37 Gifts For Anyone With An Affinity For The Finer Things In Life

Like a ~luxurious~ towel warmer they'll wonder how they ever lived without.

1. A supremely soft pair of fuzzy slippers they can keep by their bed so their precious feet won't have to touch a freezing cold hardwood floor first thing in the morning (the worst!).

Promising review: "These slippers are amazing! Discovered them on TikTok and went back and forth about ordering them but wow, they are so comfortable. I have barely taken them off since receiving them. They are so fluffy and stay on my feet surprisingly well when walking around the house. Can’t wait until more colors are in stock to get another pair." —MSumm

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get them from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in sizes 5–10 and 12 colors)

2. A pack of aromatherapy shower steamers that'll help transform their bathroom into the relaxing spa of their dreams via delicious scents. 

Each set includes different scents to help relax, invigorate, or even clear the sinuses. Scents include lavender, menthol-eucalyptus, vanilla, and pomegranate-rose. They're also nonslip, vegan, and cruelty-free.

Promising review: "I am in love with the shower steamer bombs. They smell so good in the package and even better in the shower. I do not have a tub for bath bombs so when I found these I was so happy. Once I used them I was overjoyed because they were so calming and relaxing and I didn’t feel left out. Thank you for taking the time to think about the shower experience and making it better. I will be ordering more soon." —Stina

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get a pack of six from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in two varieties, as well as 12-, 18-, and 36-pack varieties). 

3. SipCaddy wine and beer holder for making their nightly bubble bath even more luxurious.

Promising review: "Such a simple idea, how is this just coming into my life now? I didn't think showers could get any better but now I have a brew/wine within reach at all times. Really helps take the edge off after a long day. The thing is way sturdier than you'd expect, I've tugged on it and it's not going anywhere. The slotted design allows you to use stemmed wineglasses, too. A truly perfect product. This piece of plastic is working as hard as my therapist and I stan." —Steven

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get it from Amazon for $13.95+ (available in six styles).

The jars are BPA-free as well as microwave- and dishwasher-safe.

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Rachel Dunkel says: "Before working from home became the norm, I would use these handy jars to bring my lunch almost every day. They're perfect for things like fruit, salad, or something saucy — stuff you really don't want to get squished *and* want to ensure doesn't leak into your bag. *But* I have found that I use them just as much at home full-time! They are of course great for leftovers, but also for prepped ingredients for the week. Shedded cheese, prepped chicken, and chopped veggies usually live in these, ready to be utilized for a quick lunch or snack. They clean *super* well — I even have the cream color and it recovered from storing beets! 10/10 from me."

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get them from Amazon for $21.92+ each (available in two sizes and five colors).

Promising review: "The scissors are so sharp! I bought them for their beauty, but they quickly escalated to my favorites. I crochet daily and like to have scissors in all of my work areas. These are perfect!" —Yolanda Austin

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get them from Amazon for $10.98.

7. A chic faux leather mini crossbody bag for storing their essentials, because bulky totes are just *not* their thing. Plus, it's graced Oprah's Favorite Things list, and if it's good enough for Oprah, well... 👀

Prime members: You can try before you buy

Promising review: "This was a perfect purse for traveling. It has three very spacious zippered pockets. I was able to carry my iPhone, AirPods, glasses (in their case), and mini coin purse that carries my cash, ID, and bank card. I loved that it had a long-enough strap to wear it like a crossbody bag. Good construction and material." —M. Steffes

Another promising review: "I love this little bag. It’s just small enough to hold everything you want to carry. The price is right and it looks like an expensive bag." —Sharon Pate-Martin

Brightland

Brightland is a WOC-owned small business that sources olives for their oils from a family-run farm in California. 

Promising review: "I have yet to find another olive oil with better flavor than Brightland Co. I find myself making meals specifically just to use this lovely olive oil. It is a total game changer. Say goodbye to that nasty bitter flavor that comes with most commercial oils, and hello to an explosion of flavors, and spice. (Surprisingly spicy!) Ordering and shipping are always a breeze, you can also easily adjust the subscription to suit your needs. I’m so happy to have found this product, it honestly makes everything taste better." —Jen

Promising review: "My favorite pair of glasses ever. I have designer ones that I’m always afraid of scratching, but these look just like designer dupes, I wear them everywhere!" —Stephanie

Another promising review: "I got the black gradient — super comfortable, look awesome, and super on-trend. I am a sunglass hoarder — the ones in my current rotation are from Dior, Fendi, Ray-Ban, and Quay. These $15 sunglasses have been the ones I have been reaching for most these past few weeks." —Lisa

Get them from Amazon for $8.79+ (available in three styles).

