Transport the Francophile you love to the promise land of baguettes, cobblestoned roads and boutiques through this France-scented candle. The scent profile is vanilla with subtle notes of tobacco and lavender.

Gold hoops go with everything and somehow always feel cool wearing. Here, a 14k gold pair made in the US that won’t slim down your holiday shopping budget. 

Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side… Not when you’re getting out of the tub though. That’s dangerous in an ER-kind of way. Anyway, here’s a cute, dryer-friendly bathmat. 

Levi’s sherpa jackets have been worn by every fashion girl from Gigi Hadid to Zendaya. The denim staple is not only a godsend for complicated transitional temps, but a cozy piece to throw on at home.

Nothing subtly says ‘I’m an Intellectual’ louder than having a decorative bust of a Greek god on display in one’s home. Your loved one won’t see this gift coming, but they’ll love it all the same.

A daydream of a sweater. The ruffled mock neck details will make any outfit look more Danish.

To my left, a 10k gold birthstone ring with certified Swarovski crystals. Not only does this gift look far more expensive than its price tag, its birthstone element adds a personalized touch. 

Few dad sneakers are more iconic or podiatrist-loved than New Balance’s 990 V5 sneaker. (Yes, this is the sneaker you’ve been seeing all over Instagram since quarantine.) Zoe Kravitz, Kaia Gerber and Rosie Huntington-Whitely are just a few of the celebs who’ve been photographed by the ‘paps wearing the chunky anti-It shoe this year. 

White tank tops have defined Tik Tok-era fashion more than any other article of clothing. Gift a set for the culture. 

Editor’s note: I’m normally not one to drop $100 on leggings, or anything really, but I have to say these are the most comfy and flattering leggings I’ve ever owned. Their camo design and foiled texture simply look (and feel) more pulled together than regular black leggings. 

White leather sneakers defined the last decade in fashion and aren’t going away anytime soon. Gift her the pair from Teja, the sustainable brand she’s been trying to track down in her size these last few months.

Kindly sidestep the puddle of drool that formed while I gazed at this wool coat. That leather waist belt! The removable bib (!!!). The feminine silhouette that doesn’t sacrifice warmth! She’ll love this because how could anybody not?

Don’t knock yourself if your quarantine tie-dye project didn’t turn out this cool. These sweats make for a cozy, practical gift that she won’t want to exchange.

A fabulous squeaky toy for a fabulous pup. (Editor’s note: hi, Freddy!!)

This sculptural table lamp injects instant modernity and warmth. It includes an LED bulb too, so the design lover you gift this too will be able to set it up and enjoy right away. 

Made from bamboo with House of Marley’s signature Rewind fabric (a blend of hemp, recycled bottles and organic cotton), these eco-friendly bluetooth speakers deliver equally impressive sound and style. As one reviewer wrote: ”I’m a music major and I use this to practice with orchestra backing… Sound quality is amazing across the board. You can hear every voice in the orchestra, but is not too bass heavy for Drake and Post Malone.”

Stainless steel espresso coffee makers don’t get any chicer than the Bialetti Kitty.

Note that this hits shelves mid-October but can ordered in advance on sale.

It’s hard to come by a list of best robot vacuums online (written by experts who actually tested hundreds of models) where eufy’s RoboVac 15C MAX isn’t included as a budget-friendly mention. The RoboVac 15C MAX has wifi and Alexa voice connectivity, which makes it easy breezy to set up and use. Reviewers love how it delivers an impressive clean with strong suction and self-charges after a clean. 

There’s no such thing as too many coasters, though there is such thing as really tacky coasters. Trust me, I went through over 200 before finding this cool geometric set. These have a cork-lined base which further helps to protect furniture.

For $71, this flattering polarized pair of sunnies is a steal. 

Child-aged techies (and their parents) will be fans of this kids edition Echo Dot. Besides being able to play music and answer questions, the nifty device includes a free year subscription to Amazon Kids+, which has over 1k audiobooks.

In case you’re still thinking about how hot Connell’s chain was in Normal People. Same.

If you’re shopping for a boyfriend who’s an amazing person but just not the best dresser, start with his shoes. Prince Harry has been photographed in a similar pair (Sdidas’s Gazelle trainer) in a similar grey, suede color on countless occasions. This color looks sharp with everything.

Gift a good man in your life the slippers he’d never treat himself to that will change his life. (Or at the very least, keep his toes warm for all winter long.)

Footnanny was one of Oprah’s Favorite Things  back in 2018, though the foot-care brand is loved by many, many more. This travel-sized cream helps with repairing and soothing feet, which isn’t sexy, but important and too often neglected.

Rumored users of the prestigious DiamondClean toothbrush include Beyoncé and Kim K. Per Philips, this luxe toothbrush removes up to 7x more plaque than a manual toothbrush, whitens teeth after 1 week of use, and improves gum health in only 2 weeks.

If you’re after a gift for a book lover that isn’t books, this top-rated set of acrylic bookends works for any decor style. 

For the cat person who loves a good RAC remix. To quote an epic review on Amazon: “By 9pm, DJ Kitty was in beast mode as the rave kicked off in the living room. As the sun came up, DJ Kitty refused to part with the deck… Yes, a bit expensive for [sic]carboard, but we are considering selling tickets to the next show to make up the difference.”

The story behind this cheerful sock brand will move you (and the recipient). Resilience Gives was founded by Jake Teitebaum, a Hodgkin’s lymphoma survivor who was frustrated with poorly-made socks during his stem cell transplant, and is co-owned by Andee Wallace, whose father survived non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. For each pair of socks purchased, the brand donates a pair to a child with cancer who’s undergoing treatment in a hospital. (Women’s and men’s sizes are also available in case you also want to get yourself a pair.)
