Recently I've been getting a lot of gift questions about "What should I get for her?" from my friends. Because of the holiday's, I think a lot of people are wondering this. I know it's hard to find something nice without hurting your wallet. If you want to get a little something for your friends who are female, and you have many friends to get gifts for, this post is for you! Hope these suggestions will help you (I will have "Something for him under $15" posted soon):

1. J.Crew Glitter Cheveron-stripe Notebook, $12.50. A pretty and practical gift. I just get my eyes off of this since I saw it on J.Crew's Pinterest.

2. J.Crew Chevron Coasters, $12.50. Beautiful color and amazing pattern, a great decoration for home.

3. Essie All in One Color Adhesive + Primer, $10. If your friend is a big fan of nail polish, but you don't know what color she will like, the color primer is the one thing she will definitely need and like.

4. Anthropologie Limited Edition Golden Monogram Mug, $10. A personalized gift. If there is a party, you will never mess up which cup is who's.

5. Anthropologie Zodiac Notepad, $10. For the one who loves and believes in the zodiac sign, this is a perfect choice.

6. Topshop Ankle Socks, $6. I think socks are the best holiday gift ever, simple and warm. Topshop has so many choices for ankle socks, I love them.

7. Kiehl's (Scented) Lip Balm #1, $7-$9. This one is one of my favorite lip balms. I can't live without it during the winter.

8. L'OCCITANE Shea Butter Hand Cream 1 oz, $12. Everyone needs hand cream in the cold and dry weather. This one has such a good review and consider to be L'OCCITANE's best-selling hand creams.

For someone who is looking for a new set of dish towels for their kitchen this year, or just looking for a holiday gift for friends or family, here are my kitchen towel picks. I like my kitchen towels to look natural, cozy, and soft. So, linen and simple stripes or plaid decorations are my first choice when I am purchasing new towels. While researching online I was very surprised to see that Anthropology (one of my favorite brands) has many well-designed dish towels in their collection. This made it very hard to pick just one of them. Which one is your favorite?

1. Everyday Occasions Natural Linen Napkins - Set of 4, $32

2. IKEA Dish towel (2 pack), check pattern, $4.99

3. Anthropologie Wash & Dry Dishtowel Set, $24

HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE


I can't wait to share today's topic with my readers, it's all about what I consider to be good product design. I've been studying Product Design for the past six years. The reason I love it is because it can change and improve people's live so much. Bringing convenience and joy to everyone's day. A small but interesting product is a really good gift for the people that you love. Here are some of my suggestions of designer home accsessories from my favorite design companies. Most of them are affordable, playful and very creative! Hope this post can help you find the best gift for the coming holiday's! Happy Friday!

1. Umbra Menagerie Cat Bottle Topper, $10. A playful bottle topper bring joy to the kichen.

2. Umbra Ring Holders, $8-$10. A functional ring holder designed as vivid animal shape, it also can be the decretive pieces for your home.

3. Joseph Joseph Pie™ Timer (60 minute kitchen timer), $15. I absolutely love everything from their kitchenware line. This Pie Timer is so easy to use (simply twist) and no batteries required!

4. Joseph Joseph Double Dish™ Large snack bowl, $25. The main serving dish with compartments provides several places for serving a variety of snacks and foods,  and a convenient area for collecting and hiding food waste.

5. Areaware Bottle Opener, $14. I am really surprised by the simplicity of this design. A perfect combination of rustic and exquisite.

6. Areaware Reality Bank in Form of Pig, $125-$240. This product is the most expensive one in my post, but I've loved it since I saw it sitting on their table at the Areaware party during ICFF. It's cast from a pig that died of natural causes. This story definitely increased the emotion of this design.

7. Alessi LUPITA Dog Bowl, $62. Alessi's design is really beautiful and sculpted. This dog bowl will be a beautiful piece at home. Great gift for someone who love their dogs as much as themselves!

8. Kikkerland Log Head Rest, $22. A pillow that looks like a log, sleep in comfort and bring a more natural look to your home.
