2020 Gift Guide Series | 15 Beauty Gift Ideas
0

Our gift guide series continues with top beauty gift ideas for the beauty buff on your list!

And just in case you missed it, don’t forget to check out my earlier gift guides for: Her, Him, the Hostess and some of my favorites from years past on my holiday page right here.

PLUS you can take a peek at the best Black Friday sales you can continue to shop all weekend! There are SO many amazing sales happening right now including Shopbop — take 20% off your order of $200+! My go-to is White+Warren cashmere every time. I also recommend taking a look at their outerwear selection — I’m very into Woolwich right now. And their jean selection/brands like Mother, Agolde and Good American.

Other must-shop sales this weekend: Tuckernuck, Nordstrom, Saks and Sephora.

Sephora currently has a TON of great gift sets, offers & discounts on some of the most popular products in the beauty industry. My personal recommendation that I’m telling all of my girlfriends about is that if there is ONE beauty gift that is a must-buy this year whether for yourself your mom or sister — it’s the Dyson Air Wrap.

Yes, it is absolutely expensive coming in at $549 which is on sale (!!) at Sephora right now — however — it’s 100000% worth it!!!!!!! I’m not one to spend a ton of time doing my hair on a day-to-day basis which is why I love headbands so much. Once I tried one of my girlfriends air wrap earlier this fall, I fell in love with it instantly and would not stop talking about it.

The Air Wrap comes with 6 different attachments including the blow dryer so no matter if you like to curl your hair, prefer a round brush or a flat brush for a quick blow dry, the air wrap provides a ton of styling options. My other favorite feature is that it speeds up the drying process. And who doesn’t love a time saver? Anyways, go get the air wrap – I know you will love it. 🙂

Other beauty products on my radar this year: Artis Elite Mirror Ten Brush Set, NuFace Body and basically everything from Charlotte Tilbury.

Happy shopping!! Xo. Lauren

Hostess Gift Ideas

We’re moving right along through our 2019 gift guide series!! Today’s gift guide is dedicated to the holiday hostess.  Whether you need a small gift for a good friend or an acquaintance this holiday season, below are some of the best holiday hostess gift ideas you could easily wrap in cellophane, tie a bow around & voi-la! You will have a great hostess gift wrapped and ready to-go in no time. A few of my personal favorites for the hostess include:

  • This white marble wine holder — I swear I use this every time we have friends over or I’ll style it with a candle.
  • I love this beautiful silver coaster set
  • A diptqyue candle is always a good idea.
  • And I learned this from my mom — buy holiday hand soaps/lotion in bulk before the holiday season so you always have a little something to bring if you’re in a pinch.

What are some of your favorite holiday hostess gift ideas? See more from my 2019 Gift Guide Series & beyond down below! Xo. Lauren

Decorating With Plaid - Plaid Gift Ideas

There’s nothing more festive than giving holiday plaid gifts to your loved ones during the holiday season. From Christmas pajamas to plaid loafers, so many retailers have launched their very own holiday plaid collections you can shop leading up to Christmas. 

Rounding up the best plaid gifts in my gift guide series each year is always fun — mostly because my mom and I are obsessed with anything that includes a tartan plaid! If you combined our collection of plaid blankets, you would think we were crazy. P.s. If you’re looking for where to shop for tartan plaid blankets or throws check out this blog post right here. We highly recommend a few of our go-to retailers including: L.L. Bean, Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Pendleton ( I have this one!), MacKimmie & Co which is based in Lenox, Massachusetts and Home Goods for more affordable plaid blanket options.  

Outside of decorating with plaid, you can of course dress in tartan plaid! Both Mark and Graham and J.Crew continue to release plaid gifts each season that are stylish and affordable! Take a peek at this year’s must-haves:

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
