I have a serious confession to make – I’m like a child when it comes to Christmas and get giddy over presents!! Please tell me I’m not alone here!! I love to buy presents for friends and family, but I can’t help but keep a running list of things I wouldn’t mind finding under the tree this time of year!! So if any of these items happen to make their way into my house I won’t be mad at all!!
1//GlossyBox// There are tons of subscription boxes out there, but thanks to Mia I’ve been so interested in this one! The 3 or 6 month plan would be a great gift!
2//Fitbit Flex Wireless// I lost my Fitbit back in August and I seriously have felt like my fitness tracking and progress hasn’t been as great since loosing it!! I’d be happy with any color and this time keeping it on my wrist will ensure it stays put!!
3//Rewined Candles//These are my favorite candles and I can’t get enough of them!! I love that they are all handmade in Charleston too!!
4//Elements of Style
5//Lucite Monogram Tray// I’m still on the hunt for the perfect lucite tray for our bar cart and this one from Shop Dandy is a great price and a perfect clean look!
6//Athleta Stretch Tights//These really are some of the best workout pants out there and SO great when you’re leaving the gym in freezing temps!! It’s a little pricey and the majority of my workout wear does come from TJ Maxx and Marshalls, but sometimes you do have to splurge on some great workout pants! Side note – have you tried Fabletics? You get an entire outfitfor less than $50 and your first purchase is half off…and free shipping! Okay maybe I just scratched those workout pants off my wish list LOL!!
7//Bauble Bar Evil Eye Pendant//I’m such a fan of delicate necklaces and a bit superstitions as well…so combining the two with an evil eye necklace is perfect!!
8//Gift Cards// When all else fails, a gift card to my favorite store is always a winner – at least then I can pick something out when I really need it!!
Since a lot of these gifts could fall into the Friends + Family under $100 I’m also linking up with Zelle and Liz!!
P.S. I’m co-hosting Wino Wednesday with Amanda tomorrow, hope you’ll link up with us!!
What’s on your wish list? Do you keep a running list of items you have your eye on?
xo,
Great list! I love my fitbit but I attach mine to my bra facing in so if it falls in it goes into my bra. 😉 the candle and acrylic tray would be great gifts!
You're definitely not alone – I keep a running list of gift ideas in my phone all year, which includes gift ideas for myself, haha!
I love all of the choices you picked! I've been thinking about getting a Fitbit recently, too. Great list (and you gave me some more things to want haha).
Love your list! I would love to find that coffee table book under my tree too! Lol I found a barre video on eBay for a Christmas present for myself…that I already opened lol in my defense the way I've been eating lately I need to start it today! Haha xo I totally have a list of things I have my eye on at all times. I just know what I like, right?
Should I forward this link to Gary or does he already know these already? 😉 Out of all the boxes I really want the glossy box as well!
Great list, girlfriend! I've never heard of those candles but now I'm intrigued by them! Plus that coffee table looks incredible!
Give me all the BaubleBar and I'm a happy girl. 🙂 Great list, babe!

So many great things! I always make a list and send it out to family members to try to make it easy but sometimes I feel like a little kid doing that! LOL! And I really want a fitbit but I think I want to wait until the one with the heart rate monitor comes out!

Love your list, lady! That candle looks amazing and that tray is so pretty! Dear Santa, here's more I need, thanks! xoxo
I'm embarrassed to say I've never had a Rewined candle!! They're sold here everywhere but I've never bought one. Need to add it to my Christmas list!
I am absolutely the same way!! Christmas is my favorite holiday! All of the giving and getting….I love it! 🙂 and we have a lot of the same wish list! I LOVE those retwined candles and I really want a fitbit wrist band thing too!

i love those rewined candles!!! xo jillian – stop by! I'm hosting a Freshly Picked Moccasin giveaway on cornflake dreams
Haha I'm the same way! And my H is even worse! I got him a sign this year that says "Peeking is ok at any age". He loves to peek while I love to shop for everyone plus myself with all the great sales. Great list, especially loving those candles 🙂
great list, chica! i love christmas buying presents for all the people. i have to hold back most of the time! ps i lost my fitbit a few months ago too because i had gotten the tory burch band and it FELL OFF while i was running errands. it could have been 6 different places. i complained so i got my money back for the band AND a new fitbit. crazy right? but that band was terrible. anyway i'm rambling. happy tues!

