Last Minute Holiday Gift Ideas

Sorry to be basic, but please find me someone who doesn’t love candles. If you’re running out of time and completely out of ideas, you can never go wrong with a candle. Diptyque and Le Labo make my favorites, but anything with a subtle scent and clean design is a safe bet.

It’s never too late to run out to your local store. Even something small goes a long way : ). I went shopping in Beverly Hills over the weekend – as someone who almost never shops in stores and always does everything online (in bed, wearing PJs, with a glass of wine), it was a nice change of pace. All of the storefronts were so beautifully decorated and even though there was no snow, it felt incredibly festive.

The Outfit

One of my go to outfit combos is a bodysuit (master the shirt tuck without having to readjust) with jeans (shorts in the summer, pants in the winter) and a cozy sweater/leather jacket/faux fur jacket. I have a thing for shaggy jackets and this new addition from J.O.A is going to be worn to death. If you love bodysuits as much as I do, check out how to wear a bodysuit, TRUST me.

Also – despite what every magazine/editorial says, the skinny jean will likely never go away (it’s fun to incorporate flares and other styles in my closet, but at the end of the day my skinnies are my go-to), so you might as well invest in some you love. I’ve had this pair by Rag & Bone for almost 5 years and they’ve held up incredibly wear. This particular material doesn’t stretch either, which I LOVE. If you want a pair that feels more like leggings and has a little stretch to them, these are one of my favorite pairs that goes with anything.

What is everyone doing over the holidays? Any fun travels? As much as I’d love to be in Thailand again, I’ll be staying put this year! My family will be joining me in LA and we’re going to Joshua Tree over Christmas. Happy Holidays everyone, and stay tuned for more posts!
