I had so much fun creating this gift guide for her. I love reading these types of blog posts and hope this is very helpful in your holiday shopping for any/all the women in your life.
Every year I sit down and list out a bunch of things on my Christmas wishlist into a blog post. I never have an answer for people when they ask me what I want for Christmas which is why I make a blog post about it. It helps my husband and loved ones get some ideas for what to shop for me. But most importantly, it serves as a really good, in depth gift guide for shopping for things the women in your life will actually want.
This type of post will help you come up with ideas for you for what to ask for this year as well as for those of you who need ideas for shopping for others.
Throughout the year, I will screenshot things I come across and put it into my wishlist journal in my Day One Journaling App. That way when the holidays come around, all I have to do is pull that open and I have a ton of ideas ready to go for this post.
In this in depth gift guide for her, you will find some things your wife/daughter/sister/mom whoever is probably wishing to receive for Christmas this year.
Are you in multiple Secret Santas or White Elephant gift exchanges? This could also serve as a gift guide for you! Happy Shopping!
List of Gift Ideas for Her
I’ve actually listed these in the order of what I want most. This post took me way longer than I care to admit ha. You can also click on any image in this post to be taken to that item.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #1 | MacBook Air
The #1 thing on my wishlist? And really the only thing I’d be happy receiving if it was the only thing I was getting this year?
A new MacBook Air. I have an early 2015 version and it’s slowly taking a crap on me. I had to delete all the apps off of it so that it would run somewhat smoothly and to save memory. The only thing I can really do on there is access Google Chrome. Any other app just slows the whole thing down. Which I hate. I want to be able to run all my apps seamlessly without any issue or lag.
(UPDATE: My husband came home the other day with a brand new MacBook air in rose gold and told me it was an early Christmas gift! Yay! I am so excited to use this for work and for blogging!)
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #2 | Abercrombie Basics
I remember my brother’s girlfriend saying how Abercrombie has the best basics. And they seriously do!
I actually bought a few pieces from them recently and the quality is SUPERB. Obsessed. Their curve love jeans are chef’s kiss! They just hug you in all the right places and look so good on.
With that being said, I sifted through their website and listed out a few of my favorite finds that I’ve added to my wishlist.
Cream Puffer
This is such a cute, simple, chic puffer from Abercrombie. This would definitely be a winter staple for me. You could throw it on over pretty much any outfit.
(Okay I am SO BUMMED because this exact puffer is no longer available! I found a similar one though but so disappointed. It’s not the same! Here is a cute classic black puffer and long black puffer coat.)
Rolling Stones Graphic Tee
No matter how many times I redownloaded this image to the post, the pink that is in the shirt disappears. I don’t get it. haha You’d have to click on the photo and be taken to the actual shirt listing to see the actual color of the shirt.
Half Zip Sweatshirt
This is a super simple and cute crew to wear for lounging or running errands. I like it in the cream, gray and taupe colors.
Double Zipped Ribbed Cardigan
Okay I’m obsessed with this one in white, I have the top that looks similar that’s in a taupe color and the gold zippers.
Graphic Crewneck
This is a cute crew for lounging. I feel like you can never have too many crew sweatshirts. Let’s be real.
Seamless Bodysuit
Okay I think every girl needs body suits in like every color. They’re staple pieces that are so easy to put an outfit together with.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #3 | Lululemon leggings
I think I might be the only girl out there without a pair of Lululemon leggings. I know. Which is why they’re on my wishlist this year. I practically live in leggings already and am so sick of the crappy ones I have ripping on me.
I am asking for the Lululemon Align High Rise Pant 28″ in size 6.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #4 | Wine ice mold bottle chiller
Okay I NEED. No, but for real. I can think of a million different ways to make a cute ice mold for my wine with this thing. I can use it for hosting and creating a ton of content around it.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #5 | Ray Ban Sunglasses
Okay ya girl needs them. I’ve lost my Ray Bans that I’ve had for years. No idea where they ended up. I spent forever on their website trying to find the best ones and I cannot make my mind up about the following three so I’ve listed all three of them. I’d be happy to receive any of the three, I just can’t make up my mind which one I like the best ha.
Ja-Jo Polarized Sunglasses
Rob Polarized Sunglasses
Hexagonal Flat Lenses Sunglasses
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #6 | Lululemon Rain Coat
I am super bummed because I found a rain coat on the Lululemon website that I was obsessed with, but it was sold out. This is the second best one I could find. I need something I can use year round and long enough to make me feel covered from the rain.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #7 | Boots
Okay this was so much fun! I love shopping Nordstrom for shoes and boots because I feel like they always have THE BEST selection. I’ve listed the boots I want in order. (I am normally a size 8 1/2 shoe.)
Dolce Vita Waterproof Bootie in the color Onyx
#1 My first pick are these super freaking cute boots. That’s all I have for this one. I’m just obsessed because I can picture these with so many outfits. You have to click over to the onyx colored boot after clicking the link.
