Happy Thanksgiving Eve, everybody!
I hope you’re settled in with family and friends and that you’re making some favorite family recipes. And most of all, I hope you have your stretchy pants out and ready to go for tomorrow. 😉
Today I have 24 of my personal FAVORITE THINGS that I think would make great gifts!
And since lots of these faves are on sale for Black Friday, it’s a great time to grab them and start marking names off of your Christmas lists! (It might also be the perfect time to add stuff to your own lists!) 😉
After the collage, I’ll give you a personal review of each item, so make sure you scroll down!

1) puff sleeve sweatshirt / BLACK FRIDAY SALE ALERT! 30% OFF! Okay, ladies. I KNOW ME, and I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that this sweatshirt was going to be one of my favorite and most worn shirts of the season. And you know what? I was right! I’ve already worn this countless times. Is it flashy? No. Is it a great basic that happens to be flattering that I know I will reach for all the time? 1,000% YES.
This sweatshirt is soft, it’s cozy, and it’s cute. And while it is a sweatshirt, it is totally elevated with the slightly puffed sleeves (but they’re not aggressive at all) and the banded hem. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. And I’m not the only one that loves it, it has excellent reviews. It also comes in black, navy, and cherry tomato (which has been restocked in some sizes!). For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
sweatshirt / ankle flare cords / suede booties / hoops / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack
It’s a simple top, but it’s got a little bit of flare which I love. I saw last week that they added a new color option… FUSCHIA!
sweatshirt / Aliyah jeans / suede booties / skinny hoops / heart toggle necklace / bracelet set

2) neuLASH lash enhancing serum / SALE ALERT! Years ago my sister started using neuLASH, and it was the below text that got me to finally buy it for myself. Right now you can grab 2 for the price of 1! Keep both for yourself, or keep one and gift one!
So I initially bought the serum a couple of years ago, but it wasn’t until this fall (several months before my high school reunion) that I started using it consistently. AND WOWZA. Conner was right, it took a solid 3 months, but I definitely noticed a huge difference in my lash length. In fact, my lashes have recently started hitting my readers. Haha! 🙂
In this picture I’ve also used the mascara primer and the tubing mascara highlighted in today’s collage. Oh, and I’m wearing the Barefoot Dreams lounge set (#21 in the collage).
**********
3) heart toggle necklace / BLACK FRIDAY DEAL! 24% OFF! Several months ago I had a hair appointment, and my hair stylist (Amanda) was wearing the heart necklace. She told me she’s often disappointed with jewelry she has ordered in the past from Amazon because it looks and feels cheap, but she gave the heart necklace a shot because I was singing its praises. She LOVES it too and we agreed that it looks like a $100 necklace!
multicolor beaded necklace / heart toggle necklace
I’ve worn it in countless outfits all year long, but here it is styled in just one outfit…
If you’re an Aggie, I feel like this double ruffle shift dress is an IMMEDIATE yes. It’s perfect for Game Day. It’s lightweight, has double ruffle sleeves, great detail up top, and a swingy fit. What’s not to love. It also comes in black! It says true to size, so I got a medium. However, I do feel like the medium was a bit oversized, so I think I would prefer a small.

4) brushed gold Keurig / This little dynamo has over 60,000 reviews, and the vast majority are 5 STARS. It’s awesome and would make a great gift. I’m sad to say that it’s not on sale right now, and I’ve definitely seen it on sale before… so you might want to wait for a sale? All I know is it’s so pretty left out on the counter with the brushed gold finish.

5) fair isle sweater / FRIENDS. I’m always drawn to fair isle sweaters, and this one is EXTRA DARLING. The colors! The pattern! The fit! The soft feel! I love it all! And I’m totally swooning over how bright and happy it is.
It’s definitely more on the fitted side, which I’m not normally a fan of in a sweater, but I actually love this fit. Pay special attention to the ribbed crew neck, the ribbed wide hem, and the oversized ribbed cuffs. They all come together to make the sweater quite flattering.
For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. It’s size inclusive ranging from size xs to 4x. Oh, and get ready to be blown away by the price!!!
fair isle sweater / crop bootcut jeans / suede booties / glasses / hoops / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack
This sweater didn’t get nearly enough attention the first couple of times I talked about it. It looks very Boden to me (with fair isle prices that are closer to $200), but this one is seriously a fraction of the price.

