I\u2019m famously hard to shop for, \u201cimpossible\u201d they say (it\u2019s true). But I\u2019ve learned that saying \u201cplease don\u2019t get me anything!!\u201d results in stress for all. And listen, I wouldn\u2019t want anything under the tree at all except we don\u2019t want the kids to think that this holiday is just about them \u2013 we have to even it out a bit. So I combed all my favorite shops, and while I\u2019m obviously not asking for all of this stuff, you bet I sent Brian and his Mom some links (she was jonesing to check some boxes). They don\u2019t have to stress and I get some things I want \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

On Emily: Beanie | Parka Jacket | Jeans | Sneakers
Not on Emily: Brown Leather Crossbody Purse | Green Clutch | Boots<\/p>\n

I did recently get a few things that I threw on for you \u2013 that puffy coat that I get compliments on every single time I wear it (which is most days). It\u2019s hard to see the collar, but it\u2019s an electric blue stripe \u2013 stylish, comfortable, and yes, you can wear it over pajamas for drop-off and look effortlessly cool (LOL). The clog boots in the background are excellent (very, very comfortable considering the height), and the jeans have cargo pockets that I feel are really flattering.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

On Emily: Beanie | Parka Jacket | Jeans | Sneakers
Not on Emily: Brown Leather Crossbody Purse | Green Clutch<\/p>\n

I feel like outerwear and accessories are something you can buy others and\/or not need to try on in a store (i.e. a safer gift bet), so there are a lot of coats, bags, and shoes on this list.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Olive Rhodes Shearling Quarter Zip | Utility Capelet<\/p>\n

I like a longer fleece that drapes well (versus one that makes my upper half more voluminous) \u2013 the contrasting trim on the zipper pockets are top notch and that capelet on the right is ridiculously cute (I find these are especially good for tall people).<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Hawley Half-Zip\u00a0Sweat | Gear Check Vest<\/p>\n

You won\u2019t believe how soft this Varley double soft fabric is on that brown quarter zip \u2013 it falls and drapes so perfectly \u2013 I reach for it daily, and I\u2019ve washed it like 15 times, and it\u2019s still in perfect shape (comes in a lot of colors, too). The vest on the right would fit over my weighted vest while I walk the dogs (y\u2019all, I\u2019m up to a 25 lbs vest now \u2013 a real psychopath over here).<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Shearling Barritt Quarter Zip | Khaki Drew Short Trench Coat<\/p>\n

That shearling quarter zip (I guess I love quarter zips?) is so cute, giving Aspen \ud83d\ude42 The short trench on the right is awesome \u2013 so good for spring and fall.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Suzy Denim Jacket | Margarita Jumpsuit<\/p>\n

If you are in need of a new oversized denim jacket, this chore coat looks really great to layer over (I love the huge pockets, double buttons, and sleeves), I put this jumpsuit in my cart immediately \u2013 I love the ones that aren\u2019t trying to show off curves and instead look utilitarian (Buttercup ate the crotch out of my favorite ones from The Great that I\u2019ve worn for 8 years).<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Black Waxed Large Canvas Tote | Wellington Cabana Tote<\/p>\n

Two really great looking utilitarian bags \u2013 weekend, trunk bags, groceries, etc.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

On Emily: Plaid Coat | Blouse\u00a0|\u00a0Jeans\u00a0|\u00a0Boots
Not on Emily: Brown Leather Crossbody Purse | Green Clutch | Boots | Socks | Sneakers<\/p>\n

By far my favorite purchase of late is this plaid coat \u2013 it fits like an oversized coat but the cut is really flattering and I have found that I can mix that pattern with so many different blouses (like my favorite new blouse above). The boots I\u2019m wearing there are also EXTREMELY comfortable and I think the pointy toe is really elongating (I love the clogs, but they are higher and therefore less \u201crunning around town\u201d shoes, so I wear these boots almost everywhere right now).<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Checked Long Coat | Boucl\u00e9 Long Coat<\/p>\n

I should do a full plaid coat roundup \u2013 there are so many great ones on the market right now. The scale and color of the blue plaid are so awesome \u2013 oversized and cool.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Oversized Double-Breasted Topcoat | Puff-Sleeve Double-Breasted Wool-Blend Long Coat | Wool Blend Oversized Coat<\/p>\n

