Unique Hostess Gifts

1. white whale cocktail mixers / 2. thug kitchen cookbook (seriously amazing!) / 3. furbish salt & pepper shaker / 4. jayson home spike pots / 5. anthropologie woodblock calendar / 6. leif bath salts / 7. leif coffee scoop (similar here) / 8. velvet crate holiday box / 9. c.wonder tea set

With only 8 days left until Christmas,  the next week is jam-packed with holiday celebrations of every variety. Since I'm still learning to be a grown-up (I can still claim that at 25, right?), I have been trying my best not to arrive to other's homes empty-handed, but instead with a small gift for the host. While the majority of the time I end up brining flowers or candle, I love the idea of stepping out of the box a bit with items like these spike pots or animal salt & pepper shakers

Now, if you're like me and usually running on an one-day life delay, velvet crate is your new hostess gift BFF. They offer beautifully curated, prepackaged gift sets that are covetable and would be a perfect  treat for anyone. The best part? Free shipping my friends, which means it's incredibly easy and painless to send.

Gift Guide // New York City



It's (almost) the most wonderful time of the year! Despite the husband being a bit of stickler about not celebrating Christmas until after Thanksgiving, I may or may not have been sneaking a few Christmas songs in on the drive home for work. Two points in my defense: 1. there's snow on the ground & 2. it's not my fault if there's a radio station already dedicated to Christmas music 24 hours a day.

All of this pre-Christmas celebration has me thinking about what I'm going to wrap up for friends and family this year, so I thought I'd put together a few gift guide to help us both sift through all the goodness.

This year, I thought it would be fun to create a few guides around cities that I've visited or plan to. First up, New York City. These gifts are inspired what comes to mind when I think of New York City - clean lines, chic accessories, a bold red lip & a little sparkle. The best news, everything is under $150!
