Advent Calendars
Luxury beauty, hair and body, and tinned fish advent calendars that make the countdown to Christmas so fun. The perfect early gift for her.
I have wanted the Harrods beauty advent calendar for years. It is packed with full-size luxury beauty and skincare, so it is the ultimate gift for the beauty lover, or a treat for yourself after a long year.
The Harrods Beauty Advent Calendar 2026
If you love a long shower routine like I do, this 12 days of hair and body calendar from Harrods is such a fun way to try new luxury products.

For the foodie friend, this 12 days of Fishwife advent calendar is so fun. Each day is a new tinned fish to try on toast.

Hostess Gifts & Foodie Gifts
Easy, thoughtful hostess gifts and foodie gifts for holiday parties: mixology cubes, mulling syrup and caviar.
I love Fishwife caviar for a fancy date night in or a New Year’s Eve appetizer with chips and creme fraiche.
Fishwife Caviar
I bring Teaspressa mixology cubes to every holiday party now. Drop one in sparkling water or prosecco and you have a fancy drink in seconds. Hosts always love them.

This mulling syrup turns cider or wine into a cozy holiday drink in minutes. I tuck it into gift baskets with a mug.

Stocking Stuffers & Cozy Home Gifts
Cute holiday home gifts and stocking stuffers: a fabric photo frame, holiday hand towels, festive candles, a dog sweater and the rhode on-the-go set.
I am obsessed with this hand-knit holiday sweater for dogs. Jimbo needs it for our Christmas card photos this year!
Anthropologie Hand-Knit Holiday Phrase Pet Sweater
I love gifting this fabric wrapped frame with a printed photo of a favorite memory inside. It feels so personal and costs under $70.
Anthropologie Merceda Fabric Wrapped Picture Frame
The peppermint swirl hand towel is the easiest way to make a guest bathroom feel festive. I always grab a few as small gifts for neighbors.
Anthropologie Holiday Printed Cotton Hand Towel
These whimsical taper candles make any holiday table look magical. I pair them with the hand towel for a cute hostess gift.
Anthropologie Festive Icon Taper Candles, Set of 2
The rhode on-the-go set is my favorite stocking stuffer for skincare girls. Everything is travel size and fits in a purse.
