I’m so excited to launch our 1st annual gift guide! These are just a few of my favorite things right now. I tried to put something for everyone and hopefully inspire you.

For the dazzler:
These gold-plated, faux diamond bangle bracelets from Jennifer Miller could be a staple in anyone’s wardrobe. They come in yellow and white gold and are the perfect way to dress up any outfit! Plus, there are tons of bracelets so you can always split them in half and give them as two gifts!
For the stilleto-junkie:
City Slips is a brilliant concept created by someone who clearly knows the wrath of stilettos. These flat and elastic banded shoes come in a carrying case that folds up to fit in almost every handbag. Then, the second you are ready to ditch the stilettos, put these comfy flats on and carry your “killer shoes” home in the bag.
Maybe you just “have to have” those killer stilettos. I’ve had my eye on these satin ones from Tory Burch with crystal signature medallions at Shopbop.com.
For the TV buff:
I’m not sure if anyone has seen each and every episode of Friends more times than my sisters, but if not then I found the perfect gift! Right now buy all 236 episodes on 40 disks for $100!!! Only catch is that the offer is only available in stores at Target, but honestly, EVERY SEASON for $100, organized neatly in a great case and booklets. Get Out!
For the coffee/tea lover:
Why not let them enjoy their beverage of choice out of this fabulous and happy hand painted mug from Robert Siegel Ceramics!
For the chef:
Something cupcake themed (duh!). Why not stay clean in style, with this fabulously amazing apron from Jessie Steele.

Plus, tote your cupcakes safely and in style with this cupcake tray from Martha Stewart at Macy’s.
For the lover of nature:
Create your own miniature (dessert friendly) succulent garden, with this kit via succulent love. (while you’re there check out the gorgeous wedding designs all created with these amazing plants!)
For the designer:
Pick up a copy of the oh-so-chic new book Hue by Kelly Wearstler. Ooh and ahh (and possibly even drool) over her incredible designs.
For any and everyone:
One of my favorite products in the world is Jo Malone’s vitamin E lip balm. I consider myself a lip balm connoisseur and once I tried Jo Malone, I’ve never gone back. This balm is silk, smooth and even has SPF. I have one in every bag and never leave home without it. Trust me, it’s amazing!
