Things We Own and Love: Christa’s Gift Ideas
A Cashmere Sweater
For anyone who likes to feel a little luxe:
Give the gift of luxe with this cashmere sweater. I love the styling of this one with the collar and 1/4 zip. I own this in two colors and it is my most worn sweater. It comes in 7 colors, sizes XS-XXL. (I think any of Bloomingdale’s cashmere sweaters would make a wonderful gift!)
Personalized Notecards
For your best friend:
Anything personalized is always a great gift idea. This Etsy shop is a favorite of mine for personalized notecards and notepads.
A Lighted Makeup Mirror
For the makeup obsessed:
I’ve had my makeup mirror for years and love it. It has 5x magnification, and two light settings. It’s rechargeable, and the charge lasts over a month. Comes in three finishes. It’s a gift they’ll use (and appreciate) everyday!
A Necklace Set
For your favorite things party:
I love a necklace stack that’s already done for me! This set from Avara is perfect. Looks great with everything, too! Get ready for lots of compliments!
A Bluetooth Speaker
For the guy who likes to chill on the patio:
We love the SONOS system for all of our music, and this speaker is a great portable option. It’s battery-powered for outdoor and indoor listening, plus Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with Alexa built-in.

LAKE Pajamas
For the Netflix and chill girlie:
LAKE Pajamas are the ultimate in comfort. Made from cotton that feels like the kind they use in baby clothes. A little pricey, which makes them the perfect gift you’d never buy yourself. Worth every penny. I have three pairs and tossed all my other pajamas.
Apple iWatch
For the exercise guru:
The only fashion accessory that could save your life. Wearing an iWatch has made me more mindful of how much (or little) exercise I’m getting, my resting heart rate and the number of steps I get. It’s also handy to answer the phone when your iPhone is on a different level of the house.
Le Creuset Dutch Oven
For the at home chef:
I could survive in my kitchen with ONLY THIS POT. Use it for soup, stews, chili, sourdough bread, mashed potatoes, steam lobsters. Honestly there isn’t much you can’t do with this dutch oven. The only negative is that it’s heavy which makes it cumbersome to wash.
MZ Wallace Tote Bag
For the empty nester that likes weekend getaways:
Not only does this MZ Wallace tote looks like a million bucks, it holds a ton of stuff too. Perfect for a weekend getaway or as your carry on on the plane. It has a cross body and a luggage sleeve. It also comes with a bunch a little pouches to keep you organized.
Personalized Notepads
For the girlfriend that has everything:
There is nothing better than a set of personalized notepads, whether they are monogrammed or have a dog photo on them — notepads are my jam. I use them for school notes, grocery lists, meal plans, notes to myself. They make me so happy. In fact I’m adding these to my personal wish list this year.