Ugg Tasman Slipper in Chestnut
Okay this is definitely my #2 choice. I need some cozy outdoor slippers I can just throw on and run out the door. I am obsessed. You’ve also probably have seen them on like every other gift guide out there. Just make sure you click over to the color chestnut.
Steve Madden Platform Chelsea Boot in Sand Suede
I couldn’t decide if I liked these better or the leather ones. These just look much more cozy for my #3 choice. The link takes you to a different color. You have to choose the color sand suede
Waterproof Leather Bootie in the color Bone
These just look super sleek and I can picture wearing them with so many outfits especially for rainy days.
Ugg Classic Mini Shearling Lined Boot
I was back and forth about whether I wanted a new pair of uggs or not. My old ones were so destroyed plus had dog poo on them that I ended up throwing them out. I decided if I’m going to get new Uggs, I want them to be the short ankle version.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #8 | Classic White Sneakers
I have been on the lookout for white sneakers. These are the three I found that I would 100% wear like all the time.
Vans ComfyCush Old Skool Shoe
Adidas Nizza Platform Shoes
White APL shoes
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #9 | Bissell Little Green Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner
Okay I know this is a strange thing to have on a Christmas wishlist but I keep seeing this all over the internet and how people are raving about how good it cleans. I’m excited to use it like all the time especially since we have a dog and things get dirty very quickly.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #10 | Stanley Rose Quartz Tumbler
I have one of these already but it doesn’t have a handle. It’s a different type and color that I ordered to have with me at the hospital when I gave birth to my daughter. I love it, but definitely need something with a handle. Plus the colors are so me with this one I just had to add it to the list. I love drinking my water and this would be perfect to use.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #11 | T3 Brush Set
My current brush is falling apart and I don’t have any round brushes for blow dry styling my hair. I love that this set is in white and gold it couldn’t be prettier.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #12 | T3 Styling Wand
I have a styling wand, but not one with a clamp and I also don’t believe the barrel is this thick either. I want to be able to create wavy looking curls with a thicker barrel.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #13 | Blankets
My dog Rem has officially chewed up every single one of my blankets. He’s gotten to every single one of them including all of my favorite ones including my weighted and heated blanket.
Casual Throw Blankets
I am in desperate need of cute, casual throw blankets for lounging around the house. My dog Rem chewed up every single one of my favorite blankets. Anything in cream, white or beige is what I’m looking for.
Weighted Blanket
Heated Blanket
My dog also ruined my heated blanket. It’s perfect for the cold winter months especially during that time of the month. He chewed up the part that plugs into the blanket. Don’t you just love when they do that?
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #14 | Espresso Machine
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #15 | Waffle Maker
I wasn’t sure if this was something I wanted to add to the list, but decided to add it anyway. I love a good, fluffy waffle and what better way to have them than to make them at home?
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #16 | Our Place Pots + Pans
If you don’t already have the Our Place Always Pan, you need it. I am obsessed with it and use it every single morning. My husband bought it for me for my birthday this year and I literally don’t use any other pan besides it.
I would love to get my hands on Our Place’s cast iron pan and perfect pot.

Our Place Perfect Pot
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #17 | Travel Cosmetic Bags
There are a ton of options on Amazon for the bags that hang for travel, but I love this one I found from Béis that is deep enough to carry all your makeup and skincare for travel.
Béis Travel Cosmetic Case in Beige
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #18 | Shackets
Shackets are such a staple item to have for the colder months. Here are two that I found from Stitch and Feather that are super cute.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #19 | Loungewear
You can never go wrong with a basic pair of sweatpants, hoodies, etc. I had to include this one on the list.
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #20 | Lux Unfiltered Tanning Products
Lux Unfiltered is a tanning brand I’ve wanted to try for a while now. Although now that it’s no longer summer and I’m now a mother, it would be nearly impossible to self tan. I am also exclusively breastfeeding so it would be slightly impossible to self tan and not ruin it. But I think I could get away with doing a self tan but avoiding my chest area. I just don’t think I would attempt it until summer came back around.
But this is definitely a great gift option for anyone you know who loves to self tan. This is such a stunning brand and I’ve seen so many people rave about it.

N28 Exfoliating Body Polish
N10 Blurring Body Glow
N32 Hydrating Self-Tanning Cream
N36 Supernatural Tanning Mousse
Unfiltered Tanning Mit
Gift Guide for Her – Idea #21 | Wine Glass Chiller Holders
Okay this is the last idea I have! I found them on Amazon and what they do is keep your glass of wine cold. Wine gets warm pretty quickly so this is a great idea for those nights when you’re trying to enjoy a crisp glass of wine with each sip.
Until next year, that is all I have left for this post!
This post was all about a Gift Guide for Her.
I hope you found this helpful and were able to check some gifts off your list!
Merry Christmas!
Xo, Kristen
