Bought that lip mask in vanilla and highly recommend! Bought more as stocking stuffers.
I also tried to order one yesterday and it doesn't ship until February 2020!
I love this list! How did I not know the existed a solution for tangled layered necklaces?! And is it bad that I want to order the locket for myself?
The Luna Mini 2 is on Amazons deal of the day today!
The Luna Mini is currently the Amazon deal of the day! $90
WOW! i'll have to share!
Weird question but with the standing mirror do you feel like you have to bend way over to use it vs standing in front of a wall mirror? Or do you sit down?
It’s best used when sitting down. They also have really Great Wall mount ones in the same brand if that works better
That locket just shot to the top of my wish list. Thank you!
Always great...except I don’t understand what you do with the necklace clasp...????. Is that so you can see what the necklaces look like before wearing them?
I've been eyeing the jewelry case from Mark & Graham (#11) but if you search for reviews for that site they are AWFUL. Yet it seems to be a part of Pottery Barn? I cant figure it out.
I used to order a lot from Mark and Graham but in the last few years the quality has gotten terrible. I have ordered three different items in the last two years (a marble/wood cutting board housewarming gift for a friend, a dob kit for my sister and cocktail napkins for my aunt). In all cases the product itself was fine (except the cutting board which had filler all over where the two materials didn’t meet well) but the personalization was just shoddy (noticeably off center, monogram smudged, threading badly done). In the case of the cutting board I sent it back (they were nice about it but then again the pictures were pretty clear!) and the replacement was still bad! I used to LOVE their products for gifts but now I am staying away. I hope they get better or others have better luck!
I have other items from mark and graham and love them! They are a sister company to pottery barn, etc. My only issue with the jewelry case is it won't ship until Valentine's day!
I’ve always had great luck with them! I ordered 5 of the jewelry cases for Christmas gifts. Four are already here (!!!!) and one (mine) was backordered til Valentines Day in the lavender color.
Just had to update and say that my jewelry box scheduled for Valentines Day delivery came today 11/30!
Lovely list. Thanks so much for these ideas! Julia you were wearing a beautiful engravable disc necklace on your stories the other day with your girls' initials on them. Surprised this didn't make the list! Would you be able to share the seller here?
I included it on past gift guides and like to keep every one fresh and full of new ideas, but I'm actually working on a list of my favorite things and it's on there! From this etsy shop!
Thank you so much! It's going to make the perfect match to that jewelry box ;) Happy holidays.
I love your blog so much, but this post made me feel a little uncomfortable. Most of the items here are not for the average gift buyer (who has tons of gifts on their list). So many things here are either so expensive, or just a waste of money, and can be found elsewhere for much reasonable prices. A mirror for 250$? Jewelry case for 70? Scrunchies for 40? Rubber scrubber for 140? I love all your shopping reccomendations, Julia, you have an amazing sense of style, but I wouldn't buy most of this list. Sorry. I love splurging, but with reason.
