Sharing my 2024 kids gift guide! All our favorite things for babies and kids, trusted toys and gifts that we love the most!

I say it every year, but this might be my favorite year of the kid’s gift guide yet!

Now that I have a 9 year old, a 7 year and a 3 year old, I feel confident in what my kids LOVE and enjoy playing with the most. This list hasn’t changed a lot this year – in fact, many things stay on it as Emilia moves into playing with some of Max’s things and Jordan moves into Emilia’s. One thing I left off the list because it’s so extensive: LEGOS! Max and Emilia are absolutely obsessed with Legos and build constantly. I’ve listed a few of the big faves, but that’s it.

Since I have a variety of ages, I broke this into sections below – you can find toddler & preschool gifts, little kids and tween gifts.

2024 KIDS GIFT GUIDE

Preschool & Toddler

Toniebox audio player. This is the best best best gift for little ones. Think all of their favorite music – and they can control it. 

Super Smalls dress up shoes. We love everything super smalls. Emilia has SO much and even at 7, still play with it and dresses up. 

Little People Wicked characters. I was so excited to find those. Jordan got them a few weeks ago and he hasn’t put them down since.

Little People Barbie Pet Playset. I love this set that is more manageable than the huge house.

Hot chocolate plush toy. Jellycat everything is our favorite.

The Nugget play couch. I can’t sing the praises of the nugget enough. We have three!! The kids build forts, playsets, etc every single day. It’s the best. 

Nesting table & stool set. These are my favorite table/chair sets for young ones. I still have one in my kitchen today. 

Magnatiles construction set. One of the best lifetime gifts ever. Every age adores these.

Melissa & Doug Take Along train. Jordan got this last year for Christmas and he still loves it. It’s out almost every day. 

Zingo. Most played game in our house, period. 

Pogo foam jumper. My older kids got these at age 3 and they have continued to be a fave!

Glow in the Dark rock painting. We are also very big into arts and crafts. This is fun. 

GeoSafari Kidnoculars. Each kid has a pair of these and take them on nature walks. 

Magnatiles downhill duo. More magnatile car fun!

Dress up play armoire. I got this for Emilia’s dress up clothes when we moved. It’s so wonderful.

Electronic plush doggy. If your kids want a dog but like me, you don’t know if you can keep one more living thing alive at this time in your life, this is for you. 

Princess tent. We have used these for YEARS. Kids are always obsessed. 

Wooden magnetic puzzle. All 3 of my kids love this. It is so satisfying. I keep it in the car for Jordan to mostly play with it. 

Kinetic sand ice cream set. I don’t mind kinectic sand and this is a favorite set.

Sorel waterproof snow boot. If you live in a cold climate… can’t beat the best! 

Car Road Tape. This is a repeat from last year because it’s a life saver. On a rough day, I pull this tape out and place it all over the house. The kids instantly have a road/race track/etc and LOVE it.

My Big Wilmmelbooks. We love books in this house, but these are the ones my kids can get stuck in for a good while. It’s almost like a where’s waldo, but with scenes. We have every version, we always travel with them on road trips and they are really fun!

Doona Liki Trike. The Doona car seat was by far the best purchase I made with Jordan. Last year he got the trike and it’s awesome!

Melissa and Doug One Stop Shop. Another item that we bought years ago for Christmas – both kids still love this. There is tons of imaginary play that goes on in our toy room, and this shop is a huge part of it.

Melissa & Doug Cool Scoops ice cream set. We have older versions of this. One of the biggest hits in our class.

Melissa & Doug Grill & Pizza Oven set. Thinking about this for Jordan this year. All three kids still love play food.

Little Kids

Yoto mini player. Emilia has had this for a few years and has used it DAILY ever since. It is a game changer. Most used item in our house!

Super Smalls leopard gloves. Can’t resist anything leopard. 

Glitter boots. Or let’s be real – anything glitter!

Cozy winter socks. She also loves cozy socks.

Black sparkle wool coat. This is her fancy coat for the second year running. It’s so warm and excellent quality. 

Rainbow gem bracelet. Super cute and pretty!

Iridescent heart jewelry box. I loved trinket boxes as a kid. 

Crystal bow hair clips. These are SO pretty in person. I already bought them and may get a second set. 

Iridescent stars Ugg boots. We get a pair of uggs every other year here. The stars this year!!! 

Flip sequin pin board. This is SO fun for bedroom. 

Labradoodle critter pillow. Each of my kids wants one of these this year. 

Butterfly wedge pillow. And this is a very fun reading pillow. 

Armoire jewelry box. A classic, timeless gift for the top of the dresser. 

Hard side kids luggage. My kids are obsessed with their own luggage. 

Rainbow loom set. Max and Emilia LOVE making bracelets. This is so fun. 

Kids smart watch. Both of my older ones have this and love it. It has games, etc. 

Holiday barbie. Can’t beat the classic. Even though I didn’t love barbies growing up, the holiday ones always got me. 

Type Set Co Boards & Letters. The kids got these for Christmas last year. The letters are SO pretty!

Illustrated Harry Potter Books. Max got these years ago and he and Eddie read them all. Now Emilia’s into them.

Tweens

Kids Kindle. Max got one last year for Christmas and uses it daily. He never goes a day without it!

