25 Gifts Our Editors Really Want This Holiday Season
Like it or not, we've officially entered the start of holiday season. This means that it's time to start thinking about the gifts worthy of a spot on your list this year (and doing a little holiday shopping for friends and family). As editors, we field plenty of present ideas every season, sure.
But as we compile gift guides meant for others, there are certain pieces we've been eager to add to our own carts. From the practical (there's always room for new underwear), to the just plain luxurious (cashmere, anyone?), our team of editors is here to offer up a little inspiration to help you jump-start your seasonal wish list.
So what is it our editors are eyeing this holiday season? Below, we break things down piece by piece and explain exactly why each of these 25 items have made the cut. Fair warning: You may just end up wanting everything (and hey, we can't blame you). Read on to shop the gifts we're eyeing for the holidays!
"The only thing better than fancy pajamas are fancy pajamas you get as a gift. Plus 40% of proceeds from this pink pair are donated to a women's health fund, so it's a win all around."
"As someone who loves monogrammed and customized things, I like to assume everyone else does too. And while you can customize anything from The Daily Edited, I like the cell phone cases for gifting because you don't have to break the bank."
"I've been so into printing and framing photos lately that I love to do the same for my friends. Especially after my recent wedding, there are so many cute shots I want to share, and these frames are chic yet neutral so they work for anyone."
"I love UK-based Space NK's well-curated assortment of beauty products. While I'd be thrilled with basically anything from the shop, I always have my eye on the luxurious Byredo goods."
"You can never go wrong with a pair of shoes. Seriously. I currently have my eye on these classic black boots from The Kooples. They're sleek, chic, and will go with everything in my closet. Hopefully one of my loved ones is reading this (hint, hint)."
"The holidays are the perfect time to stock up on basics. Mack Weldon makes some of my favorite go-tos (everything from the best socks to the softest tees). Any man (including myself) would be all over this gift pack."
"I always forget to buy myself scarves and end up wearing the same old ones I've had for years. I think it's definitely time for a refresh."
"Statement earrings make any outfit cooler, and this is the pair I currently have my eye on. "
"Fine, call me crazy, but I have a weird obsession with the tech sneakers I'm seeing everywhere this season. Since splurging on sneakers isn't something I'd traditionally do, they make a great gift."
"Chalk it up to hygge or self-care or whatever, but I can't have too many candles these days. Boysmells is pretty fun (since I'm very single), and the candles smell great and are a nice price too."
"Okay, so a super-luxe cashmere sweater may not be a realistic gift, but hey, a girl can dream. I'd love nothing more than to spend all winter wearing this cozy yet bold perfection."
"I love a statement-making coat, but sadly I don't own a ton. When buying for myself, I typically lean into a coat that's more versatile, but it's time to think outside the box. This fuzzy colorblock Mango darling will do wonders for my winter wardrobe. Once someone gifts this to me (hi, Mom), I'll be wearing it nonstop."
"I've been searching for the perfect pair of rose-colored cords, and when I came across these, I knew they were the ones. If anyone out there is listening—I must have these in my life. Thanks!"
"I'm not a huge sneaker junkie, but these Ganni sneakers immediately spoke to my heart. I love the little lace detailing and the fun pops of blue."
"I'm obsessed with gold earrings and will never not be delighted by a unique pair."
"For the record, I doubt anyone I know will actually spring for this cashmere sweater. But it's the holidays, and a girl can dream."
"I'm obsessed with these hoops—I'm buying one for my friend this year so we can get matching piercings."
"Living in L.A., I can get away with wearing summery pieces year-round, so this pretty embroidered blouse is at the top of my list."
"I love collecting jackets—they're the perfect third piece to make jeans and a T-shirt look cool. This silver version by 3.1 Phillip Lim is so perfect."
"Thanks to Dior and Gucci, berets are having a moment right now. I can't think of a better stocking stuffer."
"I can't resist anything French designer Jacquemus dreams up, including this incredible top."
"The Gabriela Hearst Nina is my latest bag obsession. It's classic, timeless, and has a waiting list a mile long."Want more? Here are 20 gifts for all your girlfriends (or yourself)!