Oh that tray is way too cute and I'm in love with that necklace! Such a great list!

I am so busy making lists for everyone else that I forget to make one for myself! When people start asking what I would like for Christmas, I can't remember anything I want! I need to start writing stuff down as soon as I think of it! Then again, I'm easy to please and LOVE gift cards! (But Eric's parents think gift cards aren't a thoughtful gift 🙁 ha!)
LOVE your list! I need to look into those workout pants!
A fitbit is on my list too!
This is a great list! I LOVE that tray – it will look perfect on your bar cart! I had no idea that that's how Athleta works, but now I definitely need to check it out. That is, if I ever get my butt back in the gym, lol!
That's so smart to keep a running list of gift ideas. I feel like I see things I want all the time but then when asked instantly forget every last thing. Same goes for gift ideas, anything I think I'll totally remember in September is completely erased from my memory now. I'm going to have to take your advice and start writing it down.

OMGGGGGG! You lost your fitbit? I'd be so sad! Mine does stay on my wrist thought (except for when I'm showering at which point it stays with my wedding ring). I know it's water proof and could handle the shower but eh? Such a good list lovie! If santa happens to bring you a new Fitbit we should be "friends!"
Great pics lady! Hopefully Gary is reading this. Unless you have another post prepared just for him? 🙂 I haven't tried Fabletics, but the outfits that I've seen are really cute. I don't think that price point for an entire outfit is bad either. There's an Athleta down the street from where I work. I used a coupon to buy a swimsuit and it was a great deal. I hope that you are having a great day so far too! 🙂
Great list, lady!! A fitbit is such a good gift idea! My fiance wants one, but can't decide which one he wants haha … so he may be left to buying that for himself!

Great picks!! I totally want a pink fitbit!! Love Love Christmas!!
Yay thanks for joining in on the fun! Those rewined candles are the best — they smell so good! Loving your picks!

i've considered trying fabletics a bajillion times but the pieces i want never match up in their outfit combos. they have some really neat leggings. but i will say that some of the patterns/prints aren't as fun in person. they almost look faded. good to know about the athleta pants. i've never tried theirs but was always curious. oh and there are soooo many sales on fitbits right now, i saw some for like $39!! get one and we can be fitbit friends. 🙂
Ok loving all of these! Especially a fan of fitbit- I know how you felt…my battery died and my charger was broken for like a week and I was lost because I couldn't track my steps. #lame =) Also a major fan of Athleta…their pants are worth the $$ in my opinion…trust me, I will still get workout gear from TJ maxx and Marshalls too (so cheap!) but you can't beat some great fitting pants. And I might need that coffee table book & that lucite tray. You have such great taste!
I love the monogramed tray! I have a fitbit and I love it!
Thanks for sharing such a great list! I look forward to coming back and reading more of your blog!

I love gift cards! I don't know why so many people talk such smack about them. It's fun to shop!!!!!!!!! I like when people pick out specific gifts, too… but I will never turn my back on a gift card – NEVER!
If I had enough money, I'd get everyone I cared about a FitBit… love those gadgets
Loving that BaubleBar necklace!

I have my Rewined candle going now. And I've been wanting a FitBit for a while!
I dig evil eye stuff too. But nothing trumps a gift card.
Who doesn't get excited about presents?! I love giving of course, but there's something so exciting about opening a box wrapped in pretty paper! 🙂 I love your list, those workout leggings look amazing!
LOVE that tray….and I'd never even thought of adding a subscription box to my wishlist! Brilliant idea!
really really digging the evil eye necklace!!!!!!!! i love the idea of a fitbit but i think its just a gadget id like to have but never end up using (properly!)
A Fitbit Flex is on my wishlist too! Great list girlie 🙂
This is a great idea so when someone in my family asks me what I want I will tell them to go to the blog! There a few things on my list that I am not sure if I can wait for though! Hope you are having a good day!

