Holiday Gifts for Her Under $50

December 18, 2014

Still wondering what to buy someone on your gift giving list?  Here are my picks for last-minute holiday gifts for her under $50.  You don’t have to spend a lot to get good quality thoughtful gifts.  Many of these gifts can be purchased in your local shops if you don’t mind dealing with last-minute crowds.  Personally, I hate crowds and searching for items so I just pull out my handy laptop and shop away.  I think that’s both good and bad how easy it is to shop online these days.  It can be nice and easy yet dangerous to our wallets.  These gifts should ease the damage at less than $50 each.

#1 Travel French Press Coffee Mug

Bodum - Insulated Stainless-Steel Travel French Press Coffee

This is a nice travel size coffee press for those who like to pack their own coffee and tea when traveling.  I’m always a little suspicious of the in-room coffee machines myself.  Just saying…

Bodum – Insulated Stainless-Steel Travel French Press Coffee and Tea Mug, 0.45-Liter, 15-Ounce, Black – $30.00, 6.67 shipping – Available at Amazon.com

 

#2 A Scarf

Ralph Lauren - LAUREN by Ralph Lauren Joyce Oblong Scarf Scarves

And who doesn’t love a gorgeous scarf?  One of my favorite sites to find others is from Moon Cats in NYC.  Use the code BLACK20THEJOOLS for $20 off a $50 order.

Ralph Lauren – LAUREN by Ralph Lauren Joyce Oblong Scarf Scarves (Black) – $29.99, Free shipping – Available at 6pm.com

#3 Nail Polish Set

Lippmann Collection - Collection Rock This Town Nail Polish Gift Set 3 Piece Set

This nail polish set is perfect for the lady who likes to polish her nails.  This particular set has lots of sparkle and shine that can be worn all the way through the spring months.

Lippmann Collection – Collection Rock This Town Nail Polish Gift Set 3 Piece Set – $25.00, 5.00 shipping – Available at Neiman Marcus

#4 Cross – Franklin Covey Freemont Fountain Pen Med Point by FranklinCovey – Satin/Chrome

Cross - Franklin Covey Freemont Fountain Pen Med Point by FranklinCovey - Satin/Chrome

Fountain pens are classic.  They display beautifully and look so sophisticated when paying your monthly bills.  Might as well look good when signing your money away.

Cross – Franklin Covey Freemont Fountain Pen Med Point by FranklinCovey – Satin/Chrome – $19.99, 6.00 shipping – Available at FranklinCovey

 

#5 Aldo – Aldo Edroyth Shoulder Bag,Grey Felt/Tan,One Size

Aldo - Aldo Edroyth Shoulder Bag,Grey Felt/Tan,One Size

I saw this tote on Oprah’s website. It’s the perfect size for carrying a laptop and your stash of beauty products for a day out.  The best part is that it looks like an expensive designer bag yet it’s very affordable.

Aldo – Aldo Edroyth Shoulder Bag,Grey Felt/Tan,One Size – $36.73, Free shipping – Available at Amazon.com

 

#6 Fine Leather Journal with Free Embossing – Personalized Gift

Fine Leather Journal with Free Embossing - Personalized Gift

I think everyone should have a journal.  This beautiful leather one can be personalized.  I actually ordered one of these for my husband with his initials on it because he likes to take a journal type of notebook into meetings for note taking.

Fine Leather Journal with Free Embossing – Personalized Gift – $39.95, See Site shipping – Available at GiftTree.com

 

#7 Phoenix Technologies – Infuser Water Bottle 27 Ounce – FREE Recipe Booklet with Order* – Made of Eastman TritanTM – Create Your Own Flavored Water, Naturally, with Ingredients YOU Select | The Fun & Healthy Way to Enjoy Your Daily Water.

Phoenix Technologies - Infuser Water Bottle 27 Ounce

We all know that staying hydrated is so important.  For those who find plain water to be boring this is the perfect solution.  You can infuse your own creations and take it with you on the go.

