Gift Guide For The Beauty Buff
0

Paris-Biologique-Recherer

Today’s gift guide is always one of my favorites, the top gifts to give the beauty buff on your list!

I always enjoy giving my family & friends makeup or skincare products I personally use on repeat. What’s great about this gift guide is that all of these products are at great price points.

Palettes are always a great go-to gift — my number one gift to give is the Urban Decay Naked Eye Palette!! Highly, highly recommend for your mom, sister, friend or co-worker! What I love most about giving the gift of Urban Decay is that they have a wide variety of palettes to choose from all at great prices! Other palettes on my radar include his Nars Duo Eye Shadow and this Nars Highlighting Cheek Palette!

Other products that are currently in my makeup bag include that would make great stockings stuffers include this Charlotte Tilbury Eyes To Mesmerize Cream Eyeshadow,  this Ouai Matte Pomade (I’m hooked!!) and a variety of Charlotte Tilburry Matte Revolution Lipsticks. If you’re not familiar with Charlotte Tilburry, I started using her products last year and have been pleasantly surprised with her entire line.

What are some of your favorite beauty gifts to give? Happy Shopping! Xo. Lauren

Stocking stuffers are my favorite gifts to give each and every year. They don’t have to be expensive and can easily be personal! Add a monogram to linen napkins, a canvas tote bag or a cosmetic case for simple but thoughtful gift!

Shopbop and Tuckernuck are two of my favorite retailers to shop for stocking stuffers under $50 and $500 dollars. If you have a design enthusiast on your list, take a peek at this Boxwood Ball Topiary Tree, these classic cocktail napkins, this monogrammed marble cheese board, or this enamel ice bucket.

If you have a beauty buff on your list, my number one pick is the Urban Decay palette for $54 dollars! Or the other palette I have on my wish list currently is the Charlotte Tilbury Stars-In-Your-Eyes Palette. I’ve been seriously loving all of Charlotte Tilbury products as of late.

Other great gift ideas include — the holiday nest candle, these kate spade stud earrings and this monogrammed clutch. What are some of your favorite gifts to give each year? Happy shopping!

2018 Gift Guide Series — The Top Gifts For Her
0

Monika-Hibbs-Holiday-Mantel

My 2018 Holiday Gift Guide Series is here!! This is my 7th year (!!) rounding up the best holiday gifts to give (and get) this holiday season. Today’s gift guide is dedicated for the top gifts for her! From Chanel loafers to dainty diamond jewelry (this diamond necklace is a favorite), below is a mix of classic wardrobe staples you can wear on repeat all year long. Be sure to check back every day, sign up for my weekly newsletter or follow me on Instagram to stay up-to-date with my latest holiday content!

One. Diptyque candles are my top gift to give each and every year — Roses and Baies are my personal favorite scents. What I love most about giving these candles is that you can shop the small version for $35 dollars or the larger version for $65 dollars. For a gift exchange last year, I picked out this Diptyque mini candle set for $78 dollars!

Two. For the beauty buff on your list, I bought this La Mer Mini Set for my mom last year which she loved! The price point is just right under $100 dollars.

Three. I met Dana Rebecca over 5 years ago when I was living in Chicago and had a chance to visit her showroom. These huggies are on my Christmas list as well as this bar pendant necklace — so many of my best friends has this in rose gold!

Four. Classic pearl studs from David Yurman.

Five.  A Michelle watch is another jewelry staple that is perfect for your everyday collection.

Six. My girlfriend has these Chanel loafers and they are so pretty. I also like that they are different than the classic ballet flats. You can shop them on The Real Real.

Seven. The Gucci Disco Bag — I own in black but love in the red, too!

Eight. A girl can never go wrong with adding a Barbour jacket to your winter wardrobe!

Nine. A camel cashmere scarf perfect for winter travel.

Ten. Another item on my Christmas list, Le Labo perfume in Santal 33.

Eleven. Gucci loafers or mules for work are a must.

Twelve. I’ve noticed many of my girlfriends have started accessorizing with oversized clutches and absolutely love the look.

Thirteen. Last but not least, a moisturizing face mask for these cold winter months will not disappoint.

2017 Gift Guide Series | For The Jet Setter
0

You guys know how much I love to travel so putting together travel gift ideas for the jet setter on your list is always so fun for me! Over the past few years, I’ve learned a thing or two about my absolute “must haves” whenever I get on an airplane or train — many of which would make for great stocking stuffers or bigger gift ideas!

I personally like to travel with a carry-on suite case to avoid any delays that might come with checking a bag. Mark and Graham has come out with a new Terminal 1 Carry-On that is just as durable as it is chic. What I love most about giving this carry-on as a gift is that you can make it personal. Mark and Graham has a wide variety of monogram and color options to choose from! I would opt for a navy with white monogram, who’s with me?

I can’t travel without my back up external Mophie charger. Mophies come in a wide variety and colors. I personally like the XL version which provides up to two full charges for your iPhone – essential when you’re on a long flight! Make sure to get this version as I’ve noticed Amazon put several refurbished options on their website which can get confusing! In order to keep all of my chargers in place, I also like to travel with this leather wire roll up. One of my biggest pet peeves is when I have all of my chargers loose in my purse!

Whenever I travel, I like to be as comfortable as possible. This means cashmere pants (a new discovery for me!), APL sneakers (seriously obsessed with), and a comfortable cardigan because I’m always cold on planes and trains.

Other great travel gift ideas include this passport case, this worldwide travel adapter, these seersucker travel bags or this weekender which would make for a great gift for her, or him! Last but not least, I always like to take a peek at Shopbop’s travel accessories whenever I’m searching for travel gift ideas since they have a wide variety!

I’ve linked to all of my previous gift guides below. Happy Shopping! Xo. Lauren