Promising review: "I bought this product as a gift and I am so happy with the quality. The plant hanger is well made and looks sturdy. It holds even smaller pots securely. I will be buying more for myself and for other gifts. Can't say enough good things about this product!" —Amazon Customer

It comes with 15 massage heads and 20 speed levels to try out and weighs just two pounds!

Promising review: "I’ve never used a massage gun before, but this felt very similar to getting a professional deep tissue massage! I felt immediate relief from places that I didn’t even realize I was holding tension. Great product and it’s very well made! I’d recommend this massage gun for anyone experiencing pain, or even those seeking to unwind and relieve stress. Even better that it’s always available at your fingertips, and in the comfort of your own home. Very impressed!" —William Roccaforte

It includes Ginger Chai, Maharani Oolong Chai, and Sweet Cinnamon Masala Chai.

Promising review: "I was going to give this tea as a present but truly couldn't wait to open and try it, so I did. The packaging is beautiful so it is a perfect gift for a tea lover, but the real 'gift' is the tea itself. The tea is amazing. Just the right amount of spice for the chai. I will definitely buy this product again." —Steph Harrison

Get it from Amazon for $22.95+ (available in four colors). 

18. A handheld milk frother so they can avoid — gasp — waiting in an unbearably long line at Starbucks (the horror!). With this, they can enjoy their fancy cappuccinos in the comfort of their own home.

Promising review: "Best frother that I've ever used...very comfortable to use and powerful, too. Got this to replace another branded one that zonked out on me after only a couple of months. Love love this frother. I use it to 'blend' my morning coffee with coconut oil. This frother is more powerful than my last. The stand is a nice little bonus to keep the frother off the table and from rolling off the counter. The handle is very comfortable to hold. The back (if the label is facing you), has an index finger rest. I highly recommend this frother." —N Duong

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 43 styles).

19. A Trtl neck pillow to prevent them from awkwardly dozing off on their flight neighbor's shoulder when they can't score a first-class ticket 😫. Plus, it'll double as a scarf (planes are COLD), and it's much sleeker-looking than those puffy U-shaped pillows.

Promising review: "I can't stop recommending this pillow to all of my friends! It has let me comfortably sleep on flights that take place on the most uncomfortable airplane seats. On long flights, I always need to prop up my hand and I rest my head on it. But this method always ends with my arm falling asleep and I end up waking up every 30 minutes. Now this pillow provides that exact same support without needing my arms to prop me up! It's small enough to fit in your bag and doesn't take up much space." —Simona Krifman

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in four colors) — don't forget to apply the coupon to save 10%!

20. A gorgeous, compact Beast blender, because the only kitchen appliances they'll allow are the ones that look like they belong in a modern art museum. Oh, and it's also powerful enough for blitzing up ice so finely, it'll keep the "smooth" in their morning smoothies.

Amazon

P.S. The blending bowl also doubles as a portable thermos and comes with a screw-on drinking lid and carry cap.

I got this blender over the summer, and wow, as someone who had firmly decided I was an "I don't need a blender" person, I quickly changed my mind after the first use. For starters, it's not as large as those super industrial-strength blenders, and it's so aesthetically-pleasing that I have it out on my counter at all times. Plus, it couldn't be easier to use — just fill the bowl with your ingredients, pulse, and in a matter of ~moments~ you'll have a perfectly uniform blend of whatever you're trying to blitz. I first tried it out on a smoothie made with frozen bananas and peaches (see it in action on TikTok here!), and it pulverized the icy fruit like a champ. Best of all? It's a total breeze to clean, which, if I'm being honest, was probably the biggest factor in my having waited so long to add a blender to my kitchen arsenal. I can't recommend it enough, 15/10, no notes. 

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get it from Amazon for $195 (available in three colors).

21. A foot-massaging machine with a heat function to give them a truly best-in-class foot-pampering experience.

model using the foot massager while sitting at a desk
Amazon

The detachable foot sleeves can be thrown into the wash to keep things from getting too smelly, and there are three kneading and squeezing intensity levels to choose from.

