As a stylist, finding new items for my wardrobe while shopping for others is an occupational hazard. I mean, if I’m shopping for a client, and happen to come across an item or twelve for myself, that’s just God’s way of telling me I need something new.
I have the same philosophy when it comes to holiday shopping. I mean, what’s the point of scouring sites and scooping up sales if you don’t reward yourself with something special? Isn’t that almost-exactly the point?
Of course, as with all shopping, I make sure anything I pick up, for myself and for others, is either special and thoughtful, or truly useful. None of us need any additional junk lying around. That’s why these items were carefully chosen to solve a problem, fill a need, or bring lasting joy.
And while this roundup is designed to help you treat yourself, these gifts would be perfect for any special female on your list. And of course, you can find them all in my Holiday Gift Guide.
