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.

Just a few of the gems I picked up from the Nordst Just a few of the gems I picked up from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 💛 

After trying on a dozen dresses, these two made the cut (I’m 5’1” and 60 years old) as well as this gorgeous new bag that I couldn’t resist. Classic, versatile, and a little fun—just how I like it!

✨ Which look is your favorite? Tell me in the comments and let me know if you’re shopping the sale too!

Bonus, both dresses are under $100 and I know I’ll wear them for a long time to come. Let me know if you want the links.💖

At 60 years old, I’m walking with intention — At 60 years old, I’m walking with intention — and a weighted vest. Adding this simple tool to my daily walk is already making a difference in how I feel, move, and show up for myself.

Here’s why women over 50 might want to give it a try:
1️⃣ Supports Bone Health: Extra weight = gentle resistance = stronger bones = less chance of fractures in the future.
2️⃣ Improves Muscle Tone & Posture: Great for balance and core strength.
3️⃣ Burns More Calories: A simple walk becomes a low-impact strength workout.
P.S. It’s great for men & women of all ages!💪🏼

It’s never too late to level up your wellness routine. And you can get the benefits while doing your house chores, going up and down stairs, gardening, etc. for even more opportunities to improve bone density.

Do you walk with a weighted vest too? I’d love to hear how it’s helped you!