Promising review: "This is an incredible machine for foot pain. It ranges in pressure from 'firm, relaxing massage' to deep kneading. I have issues with my feet and a lot of pain as a result, so I use the medium setting with heat for 15 minutes and then the high setting with heat for 15 minutes. Best 30 minutes of my day. The pressure can be intense at times on the high setting, however, it is exactly what my feet need. Very impressed." —veber

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get it from Amazon for $129.99+ (available in three colors). 

22. A sleek serving tray that looks way more expensive than it is but will make them feel *so* glamorous every time they serve themselves breakfast in bed.

Reviewer photo of the green and gold tray in a living room
Reviewer close-up of the green and gold tray

Promising review: "The tray is an attractive contemporary design and easy to handle. Glasses, mugs, and smaller breakfast/lunch/appetizer plates or bowls fit on it. I both got one for myself and for my best friend’s birthday. My lovely friend who has a low-key aesthetic, mid-century house in California really did love the tray. She told me she uses it to bring her breakfast out of her kitchen most mornings to a more relaxing spot." —N. Erdmann

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get it from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in two sizes and four designs).

23. A Shaker & Spoon Cocktail Club subscription to give them some inspiration for what to make with all of their prized bottles.

What they'll get: Every month they'll receive three cocktail recipes and all of the ingredients with which to make them, aside from the liquor. Ingredients include syrups, bitters, mixers, garnishes, and more.

Based in Brooklyn, NY, Shaker & Spoon features a different liquor every month to show just how versatile each one can be when paired with the right ingredients. 

Promising review: "Our son gave us a gift subscription and then renewed it when we said how much we enjoyed it. We have recommended the monthly box to so many people and intend to give subscriptions as gifts to friends. Not only are the boxes well crafted and detailed, but the company has amazing customer service. We have done an awful lot of subscription boxes ranging from wine, clothes, and personal items to snacks and bespoke gifts. This is the first one that we have wanted to stick with!" —Marta V.

Shipping info: If you need a box by a certain date, reach out to Shaker & Spoon by clicking the Contact Seller button (at the bottom of the page) and they'll hook you up with a different box from their vault. For last-minute gifts, there's also an option to download and print out a PDF note to let them know it's on its way!

24. A *beyond* plush faux fur throw blanket they'll love curling up with every night — that is, if their super-spoiled poodle isn't already hogging it.

Promising review: "I bought this blanket last week and it is SO cozy. It is extremely warm and our guests raved about it all weekend. My best friend's four-year-old son has requested this for his fifth birthday next week! It’s great quality and doesn’t shed whatsoever like some faux fur blankets do. I have it draped over our guest bedroom bed and it looks so luxurious and adds depth and texture to the bed. I will absolutely be buying these as gifts in the future. We want them in every room!" —Sarah Fry

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Promising review: "First of all, let me say that these are BEAUTIFUL and look even better in person. They look so expensive and I get compliments every time I wear them. Secondly, I have terribly sensitive ears and these don’t bother me at all. Love love love!" —Ashley Anderson

It can fit practically any 750-milliliter bottle of wine.

Promising review: "Top marks! This wine/bottle cooler is both an elegant AND practical addition for any occasion where you want cooled wine, champagne, or other beverages close at hand. I used it at Thanksgiving for the first time and my company remarked how nice it looked. I like its 'clean' elegant design and it’s more effective than what I’ve used in the past. I also think it would make a lovely hostess or holiday gift!" —Bev

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in stainless steel or a copper finish). 

28. A sleek fountain pen, because the very idea that they would ever write with anything even remotely resembling a ballpoint is simply ludicrous.

Amazon

This pen does *not* come with ink, but it does include a converter to fill it with bottled ink, as well as a storage case. Ink cartridges are sold separately. 

Promising review: "I LOVE this pen. I’m a professional writer — I spent 22 years as a business journalIst, am a published author, and now work as a columnist and editorial director for a financial publisher. I say all that not to boast, but to underscore why I love pens so much. I collect them. And I really enjoy trying out new types and new brands. I’m 'old school,' in that I still take notes by hand. And I have to admit that I 'doodle' as I’m taking notes during meetings. (I’ve seen studies that say doodling actually boosts your information-retention rate.) So I sample LOTS of pens. And I can say with sincerity that this fountain pen is a great value for the money. It’s heavy (which I like). With the cap on the top, it’s long — which I also like. And it’s such a smooth writer — as good as or better than some really expensive fountain pens that I have. Add in the very affordable price, and this pen checks all the boxes in terms of what I look for." —The Famed Tollgate Terror

Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Christmas (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in five styles and 12 colors).