For those wanting more versatility, the black and gray overcoats are cool and might be easier to dress up if you work in an office.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Gun Club Check Atelier Blazer | Double-Breasted Elbow-Patch Plaid Jacket<\/p>\n

I have to stop myself from buying everything from Emerson Fry (it\u2019s been 15 years now of loving them). Their cuts and fabrics are supreme (and a small American-made business). The blazer on the left looks like something I would wear all the time. The \u201celbow patch\u201d feature on the right one is where it\u2019s at for me.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Sequin Longline Jacket | Natalia Velvet Jacket<\/p>\n

Now for some fun. The sequin jacket is so fun \u2013 I love that you could dress up jeans and a T-shirt for a night out and look instantly like you care. The velvet blue color of that little jacket is perfect.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Scallop Tweed Lady Jacket | Persimmon Floral Jacquard Mirabelle Jacket<\/p>\n

I am not as into the lady jacket trend as most people (I think my boobs are just too big) but these two felt wayyy cooler and more special than others. I ordered the set on the right and I\u2019ll shoot it when I get it. How fun for holiday parties??<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Faux-Fur Coat | Tulle Bomber Jacket<\/p>\n

I bought that faux fur coat, rationalizing to myself that it\u2019s a staple that I\u2019ll love forever (it\u2019s crazy soft and while it is bulky by nature, it\u2019s somehow flattering. Leave it to Anthro to make a tulle bomber jacket \u2013 over a graphic T and with some drop crotch jeans and you have a festive night out that is comfortable and carefree.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Pierro Shirt | Chlo Shirt<\/p>\n

Sezane is another brand where I want EVERYTHING. That lacy white collar would pop out so nicely under a sweatshirt or even layered under a denim shirt or dress (true story).<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Lace-Inset Top | Scarlet and Hot Pink Grove Blouse<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not done with Victorian tops (never will be) and that lace detail keeps it interesting. The colorblocking on that red blouse is powerful \u2013 makes me want to give a TED talk about something!<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Blackwatch Selena Blouse | Ivory Plaid Nicole Shirt<\/p>\n

Holiday, but make it casual and cool (and I\u2019d wear both of these year-round). I ordered these already, fearing they\u2019ll sell out. The dark plaid one on the left also comes in black velvet (which I\u2019m also very tempted by).<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Taylor Crossbody Bag | Petit Moyen Bag<\/p>\n

For a more utilitarian vibe (with a zipper) I love that simple leather boxy bag (with the charm). If you really want to ask for a splurge or surprise someone who has good taste, just go to Clare V \u2013 that navy blue purse is versatile and is totally timeless.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

The Essential Curve Shoulder Bag | The Brigitte Satchel<\/p>\n

The red curve bag is really big (and such a pretty accent color to all my blues). The checked satchel will make any basic outfit look way more fashion-forward.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Margot Ankle Boots | The Dimes Stiletto-Heel Ankle Boot<\/p>\n

Ugh, I don\u2019t need those patent leather boots but they are SO GOOD \u2013 the patent color is excellent, the buckle would look so cute with tights \u2013 the French really know how to dress. I can also convince myself that I\u2019d wear these leopard stiletto boots \u2013 under jeans they look fierce, with barrel pants they\u2019ll look cool proportionally, and of course dressing them up will elongate your leg.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Birkenstock Boston Big Buckle Shearling Clogs | Yellowstone Allistar Pointed Boots<\/p>\n

Blue, fur, gold \u2013 check check check. Then if you have been looking for the right boots to invest in, goodness I love these cowboy boots (in collaboration with the show Yellowstone). They are the least cheesy ones I\u2019ve seen, honestly \u2013 they look real and less try-hard than any others (IMHO).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

This might seem like a boring gift to ask for or give, but I LOVE this bucket bag so much \u2013 it\u2019s perfect for throwing anything in. I use it for design materials for work, park picnics, groceries, farmers market, laundry, and last-minute weekend packing. Strangely versatile and expensive ($90) so not something you want to buy yourself.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Bogg Bag | Waxed Canvas Gathering Bag<\/p>\n

I love the idea of the waxed canvas bag for site visits (where I get dust on everything). Such cute pockets and straps.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Chunky Chain Necklace (similar) | Gold Hoops | Oval Medallion Necklace | Gold and Black Heart Necklace | Interlocked Necklace | Simple Heart Necklace<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not crazy into jewelry so this is going to be mostly what I have that I love to layer together. I\u2019ve been wearing the medallion and the heart necklace nonstop (not together, with simpler chains \u2013 in fact, these from Target are so awesome and I forgot to put them on the list). I like how most of these have a detail \u2013 they feel special but pretty easy to throw on and dress up an outfit.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Gold Elizabeth Necklace | Gold Calder Heart Necklace<\/p>\n

