Hey! While we’re doing our best to make sure the products we feature will arrive in time for Christmas, shipping times are tricky and can vary depending on where you live, which product you purchase, and more. So order earlier than you think you need to and be sure to double-check the retailers’ websites for shipping information to ensure that your gift will arrive in time for when you need it. You can see Nordstrom's full shipping information here.
1. A double-breasted coat they'll be able to style over a pajama shirt and leggings for a look that screams "voila, I've tried" even though they very much did not try. The dream.
2. Ugg mini boots for a two-fold gift that delivers comfort.. but also helps them achieve a full circle moment if their parents refused to buy them a pair in middle school. Mom, how could you?
3. A bottle of Yves Saint Laurent Libre destined to become their go-to fragrance; a combination of French lavender essence, Morrocan orange blossom, and musk accord provide for a unique scent that will feel all their own.
4. A limited-edition Fresh Sugar Color & Care Set conveniently packaged in an ornament box, meaning no wrapping will be required for this moisturizing trio. What's included: A travel-sized trio of Fresh' rosé tinted balm, plus the intense therapy and sugar mint treatments.
5. A Mermade Hair Waver to deliver tousled, beachy tresses in 10 minutes or less. They'll simply have to separate their hair into sections, clamp down for a few seconds, and that's it — no twirling strands around a large barrel necessary.
6. A pajama set with all the comfort of the PJ set they've been wearing to bed since 1893, but it's not fuzzy fleece rubber duck pajamas and ergo a *lot* more chic.
7. A Kurt Geiger crossbody crafted with a slew of unique features, cc: lush blue velvet, croc-embossed pattern, a shiny gold interior, and signature crystal-embellished eagle head.
8. A deluxe Estée Lauder set retailing for $79 — despite a $570 value. They'll open a train case filled with the following: two Pure Color Envy lipsticks, the Double-Wear Stay-in-Place lip liner, an eye makeup remover, the Sumptuous Extreme Mascara, a limited-edition eyeshadow palette, Revitalizing Supreme + Creme, and a 1 oz. and 0.24 oz. of the lauded Advanced Night Repair Face Serum.
9. A Sugarfina chocolate bar duo I am currently drooling over. Bar one is dark chocolate topped with crushed peppermint candy; bar two is creamy milk chocolate sprinkled with crushed peppermint candy and marshmallows.
10. A Diptyque ceramic medallion that uses fragrant, moth-repellent notes of cedarwood and lavender to freshen up small spaces (cc: closets, wardrobes, and dresser drawers).
11. A polycarbonate Béis suitcase to replace the luggage they've been traveling with since studying abroad ten years ago (I hear it already: Barthelona). This option looks sleek, has 360-degree wheels, and the storage compartments make organization a breeze.
12. Smoko slippers that look like potatoes which, tbqh, is reason enough to add to cart. Still have ~cold feet~ over whether or not these would make a solid gift? They're also heated. Heated slippers inspired by something that makes both vodka and a french fry. You're welcome.
13. Alo lounge leggings that are everything a WFH bottom *should* be: high-rise, moisture-wicking, supportive, and I-cant-believe-it's-not-butter soft. Heaven is a place on earth in which their leggings aren't see-through (and these are it).
14. A limited-edition Boy Smells candle trio made from coconut and beeswax. Scents include Incensorial (orange peel, incense, cardamom, tobacco, amber, suede), Figurare (fig, black pepper, lavender, cardamom, pepperwood, balsam), and Broken Rosary (cedarwood, rose, cardamom, moss, cinnamon, musk, orris).
15. A wrap jacket made from a deliciously cozy material bound to become a staple in their daily wardrobe, despite the season. Chilly summer nights by the beach? They'll be throwing this on. Lounging indoors during winter? Voila, the perfect layer for them yet again.
16. A Hydro Flask that keeps liquids cold for up to 24 hours and hot for up to six hours, making this an ideal soulmate for anyone who always has a bevvie on them. Coffee? Water? Wine? The options are limitless.
17. A snazzy 8-inch simplehuman mirror to streamline their beauty routine. How? It simulates natural sunlight (and provides 5x magnification) to ensure they actually blend that foundation. Because raise your hand if you've ever had to fix a friend's makeup as soon as you sat down as there were uneven patches of orange spread across your cheekbone. Raise your hand if you've ever been said friend. *slowly raises hand*
18. A wine chiller sure to be appreciated by any vino lover. This vacuum-insulated, stainless-steel canister makes good on its promise of keeping whites and rosés cold for hours — so they can say so long to diluting ice cubes, once and for all.
19. A retro-inspired Smeg kettle cleverly designed with a built-in cord wrap, auto shut-off feature, and seven temperature levels to get their tea just the way they like it — whether they prefer scalding hot or lukewarm.
20. Pointy-toe Marc Fisher chelsea boots capable of inspiring even Dorothy to ditch those ruby red slippers for a more practical (but equally as stylish) option.
21. A bottle of Santal 33 from Le Labo, a musky scent reminiscent of campfire smoke thanks to notes of Australian sandalwood, cedarwood, cardamom, iris, and violet. Would we judge if you kept this fragrance for yourself? No, no we would not.
22. A Marshall speaker with such a stylish design, the fantastic sound quality feels like an additional perk on. This bad boy offers 20+ hours of playback on a single charge, connects to their phone from 30 feet away, plus comes equipped with a trendy carrying strap for ultimate portability.
23. A limited-edition ornament of Slip scrunchies, because it's about time they break up with breakage. This practical gift uses a smooth silk that won't tug or pull at their 'do (they're perfect for sleep!), plus these last and last and last after months of constant use.
24. A water-resistant Longchamp nylon tote so lightweight, it's hard to believe it's roomy enough to comfortably house their entire life. Seriously, it's *so* deceiving just how much this thing can fit.
25. Hoka running sneakers lauded by reviewers for their supreme comfort, support, and stability. These lace-ups are a solid choice when it comes to everything from running laps to running errands — seriously, the world is their oyster with these shoes.
26. A Shiseido curler expertly designed with an edge-proof, broad curve that allows for every single lash to be curled from tip to root and from the inner to outer corner. This practical present is truly a gift that keeps on giving.
27. An Aquis hair towel perfect for delicate, freshly-washed hair. The microfiber construction is super-absorbent, lightweight, and gentle — meaning it'll cut blow-drying time (like, in HALF) without tugging or damaging their 'do.
