The holiday season is in full swing. To keep my impulse spending in check, I started keeping a long, running list of things I find intriguing that I’d love to have. I call it guilt-free shopping because the dopamine hit I get from organizing my favorite products almost trumps hitting purchase—that is if I stick with it long enough. Most of the items on this list have come from this process.
Whether you’re browsing for gift ideas or perusing just for fun, I hope you find something that catches your eye. Here’s my personal holiday wish list for 2024. Find more gift ideas in my annual holiday gift guide!
My 2024 Holiday Wish List
$150 for a set of 4
I’m not drinking these days, so when I pour a nonalcoholic bevy, I like to do so in a fancy glass. These glasses have been on my wish list for a while now. I love Sophie Lou’s work.
$349 – $499
Since reading Good Energy, my interest in wearable technology has been piqued.
$40
Games shake off the monotony of the familiar and bring people closer together—especially if it’s a game created by relationship expert Esther Perel.
$395
I love the burgundy color, style, and oversized fit of this faux leather jacket.
$350
I’ve been eyeing this piece for some time now. We don’t like using overhead lights in our home, and this lamp would give off a really great glow.
$40
I was lucky enough to have this blush sent to me as a gift and it’s 10/10. It gives that flushed look of having walked in -10-degree temps with just a tiny tap of your ring finger. I would love to have it in another shade!
$84
This beanie is just so cute. It’s available in lots of colors—I love the bright red.
$327 on sale for $178
We made some updates to our living room, and I have my eye on these ottomans to create extra seating that doesn’t add too much bulk to the space.
$575
Statement shoes I can’t stop thinking about.
$30 for a set of 2
I love the shape and weight of these candlesticks. They’re going to be discontinued soon, so grab them while you can!
Prices vary
I’m hunting for very specific art pieces for parts of our house and look at Tappan often to see if new arrivals fit the bill. Marleigh Culver’s work has evolved beautifully over the years. Bringing one of her pieces into my home is at the tippy top of my wish list.
$64
A delightful vessel for one of my favorite delights in life: fragrance.
$150
Curling up on the couch with one (or both) of my kids is the highlight of my day. We’ve collected heirloom wool blankets over the years but it’s nice not to worry about the extra care that goes into washing well-loved blankets, especially during these messy childhood years. We have one ChappyWrap that has quickly become our go-to favorite, and I’d love one more to add to our rotation.
$129
I’ve written about the Antonio Melani x Elizabeth Damrich collection before (these gloves were on our gift guide) and I love this bright red wrap. I’m still thinking about this top to pair with these pants. Also, this dress!