6) Ethereal Glow Serum / 30% OFF SITEWIDE RIGHT NOW FOR BLACK FRIDAY! NO CODE NEEDED! This just might be my favorite new product of the entire year. YEP. THE ENTIRE YEAR. This Ethereal Glow Serum is truly incredible. You pretty much have to try it. You’re going to just have to trust me.
So right now you can grab it for $26.60 (regularly $38). And just a little over $25 for “skincare packed radiance” sounds like a straight up bargain to me.
It will give you an instant, soft-focus glow. It’s like a filter in a tube, friends! TRULY!
As you can see, it’s available in two universally flattering shades. Both are designed to complement a wide range of skin topes and styles.
The CHAMPAGNE is the lighter shade and gives a soft and radiant glow.
And below you can see BRONZE – for a warm, sun-kissed effect.
I use the “bronze” shade and mix it with my Lumi Glotion (shade medium) every single day. This combo is what I use now instead of traditional foundation. My skin looks radiant and healthy, and it’s not heavy at all like I find so many traditional foundations to be. This combo makes my skin look great and gives me so much confidence.
**********
7) must have joggers / My must have joggers are probably the most worn item in my closet and have been for at least 4-5 years now. Seriously, you MUST own a pair. I know they’ve been in the Top 12 several times over the last several years. They are pricey, but they are sooooooo worth it. Great for running around town, great for lounging at home, and great for travel days. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
I have them in several colors and wear them all the time, but my most worn color is the “charcoal heather”.
They have a slim but relaxed fit with a slightly cropped leg, side pockets, and drawstring. They are made of a premium stretch fabric, and you can trust me when I say that they’re going to be your new go-to.
These babies are the gateway product to the Vuori brand. Once you purchase the joggers and start wearing them, you will have an undeniable need to try more pieces from the brand. I can vouch for that because that’s how it went down for me. They definitely made me a believer.

And another way to style them…
relaxed fit tee / must have joggers / bag / no show socks / sneakers / huggie earrings / cross necklace / lip gloss
Below is how you will find me around the house most days. In a super comfy top and joggers.
hooded top (part of a set) / progressive readers / must have joggers
Here are the joggers one more time…
I’m wearing a medium in the hoodie and a small in the joggers.
hoodie / pave huggie earrings / performance joggers / sneakers
This an outfit formula that I’ve been wearing for years and years, and I’m guessing I’ve shown it on the blog at least 10x.
A favorite tee + A favorite denim jacket + MUST HAVE joggers = outfit perfection in my book.
denim jacket / crewneck tee / sunglasses / MUST HAVE performance joggers / On Cloud sneakers
If you don’t have them in your closet, add them to your list right now. And if you still need to buy something for your sister or mom, be a hero and buy them these.
denim jacket / crewneck tee / MUST HAVE performance joggers / On Cloud sneakers
I love them and wear them constantly.

And when I’m at the ranch, you can pretty much guarantee that I’m wearing them.

8) cozy throw / This incredible throw is right under $25, so it’s a great price point for a gift. It’s VERY similar to the Barefoot Dreams blanket that is much more expensive. I can’t think of a person on my list that wouldn’t love to cuddle up with this blanket.
**********
9) tipped crewneck sweater / BLACK FRIDAY DEAL ALERT! 33% OFF! This tipped crewneck sweater is my newest closet staple. It comes in several color colors, but I was immediately drawn to the pink and navy. It’s a perfectly relaxed and slouchy fit, and it’s great for those of you that don’t love doing a half-tuck. This sweater is meant to be worn out to show off the pop of color on the hem. I would suggest sizing way down in this. I’m in an x-small, and you can see that it’s still quite roomy.
My crop bootcut jeans are a very soft denim with great stretch, so they hug your curves in all the right places. Also, the denim is a good weight, so you fill held in. The seams on each side of the bottom of each leg are my favorite part. It’s such a nice detail, and they really modernize the whole look. For size reference, I’m wearing a 4.

