Candles
Everyone needs an amazing aroma in their room. Nothing beats the warm scents of the holidays. The Pixie Candle Studio Holiday Collection is the perfect way to warm up any room and get in the festive mood, plus each candle comes in a sophisticated white jar with an elegant glass coche cover. If you’re looking for more woodsy and year-round scents, opt for the San Soli candles, made in Grasse, France.
New Scents
We think the perfect way to start the new year is with a new scent. Gift your bestie a taste of the new perfume WHO IS ELIJAH. Dreamt up by Raquel Bouris on a sun-soaked weekend in the Coachella Valley and later brought to life in Sydney, Australia, this independently-owned fragrance house has been disrupting the norms of luxury perfume ever since. With its minimalistic approach to cruelty-free scents that blur the lines between masculinity and femininity, this is perfect for anyone in your life.
Chic Luggage
Holiday season is some of the busiest travel time of the year, so what better gift to give then a high-quality carry-on luggage? We’re loving NOMATIC luggage, which helps you fit 20% more than other carry-ons. With chic styles like the Method Cary-On and the Carry-On Classic, these are the perfect gift for everyone on your list.
Classy Glasses
Giving a gorgeous set of glassware is one classy move. We just discovered the brand Mon Verre – a luxe customizable brand that designs modern wine and cocktail glasses handcrafted from the finest European crystal. They can also personalize the glasses with engravings to make gifts feel extra special. These glasses add that gorgeous sparkle to any hostess’ tablescape and we love that they already come wrapped in silk dust bags. Choose from champagne flutes, martini glasses, wine glasses and more!
