But if you really are stuck on what to get your people, then check out these ideas we have for holiday gift giving. Here is our holiday gift guide for every LA girl.
Gifts for Everyone
The Macklowe Kentucky Limited Edition Gift Box
This is the perfect (and luxurious) gift for the whiskey connoisseurs in your life. The epitome of sophistication and taste, this meticulously hand-crafted wooden box combines timeless elegance with exceptional whiskey aficionado essentials. Inside, you will discover The Macklowe Kentucky Edition, a rare and exquisitely aged Kentucky bourbon, perfectly complemented by two custom Macklowe engraved Ventum Riedel glasses–the ultimate vessels for savoring your favorite spirits. Elevate your Holiday moments and enjoy the taste of luxury with this exceptional ensemble!
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.
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!
Festive Coffee Syrups
If you have a coffee lover in your life, this is the gift for them. Sips coffee syrups are the perfect addition to your favorite cup of coffee for the holidays, and all year-round. With festive holiday packs (and mini-packs), including flavors like Candy Cane, Cannoli, Sugar Cookie, and Hazelnut Toffee (we’re drooling already), you can’t go wrong. You can also gift the traditional pack with flavors like Warm Brown Sugar, Vanilla Bean, and Apple Cinnamon Crisp.
Classic Watches