10) stain treater / BLACK FRIDAY DEAL! 23% OFF! Look at how many times I’ve purchased this stain treater. I’m telling you, I’ve been using it for probably 3-4 years now, and there is NOTHING it hasn’t gotten out. I’m always most impressed with the greasy oily stains (you know, the ones that don’t really have any color) that are SO FREAKING STUBBORN. Well, they don’t stand a chance with this spray. Is it more expensive than a stain spray you can get at the grocery store? Yes. But is it worth it? 1,000% YES.
Off the top of my head, here are some of the stains I’ve removed: red wine, ketchup, ground in dirt, grass stains, raspberries, Dr. Pepper, and I’m sure the list goes on and on.
Several months ago at the ranch, Carter really did a number on his light grey sweatshirt the first time he wore it. On the left, you see a picture of the entire sweatshirt, and the pictures on the right are up close shots of the stains on the top and the bottom. That top stain is steak juice from a medium rare steak. The bottom stain is ground in dirt.
Even though I swear by this stain remover, I was still a little bit unsure how this light-colored sweatshirt was going to do after a wash.
Well! I never should have doubted its power. Look how it came out! GOOD AS NEW!!!!
Get it. You won’t regret it. The next time you have a stain, you’ll be so happy you can pull this little magic solution out.
And it might seem weird to give as a gift, BUT IT’S NOT! Anybody who receives it will be absolutely thrilled the first time they use it.
You can click HERE for the bottle you see below, or you can click HERE for all of the different sizes and products. If you scroll to the bottom of this page you can see their shoe cleaner options too!

11) Rothy’s leopard tote / BLACK FRIDAY DEAL! Lots of y’all were bummed that my Rothy’s leopard tote sold out so fast when I highlighted it last year. WELL, I’VE GOT SOME GREAT NEWS! It’s back! AND THIS TOTE IS FABULOUS.
It’s big (but not too big), it’s super durable, and it’s obviously DARLING. And ladies, you can throw it in the wash.
Here’s what the site has to say about it:
- Lightweight, flexible design in tan and black leopard print.
- Durable top handles in black fit comfortably over the shoulder.
- Fits everything from your picnic mat to your yoga clothes—and even an extra pair of shoes.
- A handy key leash in brown keeps your keys or accessories secure and easy to find.
- Need extra organization? Our versatile Wristlet easily clips onto this tote.
You can see above how it’s fully extended, but you can see below that you can also tuck the sides in for a smaller option.

