Gift Guides

This is where you’ll find all of my gift guides, including the holiday gift guides 2022. My goal with these guides is to make gift-giving less stressful and more enjoyable for you by curating my top picks for different categories. I personally love looking at blogger gift guides because they give me ideas and inspiration I might not have otherwise. If there’s a category you’d like to see that isn’t included in our 2022 holiday gift guides, let me know via the FAQ page. Happy shopping!

2021 Gift Guides: Grill Master For Him

Hope you love the products featured in this guide, and want you to know that I may receive compensation for some or all of the products featured here. Okay so these could totally be considered gifts for him… and you. I love when Duncan grills for us so any of these items would be a total treat for me too. I’ve talked a lot about the Yummly Smart Meat Thermometer — it’s truly…

Backcountry Gift Guide for Her & Him

This time of year, I’m practically living in leggings and comfy pullovers or jackets. As it starts to cool off here in Dallas, I like to be bundled up for my morning walks. A few months ago, I shared all about why I love going on my daily 30-minute walks and how Backcountry is my favorite place to shop for activewear and other pieces that help me stay active and…

2021 Gift Guides: For The Hostess

With so many parties and events happening this time of year, I like to have a few hostess gifts on hand to bring with me. Sure, you can always go with a classic bottle of wine but these gifts are so fun. I recently picked up one of these Hotel Lobby Candles for our house and cannot get over how GOOD it smells. You’ve also probably seen me talking a lot about…

2021 Gift Guides: Gifts For Him

Is it just me or can men sometimes be the hardest to shop for!? I actually really love shopping for Duncan. He has great taste and fortunately, loves most of what I pick out for him. But for those of you who are stumped on what to buy the husband, boyfriend, dad, cousin, friend, etc. in their life, I’ve got you covered with some great items for him, including these…

The Holiday Gift Wrap I’m Using This Year

Wrapping Details: Gingham Wrapping Paper // Gold Wrapping Paper // Ribbon I’ve been so excited about the holidays this year. I’ve actually gotten a headstart on my gift lists (thanks, shipping delays!) which is probably a big reason I’m in full-on holiday mode — if you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen I already have my tree up. NO SHAME! Whether you’re Team Early Holiday or you’re more of a…

2021 Gift Guides: For Your BFF

Is there anything better than shopping for your best friends!? I love buying gifts for other people so much, especially my close friends. I always try to get them something I know they’ll love but that they wouldn’t necessarily buy for themselves like this Pure Silk Sleep Mask or the Lily and Bean Hettie Mini Bag y’all know I’ve been OBSESSED with lately. If you follow me on Instagram, you may have also seen…

10 Experiences You Can Gift This Year

The older I get, the fewer “things” I want. Maybe it’s because I don’t want to collect more clutter in my home, but I also just enjoy experiences more and more. Whether it’s a spa day with Duncan or listening to a book I’ve been wanting to read via Audible, there’s just something so nice about receiving a gift that I can actually do. When I posted a question on…

2021 Gift Guides: Baby

Before I had four, I truly had no idea what babies enjoy doing. I would get invited to birthday parties for my friends’ kids and was at a total loss at what to buy for a gift. So, whether you’re on the hunt for a Christmas gift for your niece, nephew, etc., or you just need some ideas for your own kiddo, I hope this gift guide can help. Most…

2021 Gift Guides: Brighton’s Favorite Things

I feel like I’ve said this a few times now, but it’s possible that this gift guide was my favorite to put together for y’all (and for obvious reasons). If not my favorite, it was definitely the easiest because it’s basically a round-up of my most-used and most commonly shared items. They’re all tried and tested by yours truly, so I can all but guarantee a friend/sister/mom – anyone –…

The Suede Leggings of My Dreams

Can we talk about these Spanx suede leggings for a minute? Y’all know I love me some Spanx (I recently shared these amazing flared pants on the blog) but I typically stick with their classic leggings or even their faux leather leggings. But when I discovered their suede leggings, it was game over. These are hands down some of the most flattering leggings I’ve ever worn and I love that they’re just…

Faith

2021 Gift Guides: Faith Based

Oh hey, it’s me again with another gift guide! This guide was fun because I got to tap into some of my go-to items that help me stay in the Word every day like this personalized journaling Bible and I found a few new things I want to add my own Christmas list this year like these double ended highlighters (anyone else love taking notes during quiet time?!). These gifts would be great for someone…

2021 Gift Guides: Luxe

Bringing out the luxe gift guide today as I know some of you love to go this route with gift-giving. I have and love several of these items (obsessed with my Gucci mules – they’re timeless!) or have them on my own personal luxe wishlist this year (Duncan, if you’re reading this – this bag would be very much appreciated lol), so I don’t think you can go wrong with…

2021 Gift Guides: Best of QVC

My love for QVC runs deep, y’all! They’re one of my go-to stops when I’m doing my holiday shopping because they’ve always got great deals going on. Throughout the year, I’m usually able to find most of my favorite items on this site (or things I’ve had my eye on) at a lower price than anywhere else — so I knew a QVC gift guide for the holidays was a…

2021 Gift Guides: The Expecting Mama

This gift guide for the expecting mama was such a sweet one to put together. It brought back all the memories and feelings of being pregnant with Four! I included some of the go-to items that I couldn’t live without like these Lake maternity pajamas and a few things I wish I’d known about like this body stone moisturizer. Whether you know an expecting mama or are an expecting mama, these items will…

Beauty

2021 Gift Guides: Beauty-Lover

Another gift guide is live for y’all today and this one might be my favorite yet!

The Coziest Half-Zip Pullover You’ll Ever Find

I’ve gotta admit that I kind of miss the cold fall weather we got in Denver. It was perfect weather to cozy up in an oversized sweatshirt or super soft pullover every day. Even though we’re back in Texas where the October temps are in the 80s, I still welcome any opportunity to sport a cozy top. This Varley half-zip pullover is my current obsession because it’s seriously the SOFTEST pullover…

Fitness

2021 Gift Guides: Fitness

Today’s gift guide is all about shopping for the fitness lover in your life. This is the kind of person who loves to close their rings every day on their apple watch (and if they don’t already have an apple watch, they definitely need one!) or has been eyeing one of those cool Hypervolt massage devices for months! Sometimes they can be tricky to shop for so hopefully this gives…
