You really don't need to get me anything. But if you insist...
❤️ I genuinely appreciate donation gifts! I've posted a list of favorite causes here, but do whatever you like. You can give me cash to donate through my employer to double the impact through our generous 100% match program.
🚫 Please no books, magazines, notebooks, calendars or other paper reading/writing material. You can gift me an Audible donation if you want to share a book. (Greeting cards don't count - it's delightful to receive a card in the mail!)
🟡 I have enough scarves, handbags, wallets, candles and socks to last a lifetime. It's not a hard no, if you find something you think I'll really like.
1) Food: Brings joy and leaves no clutter. Surprise me.
2) Spa Gift Card: Watercourse Way is my happy place. $60 buys a private sauna session on the weekend.
3) Other Gift Cards: Crate and Barrel, Pottery Barn, West Elm, Sephora, Ulta, Backcountry, REI, Sundance Catalog, Starbucks.
4) Digital Subscriptions: Outside, Audible.
5) Bar Soaps: From unique makers such as Soap Distillery.
6) Hand and Body Creams: Origins Ginger Souffle Body Cream, and L'Occitane hand creams - particularly Almond, Cherry Blossom or the Holiday Set. Body butters from the Body Shop.
7) Pura Scents: I love my Pura home diffuser and am always interested in trying new scents. Curious about the car diffuser.
8) Pottery Barn Mason Collection: Unique pieces from this collection are welcome - with a gift receipt in case I already have it.
9) Sweaty Betty Clothes/Accessories: Sweaty Betty is my go-to for running gear and loungewear. I usually wear XS on top and bottom. Pants must black or dark grey. Never pay full price!
10) Other Clothes: I'm picky, but go for it if you're feeling bold. I like ATM, James Perse, Joie and Velvet. Can't go wrong with black or charcoal grey, certain shades of teal and moss green, or ochre yellow. If you buy me anything with patterns, you don't know me. If you pay full price, I will be sad. I'm generally an XS in clothes and 7.5 in shoes, ranging from 7 to 8 depending on fit.