12) Oh Snap sweatshirt / SALE ALERT! JUST WENT 46% OFF THIS MORNING! Okay, Ladies. I’m IN LOVE with this Aerie Oh Snap sweatshirt. I bought this one in store a couple of weeks ago (but it was only 20% off at the time), so it’s the only color I got EVEN THOUGH I WANTED TO GET THREE. It was 30% OFF last week so I got two more… BUT NOW IT’S 46% OFF! And listen, 3 colors of the same sweatshirt might seem like overkill, BUT I KNOW ME. And I know I will wear the heck out of all 3 of them.
I got the one in “bright red”, and I’m wearing it as we speak. And if I’m being totally honest, I’ve worn it 4 x in 10 days. I wore it with leggings, I wore it with jeans, and I wore it with joggers (as seen below). But fyi, although this is called “bright red”, it’s not like a Christmas red or an apple red…. it’s kind of like a coral red. I really like the color, just don’t expect like a true red.
I would say it’s a medium weight. It’s lined with a light fleece… so it’s warm, but it’s not too warm, and it’s not bulky at all. But although not bulky, it is an oversized and relaxed fit.
SIZE DOWN for sure. Had I bought it online, I think I would have ordered my regular medium… but I’m wearing an X-SMALL. I’m never an x-small, so seriously, size down at least 1…. but you probably want to size down two full sizes unless you want it really oversized (because the x-small is still roomy on me).
I LOVE IT SO MUCH.
And you know what.
I think this baby deserves MUST HAVE STATUS.
Yep, I said what I said.
Oh Snap sweatshirt / MUST HAVE joggers / On Cloud sneaker option (love the orchid/fade )
Below you can see 6 of the colors that it comes in, but it also comes in deep cherry, natural, rugged green, smoked gray, and dusty sage.
Spoiler Alert: I bought the “playful pink” and the “cloud wash” at 30% OFF last week and love them both. But dang, I wish I would have waited until they went 46% OFF. 😉
This baby is ONLY $35 right now (regularly $64.95)! Remember to size down because the x-small is still plenty roomy on me.
It has INCREDIBLE reviews and would make a really fantastic gift for lots of ladies, teens, and preteens on your list. And it’s size inclusive from XXS to XXL!
So not only did I give this sweatshirt MUST HAVE status, it was also my first official Santa Alert of the season.
**********
13) Burberry Her / I’ve been talking about this Burberry Her perfume for about a couple of years now. My friend Ralonda introduced me to it, and I love it just as much now as I did when I first started wearing it. It’s light, it’s lovely, and I get compliments on it ALL. THE. TIME.
***********
14) Chi Spin N’ Curl curler / On the days that I want my hair to look its best, I always use this Chi Spin N’ Curl Curler. I’ve heard from readers and friends that they think it’s scary and they are afraid of getting their hair caught and twisted in it, but I’ve been using it for well over a year and that has never even come close to happening to me. It’s SUPER user friendly. All you do is place the hair into the curling chamber and then push either the left or right arrow depending on which way you want the curl to go. I like the curl going away from my face, so I choose the arrow accordingly. It does all the work for me, and it beeps when it’s done with each curl. Again, I don’t use it every day, but I do use it every single time I want my hair to look its best.
When I wear my hair like you see below, I’ve used this tool to style it.
The rose gold one is ON SALE RIGHT NOW!
**********
15) Stay Glossy lip gloss / I recently found this brand of glosses on Amazon, and I love them. They are super inexpensive, there are tons of colors to choose from, and they are super shiny. These would make great stocking stuffers.
