2022 HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE

The first thing we want you to do before you select one of the gift ideas from this list is to think about what your partner wants.

The simple secret to great gift-giving is knowing exactly what your partner wants. Giving someone something that they really want, without them telling you, is magical.

Here are 3 ways to find out:

  1. Pay attention to the hints they will be giving (whether directly or indirectly). They will say things like; I really like that fragrance, show you things on TV or social media that they want, or stare at something longer than usual when you're out. Just pay attention.

  2. Look in your partner's closet, shoe rack, or makeup table. If you notice they are running out of their favorite fragrance, get them more. If you notice they like a particular makeup, buy them that. If you see they are wearing the same shoes, clothes, etc., replace them with something similar or better.

  3. Check your social media DMs. They probably shared things with you throughout the year that they liked. It just takes a little bit of work to scroll through your messages.

Now, after doing that little research, you can pick something from these gifting categories. These are the top categories for the perfect gift.

  • Jewelry: If they have a ring, get them a necklace. If they have a necklace, get them a bracelet, etc. Don't gift them something they already have unless they explicitly asked for it.

Recommendation: Discover curated fine jewelry for every style and occasion. From elevated essentials to coveted heirloom-quality pieces, Helzberg Diamonds have masterfully crafted styles your partner will love for a lifetime. (Browse jewelry sections here). This site also has some really nice pieces, and they are offering discounts. (Check them out here)

  • Fragrance: Buy something they currently wear or something similar.

Recommendation: Perfume is an intensely personal gift that's a wonderful choice for your nearest and dearest this holiday season. It's a gift that will remind your partner of how much you care every time they wear it. (Browse the Perfumania fragrance holiday guide here).

  • Makeup: Be very careful with this one. Most people are very particular about the makeup brand they like.

Recommendation: Check out Macy's for great deals on makeup [here] or make it easy and pick up a beauty box with a variety of beauty products from Allure. They have a 50% off promo running right now. (Learn more here

  • Handbag: Get a sense of what style they are into now. They might want a small bag or large bag, or maybe just a new small wallet to fit in that bigger bag you got them prior.

Recommendation: Check out Macy's for good selections [here].

  • Shoes: Get a sense of what style they are into now. This might be daytime shoes like espadrilles or date night heels.
