‘Tis the season of giving!
When I was younger my mom always told me that giving a gift brought her so much more joy than receiving one. My young self scoffed at that! Now, as an adult and a parent, I COMPLETELY agree with her. I still love a good surprise gift for myself, but would much rather spend the evening (or morning or afternoon) watching those I love open the gifts that I thoughtfully selected for them.
Everything on this list is something I own and love, have on my wish list or have gifted to someone I love. Let’s get to the goods:

I had to travel for work last year and bought this bag to bring with me. IT. DID. NOT. DISAPPOINT! It fits so much but doesn’t feel bulky to carry, had the great separate storage at the bottom for shoes or anything you want easier access to (I use it for my underwear and socks so I’m not sifting through the bag looking). I’ve even washed it in my machine and it came out good as new! Would be great as a diaper bag with multiple kids as well.

I don’t own this but I have it on my list for this Christmas! I love that it fits like a fanny pack and can be worn when you’re out and about, living through those cramps that come around once a month. It also has 6 massage modes and 3 heat settings, which would come in so handy when you just need a minute to relax during a busy day! I can see this being used by a busy career lady, a mom up on her feet all day caring for her kids or a teen/young adult stuck at school all day.
After ruining my shoes when I wore them while spray painting I needed new runners quickly so I could get the kids to and from school everyday. Amazon did not disappoint with these. They are suuuuper comfortable, fit true to size and don’t make your feet sweat in the heat. They also wash great in the washing machine when they need to be freshened up!
Ultrasonic Jewellery Cleaner – $47
16% off now for Black Friday! Jewellery can get soooo nasty. If I got this for Christmas you can bet your booty that I’d be sitting with it for all of Boxing Day, cleaning every piece of jewellery I’ve every owned!
Softest V-Neck Everyday T – $16
30% off now for Black Friday!
All of my T-shirts have paint on them or holes in them, so I recently grabbed one of these on a whim while doing some online shopping for my kids. I love it so much I ordered 3 more the minute I put this on (2 t’s, 1 long sleeve shirt). Fits true to size. Trust me when I say the woman in your life will love you for getting her this cozy basic staple! Comes in so many gorgeous colours, I chose this, the deep green, black and white.
I’m a firm believer that you can never have too many blankets! Getting cozy on the couch, having an extra layer in bed or creating blanket forts, just a few of the times I reach for a cozy blanket. This one is a bit pricey but looks DIVINE! There is no chance that you gift this to someone and they don’t immediately wrap it around themselves and stay like that for the rest of the day!
Reg. $49.99, on sale for black Friday
If I have to be outside in the winter, I’m going to be warm as I can be. Playing in the snow is going to be so much more fun for me this year! I can see this being a great gift for anyone, man or woman, who commutes to work daily using public transit.
Reg. $20, on sale for black Friday
Listen, apparently I became an old lady in the last two years, because if the sun gets in my eyes now, I get an immediate head ache. These glasses give great coverage and look amazing! An instant pick me up to any outfit, making you look pulled together at school drop off even if you’re still in your pjs!

Speaking of headaches…this thing works soooo well! I got it in the spring when my allergies were in full swing and it made all the difference for me. It gives you the cold to help with the pain but also provides the nicest little hug to your skull. I’m hooked and use it even when I don’t have a headache, just to sit in peace and unwind sometimes!
I was totally influenced by social media to get these early this year and I’m so happy I was! They make your face feel so luxurious, and give you a glow that lasts for a week! They’re also so much more convenient for taking care of that unwanted facial hair regularly. And no, the hair doesn’t grow back darker and thicker, I promise!
I hope that whether you are getting something for yourself or the loved ones in your life, that this guide of things I love and desire has been helpful to you!
Until next time,
Oli
