Here are some of my favorites for this season. The links will take you right to the add-this-to-your-cart part of the site because you’re busy and I’m helpful. Happy shopping!
STUFF FOR STOCKINGS
Being bad has its (vanilla meringue) rewards and whatnot. $30 at Dean & Deluca.
This is my favorite lip balm in the history of ever. It’s $25 (I know, I thought it was stupid, too, but I’ve bought three since then – they’re that good) at Sephora. By the way, they’re having a sale called Dealtopia – there’s slew of stocking stufferish type things for $10 each (while supplies last – two items per customer).
Yes this pocket gadget can charge anything except you. $18 at Flight 001.
Winter is here, skin is dry, put this in your purse. $7 at Flight 001.
FOR KIDS
If you want your kid(s) or other people’s kid(s) to do some chores, this Responsibility Board is $48 at Uncommon Goods.
If you want your kid(s) or other people’s kid(s) to tell better stories, this will help and it looks like fun. This could also turn into a drinking game for adults after the kid(s) go to bed. It’s $30 at Uncommon Goods.
If you want your kid(s) or someone else’s kid(s) to get paint all over the house, this is awesome because they can take it from room to room. I’m kidding. Anna has it and loves it. Both fold out drawers are full of art supplies (oil paint, tempera paint, drawing pencils, colored pencils, wood palette, brushes and a blank canvas). $115 at the Met Museum.

FOR GROWN-UPS
If they love fashion, and shoes, this is a yes. $148 at Olive and Cocoa.
No need to be an outsider. Ever. $19.95 at Flight 001.
This is not for a real “bad boy” because hulloh we don’t spend money on those guys. This is to encourage the good guy in your life to be a little more bad. Or something. Whatever. I like this candle because has tobacco in it and probably smells manly and stuff. $54 at Olive and Cocoa.
These fancy cuffs are handmade from fresh fruits and vegetables, AND they’re stylish. Perfect for the eco-friendly person on your list, if you can set aside how annoying they are for being up your ass about eating beef. $40 at Uncommon Goods.
These driving gloves are hot shit. The end. Note: these are “mens’” and there’s only size, sorry people with small feminine hands. $118 at Olive and Cocoa.
This is the coolest toiletry travel bag ever made, and you should get one for yourself immediately. $42 at Flight 001. Note: they have a gajillion other things you will want, so prepare to get lost in a shopping wormhole if you visit the site.
FOOD & COCKTAILS
A Taste of Italy – squeal – these baskets range from $65-135 at Dean and Deluca.
The Hampton’s Brunch Basket. Shut up. I want anything from the Hampton’s. It’s $195 at Dean and Deluca.
This is a make-your-own gin kit! So cool, right? $50 at Uncommon Goods.
When I grow up I want to be in the Murray’s Cheese (or Meat, or Pairing) of the Month Club. Memberships range from 4-12 months and start at $275.
Tasters Club for Bourbon and Scotch – they have a university, too. So clever. Memberships range from one month to months and start at $83/month.
This isn’t holiday related, but if you need to say thank you to someone, with cookies, this is a good idea also. $48 at Dean and Deluca.
Who’s the hardest person on your list to shop for?
