Christmas Gift Guide 2016: The Ladies


Almost every single year I have NO idea what I want for Christmas and get so flustered when people ask me. This year I took note of things I needed/wanted as the year went on and as Christmas has gotten closer I've been looking for the best deals and snatching them up, so guess what? I've already gotten all my Christmas presents! It won't be very exciting for me Christmas morning, but I'm loooving my new jeans and baseball cap :) I put together a list of somewhat affordable gift ideas for new mommas, sisters, friends, and ladies in general (some of which I asked for this year). Enjoy!

This palette has GREAT reviews and, if you ask me, has the best grouping of colors. They are all very usable for everyday or a special occasion! I love all the neutrals combined with some deep purples to make in interesting. Treat yourself and ask for this yummy-smelling (smells like chocolate!) and compact little eye shadow palette for Christmas this year. Stop wasting your time with cruddy drugstore palettes, you won't regret it! 


If you're a momma or a woman in general, you know what a pain it is to wash, dry, and style your hair everyday. This hat is the answer! I'm not saying you shouldn't wash your hair for a week because you can just throw this hat on.....ok maybe I am saying that. Pick your fav team or your hubby's (if you're like me and don't give a poo about Major League Baseball). Here and here are some really cute Mariner's hats and here is a Texas Longhorn's one.


I drop my phone about 80 times a day. Poor thing. I got a brand new, $25 case in July, and it's totally busted. Since I like slim and minimal phone cases, I've decided to start getting cheap ones, sincye they don't last long anyway! The more glitter, the better. Am I right?


Perfect manicures that last forever at home without the cost of a nail salon? Yes, please!



THIS BOOK. If you love Chip and Jo, you must read this. And if you don't know who am I talking about, turn on HGTV and enjoy Season 4. I laughed my booty off, I cried, I remembered what it was like to fall in love :) I love this couple and all they stand for. It is so refreshing to see a family with wholesome values become so popular. Such a fun read.



All-time fav perfume. Ever. Smell yummy and elegant all at the same time. And the scent lasts forever. Like days. But I wouldn't know because I shower daily and never re-wear clothes....Also the roller ball is perfect for throwing in your purse/diaper bag and is a great size for flying.




These jeans have changed my life! No more cheapo Forever 21 or Target jeans. These things are sturdy, suck you in in all the right places, and don't break the bank! They come in tons of shades, but Mountain Sound is probably my favorite. They can be dressed up with boots and a long cardi or dressed down with a tee and your cute new baseball cap. Meanwhile, your bum is lookin' cute and they are not getting stretched out and falling down all day. Also carried at Macy's and usually on sale for $39.99.



This is SUCH a good deal for an amazing book. I cried and cried and CRIED through this story. The strength and faith this woman has impressed me and changed me. And she was so young and was so hurt, but was able to turn her huge misfortune into a beautiful opportunity to help others. Download it for your Kindle (or the Kindle app) here for $7.99.

Thanks for reading!