Wall neon name light. I love these for the kids. So fun. 

Harry Potter sky projector. A splurge for their bedroom. Will last for years!

My 2024 parents gift guide is perfect for so many, including grandparents and in-laws! A bunch of classic, timeless and useful gifts here for the people who have everything and don’t want to collect junk.

2024 parents gift guide

This gift guide is my lifesaver.  This is for the people who have everything – the ones that don’t want to accumulate more things. Parents and In-laws are so tricky to buy for so I’ve listed some of my favorites below. Leave your ideas if you have them too!

2024 Gift Guide for Parents & In-Laws

Mini blender plus. I love a mini blender for dressings and sauces. 

Jeni’s pint club subscription. This is one of my favorite things to gift too!

My 2024 women’s gift guide is here! All my favorite things in one place that I love so much.

This gift guide is filled with TONS of my favorite things. The bags, shoes, pajamas and year-after-year items I use. You’ve seen and heard of a lot of them throughout 2024 as I’ve shared them in my favorites, but these are the best of the best of what I am loving! I’ve also included a few splurge items that I personally own and love and find to be worth it!

Of course these gifts can be for anyone! These are my personal picks out of everything I have loved over the years.

2024 GIFT GUIDE FOR HER

Lola blankets. This is my #1 gift this year. I’ve already bought six this year for gifts! It is the softest warmest faux fur blanket I’ve found. It’s not heavy (in a good way) and it’s almost stretchy. I LOVE IT. A caveat: never pay full price, there is always a discount code! I recently used cozy50 to get 50% off. It’s not my code, but just one I found!

2025 Calendar. I use this desk calendar every year. It’s my favorite one. 

Le Pliage cosmetics case. Another huge winner for me when it comes to gifts. This can be a little catch all pouch kept in your purse but it’s also easy to grab and go when running errands. I’ve also seen people transform them into crossbody bags too. 

Book Lover’s advent calendar. Eeeeep! I just ordered this as a gift… for me. 

Lululemon Align Pants. You cannot go wrong with these. They have been uniform for years. Nothing compares.

Mildliner Markers. These are my favorite to use in my planner.

Hotel Lobby votive candle set. Some of my favorite candles – the scents are so elevated, warming and unisex. Excellent gift for a home decor lover. 

Think Rolyn little runway sling. This is my favorite sling bag. I have multiple colors. It can fit a pack of wipes and a standard sized bottle of water. It’s awesome. 

Monogrammed Journal. Cutest for the pen and paper lover!

Apple watch band. I love my apple watch but hate the band options. This one is so good.

Primrose vanity mirror. Another fave from last year. A mini version of the viral mirror. 

Insulated lunch bag. Perfect for work lunches or traveling snacks. 

Cherry drop earrings. Loving these. They are SO cute. 

Silk Pillowcase. This is something I use every single day. I think it’s a great gift! I even travel with mine if I go somewhere.

Healthy hair brush. This for a scalp massage is incredible.

Laptop Lap Desk. My parents got me this last a few years ago and I LOVE IT.

Hot and Cold foam froth maker. Makes cold foam! Sign me up!

Eberjey slouchy pajamas. This is my favorite lounge set that doesn’t 100% look like pajamas. The red is my fave. 

Moonlit Pajamas. This is something else I share every single year. BEST PAJAMAS EVER! So stretchy and soft and comfortable. I live in these. I love every version: the nightgowns, the button down PJs, the v-neck top ones.

Ugg Mini Boot. I will always profess my love for Uggs despite how ugly they can look. They are SO good for cold weather here. I get a new black pair every few years after I wear the heck out of mine. I got the black short ones last year and love them.

Vibrant color scarf. Always love a good anthro scarf. 

MZ Wallace sequin micro hobo bag. I saw this and just about died. The sapphire color is unreal! MZ Wallace bags are such excellent quality. I need this. 

Hoka Bondi 8 running shoe. No brainer – the best running, walking, living shoe ever. 

Stripe cashmere sweater. Looks so much more high end than it is! 

Nike Phoenix Fleece hoodie. Current favorite sweatshirt. It’s so cozy.

Simple Modern 40oz tumbler. I have loved the Stanely tumbler for years, but this one has won out. It’s almost leak proof, so much sleeker, lighter and more economical. I adore it.

Fluffy Hotel Robe. If you prefer a fluffy hotel-like robe, I’m in love with this one. The tie dye on the edges is so cute without being obnoxious too. The kids have matching ones!

Tory Burch card case. I’ve used one for years. Best quality ever. 

Le Specs Air Heart Sunglasses. My go-to sunglasses for over five years. Adore them.

Small puffy heart earrings. I love these so much. They are a bit of a splurge but a nice way to get a timeless piece on that is on trend right now. 

Puffy heart locket. And I locket!! I have one with the kids in it. I love it. 

Handpainted taper candles. Most beautiful candles. Pair with candles to gift! 

Luster glass butter dish. I want this for my own kitchen. 

1000 Record Covers book. Coffee table books make such a great gift. This one is fab! 

Monogrammed playing cards. Got two of these for gifts this year. How fun. 

Oversized cashmere wrap. This j crew wrap has been around for years and I’ve gifted it many times. It’s excellent. There is always a sale on these too, so don’t pay full price. 

