2022 One Last List
As I write this, we are 13 days away from Christmas, which means you have about 10 days to buy, receive, wrap, and gift your presents for other this year. I gave you eight fully fleshed out gift guides this year, but I continued bookmarking things along the way, which has led me to offer you ONE LAST LIST. On here, you’ll find everything from gorgeous coffee table books and even more cozy blankets, to wine paraphernalia and stunning lipstick, and a lot more. I hope this legitimately guides you right into the holiday. Let’s go.
I bought these for myself to wear this coming weekend at my cousin’s wedding, and they are SO pretty. I’m obsessed. Make them a stocking stuffer for someone deserving!
These are INSANELY soft and such a cute gift for teens, tweens, and moms. I got myself a set (size medium) and cannot wait to be festive and wear them Christmas morning!
This is an Amazon favorite and has tons of great reviews for a reason—it’s such a perfect layering dress. For the fashionista in your life, this is a great gift to give. She can wear it on its own, with a jacket or cardigan draped across her shoulders, or with a full sweater pulled over it for a wintery look!
My mom experimented with this lipstick recently, and I loved it so much, I got myself a few tubes. If she’s into lipstick in a big way, this is a super thoughtful splurge gift to give her. The colors I have and love right now are 306R Rose Clash - poppy pink, and 22A Rosso Valentino - a true warm universal Valentino red. All of the shades are SUPER saturated and stay on!
They make a lot of cute oven mitts these days, but sometimes they’re all for show and can’t really handle hot plates. These can, though, which is why they have over 14k reviews on Amazon. A lovely gift!
Speaking of gloves and mitts, these “fireplace gloves” by L.L. Bean arouse me in a weird way. They’re just so… manly. And immediately transport me to a cozy log cabin in the snowy woods. If he’s the outdoorsy type who is always chopping wood to make fires, these are a very cool gift.
BOY SMELLS HOLIDAY VOTIVE CANDLES
You get a set of three STUNNIN’ candles with this gift, and I can only imagine how incredible they smell. I love Boy Smells candles more than anything, and I have a feeling these deliver.
We all have that one spoon rest from Anthro. Mix it up this year and give a new homeowner their home state instead of something plain or too floral-heavy! They’re all handmade from stoneware, too.
Anthro’s Primrose mirror is extravagantly priced, but the vanity trays are much more reasonable and equally beautiful. In fact, I would like one @ anyone who is wondering what to get me this year.
Bingo featuring animal poop? Some child in your life will treasure this forever.
Okay, this is genius. You stick this sucker in the ground outside and it holds your bottle of wine, two wine glasses, and a snack. WHAT!? This is great for home but also for cute neighborhood concerts, etc! It’s also collapsible so it won’t take up too much space when they’re storing it!
Speaking of wine, THESE WINE GLASSES. I mean, what? They are so beautiful. The colorful stems. The shape of the glass itself. They are so contemporary and different, and your fanciest wine loving friend deserves them.
Art + plants = this vase. I’ve never seen anything like it and it really caught my eye while I was browsing. This is the perfect present for someone, we just need to figure out who.
This is a specific gift, but if you know them to be a chef who loves roasting their garlic, it instantly becomes a perfect gift.
If your teen/tween is getting into makeup, may I suggest this stunning blue eyeliner I just recently purchased myself? The color is a cobalt blue called “Perpetual Shock!” and is waterproof, long-lasting, and super pigmented so it really pops on the eye.
These are another great gift idea for your teen/tween/gen Z’er/etc. Or for an elder millennial like me since I got them the other day and am obsessed with them. I love the neutral tones SO much and the braided element is really fun and different.
LASER CUT CUSTOM SNOWFLAKE ORNAMENT
Zac’s sister got us this last year, and it’s one of our favorite ornaments! May not be ready in time for Christmas, but worth it in the end.
I was OBSESSED with this game in high school and was delighted to find out that they’re still making versions. I WANT IT. If you know a movie buff, this could be the perfect gift.
TASCHEN: 100 MOVIES OF THE 2000S
You really and truly can never go wrong getting someone a gorgeous, interesting TASCHEN coffee table book. This one features imagery and write-ups from 100 movies of the 2000s, which my elder millennial heart found highly interesting, but they have TONS.
GREAT ESCAPES ITALY COFFEE TABLE BOOK
Might be because I’m obsessed with Italy now, might be because this book is stunning no matter what but this is an awesome coffee table book to gift. It features all parts of Italy from the POV of incredible hotels. If this doesn’t inspire them to book a trip, IDK what will.
ROLLING STONES COFFEE TABLE BOOK
There’s a pattern on this last gift guide, but I just truly feel that people who are into books and home decor can never have too many coffee table books, and this Rolling Stones one made the list.
I saw this in person at Nordstrom and got so upset I didn’t own it. It just looks (and feels) amazingly soft and so cozy. I love that it’s weighted, too.
Anthro does no wrong with home decor, and these saturated sets of taper candles are no exception. If this is their home vibe, what a great gift!
Speaking of blankets, this one is just beyond. It’s so beautiful, so intricate, so grand. This belongs in an equally as colorful and impressive home!
I have APL slides and they are everything. I saw these were on sale and grabbed a pair of the blue ones for Zac! If your man is in the market for new slides, these are the upgrade.
NEW YORK TIMES CUSTOM BIRTHDAY BOOK
This one won’t be there in time for Christmas, but it’s worth it IMO. Zac got these for my entire family last year and they are such a cool, thoughtful present. How cool to see the headlines on your birthday over the years?! Also makes for yet another awesome coffee table book.
