i’ve had a few requests for gift guides this year (2016’s colour gift guides were a huge hit!) but dang, i just haven’t had the time. also we are leaving for our summer holiday on Thursday!!! we’re actually taking holiday way earlier than we usually do, since Anton and i both freelance we decided to take the gap – after a long, hard year – and just go for it.
that said, i made some time to put together a list of things for totally last minute treat yo self gift guide. these are basically the things i would go out and buy myself. so if you know someone who is anything like me, or likes the things that are posted on this blog, then this is for them! or forward this to your significant other – a hint is always welcome. or perhaps you ultimately just want to treat YOURSELF? then go ahead, you don’t need an excuse. not even Christmas, this is for any day of the year.
have you ever wanted a fancy plant mister? oh, you didn’t know that you did? me neither!
this might seem like a weird gift, but the perfect pair of jeans go a looooong way.
i wear Santal 33, and i’ve never been complimented more by strangers “what are you wearing??”
this particular one is by Basin and Range. i also like this one and this one and this one and these.
i am predictable like this, but this Aesop hand cream (ahem, ‘balm’) never leaves my bag.
a Carry-On that charges your devices? sign me up. also the colour choices are just fantastic.
mugs are honestly one of my favourite gifts. i also like this one and this one and all of these.
A Beanie with Built-In Headphones.
what can i say? i like avoiding people on the streets and this is the best way to do that.
the most flattering thing to wear on Christmas Day, whether it’s hot or cold. i like the polka dot one too.
i like this little blush one too. don’t like colour? classic black always works.
The new Annie Liebovitz is a must have. also this Bowie one and this one about Sneakers.
These ones are by Marjolein Delhaas. i also like this one and this one and this one and this one.
I’m also going to keep adding ideas to the 2017 Gift Guide Pinterest board.
HAVE A HAPPY CHRISTMAS!
