body naturally wakes up from the light before the alarm even goes off. Its so peaceful.
Xoxo,