***********
16) mascara primer / For years I used (and swore by) the Dior Lash Primer, but a reader suggested this primer and OH MY WORD was she right. It is THE BEST. It’s officially called a “super enhancing mascara base”, and it adds length and volume BEFORE you apply your mascara. It truly makes such a difference.
**********
17) travel jewelry case / BLACK FRIDAY DEAL! 30% OFF! This jewelry travel pouch is incredible. It makes packing your jewelry for a trip SO EASY, and to be honest, I use it while at home too just to keep things organized nicely!
The box contains individual pouches that each hold a good amount of jewelry.
And I love being able to see everything at a glance!
**********
18) coin toggle necklace / This necklace is ONLY $15 and it is FABULOUS.
Here it is in several different outfits…
This sweater has 47 reviews, and it has an average 4.5 star rating, so I’m not the only one that loves this sweater. It’s a medium weight, it’s super soft, and perfectly slouchy. I went with my regular size medium and it’s very roomy, but I think if I sized down it would be shorter than I would like. Even though it’s roomy, the banded hem at the bottom helps it remain flattering.
striped sweater / crop bootcut jeans / sneakers / glasses / hoops / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack
This floral blouse is ohhhhh sooooo fall. The colors are deep and moody, and the floral pattern is lovely. Head to the site and zoom in on the blouse to see all of the pretty details like the pintuck pleats across the front, the tiny ruffled collar, the velvet tie, and the wide elastic cuffs. I’m completely smitten with this blouse. It drapes beautifully and is quite roomy, so you might consider sizing down. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium below, but I think a small might be better.
floral blouse / Aliyah jeans / suede booties / skinny hoops / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack
This tiered hem mini dress is figure flattering with a fitted waist, a deep v neckline, and a short and fluttery tiered skirt. The brown and black floral is very on trend, and I love the bit of volume that the sleeves have. It does lean nighttime because there’s a bit of metallic thread running through the dress that gives it just a bit of sparkle. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
tiered hem mini dress / knee high boots / chunky hoop earrings / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack
This floral minidress is a little bit sassy and feels like a party dress! It’s gauzy and ruffly with a low neckline and smocked waist. The double ruffle skirt is so flirty and pretty, and the fall floral pattern is beautiful for this time of year. It’s lined, so there’s no need for a slip! Yay! For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
floral minidress / knee high boots / skinny hoops / coin toggle necklace / matte gold bracelet stack
This CHEERS sweater is so totally festive and modern, but somehow a great basic too! It’s a beautiful Christmas red and says “cheers” in a cheerful pink. I like the subtle puff sleeves and the fact that it isn’t super fitted. It is quite long, and since it’s roomy, I would recommend sizing down if between sizes. I’m wearing a medium, but I feel like a small would be better.
And look at how these jeans both slim and elongate my legs. I mean, my torso is non-existent, but don’t I look taller than 5’3″ 3/4? 😉 Make sure you size down in these for sure because of the stretch. These dark wash flare jeans are soft, comfy, stretchy, and super slimming. Definitely size down 1 size because they for sure run big.
Both the sweater and the jeans are 30% OFF right now at Avara! Actually, everything is 30% OFF right now at Avara, so go check it out for yourself!

