I'm a Fashion Editor, and These Are the 33 Gift Ideas I'm Obsessing Over
I can hardly believe it, but the gift-giving season is already upon us. If you’re stumped for which gifts to give this season, I’ve rounded up some personal favorites that I’ve been obsessing over recently. From fashion finds I can’t stop thinking about that have landed on my current wish list to some of my favorite beauty finds of the year, I’m highlighting my favorites in the gift guide here. From a ‘90s-inspired nylon Prada logo bag to house shoes to the $12 Amazon find I’ve been wearing on repeat, it’s a mix of pieces I’m eyeing and ones I have been telling everyone about.
I’ve organized them by price, so there’s something to find no matter what your budget is. Scroll to the end to see my top under-$50 finds. You just might find something to order for someone on your gift-giving list, or maybe even an item for yourself.
