FOR HER
Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Stix High-Shine Gloss Stick
I have recently fallen in love with this lipstick, and it’s one of those that’s a crowd pleaser. It’s a perfect marriage between a gloss and a lipstick and goes on so smoothly with that high-shine factor. There are 16 colors to choose from, but I would say your safest bet that looks on everyone is the High’Biscus. Only $26, too!
innisfree Green Tea Caffeine Bright-Eye Serum with Niacinamide
innisfree is a Korean skincare line, which is all the rage. This undereye serum is applied with a cooling metal massage tip that feels absolutely indulgent to use first thing in the morning. A perfect stocking stuffer or “my favorite things” gift for $22.
Who can resist a good slipper? Not this girl, that’s for sure. I don’t own these (yet), but I can just tell they’re not only incredibly cozy, but functional because of the slide back. They come in 6 different colors, but my top picks would be Toffee or Dark Caramel.
I LOVE CLARE V. Sorry, that needed to be stated. These cameo studs jumped out at me when curating these GG lists, and I couldn’t ignore them. The black and gold really pops, and they’re just so vintage and “cool girl” in all the right ways. Get these for a uniquely stylish friend.
Speaking of Clare V., THIS SCARF? It’s absolutely perfect in every way. The red trim, and the brown and black checker pattern?! I also love that it’s fashioned to be exactly what you need in terms of surface area; there’s not a lot of material to deal with. I will be treating myself to it this season.
Handmade Suzani Embroidery Jacket
I have always wanted one of these. Every time I see them, I lust. The price is pretty amazing (under $50?!), and there are so many colorways to choose from. This is the perfect gift for your boho mom or auntie who would absolutely pull this off.
18K Gold Fineline Custom Nameplate Ring
I just think a ring like this is cool AF. It’s plated in 18k gold, too, which means it should hold up really well. There’s definitely a lady in your life who would die for this ring.
Dazzle Dry nail polish starter kit
I’ve been singing Dazzle Dry its praises for years now. It’s THE BEST at-home manicure I’ve ever given myself. No gel, no powder. It’s just regular, longer-lasting nail polish that dries within 5 minutes (!!!) and lasts AT LEAST 5 days (unless you’re like banging your nails into things constantly). The starter kit is perfect and comes with everything you need to, well, get started. Killer gift.
The original sneaker is a New Balance x Miu Miu collab, and if you have that kind of money, BY ALL MEANS. Alas, I do not so these Amazon dupes will have to do! I’m just obsessed with the all brown sneaker and the two-tone laces — so, so fun. I ordered a pair for myself (be warned: they’re not Prime shipping. It takes a minute for these to deliver) and cannot wait. A cool woman in your life would much appreciate them.
Ellen loves a brooch; therefore, I love a brooch. I couldn’t choose just one from the large selection Etsy has, so I’m linking the entire search category for you to browse. They have some really gorgeous pieces, and something tells me that brooches are making a comeback. Even if they aren’t, this could be a great gift for a MIL or grandma! Or cool girl you know.
Madewell Triple Metal Keeper Belt
I love this belt so much, I have it in two colors. It’s just so damn good and very well priced (and even less for the season!). It comes in tons of color combos, so you have your pick on what would best suit whoever you’re buying it for. It’s a crowd pleaser, for sure.
Alexa Chung x Madewell Sweater
This crocheted cardigan is a pretty penny, but NOT trendy, meaning they will wear it forever and maybe even pass it down (or let you borrow it). I’m beyond obsessed with the red; alas, I won’t allow my pregnant ass to buy it because what’s the point. I’m not a “buy it now and wait for next season” kinda girlie, so I’m gonna pass BUT you shouldn’t. It’s perfect.
I LOVE an ear cuff (mostly because I can’t actually get my cartilage pierced. IYKYK). I’m obsessed with this set because you get a gold and a silver, so you can mix metals or wear one at a time depending on your overall look. Love love love.
There’s no way you don’t have a girlie-girl in your life who would die for this tray. IT’S SO CUTE. I’m a sucker for red and pink combo anything and just love it. How fun would this be on a dresser or bathroom counter to throw the day’s jewelry in? And it’s only $28!
Dusen Dusen is new to me. IDK where it’s been all my life, but I’m just grateful it’s here now. Everything is so colorful, including this adorable pink and red striped robe with blue and yellow cuff and tie accents. Like are you kidding me?! It also looks extremely soft and fluffy. Obsessed.