Mini hair clip set. Can’t live without them! I also lose them often… so would love to be gifted more. 

Velvet jewelry box. Adore this for travel. 

Candy cane checkers set. Super fun. This would also be a gorgeous decor piece. 

Flume electric lighter. SO chic and necessary. 

Chunky knit bow beanie. I love a fun beanie for cold weather. 

Bubble monogram earrings. Cutest initial bubble earrings! 

Condiment set with spoons. This is stunning. I added it to my own list. 

Wood serving bowl. Another beautiful kitchen piece too. Great for someone who doesn’t cook too – can just use it for salads! 

Veronica Beard valentina sneaker. These are a higher end item, but when I say I love them… oh my gosh. I’ve had a pair for 2 years, I still wear them constantly and they are in great condition. They are slip on with a slight platform. Adore them! 

New Balance 327 sneakers. I also still love these sneakers. The shape is just so good and they are flattering on the food!

Watercolor workbook

Faux fur bow slippers. Slippers are often the perfect gift! 

Olukai slide slippers. These are my favorite “working” slippers that I wear around the house. They have SO much support. 

Ugg disquette slipper. And my favorite wear out of the house slippers.

Beaded city pouch

Hulken bag. I use this almost every week. I’ve gifted many of them. They are wonderful for toting groceries, travel, moving, etc. Even just organizing the house or cleaning up!

Higher Dose sauna blanket. We both use my higher dose sauna and pemf mat weekly. I could not live without them. This is a wellness investment that has totally changed the game for us. 

Crystal pave hoop earrings. Prettiest pave hoops! 

Varley Vine pullover. This is a classic that looks good with sweats or jeans. I’ve had a few for years and they get constant wear. 

Sam Edelman Tote. This is giving goyard vibes and I am here for it – I don’t think I could ever pay $ for a goyard tote. I love how these look almost the same without being too copycat-ish.

Beis carry on suitcase. We now have two and I just ordered a third for our family. Very happy with the quality of these – and we have Tumi suitcases! It’s nice that these ones don’t break the bank like those do.

Canon Mini Photo Printer. Not only do I love this, the kids love it! I print out lots of pictures from my phone, which print on a sticker. You can add the pics to your planner, calendar, cards, etc. I stick pictures of Jordan in the kids’ backpack!

Scout Tote Bag. Everyone, seriously everyone, needs a scout bag. They fold flat and take up no space. They have a zipper and hold SO much. You can transport anything in them. They are waterproof! Absolutely perfect. I love these for teacher gifts with a gift card.

My 2024 men’s gift guide is here! All of my favorite things to gift Eddie or the guys in my life – and of course so many items that I would love too! This list is versatile and so good!

Everything I’m loving this year for my 2024 men’s gift guide – and everything Eddie is loving too! This is a mix of what I’ve bought him in the past and what he is getting this year. So much to love! Of course these gifts can be for anyone (I want many things on the list below!), but I know all the guys in my life would loooove this stuff. And they are always just so hard to buy for.

There are also some great ideas in my gift guide under $25.

2024 MEN’S GIFT GUIDE

Moonlit pajamas. These are my absolute favorites and now they have them for men!! I can’t even handle it.

Jersey knit pajamas. The eberjey ones are also excellent – especially if you don’t want the buttons down the front.

Tommy John second skin pajama pant. These pants are also the GOAT when it comes to lounge. 

Watch box. A must have for the watch lover in your life. 

Cold Plunge. This is what I got Eddie for his birthday this year! Such a great gift.

Wunder Puff vest. The lulu vests are the best ones out there. I love both men and women’s version. So warm, puffy but not gigantic.

Vuori performance joggers. These are so comfortable and soft. I got them for Eddie for his birthday and he loves them.

Aura Photo Frame. I gifted this six times in 2021 – it is incredible. I gave it to Eddie for Father’s Day and he has it at work. You upload pics to the app and they appear on the frame – multiple people can do it so it’s great for grandparents too!

Stanley backpack cooler. We have this and I just got it for my dad for his birthday. I love how spacious it is, how light it is to carry and that you can fit 2 large stanley’s on the sides! 

Long charging cord. We have about a million of these. Always needed.

Whoop fitness tracker. I got this for Eddie a few years ago and he LOVES it. He has worn it nonstop for years. He loves getting different bands too.

Matchbook prints. Adore these. I got a few for our new house!

Super Smart beverage fridge. This is brilliant – I want it for our man cave basement. 

Shark Cordless Handheld Vacuum. This handheld vac is the BEST. We have it and love it.

Spice Rub Library. I love getting Eddie one of these every few years. He uses it to make his lunches – whether it’s chicken or vegetables, etc.

Solostove Bonfire Pit. I got one of these for my Dad. We love it!

Solostove Tabletop Pit. This is awesome for small spaces too.

Bondi 8 running shoes. These are the running shoes Eddie uses on both the treadmill and outdoors.

Watch roll. This travel watch roll is excellent.

Philips automatic coffee machine. For the coffee and espresso lovers! This is just as good as the super high end ones. I love it.

College football game day bingo. This can be customized to your favorite team. So fun.

