Ladies Holiday Gift Guide 2015

November 5, 2015

Are you ready for the holiday season?  I don’t know about you, but I don’t ever feel ready for the holidays until they’re just a few days away.  Then I panic!  I’m a total procrastinator.  I get things done best when I’m feeling the pressure.  This year I’ve already been scoping out good holiday deals, both in stores and online.  I’ve picked out some beauty items and jewelry that I think will make great gifts for the ladies on your gift list.  Many of the beauty items are limited editions and are available in limited quantities.  The good ones sell out early.  So, if there’s something that you want to buy as a gift or for yourself, don’t wait too long.

Laura Mercier Matte to Metal Caviar Sticks – This set is high on my wish list.  For $58 you get 6 of the beautiful caviar sticks that can be used as a base or eye shadow.  The set has colors that can be used by everyone.  Again, this is a set that can be given to a single recipient or broken up for several people on your gift list.

Buxom Leave Your Mark Lip Set –  Not gonna lie, I already purchased 3 sets of these lip products from Buxom.  You get 15 lip polish and lip creams total in a festive box.  You can give the entire box to one person or break it up.  Examples would be to give a lip polish, candy cane and hot chocolate to 15 of your favorite friends, coworkers or neighbors.  The set is $59 at Sephora.

This palette is sure to please all makeup lovers.  It’s the Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector palette that includes the Champagne Pop by Jaclyn Hill.  It’s a 5 star product.  I’ve only heard great reviews on this one and want it for myself!  $34 at Sephora

Sephora Ombre Face Palette – An innovative blush palette with four ombré shades, four single shades, and one universally flattering luminizer.  This set has colors that will work on everyone and is a sure pleaser.  It’s limited edition and available for $34 at Sephora.

Like every other female in the country, I love jewelry from Kendra Scott as well as Stella and Dot.  Both lines have so much to offer in the way of holiday gifts.  They both have a nice variety of price points for good quality jewelry.    I have several pieces from both lines and thought I’d make a few recommendations that would be sure to please.

Kendra Scott’s Elle Earrings are probably some of her most popular of all.  They’re available in at least 30 different colors and in several different metal colors.  I highly recommend these for teens to grandmas.  I have a few pairs and love wearing them.  The price varies ($55-$65) depending on the stone that you choose.

The Kendra Scott Phara Necklace is a stunner.  It’s pretty in both the gold and silver.  My daughter has this necklace and every time she wears it I remember that I want one for myself too.  It’s perfect for all ages.  This one retails for $120.

Here’s another item that I’ve already ordered for my gift giving this year.  It’s the Sparkle Stud Earrings that are from Stella and Dot.  They retail for only $19.  They’re a great alternative to wearing your real diamond studs on a daily basis.

The Stella & Dot Renegade Bracelet is a long time love of mine.  I consider it an oldie, but a goodie!  I love to pair it with so many different styles of jewelry.  It comes in 3 metal choices too!  I believe it’s $59 retail.

Tell me what’s on your holiday wish list.  I’d love to know!

    I am giving some thought to the Becca palette with the 20% off at Sephora, it’s fairly affordable. I bought a Becca Skin Perfector in Rose Gold and the shade is too dark for me so I’d love to see if the shades in the new palette are a better fit for me. The Sephora palette looks great too.

Last week, the Cancer Hope Network brought the com Last week, the Cancer Hope Network brought the community together in Morristown, NJ for an incredible day of golf and pickleball.

Their fundraising tournaments were filled with hope, connection, and support for those facing cancer by providing free, one-on-one support to cancer patients and their loved ones. 💙 

Are you or someone you know is facing a cancer diagnosis? You can learn more about this amazing organization or donate, by visiting cancerhopenetwork.org today!

Cancer Hope Network provides free, confidential, one-on-one emotional support to people impacted by cancer — including patients, survivors, and their loved ones.

Here’s how they do it:

* 💬 Peer Support: They match individuals facing cancer with trained volunteer support mentors who are cancer survivors or caregivers themselves. These mentors offer guidance, hope, and understanding from someone who’s “been there.”
* 🤝 Personalized Matching: Matches are based on factors like diagnosis, treatment type, age, gender, and personal concerns — ensuring relatable and meaningful connections.
* 💙 Support for Everyone: They offer support not just for patients, but also for caregivers, family members, and friends who are navigating a loved one’s cancer journey.
* 💯 Always Free & Confidential: Services are available at no cost, nationwide, regardless of insurance or treatment center affiliation.

Cancer Hope Network’s mission is simple but powerful: “No one should face cancer alone.”
