{gift guide: amazon}

If you need something fast because you've waited to shop until the last second... Amazon to the rescue! They always have everything you could possibly need. (However, due to the pandemic right now - I highly encourage you to shop locally! If you can pop into a small business to grab a quick gift for someone then that gift will go even farther this year)

A couple of highlights on this gift guide:

Yeti Mug // I was given this for Christmas two years ago and I'm still just as obsessed with it. It keeps my tea (since I don't drink coffee) warm all morning as I'm sitting on a ton of Zoom calls. It's also great if you're taking a walk and want to bring a hot toddy with you ;)

Polaroid Camera // I actually gifted this to Kyle a year or two ago! We've had some fun documenting memories when we don't want to be on our phones. It's nice to get a physical picture quickly and put it on the fridge. Love that this gift can work for guys or girls.

Record Player // Since we're spending more time at home it's been really fun to invest in new records and play some of my mom's old ones. It's a nice way to listen to music and appreciate it more right now vs constantly skipping and changing the song.

Slouchy Purse // This is super trendy right now and I love that it's a relaxed shape to a purse. You can take off the chain and carry it as a clutch or use it as a shoulder bag.

Love Always,

{gift guide: under 50}

I'm a huge fan of when gifts have budgets. It's a smart way to keep yourself in check but still allow yourself to get a gift for a friend, sister, boyfriend, etc. You don't have to spend hundreds of dollars to find a meaningful or fun gift!

A couple of highlights on this gift guide:

Pink Twisty Candle // I've seen this candle shape in so many colors and every time I stop to stare at it. This would be perfect for all ages I think - for the new apt renter, for the trendy grandmother, or the guy that has cool taste and needs to fill up a bookshelf.

Flower Arrangement Diffuser // I love how simple this gift is. Something beautiful for a desk, side table, or shelf yet it also doubles as a diffuser. Multitasking at it's finest!

Nude Lipstick Set ($28) // If your budget is only $50 for a whole group of friends then get this "best of nudes" set and give each girlfriend a lipgloss and pack of gum. Fingers crossed we can get the girls together for a night out in 2021 right?!

Heated Back Massager // This item was crazy popular last year and I'm bringing it back. I've seen every dad and mom rave about this... I kind of want it myself haha.

Love Always,

{gift guide: hostess}

We all have that wonderful person in our lives that can make any gathering feel like the most intimate event. The person that "just whips up some things" and you think it had to have taken them days. The hostess that has a bowl, pitcher, dish, etc. for everything (well, once you get them a gift from this guide!) These gems should be protected at all cost because they create your home away from home and feed you the best appetizers!

A couple of highlights on this gift guide:

Cocktail Napkin Holder // We have a napkin holder identical to this and I love that it helps our guests know that there's always a napkin to use as a coaster or something to wipe your fingers on. It just creates a sense of comfort for a guest that if they need a napkin - it's right there. Plus, it looks messy if a bunch of napkins are thrown across the counter so this keeps it clean (and easy to put out or away as necessary).

Wine Purifier // I've noticed more people being sensitive to wines as I get older. With this nifty gift you simply pour your wine through it as your serving - it helps removes sulfites that can cause a headache and later a hangover!

Agate Cheese Knives ($17) // So stunning - this is one way to liven up that cheese board!

4-piece Wine Tool Kit // This kit is budget friendly and makes opening wine an ease. Your hostess will never worry about a guest not being able to open a bottle of wine at ease with this tool on hand!

Love Always,

{gift guide: white elephant}

 I think this gift guide was the most requested... white elephants are the best way to exchange with coworkers and friends since you don't have to buy multiple presents. Just one and then you can swap, steal, switch, or whatever depending on how you play! I didn't include "gag gifts" on here because that's not my style ;) but these are unique gifts that are sure to work for any group setting!

PS Look for this symbol on all of my 2020 Gift Guides for even MORE ideas that would work perfectly for a White Elephant. Budget friendly - of course!

A couple of highlights on this gift guide:

La Croix Cross Stitch // This has become a quarantine hobby for tons of people so why not make it cheeky with everyone's favorite sparkling water!

Jenga with a Twist // I love games... I think it's the best way to bring people together at a party that don't know each other! I love that these blocks have things already written on them to take the game to another level.

BruMate Slim Can // If I could even find the words to describe how much I love this product... lol okay I'll try ;) I first discovered this company last summer and was instantly hooked. A koozie for my White Claw? Sold. I got Kyle two of these in matte navy blue last Christmas for us to use on boat days! We tested them out one day... opened the cans (in the BruMate) and left them sitting on the console of the boat in the scorching hot sun for two hours while we snorkeled. When we came back up and took that first sip... ice cold! I was absolutely blown away. Plus, this is very budget friendly! They have sooo many cute colors and tons of other products! Maybe I need to do a gift guide solely for the BruMate hehe.

Tripod - $24 // Okay so this isn't for everyone BUT if you have a teen in your life or even someone like me who uses a tripod to take their own pictures this is the BEST one I've found. It's super sturdy and can go up to 6' tall. I love it!

Cordless Wine Opener // Enough said. Makes life so easy! Maybe add a bottle of wine to the present to really up the gift!

Love Always,

{gift guide: for the cocktail critic}

 With so much time spent at home this year (and the creation of Isolation Hydration - a video series on my Instagram with cocktail creations) everyone is a professional bartender in the comforts of their own home! This gift guide is for the creator, the scotch guru, the new homeowner with a brand new bar cart, or even the person in your life that just drinks wine!

A couple of highlights on this gift guide:

Rose Gold Bar Cart Set // If the person you're gifting to is just starting to dabble in cocktails or has a new house/bar cart then this is a great place to start. At $26 this looks a lot more expensive and is stunning just sitting out. AKA make them look like a pro even if they never touch it. However, it has everything you do need to make a bomb cocktail the right way. Shaker, stir stick, strainer, ice tongs, stopper, jig, etc. The rose gold is a gorgeous touch.

Sangria Pitcher // I use our hand painted pitcher for pouring up a big batch of premade cocktails (just hold the soda water to preserve bubbles and serve over each individual glass). It doubles as an open shelf decoration AND a stunning vase for flowers.

Rose Gold Coupe Glasses // These pretty and delicate glasses are commonly used for serving "up" drinks, meaning cocktails that are shaken or stirred until chilled and then served without ice. They're fancy and not entirely necessary... but I'm dying for a stunning set like these!

Wine and Liquor Decanters // If you're a wine enthusiast then you know the importance of a decanter. Open a nice bottle and pour it into the decanter to let it breathe. This is also a common practice with liquor - but you can leave it in a stunning glass container year round.

Copper Mugs // no Mule is complete without a copper mug! I was so excited when I found this set of 4 because it also comes with 4 copper straws and a matching copper shot glass! That's amazing for $47! The copper helps keep your drinks extra icy while you drink them. Plus, a specialty cup just feels festive! I love making my Moscow Mules with Tito's, Crabbie's ginger beer, lime, and mint!

Love Always,