Zoom Mute Button. OBSESSED with this. We all need it.

Heated neck wrap. We have two of these and love them. They make you feel so relaxed. Also great for stress. 

Ooni pizza oven. We love ours and have used it for years. Makes the best pizza. 

Aviator sunglasses. I love gifting Eddie sunglasses. Especially classic good ones that he won’t buy himself. 

SPF moisturizer. I’m an SPF lunatic so of course, I get him this. 

Ember smart mug. This will forever be something I love. Keeps drinks warm!!

Higher Dose PEMF mat. I saved a favorite for last. The higher dose mats are expensive, but we both use this PEMF mat every single day. It is more than worth it for us. A great addition to a gym.

Shinola briefcase. This is a huge splurge that is stunning. Definitely a timeless, classic piece. 

Reversible belt. This is another designer item that I’ve got for Eddie on a milestone birthday. It’s a piece they’ll have forever that is so useful! He wears it nearly everyday. 

Euphoria throw blanket. The UGG throw blanket is SO fluffy and soft. I’ve given it to my in laws before and people just love it. Super comfortable. 

Monos carry on luggage.  Another luggage option that we have an love. It holds up and is great quality. 

Hand salve. If you live in a cold climate, it’s a necessity. We keep it stashed in our car! 

Hockey cocktail stirrers. These are SO fun. 

Hydro performance cap. Such a sleek baseball hat. It’s so sharp. 

On cloudnova sneaker. Some of my favorite sneakers and Eddie’s too. They are so cool looking and extremely comfortable. 

Sorel waterproof chukka boot. I got him these for his birthday. They are so sharp too! 

Hatch restore. We have one in our bedroom and can’t live without it.

Nodpod weighted blanket. We’re big weighted blanket people. This is fabulous for lounge or bed! 

Flickering bonfire bluetooth speaker. This is so cool. I think it would be awesome to use in the evenings! 

Bleu de Chanel cologne. One of my favorite scents. So good. 

Longchamp expandable travel bag. This is such a great bag for travel. It folds up into nothing and is so light and durable. You can fit so much in it. 

Beis cosmetic case. A great choice for a (large more structured) dopp kit. 

Ugg ascot slipper. The perfect ugg for men. 

Water repellent sling backpack. With three young kids we can’t go anywhere without a bag. This is such a great guy’s version. 

Polo scarf. So classic. 

Shiatsu Back Massager. We have had this for years and people fight over it in our house. It is the most relaxing thing ever.

Shiatsu Neck Massager Pillow. This is such a good one too – it’s more of a pillow version that doesn’t wrap.

Thymes fraiser fir candle. This smells exactly like the perfect christmas tree.

Couples Split Sheet Set. I’ve joked about Eddie’s sleep habits for years and stealing the covers. This is GENIUS.

Tumi nylon backpack. Another great option for travel. Lasts forever! 

Peter Millar quarter zip. This is Eddie’s favorite sweater. He wears them to work multiple days a week. 

Rhone commuter shirt. And this is his current favorite shirt! 

Magnesium body butter. Definitely getting this for Eddie this year! 

Tech cord organizer case. We have so.many.cords. If you don’t have one of these, you need it.

MLB stadium poster. This is fun. I love when something can be use as decor!

Lake topography art. Eddie and I love these. We always see them when we’re on vacation in Michigan.

Mini Power Scrubber. This is most gratifying cleaning tool ever.

Yeti Rambler Mug. A classic favorite that everyone adores.

Microfiber robe. This looks like the softest thing ever. I love the plaid.

My hostess gift guide is filled with the things I LOVE to bring as gifts to hosts. Whether it’s someone I’m very close, a neighbor or even an acquaintance, I have tons of ideas that I love to use for host gifts. I keep some of these on hand during the year too. My grandma was and my mom is so good at this, so I like to think that I have some signature gifting abilities when it comes to hostess gifts!

My under $25 gift guide is full of everything I love the most! Quick and easy gifts for stockings, friends and family, work parties, favorite things parties and more. It’s my favorite gift guide out of them all!

I love making gift guides and this is crazy – it’s my 14th year making them. This is always my favorite gift guide to make. It’s easily the price range where I find myself buying the most gifts – whether it’s for a grab bag family gift (we pick names in a few instances in our family and it’s GREAT – highly suggest doing this if you haven’t yet.), a stocking stuffer, a teacher gift, a work gift, etc. And I have SO MANY IDEAS for you here.

Most of the things you’ll find in my gifts guides won’t be a huge surprise – I’ve talked about most of them throughout the years in my monthly favorites posts. There are repeats from years past, because I want to make sure I’m recommending something I have, use, gifted and/or love. However, I’ve scoured the internet and lots of my favorite places to curate a guide of things I really, truly love, and plan on gifting. This is my favorite list!

As usual, I’m sharing gift guides in addition to my regular content, so if these aren’t of interest to you, there will still be new recipes and/or Crumbs content every day!

2024 STOCKING STUFFER GIFT GUIDE – MY FAVORITE GIFTS UNDER $25

Everyday Dinners! My newest book is current under $20 – the best price I’ve seen so far! I have no idea when that price will change, so stock up for some holiday gifts!

The Pretty Dish. My second cookbook is also listed under $25 right now – a fantastic price for gifting!