No way girl, you are not alone! I'm the same way. I love giving, but getting a nice gift is always fun 🙂 I think a Glossybox subscription would be great because it's the gift that just keeps giving!
Love the pendant necklace. We went to Greece and Turkey this summer and I am obessed with them now.
Love your list! Glossy box does look tempting! I heard that they were coming out with a heart rate monitor fitbit eventually, so I am holding out for that. Love the rewind candles!!!!I smell them all the time but have yet to purchase one.,.
I don't spend much on workout clothes either but I'd also love to have a nice pair of workout pants like those!
What a great list! Total confession- I still wake up at like 2am Christmas morning to check out everything under the tree because I'm silly like that! I totally love gifts as well so you're not alone.
I'm dying to try out Glossybox, what a great idea! I'm adding that to the wish list my dad is getting. Also I totally love Athleta gear!
xoxo,

Love these ideas- especially the Rewined candles, who wouldn't love one of those??
ooh I have been looking at Glossybox too!
I love your list! My friend made fun of me when I said I wanted nice workout leggings, but it's so true sometimes you just want some nice work out clothes 🙂
Mia's Glossy Boxes always look amazing so I'd totally add that to my list, too. Have you smelled the Rewined candle in Mimos? OMG. Get.
I fell in love with the Rewined candles when we went to Charleston! I was sad that we flew and could only bring a couple home… otherwise I probably would have bought like 50 of them!
I die for those workout pants! The color and style are amazing 🙂
I'll take one of each of those items listed too! Great taste!
Fabulous picks! I love my FitBit and the Tory Burch bracelet for it is always a fun addition 😉
I love giving gifts too, but always find more stuff for myself, problem is that I buy it instead of waiting to see if it gets gifted to me! Patience isn't my strong suit.

The glossy box sounds interesting! I will have to check it out! Oh I would love a fit bit too!!
great picks! I want a fitbit so bad!

Great list! Mia has also been making me envious of her GlossyBox subscription. And I love the look of those Rewined candles although I've never had one!
This a great list, and I migh steal some ideas for my own list to give to the future hubby! haha My favorite is the coffee table book. You're right. That book is pretty enough to display, but intriguing enough to read. 🙂
Such great things! I've been wanting to get my hands on a Rewind candle for a long time!
I love lucite trays. And those workout pants are fab. I really want a subscription to one of the Fitness boxes out there. That's such a great gift idea!
Love that lucite monogram tray! You can actually DIY them if you want to be really budget friendly. I've also heard really good things about the fitbit, maybe I'll add it to my list for after baby!
I've never heard of that candlemaker, but I love burning good sense so thanks for sharing, I'll have to check them out! And yes, workout/running pants! Can never have enough. I'm constantly allllllmost buying things on Fabletics but I've yet to pull the trigger and I don't know why! Have you bought anything there? Oh and the Elements of Style book, I would love that too. I used to follow the blog and I just love her style.
These are awesome gift ideas! Loving #7 🙂 Thanks for sharing!! -xx

i totally act like a child around christmas, getting presents is my fave haha!
um the glossybox is a BRILLIANT idea, why didn't I think of that?!
I'm with you one the getting of the gifts! I love to give but I sure do love to get! My mom asked me what I wanted and I told her I'd blog my wishlist soon!

You are so not alone! I love getting gift cards. I know a lot of people think it's boring or easy, but I love them. Last year my boyfriend's mom got us gas cards, movie passes, a VS card for me, and a bunch of gift cards for restaurants we wouldn't have tried otherwise. It was awesome!! Great list. I hope some of them find their way under your tree 🙂
I've heard such great things about those rewined candles! I may just have to add some of these to my list!
I am SO with you…I'm like a five year old when it comes to giving and getting Christmas gifts. Love your list, especially the rewined candles.
Sooo many good things on your list! I'm kicking myself for not asking for a beauty box for a gift! GlossyBox seems like such a good one! I need to check out those candles too- do you have a favorite scent?
I love candles so much and those tights are super cute!
I hadn't heard of glossybox yet that one looks great! and I need a fitbit!

This is a great list – I think both gift cards are subscription boxes are perfect options! Like you said, there are so many great subscription boxes these days – tough to choose!

I have not jumped on the fit bit wagon, but I am seriously considering it!
I love this gift guide! I'm for sure stealing some of these ideas 🙂

You are definitely not alone! I think everyone secretly loves getting gifts! Love the Bauble Bar pendant! And you can never go wrong with giftcards!
I'm so like a kid this time of year. While I totally love getting presents nothing brings more joy than giving to others. i just love it! Love your wishlist! The fitbit is a good one!!
Jayme @ Her Late Night Cravings
Your definitely not alone with keeping a running list of things! I think it's a great way to make sure you give someone ideas of what you truly want when they ask! 🙂 I hope you get lots of goodies off your list! 🙂
I'm asking for a Fitbit too! I hope to get one!
