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.

I’m loving the Bae City Bag from Consuela! It’s a fun statement piece, but it’s also incredibly versatile. I especially love wearing it crossbody when I want to be hands-free.

And knowing this bag is handcrafted in Mexico with attention given to every detail makes it feel even more special. Every @ConsuelaStyle bag has so much personality and character. 

If you’re already thinking about your Fall wardrobe, you definitely want to take a peek at the Consuela Fall Collection. There are SO many gorgeous bags and accessories to choose from that are fun and functional.

Go check out the collection and tell me which bag is your favorite!

If you’ve been looking for an easy way to level up If you’ve been looking for an easy way to level up your skincare routine, this is it! #roc_partner
 
I’ve been using the NEW RoC Line Smoothing 2-Step Peel Pads, and I love how simple they are to use.
 
Step 1 gently exfoliates with a blend of glycolic, lactic, mandelic, and other exfoliating acids to remove dull, rough skin.
 
Step 2 follows with RoC’s patented Clinical Retinol plus Ectoin to help smooth the look of fine lines and wrinkles while supporting your skin barrier. The best part? It takes just a couple of minutes and fits seamlessly into my evening skincare routine.
 
At 61, my skin feels noticeably smoother and looks brighter after using them, and with continued use they’re designed to improve texture, uneven tone, dullness, and the appearance of wrinkles.
 
At around $30 they’re an affordable way to enjoy a professional-inspired peel at home.
 
Are you as excited as I am about this new at-home dual-step treatment?

There’s something about a makeup collection that’s There’s something about a makeup collection that’s beautiful on the outside AND has a beautiful story behind it.

I’m playing with the Chantecaille Lion Collection for the first time today. The gorgeous shades are inspired by the strength and beauty of the lion and the colors of the African landscape.

But what I love most about Chantecaille is that their love of beauty goes beyond makeup. The brand has a long-standing commitment to wildlife conservation, and their lion initiatives supports Lion Guardians and their efforts to protect these magnificent endangered animals and preserve the communities that live alongside them.

And can we talk about these colors?! The warm, earthy tones are absolutely gorgeous for creating a soft, sophisticated makeup look — and yes, it’s a limited-edition collection but I’m already wishing these shades would stay around forever!

Would you wear this color story? Tell me in the comments.

Are you ready for the temperatures to drop too?
