2023 College Age Gift Guide!
Holiday Gift Guide #12 is here. I had SO many requests for college age/young adult gift ideas that I added this gift guide this year. I included some home decor items like this mirror, sheet set, original art or griddle set that they can use in apartment at college or on their own. Gift them a nice jacket like this Whitespace puffer or Stio jacket they can use this winter. Does your young adult love a party. Give them these beer mittens or the JBL party box. You know I’m a sucker for beauty gifts like this Givenchy lipstick or Thrive blush. Want a good jewelry splurge Christmas? I love this Shinola watch or Emerald Gold necklace! They will be thrilled to play with this Disc Game, Golf Simulator or Beach volleyball set. Get Gifting your College Kids and Young Adults!
2023 Teen Gift Guide!
Holiday Gift Guide #11 is here. Teen Gifts are here and I have a gift for everyone on your list! If your teen is really in to music I love an experience gift like a trip to see Drake or Zach Bryan. Technology is always a great gift idea for a teen since that’s all they seem to do. You could gift one of these and technology items and they will be thrilled: New iPhone, 2 in 1 Charger, iPhone Case, Apple Max Headphones. A teen girl loves some beauty gifts and I’m loving the Fenty Lip Bomb or the Tatcha water cream. Clothes are something they need and want. Gift this jacket or some new loafers for him or these Beach Riot leggings or White Fox Oversized Hoodie for her. The sports fanatic on your list will use and love Goarilla Basketball Net, Magnetic Golf Phone Holder, Pickleball Set, EVO Wakeboard or Agility Training Set. I love a good splurge gift like this YSL bracelet or Razor Rambler. Get Gifting your Teen Boy or Teen Girl!