Rainbow photo filter. This is SO fun. 

Breathwork deck. I’m getting this for myself. Love the idea. 

Desktop pickleball. Getting this for multiple people. I love it!  

Frasier Fir Candle. My favorite holiday scent of all time. Smells like a christmas tree. 

E Frances Little Notes. I discovered these this year and LOVE them. Best gift ever! 

E Frances Notepad. The notepads are equally as adorable!

Cozy crew socks. Can’t ever say no to these. 

Eye mask boosters. I’m putting these in Eddie’s stocking this year!

Charlotte Tilbury sheet mask. Perfect stocking stuffer for the beauty lover. 

In a Pickle season salt. Obsessed with this.

Osea glow set. One of my favorite skincare sets ever. 

4 piece mask set. Love that this can be broken into pieces for stockings or small gifts.

Puzzle piece sorting trays. This would be a fabulous present for the puzzle lover! 

Mike’s Hot Honey. This is one of my most favorite gifts. 

Fabric Shaver. This will change your life with sweaters, couches, leggings, etc. Makes things look brand new. 

The $10 meat chopper. I have multiples. It’s a must have! 

Porter Salad Bowl. My favorite salad bowls. I use these for fruit, take them to the beach, use for food prep, everything. 

Garlic Grater Dish. My dad got me one of these and I love it. Also perfect little piece of decor.

Maple Granola. This is my favorite store-bought granola of all time. Small batch, tastes amazing, so crunchy. I live for it.

Kitsch Satin Scrunchies. These are EVERYTHING. I use them daily. So great for your hair and I have gifted them to friends already.

Ice Roller. I love this so much for headaches and stress. It totally wakes me up in the morning too.

Porter Salad Bowl. These are such high quality and make incredible gifts. This bowl is perfect for the work week. Whether you work in or outside of the home, prepping lunch ahead is a key to success. I make salads for lunch (minus the dressing) and store them in here and they stay great for 2-3 days.

Truff Jalapeno Lime Hot Sauce. Oh my WORD. This is my stocking stuffer for this year! 

Brightland Champagne Vinegar. For those with good taste!

A mini gold whisk. Who could pass this up? LOVE it for a stocking.

Toaster Tongs. A practical little gift that pretty much everyone needs.

Beeswax wrap. I use these everyday. They are a great practical gift!

Rabbit champagne saver. Always needed in case you don’t finish the botlte. 

Good vanilla extract! This is the best gift ever. I would be thrilled with it. 

Roasting Scoop Tool. I love how giant this spatula is. It’s an excellent scoop!

My 2024 beauty gift guide is full of all my favorite things! The best holiday sets, items you can break apart for teacher gifts, stocking stuffers and favorite things parties… as well as treats for yourself!

2024 beauty gift guide

I love sharing my beauty gift guide every year! While you can find the beauty items I’m loving in my monthly favorites posts, the offerings during the holiday season are perfect for trying out new products or getting jumbo ones of your favorite size!

This is one of my favorite times of year because the gift sets are amazing – and you can get things to break apart and share with friends or use as stocking stuffers! If you want more ideas of things I love, you can always check out my monthly favorites posts.

2024 BEAUTY GIFT GUIDE

Simple Human makeup mirror. I’ve had mine for years and Eddie has one too. We love these. It’s the best. 

Elemis Resurfacing kit. I fell in love with the resurfacing pads in early 2024. I have them on hand at all times and use 3 or 4 days a week!

Jo Malone ginger biscuit cologne. If you’ve been around, you know this is one of my favorite perfumes of all time. It’s limited edition and only comes back every few years!

Crown Affair hair towel. I can’t wash my hair unless I have this after. The strap for holding it on your head is genius!

Dr Jart Korean Face Mask 10 set. I just ordered this because everything I’ve ever used from Dr Jart is fantastic.

Mini nuetrals butter balm set. Love this as a gift or to break apart for little gifts for stockings, teachers, etc.

Kopari body cream set. These smell incredible. Some of my favorite body cream. 

T3 switch kit wave trio. Only curling wand that I use. It’s between this and my dyson airbrush! 

Bader essentials kit. The rich cream is another product I can’t live without. I use it mostly as an eye cream but adore it as a face cream in the winter. It’s changed the game for me.

Toiletry organizer. This is one of my favorite things to gift. Great for friends, parents, etc. 

Charlotte Tilbury diamond chest. This is technically an advent calendar but I think it would make an excellent gift for the beauty lover. I’m dying for it.

Westman Atelier petite brush set. I love tiny brushes and the westman ones are some of my favorite.

T3 Shark speed style dryer.  I’ve used a dyson hair dryer for years, but I just got the shark and it’s fantastic. I love it almost as much as my dyson and the price is much lower than the dyson!

Mask 3 piece set. A classic that never goes out of style. I’ve used these masks for ages. 

Dyson strawberry bronze Dyson air wrap. One of my most coveted hair tools! I love the body and shine that the air wrap gives my hair. There is a learning curve, but once you learn, it is easy and quick! 

Sigma essential brush kit. Now here are my favorite brushes of all time. Can’t live without them. 

Patchology eye masks. Excellent for waking up the eyes. These are so wonderful.