19) Mighty Patch pimple patches / BLACK FRIDAY DEAL! The Mighty Patches are something I finally ordered for the first time a couple of years ago after being #influenced. I saw so many ladies talking about them on ig, so I of course had to order them for myself. And I have to say, they do what they say they are going to do! The Mighty Patch is a hyrocolloid sticker that improves the look of pimples overnight. No popping necessary, y’all! Just stick it on, get some beauty sleep, and wake up with clearer-looking skin. These mighty little patches have over 150,000 5 star reviews. SERIOUSLY.
I like that when I have the patch on a blemish, it keeps me from messing with the blemish AND it pulls the gunk out! Sorcery I tell you!
These are perfect to throw in your teen’s stocking! Or your sister’s! Or your mom’s! I mean, who doesn’t need help with a blemish on occasion.
**********
20) Colleen Rothschild hair mask / BLACK FRIDAY SALE! 30% OFF right now, no code needed! Colleen’s hair products are absolutely phenomenal. THESE PRODUCTS WILL CHANGE YOUR HAIR.
When I first started using them, I immediately noticed a difference. Like after 1 use! How’s that for fast results?
The QUENCH & SHINE RESTORATIVE MASK is a color-safe conditioning treatment to soften, detangle and revive all hair types without weighing your hair down.
So before they came out with the conditioner, I would use small amounts of this mask as my daily conditioner. In fact, I loved how my hair felt so much after using it that I was pretty sure I wouldn’t love the conditioner as much, and I would just continue to use this mask as my conditioner.
HOWEVER, I fell in love with conditioner too, and now I use the mask more as an intensive hair treatment. My goal is to use it once a week, but the truth is, I just use it when I have some extra time to spend in the shower. Instead of using just a tiny bit like I used to, I now use a good amount, massage it all over my head, and I like to leave it in for a bit to get the full benefit. I like to leave it in for a minimum of 5 minutes, but a couple of times I’ve even been known to get out of the shower and vacuum the house or something with it in before rinsing it out.
My mom loves the mask too. She absolutely SWEARS by this product and the serum that we’re going to talk about in just a minute.
Here’s my mom’s story with the hair products…. A couple of years ago she started noticing that her hair was “getting old” – her words, not mine. 😉 My mom has always had great hair, but she said it had all of a sudden started to become dry and brittle. WELL. She swears that the mask and the serum completely revitalized her hair.
I called her to hopefully get a couple of quick quotes for today’s post and she went ON AND ON! Haha! I actually asked her “So you really think these products changed your hair too?” And she was all “I KNOW they changed my hair.” 🙂
She told me how before using the products she had noticed a while ago that “a chunk of hair on the left side of her head” had become “extra dull and dry”. She said that she started applying small amounts of the mask to her dry hair at night (specifically just to the patch that was giving her trouble), and when she would wake up in the morning the patch would be more hydrated and more manageable!
She also said that she when she first got the mask that she was using it every single time she washed her hair, but now she doesn’t have to use it nearly as often because her hair is in so much better shape now! She truly feels it has REPAIRED her hair. It doesn’t just LOOK better, but it IS better. It’s healthier!
Just look how thick, rich, and creamy the mask is.
Quench and Shine Restorative Mask
And since all of the hair products are 30% OFF right now, I want to talk about my other favorites too…
I love all of the hair products except one. I just don’t love the regular shampoo. (I know people that do love the shampoo, but I personally prefer a shampoo I’ve been using for years now over the CR shampoo.) UPDATE: I DO love Colleen’s new Clarifying Shampoo!
Smooth and Shine Hair Serum / Quench and Shine Restorative Mask / Replenish and Shine Daily Conditioner
I. LOVE. THIS. CONDITIONER.
It doesn’t weigh my hair down, but it still manages to be incredibly moisturizing. All of the products in the bundle work together to give you incredible hair, but even if you didn’t use any of the other products and only used this conditioner, you would still notice that the conditioner alone makes your hair shiny and soft. I’ve only been using this for a couple of months, but I’m already loyal to it.
And I know this shouldn’t really matter, but I happen to love the pale pink packaging. The products look pretty in your shower or on your bathroom counter, and I appreciate that!
Replenish and Shine Daily Conditioner
And listen, the hair towel is NEXT LEVEL.
If you’re like I was, you might be like “It’s a towel. I have towels.” Maybe so. But you don’t have this towel.
And if you don’t have this towel, you need this towel.
The SUPERLUXE MICROFIBER HAIR TOWEL lessens the amount of damage we place on our hair by cutting down on dry time. By removing excess moisture before styling, hair can be smoother, stronger and shinier. Benefits all hair types and textures.
I don’t know how or why this hair towel is better than other towels.
BUT IT IS.
And just like the package says, it’s QUICK DRY, GENTLE, LIGHTWEIGHT, it REDUCES FRIZZ, and its ABSORBENT.
After getting out of the shower, I brush through my hair a couple of times and wring out any excess water, then I wrap my hair up in this towel while doing my makeup. LADIES. The amount of water it absorbs out of my hair is shocking. It’s going to take tons of moisture out of your hair, but it’s not going to leave it frizzy. It’s a game changer. It stays in place so much better than a regular towel, and it dries the hair so much quicker and more thoroughly. And it definitely cuts down on the time you are going to have to use your hair dryer.
Time for the last product, which many of you might think is the star of the show.
The SMOOTH & SHINE HAIR SERUM helps banish frizz, tame flyaways and quench dry ends with the light-weight, transformative power of Cotton Seed Oil. Essential nutrients from Neem Oil and Hibiscus Oil help strengthen, protect and nourish hair so that it feels soft and looks amazing!
When I asked my mom how often she uses the serum, she said “I use the serum alllllllllllllllllll the time.”
When I asked her if she used it on damp hair or dry hair, she said “YES TO BOTH”! Haha!
She uses it on both damp hair AND dry hair.
I wash my hair every couple of days, and my favorite way to use the serum is to run it through my hair AFTER I’ve styled my hair with my rollers and /or a curling iron. It smells great, it tames flyaways, and it adds SO MUCH SHINE! My mom said after getting older, she now washes her hair much less frequently than she used to have to, but she says “the serum livens my hair up between washings and gives it the sheen that it needs.” But yes, she also works a little bit through her damp hair before she dries it with her hair dryer.
These products are the way to SUPER HEALTHY, SUPER SHINY, and MORE MANAGEABLE HAIR!
It’s time to GET OUR SHINE ON, Ladies!

