Holiday Gift Guide: For the Home

When we traveled to Bangkok and visited the weekend market, the husband and I shopped quite a few decor pieces for our home. Needless to say, home gifts are my favorite kinds of gifts to receive at the moment. We like to collect items from our travel and use it for decorating our home. If you know someone who has the same inclination for home decor pieces, this guide is for you. This holiday season, home gifts are definitely going to be appreciated by them: 

1 - Gift Boutique XOXO Trinket Tray
2 - Gift Boutique Stripe Pillow
3 - Fringe Hello Love Candle
4 - Carla Carstens Marble Coasters
5 - Sunny Life Neon Rainbow Light
6 - Gift Boutique Spindle Storage Box
7 - Kate Spade Desktop Calendar
8 - Indego Africa Colorblock Basket
9 - Gift Boutique Pearl Hanger Set

I have my eye on that pillow and marble coaster set. Did not find any you like? There's more here!

Holiday Gift Guide: Vegan

Shopping gifts for a vegan can be admittedly difficult. But it doesn't have to be. There are more options available now than ever with several brands like 88 opting to use cruelty-free methods and materials for manufacturing their items. Their line of luxury vegan handbags is something that I was initially introduced to. If you're a frequent reader of my blog, then you know I'm a big fan of 88's Cathy Saddle Bag (as seen here, here and here). The best part is that their items are really affordable - there is simply no reason to support vegan brands!

That's all the chatter right now, I'll let you have a peek at some of the pieces I dug up from the website, which I'm sure you'll love too - best part? None of these cost $60 and more!

Holiday Gift Guide: Home Decor

Now that I am married, I always love receiving home decor gifts. We got plenty of items from our gift registry and we couldn't be more thrilled about that. Decorating our home is my number one priority right now, especially when it comes to setting up our bedroom and home office. If you are like me, who is also into home decor accent pieces, you're in for some luck. I have scoured Nordstrom Rack's website to find home decor pieces that would make for great holiday gifts, too:

Coincidentally, as I am writing this post, we will be out to buy a few homewares. This will be an exciting time! I can't wait to gather a few more home decor pieces to fill our new home. 

 

Holiday Gift Guide: Jewelry

When I got married, I gifted my bridesmaids and maid of honor earrings that they can wear on my wedding day so they could all wear the same type of jewelry. Therefore, jewelries make a great and classic gift idea for the holidays, especially if you are willing to splurge a little on your gifts for that special someone. With the abundance of jewelry stores online like Lulu Frost (for those looking for higher end jewelries) and Amy O Jewelry and Blue Box Jewels (for those looking for reasonably priced gift options), you are sure to find something to fit into your budget and delight the recipient.