Charlotte Tilbury eye palette. The colors in this are gorgeous. Flattering on all eye shdes too. 

Osea body duo. Quite possibly my favorite body oil and lotion to date. 

Osea anti-aging duo. And the balm! It is incredible – like serum for your body. I absolutely love it. 

Silk pillowcase set.  Haven’t slept on anything BUT a silk pillowcase for 6 or 8 years. Emilia also sleeps on one because it keeps the tangles out of her hair. 

Hillhouse silk pillowcase. Last year I switched my own silk pillowcase to this Hill House version and I LOVE it. This one has a zipper and it’s so silky smooth.

Westman Atelier blush trio. Love love love the westman blushes. They are super easy to use too. 

Moonlight ethereal eye palette. I just got this a few weeks ago and it’s all I’ve been using on my eyes. Gorgeous shades, super cool toned. It is so pretty. 

Body stone triple set. I love these body stones – they are soothing and relaxing to use. 

Exfoliating dry brush. My favorite dry brush that I’ve ever try. 

Solid bath & shower pebble oil set. I ordered this in the sephora sale and am so excited for it. Will make an excellent gift! 

Surrat eyelash curler. Best and only eyelash curler I will ever use! 

Iconic london base blend brushes. These are STUNNING. I just ordered for a gift and am very excited about them. 

Best ice roller ever! This is my all-time favorite ice roller and I’ve tried so many. 

Butter brush dry brush. If you like a dry brush with a longer handle, this is a great one too. I keep this one in my bathroom as well. 

Facial massager tool. This is also key for me when I have headaches or just crave some self care. It’s very relaxing.

Compact mini ice roller. And I love this little guy to have on the go too! 

4 piece velvet puff set. Favorite puffs for setting under eye concealer! 

LED mirror & power bank set. A great little mirror to always have on hand too. 

Iconic cream palette. I live for cream contour and blush. I use it under setting powder and love the look. This is incredible! 

T3 Airebrush duo. The best blow dry brush ever!

Solawave skin care wand. Light therapy for targeted areas of the face. I really love this.

CALPAK cosmetic case. Have this in multiple sizes and love it, especially for travel.

Vanity Kit. This is another option that I have and love. It’s so easy to use and very very lightweight.

Large Neutral Claw Clips. I love claw clips when I’m at home for keeping my hair up.

Creaseless Hair Clips. I use (and love) these every time I do my hair.

Touchland 5 pack hand sanitizer. Perfect for stockings!

KNC beauty eye mask. This is one of my favorite under eye masks. And it’s so cute too!

Dr Dennis Gross Faceware Pro Mask. I bought a red light mask last year and look like a lunatic but dare I say… it works?

Lip Pro LED Device. The same as above, but just for lips!

Drybar Rollers and Hairclips Set. I bought this at the sephora sale and am super excited about it.

My 2023 men’s gift guide is here! All of my favorite things to gift Eddie or the guys in my life – and of course so many items that I would love too! This list is versatile and so good!

Everything I’m loving this year for my 2023 men’s gift guide – and everything Eddie is loving too! This is a mix of what I’ve bought him in the past and what he is getting this year. So much to love! Of course these gifts can be for anyone (I want many things on the list below!), but I know all the guys in my life would loooove this stuff! And they are always just so hard to buy for. There are also some great ideas in my gift guide under $25.

2023 MEN’S GIFT GUIDE

Moonlit pajamas. These are my absolute favorites and now they have them for men!! I can’t even handle it.

Jersey knit pajamas. The eberjey ones are also excellent – especially if you don’t want the buttons down the front.

Aura Photo Frame. I gifted this six times in 2021 – it is incredible. I gave it to Eddie for Father’s Day and he has it at work. You upload pics to the app and they appear on the frame – multiple people can do it so it’s great for grandparents too!

Long charging cord. We have about a million of these. Always needed.

Whoop fitness tracker. I got this for Eddie last year and he LOVES it. He has worn it all year. He loves getting different bands too.

Cashmere hooded sweater. I always look for a nice higher end sweater for him. This one is such a great option.

Matchbook prints. Adore these. I got a few for our new house!

Shiatsu Back Massager. We have had this for years and people fight over it in our house. It is the most relaxing thing ever.

Shiatsu Neck Massager Pillow. This is such a good one too – it’s more of a pillow version that doesn’t wrap.

Thymes fraiser fir candle. This smells exactly like the perfect christmas tree.

Couples Split Sheet Set. I’ve joked about Eddie’s sleep habits for years and stealing the covers. This is GENIUS.

Engraved Tape Measure. A bit cliche, but very useful and practical.

Lake topography art. Eddie and I love these. We always see them when we’re on vacation in Michigan.

Mini Power Scrubber. This is most gratifying cleaning tool ever.

Yeti Rambler Mug. A classic favorite that everyone adores.

Microfiber robe. This looks like the softest thing ever. I love the plaid.

Rechargeable Hand Warmers. This is the best idea for someone out in the cold often!

Bluetooth Shower Speaker. Everyone would love one of these.

Slim card case. This super slim case is the best pick this year.

On Cloudnova sneakers. These are my favorite On’s for casual wear! In both men and women’s styles.

