I can’t believe how quickly time has flown by… wasn’t it JUST August!? The past few months have been such a whirlwind filled with travel, family, and just about everything else under the sun. Not to mention trying to soak up every moment with baby Pierce as he approaches his first birthday. He’s growing so fast! As soon as I took the pumpkins and fall décor down, it was already time to start bringing the magic of Christmas into our home. As crazy as that felt, I was more than ready! The holiday season makes me so giddy and I couldn’t wait to get started. Something about those twinkle lights, the crisp winter air and ironically how warm the holiday season makes everybody’s hearts.
With Christmas sneaking up quicker than ever, what better time to bring back my holiday gift guides!? To kick it off I’m sharing a gift guide for her. This is always one of my favourites because I get to share all the amazing brands I’ve been obsessing over and most importantly emphasize self-care. Whether you’re picking out items to put on your own wish list, or getting ideas to treat those special ladies in your life (all the mamas out there, sisters, besties), these picks will have her feeling ready to take on the new year in no time!
This one is for all the new mamas out there who DEFINETLY deserve a little sparkle under the tree. I love this adorable Pandora charm complete with little baby booties, a bottle and footprints. This is such a great way to commemorate a milestone in every mama’s life. So cute! Black Friday sale $45!!
On the note of deserving a little sparkle under the tree… This sterling silver star bracelet from Pandora will be sure to light up her face as soon as she opens it. I love gifting jewelry because it carries so much meaning and can easily become a forever sentiment for somebody. Black Friday sale $75!
Saje product are ALWAYS a hit. This uplifting essential oil mist makes for a great add-on, stocking stuffer, or smaller gift perfect for coworkers. I’ve been carrying one of these with me on all my travels to refresh during and after flights.
For all the ladies in your life in need of some TLC, this Saje skincare set will put her on the path to glowing, dewy skin. It can be hard to keep your complexion looking its best in the winter months between holiday parties and the consequences of indoor heating. This set includes an exfoliating dry brush, a hydrating mist, and a skin-balancing elixir to get her back on track. Not to mention the super cute pouch it comes in! So great for travel.
If you didn’t already know, I’m completely obsessed with the dresses from Park & Fifth. They fit so well and always make me feel like my best self – even on days when being a working mama has taken its toll to the furthest extent. I love slipping into this dress and immediately feeling fresh and feminine.
This cookbook is the perfect gift for your fave foodie. It’s full of healthy, plant-based meals for every occasion. I’ve had so much fun flipping through its pages and getting inspired! Jillian and Tori did such a wonderful job curating inviting, delicious recipes that are somehow old-fashioned and modern at the same time.
Over the past year and a half I’ve been making a big effort to use as many clean beauty products as possible, especially when I was pregnant with Pierce. Nude by Nature’s products are 100% natural and have such a light and velvety finish. This set from Nude by Nature is a great place to start for anybody on your list looking to go green!
Christmas just got a whole lot cozier! Bed Bath & Beyond has so many amazing décor items but this UGG throw really caught my eye! I will probably be asking for one of these myself… (wink wink nudge nudge if Gary is reading this). The cream and gold fit in perfectly with my seasonal colour palette and make a luxe, plush addition to any living space.
If you know anybody who gets as excited about new bedding as I do….this is the gift for them. I love starting the new year off in fresh bedding, and this 100% organic cotton set makes changing the sheets an exciting chore!
This classic camel scarf is such a timeless winter wardrobe staple. Made from alpaca, it’s sustainable and super soft. I’ve been using scarves to change up my looks when travelling and also to keep me nice and toasty while visiting the east coast! Any lady in your life that could use a little injection of luxury will love this.
It’s important to have a tried and true wine to bring as a hostess gift come holiday season. My go-to has been this sparking white from Evolve Cellars. The label is beautiful and looks great at any table, and it has a light, refreshing profile that everybody seems to love! The definition of easy drinking… maybe too easy!?
Christmas can be a great time to update the home, and this plush velvet ottoman from Mobilia is so dreamy.
Shoes are a girl’s best friend!! For the fashion lover on your list, these statement shoes make for the perfect NYE pumps! No outfit planning necessary – these shoes are the outfit. Black Friday 20% off!!
I am such a mask fanatic! Masks are a super easy way to show yourself some love and refresh your complexion in a pinch. I’ve been putting mine on in the bath and just letting them do their thing. This set from Fresh has a few different types to try out and they are all amazing.
Well looks like my wish list is complete! Hopefully you’ve gotten some ideas for all the special women in your life that deserve to be pampered on Christmas. If you love some of these items for yourself, might I suggest sharing the link with your SO, partner or hubby? A little hint goes a long way. Speaking of SOs and hubby’s, make sure to check back in for my gift guide for him! Happy gifting!
