HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE 2018 | GIFTS FOR THE COZY GIRL

Get ready for my very FIRST gift guide of 2018! SO excited to kick off my Holiday gift guide series this year with a personal favorite of mine: ‘Gifts For The Cozy Girl’! I wanted to start rolling these out for you guys a few weeks before black Friday this year so you can start prepping early for your Holiday shopping! If you’re a cozy girl like me, than this guide is for YOU. These are items that I either personally own and have fallen in love with or are at the top of my Christmas list this year. These items would make amazing gifts for any gal in your life. I’ll touch a little bit more on why I truly love every single one of these items below.

1: Pom Fur Throw: Just ordered this throw a couple weeks back and I’m DROOLING over it. Mainly because I’m obsessed with anything that has poms on it. This blanket is so cozy and is too adorable to pass up. Comes in multiple colors!

2: Cozy Fleece Pullover: Just ordered this pullover and I can’t wait for it to come in. I’ve owned similar jackets in the past and they are seriously so snuggly. I’ll be living in this during the upcoming chilly months! This particular one is also on SALE right now- Run, don’t walk!

3: Barefoot Dreams Cardigan: If you don’t own anything Barefoot Dreams you are seriously missing out in life. I can’t even begin to describe how soft this cardigan is. It’s a staple item for me when I travel, especially since I get so cold on airplanes.

4: Blanket Scarf: How cute and cozy does this Free People blanket scarf look? I need this in my life right about now. Comes in multiple colors!

5: Fleece Lined Socks: Ugg socks are my jam! I have the knee high version of these fleece lined socks and they keep my feet so toasty and comfy. They are great quality and will last years!

6: Kindle: A kindle is the perfect gift for the girl who loves to cozy up with a good read. These are wonderful for travel and great because you don’t have to deal with lugging around paper copies of books.

7: Chunky Knit Pom Beanie: I own this in the burnt orange color and it’s definitely my favorite beanie of the season. It not only keeps you super warm but is so on-trend with the chunky knit stitching and furry pom. Comes in multiple colors!

8: Pajama Set: This is the pajama set you will be reaching for on the daily. Great staple to have in your wardrobe, super comfortable and will never go out of style!

9: Diptyque Candle: At first I was hesitant to spent this much on a candle. I really didn’t understand what the hype was about until I finally gave in and ordered one for myself. This candle smells unbelievable and truly fills the entire room with its scent. It comes in a mini size if you want to try it before splurging on the larger size. But trust me, you’ll be hooked.

10: Heart Accent Pillow: Just ordered this pillow and I think it’s just darling! Such a cute feminine accent to your home decor. Comes in a few different colors!

11: Barefoot Dreams Throw Blanket: You may notice I have quite a few barefoot dreams items on this gift guide. It’s because I assure you that you can’t go wrong with this brand. It’ll be the best gift you ever give or receive. The softest throw blanket in the entire world hands down.

12: Barefoot Dreams Robe: Another barefoot dreams favorite is this cozy robe. Imagine yourself hopping out of a hot shower to then wrap yourself in silky smooth luxury. This robe feels like a dream (hence the name barefoot dreams) and would be an incredible gift for any cozy gal.

13: Alo Goddess Leggings: I purchased these a couple months ago and I’m obsessed with them! The top part is made of regular legging material, and the bottom is ribbed and a little stretchier – the ribbed part can be pulled down over your foot. They are probably the most comfortable and also the most flattering leggings I’ve ever worn in my life. Been wearing these every week to Barre class since they came in the mail!!

14: Ugg Slippers: Ugg slippers are a classic favorite and you can’t go wrong with gifting these. My favorite part is that these can be worn both in and out of the house. Preston actually steals mine all the time and wears them around my apartment- He may kill me for saying that ha! Need a new pair because he has definitely stretched mine out. Just found out they make uggs for men and I’ll definitely be getting him a pair so he’ll stop stealing mine!