Kiehls moisturizer. I love putting skincare in Eddie’s stocking. I do a mix of singles and sets.

Kiehls skincare set. Like this one! The sets are great to try new things and break apart.

Fleur de sel. Just bought this up! Sign me up for an edible gift that everyone can use.

NHL puck coaster set. For the hockey lovers. That’s us.

Acupressure Mat. This is one of the best purchases of 2021 I made. It is so relaxing and really a game changer if you’re stressed out.

Trigger Point Back Rocker. On the same note as the above, this is our next purchase.

Flat cast iron pan. I ordered this pan because it looks so EASY to use. That’s the name of the game here if Eddie is cooking.

Shinola desk calendar. Love this desk calendar. Elevates the desk so much.

Watch roll. This travel watch roll is excellent.

Philips automatic coffee machine. For the coffee and espresso lovers! This is just as good as the super high end ones. I love it.

College football game day bingo. This can be customized to your favorite team. So fun.

Wool & cashmere scarf. Can’t go wrong with a scarf. Again, this print is my fave!

Half zip cashmere sweater.  The nordstrom quarter zip pullovers are amazing quality for the price. Eddie wears these all the time to work.

Self Watering Indoor Garden. This self watering option is so good and you can have herbs all winter long. We love ours!

Carbon Fiber Money Clip. I love how sleek this is.

Shinola Playing Cards. I love this set. So classy!

Yeti Soft Cooler. One of our best purchases ever. We use our yeti cooler a ton.

Star Wars Stance socks. Stance socks are the best. They are so

Checkered throw blanket. Everyone fights over these in our house.

Spice Rub Library. I love getting Eddie one of these every few years. He uses it to make his lunches – whether it’s chicken or vegetables, etc.

Watch box Organizer. I got Eddie one last year and he loved it.

Zoom Mute Button. OBSESSED with this. We all need it.

Ergonomic eye mask. This is on both of our lists this year.

Bocce ball set. A frivolous yet sharp version of a fan favorite!

Magnetic BBQ Lights. I ordered these this year for gifts. They are so versatile and can be used almost everywhere!

Heated neck wrap. Everyone needs one.

BEIS carry on suitcase. I got Eddie a tumi suitcase 10 years ago. We just bought a BEIS for Max, and the quality is incredible.

Convertible laptop bag/backpack. Love that this can be a crossbody or backpack bag!

Bondi 8 running shoes. These are the running shoes Eddie uses on both the treadmill and outdoors.

Ooni Pizza Oven. I got Eddie out first ooni years ago for his birthday. It’s easy to use, clean up, and a fun experience to make pizza together.

Splatter Screen. A MUST for every kitchen!

Reserve Black Greenpan Set. My favorite pans in the coolest black.

Carhart beanie. This is a timeless classic.

Vuori performance joggers. These are so comfortable and soft. I got them for Eddie for his birthday and he loves them.

Ember smart mug. This will forever be something I love. Keeps drinks warm!!

Ugg chukka boot. I have bought these for Eddie twice in the last 15 years or so – they are so comfortable, so warm and I love how they look.

Ugg scuff slipper. And the slippers too! They are the best.

Watch deck display case. Another option for the watch lover. The storage is incredible.

Shark Cordless Handheld Vacuum. This handheld vac is the BEST. We have it and love it.

Grill Mat Set. Everyone raves about these grill mats.

Solostove Bonfire Pit. I got one of these for my Dad. We love it!

Solostove Tabletop Pit. This is awesome for small spaces too.

Wunder Puff vest. The lulu vests are the best ones out there. I love both men and women’s version. So warm, puffy but not gigantic.

Higher Dose PEMF mat. I saved a favorite for last. The higher dose mats are expensive, but we both use this PEMF mat every single day. It is more than worth it for us. A great addition to a gym.

My 2023 women’s gift guide is here! All my favorite things in one place that I love so much.

This gift guide is filled with TONS of my favorite things. The bags, shoes, pajamas and year-after-year items I use. You’ve seen and heard of a lot of them throughout 2021 as I’ve shared them in my favorites, but these are the best of the best of what I am loving!

Of course these gifts can be for anyone! These are my personal picks out of everything I have loved over the years.

2023 GIFT GUIDE FOR HER

Silk Pillowcase. This is something I use every single day. I think it’s a great gift! I even travel with mine if I go somewhere.

Magazine tote bag. The colors are so gorgeous – this pink!

Simple Modern 40oz tumbler. I have loved the Stanely tumbler for years, but this one has won out. It’s almost leak proof, so much sleeker, lighter and more economical. I adore it.

Glitter gold heels. My christmas shoes this year.

Mason Grey robe. This robe is life changing. It’s light weight, but still warm and SO soft. I got one right before Jordan was born for the hospital. It’s wonderful and stiff my favorite.

Fluffy Hotel Robe. If you prefer a fluffy hotel-like robe, I’m in love with this one. The tie dye on the edges is so cute without being obnoxious too. The kids have matching ones!

Silicone Bangle Keyring. Can’t live without this. Would lose my keys constantly!

Apothecary jar candle. I love a beautiful candle like this – because the jar can be repurposed.

And cute matches to match! Perfect stocking stuffer.

