My favorite time of the year is officially here! I love the holidays more than any other time. If we could have, we would have gotten married around the holidays. I love it! After the Black Friday rush dies down I love going out and browsing around for holiday gifts. One of my favorite feelings is knowing how much someone will like a gift. It really is the best. Growing up when I would holiday shop, without fail, I would end up giving everyone their gifts when I got home. I had such trouble waiting for the big day!
I have spent this Black Friday snuggled up at home browsing around online. I have a hard time looking for Black Friday deals because I feel so much of it is geared toward the technology industry and I don't usually shop there for gifts. Although this year we did snag an iPad for my dad with a Black Friday deal! (Yay!) I don't really like dealing huge crowds, hunting for parking spots, and making gift decisions on the spot "because they are a good deal." I like to take my time and wait for the right gifts to jump out at me. I started a bit of my holiday shopping online today, and I am so excited for what I found. Here are some of my favorite gifts this year!
For Moms/Sisters/Girlfriends:
-I love personalized gifts! I think they are unique and thoughtful. For my personalized gifts I've been looking at May Books notebooks and note cards. The zebra print is to die for!
-There are also a lot of great options at Anthropologie.
- This necklace is great for the glamour girl in your life.
- I love giving their kitchen gadgets to friends. These totally stole my heart!
- These chalkboard storage jars would make a great gift for new homeowners.
- This candle smells great and looks just as great on a vanity once its empty.
-The Kate Spade Gift Guide is always some place I find something for every lady on my list. (There are also a few things on here I'm hoping to find under the tree... 1 / 2 / 3 / 4
For Husbands/Boyfriends/Dads/Brothers:
- This year I went to The Art of Shaving. What a great place! I had never thought of looking at luxury shaving products for men! Women get tons of luxe beauty products, why shouldn't men get to pamper themselves in the bathroom too? I got my husband a great mid-size kit to start him off with. The lather that he will get with a brush is pretty amazing! If he likes it I can start to get him more pieces and better brushes. I hope he likes it!
- For my brother I grabbed some flannels from the Gap and these hilarious boxers.
- The men in my life are very outdoors-y and so my favorite place to look for their gifts is REI.
I hope that your Black Friday is relaxing and crowd free. I think we are pondering a trip to target...yikes!
