When in doubt, it’s always a good idea to gift your people with your tried and true favorite things! I default to coffee beans from my neighborhood coffee shop, that cashmere sweater I’ve been living in, my signature scents and the beauty products that have a permanent place in my cabinet.
I wanted to put together a handful of my absolute can’t live without items for this week’s #10Things. The beauty items I continuously rebuy, my favorite clothing staples (that are worth the splurge in my opinion!) and some additional personal items that would make for ideal last minute gifting ideas.
Jo Malone London Velvet Oud & Rose Cologne–My signature scent. I wear the perfume daily as well as the body creme… and I’m also constantly burning the candle. Rose everything is always a win in my book!
Jenni Kayne Cocoon Cashmere Cardi–You know my collection of Jenni Kayne knits is ever growing thanks to my partnership with the brand, but this one is by far my most worn these days. A worthy splurge, so soft that I want it in the cream as well. You can use code: ALICIA20 for 20% off.
Jenni Kayne Shearling Mule–These comfy cool flats are my go-to with everything from denim to slip dresses. Easy and chic.
Earth Tu Face Coconut Body Butter–This body butter has been my savior this winter. Nothing works as well as this for me during these dry months. If you don’t mind a coconut oil consistancy and like the smell of coconut then you will love how soft your skin feels!
Vintner’s Daughter–First I was hooked on the Serum but since adding the Essence into my daily routine my skin has completely cleared up and changed. I now swear by this simple two-step skincare regime.
Gucci Cosmetic Case–It’s all I could think of to put on my Xmas list this year. Totally don’t need it but it’s one of those luxe items that I have fallen for.
Lou & Grey Sweatshirt–This sweat-set is literally the softest, coziest ever. I live in this combo at home… but they’re also flattering so I totally wear them out and about running errands with sneakers and a denim jacket as well.
Travel Home–Some coffee table books you continuously grab for more than others, this is that one for me. Such a great gift for the design lover.
Mt. Washington Ceramics–All of my favorite ceramic pieces are from Mt. Washington. I love the carving details and speckled glaze.
Yves Saint Laurent Matte Lip Stain (#7)–This has become my ideal everyday dark nude / pink. It wears perfectly throughout the day. You can reapply if going to a meeting or dinner but still looks good kinda worn off… for just a subtle hint of pink.
