The Holiday Season: The Crowd Pleasers Gift Guide 2024
Hard to please? Oh, please...
Welcome to the latest installment of this year’s holiday gift guide, featuring ten obsessively curated collections of joyful discoveries and new classics. From gifts small enough to fit inside a stocking to ones best worn by a fire, thoughtful essentials with an elevated twist, irresistible scents, foolproof personal touches, out-of-the-box crowd pleasers, playful conversation starters and hidden gems they’ll want to repurchase — this year’s holiday gift guide includes the extravagant, the understated, the eclectic, the timeless and everything in-between. Every installment contains an assortment of my most coveted items and it won’t take long to find something for most everyone on your list, including (and especially for) yourself. While every collection has a theme (we love a theme), they’re intended to be mixed and matched, combed through and delved into, explored and bookmarked for all of your gift-giving needs this holiday season and throughout the year. New collections will be ready to unwrap over the coming week and you can find every installment of this year’s gift guide here. Let’s get gifting.

Treat yourself with the collection of carefully selected crowd pleasers that are guaranteed to dazzle even the hardest to please person on your list — and as a notoriously picky person, I would know.
Are they pickier than a toddler at dinner? Do they have *very* specific taste? Have they been known to pay great attention to even the smallest details? Would you call them impossible to please? If so, I recommend gifting them this remarkably great holiday set that features all of my very favorite things. Each product is luxurious, indulgent and masterfully made to impress. — save w/ natalie15
When in doubt, gift this unexpected, cheeky and easy to love set that will fill even the biggest holiday Scrooge on your list with joy and cheer. Whether it resides by their bedside or on their bar cart, it’s a conversation starter that proves unpredictable, somewhat eclectic gifts are the real crowd pleasers.
For the skincare lover who seems to have it all, this effective and luxurious moisturizer will soothe even the most sensitive skin and will be the perfect addition to their meticulously curated vanity. — save w/ myskinterest
Gifting the classics is always a good idea, and few options are better than this dazzling forever piece that feels like a splurge without breaking the bank. Endlessly versatile and always in style, they can wear it to their fanciest event or to run errands. — Nat Note: In stock styles go in and out of stock fast (especially around the holidays), don’t wait!
Sometimes even the best, fan favorite gifts need a sidekick. To make it a true Christmas feast, consider pairing it with this absolutely stunning accessory and/or these scented delights. Pat yourself on the back, hold for applause — you deserve it.
If you’re struggling to find a gift for the hard to please, gift them the coziest present that doubles as decor to warm up any space and will hold up better than anything they already have even after years of daily use.
Gift them the kind of elevated wardrobe essential that they’ll wish they had for years and will make them feel like they belong in a Nancy Meyers film. Made to be lived in, perfectly tailored for a polished yet relaxed fit and easily styled for every occasion — this is the ultimate foolproof gift. I personally own several and like it far more than the similar, more expensive options I’ve purchased over the years. I take a size small.
My go-to gifts are the ones I hope to receive myself and this elegant, elevated set is the ultimate upgrade that they’ll treasure for years to come. And the best part? They can toss them right in the wash without any fuss. I take a size small. — save w/ myskinterest
I don’t say this often but you truly cannot go wrong with this cult favorite gift that will easily last them all year.
File this indulgent skincare set under gifts that won’t be returned and are worth every penny. — save w/ myskinterest, which gives you the BFCM sale discount
While everyone loves Jenni Kayne’s internet-famous sweaters, even the discounted prices are staggering. Thankfully, this undeniably chic cashmere cardigan looks and feels like Jenni Kayne without the markup. As a notoriously specific person, even I’m impressed by the cut and colors — so much so that I own several and wear them constantly. Of course, cashmere is a material that requires regular maintenance but a fabric shaver is an easy, effective solve. I take a size small for a slightly oversized fit.
Tis The Season

I really want that blanket! I can’t pick a favorite guide because they all had something that I can use. I haven’t started shopping yet, and I am starting to feel stressed. We host Thanksgiving, so no holiday decorations yet, but we will get a tree on Friday. I’m ready for holiday goodies of all kind!
