Apple Watch Sport
“This is a great gift for a chef or someone who works with their hands and isn’t always able to reach for their phone. I am able to see important emails and text messages, as well as keep track of my fitness goals, by simply raising my wrist.”
Prada Linea Rossa Slip-On Sneakers
“These shoes are easy to wear and look great both casual and dressy. I’ve recently been wearing these to work and love being able to go out for a bite to eat without having to change my shoes.”
Wolford socks
“I swear by these socks! They are comfortable, thin, and long lasting. Socks are a great gift because you wear them every day but no one really likes buying their own.”
Mountain Boy Sledworks Ultimate Flyer
“I am very outdoorsy and love spending the weekends in the country with my family and friends. I can’t wait to play with my grandkids and pull them around the snow on this sleek and classic sled.”
Swimsuit from SunBarth
“I always celebrate the holidays in St Barths, and always try to go for at least two swims a day. I love the selection of resortwear from this shop, especially their swimsuits.”
Macarons from Ladurée
“When in doubt of what to give someone, opt for a sweet treat. My favorite are macarons from Ladurée.”
Christmas ornaments from ABC Carpet & Home
“There are so many beautiful and unique ornaments at ABC Carpet & Home. It’s a thoughtful gift to give.”