21) Barefoot Dreams lounge set / If you’ve never treated yourself to a Barefoot Dreams piece or set, MAKE THIS THE YEAR. They are seriously the absolute softest things you will EVER put on your body. I got my first piece (a blardigan!) around 10 years ago, and I’ve never looked back. Click HERE for all of the Barefoot Dreams items in the sale. And don’t just think of yourself, consider grabbing some pieces as gifts. They make THE BEST gifts for moms, mother-in-laws, grandmothers, sisters, pretty much anybody. I’m wearing the lounge set (you can see just the top) when I’m talking about neuLASH at the top of the post.

22) Boll and Branch sheets / Sale: 25% OFF (with a minimum $200 purchase) with code CYBER25
Well, y’all. I took the plunge like 3 years ago, and I’ve never turned back. I finally caved and bought some Boll and Branch pieces for my own, and they remain tip top favorites. They’ve changed my life for the better, and I’m not even being dramatic. 😉
Several years ago at my girlfriend Cassie’s birthday party (y’all know her as Hi Sugarplum), she had a silent auction in lieu of gifts. The proceeds went to a charity near to her heart, so Chris and I bid on a Signature Sheet Set from Boll and Branch. Y’all. The sheets are insanely good and worth every dang penny.
We have the one set that we love (the signature sheet set), and we refuse to put anything else on our bed now. They are so luxurious, and they’ve held up beautifully. Since they are super expensive, we were really wondering if they were going to live up to the hype and the price tag, and they 1000% have.
So we have the Signature Sheet Set and LOVE it. So last year I grabbed the PERCALE HEMMED SHEET SET. They are supposed to be cool and crisp and perfect for hot sleepers, so we wanted to try them too!
I love both sets so much that last Christmas we ended up splurging and buying the medium weight duvet insert after hearing Cassie scream and shout about hers for so long. SHE’S NOT WRONG. OHHHMYWORRRRD it’s fantastic. There’s no doubt in my mind that we sleep better because of it.

23) tarte XL tubing mascara / My favorite mascara OF ALL TIME is 30% OFF right now! This mascara is an absolutely incredible product. It doesn’t flake, it doesn’t smudge, and it adds both length and volume to my lashes.
It’s soooooooo good. Look at these BEFORE and AFTER pics! WOW!
***************
24) Ugg micro slip-ons / I just got these last week, but I feel confident already saying that they are a favorite. And they’re definitely one of the IT GIFTS this year! I’m a 1/2 size, and I sized up in the picture below…. HOWEVER, I’ve already ordered the size down. So I’m a 6 1/2, and I ended up ordering the 6. In the picture below, you can see the extra room in the back. I ordered a dupe pair from Aerie hoping I would like them just as much, and I didn’t. 🙁 The Aerie pair went up and down on my heel when I walked, so I actually ended up much preferring the UGG version and felt like they were worth the price.
***************

I own and love the #1 exposed seam sweater (comes in tons of colors) and the boatneck sweater in both neutral and red. They are both closet staples for me! (The #1 sweater is a more relaxed fit and a bit warmer. The #3 sweater can be dressed up or down, but it’s on the thinner side and it’s a bit more fitted, so it leans a little dressier. I wear a small in both, so I think they both run a bit large. The #8 mascara primer is a product that I’ve sworn by for years now! This set would make a great gift.
My friend Kasey grabbed the Tory Burch boots last time I posted them and loves them. Says they are very comfy for a bootie (even with all day wear she was ok), and she said she got tons of compliments on them. They’re very chic.
And I just ordered the #9 Zella quilted packable jacket for myself. I tried it on in store last week and loved it, but I didn’t get it for some reason. This sale was just the push I needed. 🙂 I would suggest sizing down. The small was plenty roomy on me. This would be a great gift.
OH! And I ordered the #15 tipped crewneck sweater (in navy tipped with pink) for myself earlier this week, and I tried it on this morning AND LOVE IT. Size down for sure. I got the small and it’s still quite roomy, but I like it that way! This would be a great gift too!