Chappy Wrap blanket. This was my #1 gift this year. I have gifted this so many times, most recently to my dad. It’s an excellent outdoor blanket.

Rifle paper calendar. This is my wall calendar every year! It’s so beautiful.

Le Specs Air Heart Sunglasses. My go-to sunglasses for over five years. Adore them.

Gold duffle bag. I just bought this as a gift to myself. Merry Christmas!

Bedazzled faux fur earmuffs. Lacy got me these for my birthday and they are SO fun. Also, super comfortable.

Delicate monogram necklace. I adore any delicate necklace.

Monogram heart pendant. But I also like this update to the monogram version!

Pastel CLUE game. We are huge on games over here. I like having a pretty one like this that can be displayed.

Primrose vanity mirror. This stunning version of the viral anthro mirror is perfect for a vanity.

Iridescent puffer mittens. Holographic or rainbow anything will always win out for me.

Wool city coat. Best quality coat for such a wonderful price. This blue is calling my name! I have it in black from years ago.

Barefoot Dreams Throw. This wins for the best gift you can give anyone. I’ve gifted this probably ten times over the last decade. Everyone loves it. These are the softest blankets on earth.

Better Homes & Garden Cozy Knit Throw. This is the closest I’ve found to barefoot dreams for a fraction of the price. It doesn’t feel exactly like it, but it’s so, so cloze and super cozy!

Moonlit Pajamas. This is something else I share every single year. BEST PAJAMAS EVER! So stretchy and soft and comfortable. I live in these. I love every version: the nightgowns, the button down PJs, the v-neck top ones.

Ugg Mini Boot. I will always profess my love for Uggs despite how ugly they can look. They are SO good for cold weather here. I get a new black pair every few years after I wear the heck out of mine. I got the black short ones last year and love them.

Lululemon Align Pants. You cannot go wrong with these. They have been uniform for years. Nothing compares.

MZ Wallace Metro Tote. I have used this tote for years – since Max was born. Going on seven years and it’s the best travel/throw-stuff-in tote.

Giant plaid scarf. An anthro scarf is a must if you live in a cold climate.

Faux leather texting gloves. And so are these gloves! I love that they aren’t bulky at all.

Nixon bracelet watch. My parents got me a nixon watch years ago and it’s still a favorite. I think they are so sharp.

Mildliner Markers. These are my favorite to use in my planner.

Mini Portable Fridge. Use it as a beauty fridge (my fave) or even for mini cans of the drink you love. I love these so much!

Sling Bag. I’ve been team-sling for two years now. The best way to be hands free.

Weighted sleep mask. I gifted this a bunch last year! Excellent for relaxation.

Rhinestone mini bag. This is a copy of many high end designer bags and I adore it. So cute for the holiday season or a fancy occasion.

Hatch Restore. I bought our hatch when I had Jordan. We can’t sleep without this. I also use this as my reading light!

New balance 327s. This was my favorite shoe of 2023. It is so flattering on the foot and just looks super cool. Also very comfortable.

Air Max 270 sneakers. And these would be my next choice. I have multiple colors and love the look of them.

Mini black bag with gold chain. This bag silhouette is such a favorite of mine. It’s so classic and timeless.

Quilted carryall bag. But I am also crushing over this quilted bag in all the amazing colors.

Jewel tone taper candles. Lacy also got me these for my birthday and they make me so happy. Such a great gift!

Lustre coupe glasses. I have a few of these and they are stunning. Always asked about when entertaining.

Tory Burch camera bag. If you want to gift a “good” luxury-ish bag, this is my #1 choice. I love everything Tory Burch and it’s so high quality, plus it looks very classic and will last forever. I want this camera one!

Pave crystal link earrings. I love this delicate earring with a modern twist.

Puffy platform slipper. My #1 slipper choice this year. Everything puffer gets me.

Barefoot dreams socks. My grandma got me socks every year and I love the tradition.

Healthy hair brush. This for a scalp massage is incredible.

Laptop Lap Desk. My parents got me this last a few years ago and I LOVE IT.

Hot and Cold foam froth maker. Makes cold foam! Sign me up!

Olukai Slipper Slides. These are my all-day at home “shoe” slippers. They are extremely supportive and great if you’re on your feet a lot.

Cashmere Scarf Wrap. A timeless classic that you can’t beat.

Bodum Tea For One. I LOVE this idea for quick loose leaf tea.

Portable Cup Warmer. The best priced mug warmer. Always a winner!

Brightland Artist Capsule. Everyone can use olive oil… and this is my favorite.

Roxanne Assoulin Bracelets. Most favorite bracelets ever! Lacy got me into these and they are so gorgeous. I love a stretchy, comfortable bracelet. And you can mix and match so many. Perfect for a color lover.

Canon Mini Photo Printer. Not only do I love this, the kids love it! I print out lots of pictures from my phone, which print on a sticker. You can add the pics to your planner, calendar, cards, etc. I stick pictures of Jordan in the kids’ backpack!

Scout Tote Bag. Everyone, seriously everyone, needs a scout bag. They fold flat and take up no space. They have a zipper and hold SO much. You can transport anything in them. They are waterproof! Absolutely perfect. I love these for teacher gifts with a gift card.

Windproof Umbrella. This is on my wishlist this year. I never have an umbrella.