I sent both these links to Brian (and the two below). Statement necklaces are back and I tend to lean away from big jewels, but I sure can do pearls and medallions. <\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Scarf | Gold Necklace<\/p>\n

That silk scarf is so easy for me to justify \u2013 you can wear it like nine different ways and the colors are so pretty.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Hair:<\/strong> Dry Bar The Double Shot Blow-Dryer Brush | Ouai Anti-Frizz Creme | Dry Bar Liquid Glass Miracle Smoothing Sealant
Skin:<\/strong> Vial Capsules | Eye Pads | ExfoliKate Cleanser | Shani Darden Intensive Eye Renewal Cream with Firming Peptides | ExfoliKate Mask | Reusable Cleaning Pads
Makeup:<\/strong> Ole Henriksen Pout Preserve Hydrating Peptide Lip Treatment | Saie Glowy Super Gel Lightweight Dewy Multipurpose Illuminator | Tower 28 LipSoftie\u2122 Hydrating Tinted Lip Treatment Balms | Merit Bronze Balm Sheer Sculpting Bronzer | Merit The Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Foundation and Concealer Stick | Charlotte Tilbury
Hollywood Flawless Filter | Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Natural Skin Perfector Broad Spectrum SPF 30<\/p>\n

Well, that\u2019s quite the list. Yes, this is all stuff I own and love (including the new blow-dryer oval curling brush that is excellent. The Merit concealer is the best (I wear Dune), the Kate Somerville mask is immediately effective, the Charlotte Tilbury highlighter is game-changing, and the ISDIN vials really do seem to add a lot of moisture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Hair:<\/strong> Dry Bar The Double Shot Blow-Dryer Brush | Ouai Anti-Frizz Creme | Dry Bar Liquid Glass Miracle Smoothing Sealant
Skin:<\/strong> Capsules | Eye Pads | ExfoliKate Cleanser | Shani Darden Intensive Eye Renewal Cream with Firming Peptides | ExfoliKate Mask | Reusable Cleaning Pads
Makeup:<\/strong> Ole Henriksen Pout Preserve Hydrating Peptide Lip Treatment | Saie Glowy Super Gel Lightweight Dewy Multipurpose Illuminator | Tower 28 LipSoftie\u2122 Hydrating Tinted Lip Treatment Balms | Merit Bronze Balm Sheer Sculpting Bronzer | Merit The Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Foundation and Concealer Stick | Charlotte Tilbury
Hollywood Flawless Filter | Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Natural Skin Perfector Broad Spectrum SPF 30<\/p>\n

Hollywood Flawless Filter | Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Natural Skin Perfector Broad Spectrum SPF 30<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t feel highly qualified to talk about beauty stuff, but when I went to Sephora to shop I asked the salesperson what people are freaking out about and they guided me to Tower 28 lip gloss (LOVE \u2013 so soft and plumping without stinging), and anything Saie.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

NuFACE Mini+ Toning Set | Sunday Riley Go To Bed With Me Gift Set<\/p>\n

As far as what I personally want \u2013 yes I\u2019d like the mini Nuface \u2013 I usually spend January \u2013 March resetting myself so my nightly routine gets super dialed in, I\u2019d love to try this. This \u201cgo to bed with me\u201d kit sure is good marketing \u2013 I need a system otherwise I go rogue and just use so many random products that might not work well together.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n

Striped Cosmetic Case | Grand Vanity Case<\/p>\n

I\u2019m in the market for a new cosmetic case \u2013 both are so pretty.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Checkered Robe<\/p>\n

Lastly, the robe that I bought for myself (and give as a gift). It\u2019s not that it\u2019s the softest or somehow dries you more magically, but I typically feel so frumpy in big terrycloth robes (not like in the movies). All I can say is that I feel good in this one \u2013 I think simply having a busy fun pattern and having it be a bit oversized looks better. Not sexy\u2026just better<\/em>.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sure I forgot like a million things (like this red light face mask that I love), so perhaps more to come \ud83d\ude42 I hope if nothing else it gives you some ideas of what to ask for or where to shop for others. xx<\/p>\n
