The Holiday Season: The Homebody Gift Guide 2024
Nancy Meyers and I collaborated to bring you the ultimate gift guide for the homebodies in your life.
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 home comforts of all persuasions for the hibernators, the nesters, the first to leave and homebodies on your list.
But first… There’s no place like home. Like all gift lists, each collection in this year’s holiday gift guide is a reflection of me. However, to know me is to know that I’m the ultimate homebody — an indoor cat of sorts — and I cherish the comforts of home more than anything else. And while I stand behind each and every collection, this one is truly my favorite. I hope you enjoy.
For the hibernators and the homebodies, few gifts are as foolproof as an elegant upgrade on their everyday wardrobe essential. It’s exactly the kind of item they wouldn’t splurge on for themself but would absolutely love to receive (trust me). Even the most stylish homebody will fall for the limited edition colors and impeccable attention to detail that distinguishes this set from the knockoffs. Plus, they can wear it to bed and to answer the door for the fourth delivery of the day. I take a size small. — save w/ myskinterest
Gift the pragmatic homebody one of the most versatile pieces in my wardrobe, one that’s perfectly lightweight, easy to layer and will quickly become a mainstay in their closet. Not heavy enough to be a sweater and not light enough to be a shirt, it’s comfortable enough to wear while watching late-night Bravo reruns yet polished enough to toss on for the Zoom call they completely forgot about. I take a size small.
Winter weather and forced heat can wreak havoc on their skin but the elements are simply no match for these routine-changing essentials that they’re sure to love and repurchase time and time again. — save w/ myskinterest
As someone with clinically diagnosed insomnia, it’s no secret that sleep isn’t really “my thing” but this surprisingly wonderful addition to my bedtime routine has already become one of my favorite things. — Nat Note: Currently on sale!
If you’re not winning any awards for your gift wrapping, this underrated and easy to love skincare set will make up for untidy edges with impact. Even the pickiest skincare savant will approve of these delightful pods that are safe for (and adored by) all skin types. — save w/ myskinterest10
When choosing the perfect gift for the cozy connoisseur on your list, consider this remarkably warm and incredibly well-made piece that is both practical and visually stunning — making it a delightful addition to their nest. I own two (in the original and large size) and truly cannot recommend them enough. They’re easily one of my favorite purchases of the season.
For the one who swears by their “everything shower” routine and Sunday resets, gift them the gift of a great hair day, everyday. It’s no secret these products have completely transformed my hair, particularly this hydrating hair hero. — save w/ natalie15
The architect of comfort knows that a night in isn’t complete without the warm glow of their favorite candle and you can’t go wrong with this under the radar seasonal delight. If their candle collection is already overflowing, help them set the scene with this luxuriously weighted and undeniably stunning accessory that doubles as decor. Top it off with this set of elevated candle essentials or even a set of my personal favorites for a truly foolproof gift.
My go-to gifts are the ones I hope to receive myself and this indulgent body moisturizer is one of those products I always repurchase and use every single day. It’s perfect for winter and made a *huge* difference in the appearance of my skin leading up to my wedding. I’m truly obsessed. — save w/ myskinterest
For the game night enthusiast who always seems to have a winning hand, consider gifting a display worthy edition of their favorite game (this one is mine!).