Phoenix Technologies – Infuser Water Bottle 27 Ounce – FREE Recipe Booklet with Order* – Made of Eastman TritanTM – Create Your Own Flavored Water, Naturally, with Ingredients YOU Select | The Fun & Healthy Way to Enjoy Your Daily Water. – $12.99, Free shipping – Available at Amazon.com Marketplace

 

#8 Perfume

Britney Spears - Fantasy 3.4oz Edp Spray by Britney Spears

This is one of my favorite fragrances.  I’ve purchased it for my daughter several times and she loves it.  It’s a pretty scent and not obnoxious to those around you, like some perfumes can be.  I would wear this myself and I’m almost 50 years old.

Britney Spears – Fantasy 3.4oz Edp Spray by Britney Spears – $27.99 (48% off), 3.99 shipping – Available at Perfume Emporium

 

#9 Kate Spade Earrings

Kate Spade - New York Knot Stud Earrings - Gold

I have these earrings and I LOVE them!  As long as she has pierced ears you won’t go wrong with these.

Kate Spade – New York Knot Stud Earrings – Gold – $33.60 (20% off), 4.98 shipping – Available at Amazon.com

#10 Conde Nast – Self All Access

Conde Nast - Self All Access + Free Lunch Bag, Six Body Booklets, & $5 Amazon.com Gift Card

I think all women enjoy reading magazines, particularly ones that have some inspiration and self-help articles to make us realize that we’re not alone.  This is a VERY affordable gift that should make any lady happy.  Look at this deal because you get SO much more included with the $8 purchase.

Conde Nast – Self All Access + Free Lunch Bag, Six Body Booklets, & $5 Amazon.com Gift Card – $8.00, Free shipping – Available at Amazon.com

One dress that can pretty much be worn year round… yes, please! Just change the shoes and accessories and create a whole new look. #ad 

In the meantime, I’m loving this versatile style from @coldwatercreek that can be worn to brunch or lunch, to the office, or even for a night out on the town this Fall season.

It’s a soft knit that couldn’t be more comfortable. It looks great styled with a belt too.

Be sure to visit coldwatercreek.com for all of their new Fall styles or comment SHOP for links.

Just a few vacation highlights while we were able Just a few vacation highlights while we were able to enjoy some sunny outdoor fun.

Currently enjoying the same views, but from under an umbrella. No complaints from me!

Let’s face it, we all have insecurities. One of Let’s face it, we all have insecurities. One of mine is the vertical lip lines in and above my lips. 

When @rebekahstarkey_np told me about this type of treatment, I was intrigued (but nervous). I did my research and decided it was time to just go for it. 

The numbing cream and Rebekah’s skill and attention to detail made a huge difference. I didn’t feel a thing and I’m so excited to see the difference in a few short weeks.

Skinvive is a hyaluronic acid treatment that is used for hydration, texture and radiance.

Yes, I did have some swelling and bruising, but things are already looking better.

Skin Pharm started in Nashville and now has locations in Texas, Georgia, Florida, the Carolina’s and opening soon in IL. Check to see if they have one near you for all of your cosmetic dermatology needs to help you feel more confident too!💖

Since I’m trying to use more clean sustainable products both in my home and on my body, I wanted to share an online marketplace for 1000’s of carefully curated and vetted essentials including cleaning products that are free of harsh chemicals, clean beauty products, expert curated vitamins and SO MUCH MORE!

My first box arrived at my home last week and I was so happy to see everything that I ordered including some clean beauty products to take on this vacation.

In fact, I’m over here ordering a few more things to change out nearly all of my home cleaning supplies to healthier options (great prices too).

Enjoy your day! I’m relaxing under an umbrella on the beach in Cabo today.🏖️

One dress, two looks!✨ This soft + comfy green One dress, two looks!✨

This soft + comfy green knit tank dress from Coldwater Creek comes with a matching long sleeve sweater for endless styling options. #ad

Wear it during the day as a tank style and switch it up for the night with the cropped sweater when the temperature cools off.

It’s flattering, fun, and available in multiple colors—perfect for every body. 

I love wearing it with the tall black boots and adding a few finishing touches.