I bought one of these as a gift for my dad last year, and he loved it — plus, it arrived less than a week after I ordered it!

It's made by Henney's Boutique, a small biz based in LA specializing in handy leather goods. 

Promising review: "I love this! I bought one for myself, then one for my husband, then I've been sending the link to everyone who asks me where I got it... They're the best for keeping both your passport and your vaccine card safe for travel." —Paige Devlin

Shipping info: All domestic orders are shipped within 24 hours of payment for free using USPS first-class mail. Expedited shipping is available at checkout for an additional cost. Orders are typically delivered within 3–5 business days.

Get it from Henney's Boutique on Etsy for $8+ (available in 21 colors, and with extra slots). 

30. A best-in-class KitchenAid stand mixer, because you overheard them saying they want to try making macarons from scratch. With this, they'll be able to do that and so much more — plus it'll instantly liven up their counter!

In addition to whisk and paddle attachments, it comes with a dough hook for all of the bread lovers out there, as well as a pouring shield, which keeps flour from getting all over their counter (and them!). 

Promising review: "I really debated on spending so much money on a mixer. Would it really be worth it?? For sure it is! I can't say enough great things about this mixer. First of all, love the color! It's a great accent piece in my kitchen. I have made cookies, bars, cakes, and mashed potatoes in the few weeks that I have had it. It mixes the batter so much better than I ever could with my hand mixer! And I think the food actually tastes better! For a busy mom, it almost seems to be saving me time, because it mixes while you can gather other ingredients, etc. It takes me less time to bake and the clean up is easier since it's just one bowl and mixing paddle. Well, worth the money, I wish I would have decided to get one sooner!" —Prof. G

31. A splurge-worthy towel warmer so they can have that tingly spa experience right at home 🥰. Seriously, this will become their new "Whatever did I do without this?" favorite thing.

model taking a towel out of the towel warmer

It fits two large bath towels at a time (getting out of the shower will never be the same!) and they can program the heat in 15-minute intervals up to an hour.

Promising review: "Absolutely love this warmer. I got this as a Christmas present for myself and use it every time I shower. It is definitely worth the price. I usually put clothing inside first, unravel a towel and place it in next, then turn the warmer on before I shower. In 15–20 minutes, the towel is HOT. If you’re contemplating purchasing this warmer, do yourself a favor and submit your payment ASAP!" —Brittvny Thomvs

32. A marble mortar and pestle set, because they recently took a private cooking class and told you they'll only allow ~freshly ground~ spices in their kitchen from now on.

Promising review: "This could not be more perfect! It's beautiful — actually I had planned on keeping it in the kitchen cabinet, but it's so attractive I will be leaving it on the kitchen counter. It is sturdy, well made, and I love that the inside isn't polished, as well as the bottom of the pestle. The brush and spoon make it easy to get every last little bit out of the pills I have to crush for my dog. Don't hesitate to purchase this item. It is definitely a giftable item. If I received one as a gift, I would have been thrilled!" —messgnabottle2u

It's vegan and gluten free!

Promising review: "When you’re older and look back on life, there are special moments that stand out — graduating college, getting married, having a child, or getting promoted to name a few. After tasting the Hotter Sauce, I immediately knew that this was going to be one of those moments. Now I know what many of you are thinking — NO WAY — it can’t be that good. The cold hard truth is that it is! Hotter Sauce is a culinary experience, unlike anything else. Seriously, have a life-changing moment and try the Hotter Sauce!" —Blake Driver

37. And finally, a Mike's Hot Honey gift basket filled with all sorts of gourmet goodies, like a bottle of chili-infused honey, spicy salami, candied pecans, sea salt crackers, and dijon mustard — aka the makings of the bougiest charcuterie board ever.

It also comes with a recipe book!

Promising review: "So I bought this to bring to a dinner party to complement a meat-and-cheese board and unfortunately it never made it to the party. I had to try the candied pecans and wow are they good. I just ate them all out of the bag but they are perfect for anything. The sausage is a very generous size and amazing on the crackers with Mike's Hot Honey. Needless to say I kept this one myself and have already bought another. I think I will buy one for all my employees this holiday season — it will be a great gift!" —GBlanck
