31 New Yorker Approved Holiday Gifts for Every Cool Friend in Your Life
Considering the holiday season starts before we even get a chance to carve the Thanksgiving turkey, I think it's fair to start checking off your gift list. (Nobody's ever regretted getting a head start on all the purchases that need to be made.) For the fashion lover in your life, this year is all about trending accessories and cozy closet additions. Uniquely shaped earrings, Adidas x Wales Bonner sneakers, and the softest sweats to ever grace one's legs are top of mind. In the beauty category, we have big hitters including the Dyson Airstrait and the NuFace mini toning device, which I promise are worth the splurge. Lastly, we can't forget about the men's category, which is full of great knits, cool loafers, and skincare they'll actually use. The following 30 items are sure to set you up for success this season. Keep scrolling to shop the coolest holiday gifts for everyone in your life.
