Holiday Gift Guide 2022 - Treat Yourself

Now that you have completed shopping for everyone on your list - its YOU time. Check out some ideas below for you to buy when you get that Christmas cash from Aunt Sally.

FOR THE COZY QUEEN

1. skyn ICELAND Nordic Renewal Pre & Probiotic Cream: saying we love this brand is an understatement. This cream in particular is one of our favorites. Its hydrating, replenishing, and made with glacial water. Can’t beat that. (Retails at $40.00)

2. Warmies Slippers: if your feet are always cold, these are for you! Pop them in the microwave and enjoy a warm hug around your feet. Bonus: you can also store in the freezer for a cooling affect. Win-win! (Retails at $34.99)

3. Georgie Cozy Knitted Throw Blanket: Anthropologie makes the best blankets PERIOD. Change my mind. (Retails at $116.00, on SALE for $82.60)

FOR THE FITNESS ENTHUSIAST

1. Blender ProStak: Having the ability to travel with several powder supplements is a game changer for the busy/on-the-go fitness pal. This is a must have! (Retails for $14.25)

2. Walking treadmill: Having the ability to move INSIDE and WHILE WORKING is a perk I will never give up. Its definitely more of a splurge, but its so worth it if you don’t live in sunny Florida. (Retails for $389.99)

3. CRZ Yoga Thermal Fleece-lined 7/8 Leggings: CRZ is known for its closeness to Lululemon quality, and it certainly lives up to that. But LLL hardly EVER carries thermal tights. THESE ARE AMAZING. Not too thick, but adds enough warmth for winter months. (Retails for $32).

FOR THE BOSS BABE

1. Courant Catch All – All courant chargers are great, but we love this one. The colors are chic and it makes a perfect addition to a side table. (Retails for $99, ON SALE for $75)

2. Beis Work Tote - we have tried so many work bags, but the one we keep coming back to is this Beis Black Croc Work Tote. Its so chic and PRACTICAL. It is surprisingly light even with all our things shoved in it. It also has a trolley pass through if you travel for work. We love all things Beis, but this one is our favorite. (Retails for $118 and worth every penny).

3. Ink and volt – We love every product on ink + volt’s website, it was hard to narrow it down to one. So follow the link and explore the organizational tools. They are allllll so good (Retail varies)

FOR THE MAMAS

1. Mama Tee from the Bee and the Fox: This whole brand is amazing and, bonus: run by women. This is just one of the many graphic tees on their site we are loving! Go check them out. (Retails for $35.00)

2. Loop Engage Plus Ear Plugs: MAMAS YOU NEED THESE. These magical ear plugs reduce noise by 16dB without muffling clarity. I cannot recommend these enough, they WORK. (Retails for $39.99)

3. Mama Bracelet: These bracelets are so cute and can be customized to kids, dogs, anybody’s names! They are also gold-FILLED which is superior to gold-plated. (Starts from $30)

Summer 2022 Must Haves

Elemis Pro-Collagen Cream - This stuff is amazing and will give you that ‘glazed donut’ look (thanks Hailey Bieber). It is pricy, but ULTA has a set right now that includes a 1.0 oz jar for LESS than what you pay for that jar by itself. SO RUN, DON’T WALK.
Culprit BAEthing Suit Swim Shorts - Ok, if you have seen the ad for these floating around social media, you know how hilarious the company is. But guys, these shorts are EVERYTHING. Want to be cute and sassy but also comfortable? GET THESE. They also have zippers on the side so our thick thighs can breathe.
Round Metal Raybans (Gold/Green) - My every day trendy, but not too trendy, sunglasses are a MUST.
IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream Illumination Foundation - They aren’t lying when they call this ‘illuminating” but in the summer, bring on the bronzing sheen. Just enough coverage to even out my skin, but still can breathe.
Hydro Flask - I know what you’re thinking, THANK GOODNESS you didn’t include that dang 40 oz Stanley Thirst Quencher. Hydro Flask is the G.O.A.T. It is nestled in the PNW and created the Parks for All program that supports nonprofit organizations focused on building, maintaining, restoring, and providing more equitable access to parks. Oh, and its in stock haha!
