Does anyone else have the Christmas music playing on full blast yet? I’m guilty as charged and have had Spotify Christmas on repeat since Thanksgiving eve. #NoShameInMyChristmasGame
Bring on holiday season!
I also have a gift for you … back by popular demand is my annual “favorite things” list where I share my Top 20 favorite things of the year!
So, you are in luck if …
- You want a little holiday shopping inspiration.
- You would you like to “nudge” your boo with some gift ideas that YOU would love to unwrap Christmas morning!
- The thought of coming up with creative gift ideas for your fave peeps stresses you out.
From creative stocking stuffers, to travel essentials, to larger “treat yourself” items … I got your back!
I channeled my inner Oprah and created this list just for you sharing my absolute fave things of 2019!
There are so many items I use every day that make my life so much sweeter, my travel so much easier, and my life all around happier.
So, I’ve put all my favorite 2019 game changers into a list just for YOU.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT work for these companies, sell these products, or get paid to promote/endorse them. This list is from the heart and all items I’m personally obsessed with.
In no order of preference, here are the 20 things I fell in love with this year:
- Fear Is My Homeboy! (retail $22.95) So, I had to start here because there’s no doubt about it: My newly released book would be the perfect stocking stuffer and look oh so cute under the tree for someone you love. Oh, and bonus, it’s on sale ($14.28) on Amazon! PS: You can also buy personalized + signed copies of my book for a Fear Boss you love. Email us at hello@judiholler.com to put in your order.
- O Magazine Subscription – ($12.00 Annually) This one stays on my list every year because there is nothing quite like getting happy magazine mail! I used to pick this up in the airports from time to time and always loved how I felt while reading it. Now, that dose of happy comes right to my mailbox every month. There is so much trash on TV, in the news, and in most magazines on the stands … it’s refreshing to read something that keeps it positive. What you put into your mind is what will come out … this is a badass way to keep it positive, on the regular!
- Tory Burch Ambition Bracelet – ($30.00) I got this from one of my besties for my birthday and am obsessed. I have it in 2 colors now. It’s so chic, a killer price point, and supports one of my favorite things … AMBITION: 100% of all net proceeds benefit the Tory Burch Foundation, which advances women’s empowerment and entrepreneurship.
- Slip Silk Pillowcase: ($75-90) I bumped into these while checking out at Nordstrom and was immediately intrigued because I’m always on the hunt for ways to keep my hair/skin in check. After a quick browse through their Instagram feed, I was sold. I even went on to buy a silk eye mask and the silk scrunchies.
- Feather Earrings by Big Imagination Design: ($35.00) You can visit her Etsy shop HERE or her Instagram HERE to learn even more. You can even take a quick browse through my Instagram and you’ll likely find a photo of me rocking these feathers pretty quick. I’m obsessed.
- Anything by Kristin Hannah! ($5.00-$15.00) I fee in love with this fiction author over her NYT Best Seller, The Nightingale and am now working through her entire collection. Everything she touches is gold. Her character development is magical and her stories of humanity, life, and love will rock you to your core.
- J Crew Jeans: ($89.50) Ok, so I guess the “Mom Jean” is back and if that’s the case, you might as well look amazing rocking them. These high-rise toothpick jeans are not only super flattering they are so comfy to wear! Tons of colors and styles to pick from too.
- Lana Jewelry Nude Chain Choker: ($495.00) I’ve become obsessed with this Chicago-based glam rock jewelry company! This choker is my first purchase and I now regularly drool over so many of her beautiful pieces.
- Pink Swatch: ($75.00) This 90’s girl loves all things Swatch, so when I found this magenta version of what was an iconic staple of my childhood … I was hooked. I get SO many compliments when I wear this and the magenta watch face just POPS!
- Hydra Facials: ($150.00) This has become what I call the monthly “oil change” for my face. It’s incredible and I pair it with a dermaplane for maximum results. And who wouldn’t love the gift of a monthly facial! One note, you usually can’t get these at a cozy “spa” … you’ll want to find a med spa / plastic surgeon’s office near you … this is where you’ll get the pro treatment. For my Ohio readers, I go to Beachwood Med Spa for all my treatments.
- Louis Vuitton Bumbag: ($1,570.00) Yes, the “fanny pack” is back and I’m HERE FOR IT. This has become a travel essential for me and is oh so fun to wear. I love how roomy it is and how it keeps my travel essentials safely on me.
- Dora Mae Jewelry: (various price points) Everything, literally EVERYTHING about this company is my obsession!! PLUS, the owner Ansley is so amazing … she’s giving all Fear Bosses 20% off at check out when you use the code: FEARBOSS
- Monogrammed Leopard Print Clutch: ($179.00) The Mark and Graham catalogue randomly came to my house, I flipped through, and found this magical clutch in the pages. Sold! I love a pop of leopard with almost everything and this clutch is my new staple when I go out on the town. PS – you’ll love this site, so many fun gift ideas!
- Ballet Rose Perfume by Philosophy: ($30.00 – $50.00) OMG. This perfume might top every single fancy perfume I’ve ever bought in my entire life. It’s SO GOOD. I not only use the perfume, I also LOVE the lotion and bubble bath too.
- Ink + Volt Planner: ($42.00) This might be the best thing you can buy yourself every single year to make sure your NEXT year is set up like a BOSS. This goal focused planner is my success secret weapon for the last 4 years!
- Tom Ford Candle: ($132.00) Explicit. Exclusive. And Fabulous. The perfect gift for someone who is hard to buy for + loves F-Bombs, candles, and glam.
- Louis Vuitton Monogrammed Denim Shawl: ($590.00) This juicy splurge item is the perfect way to glam up literally anything. It will keep you cozy on planes and is so effortlessly stylish.
- Reed Boot by Frye: ($398.00) If you need a new tall boot staple in your wardrobe this boot is perfection. The detail on the heel is gorgeous + this style also comes in black. They are not only beautiful to look at, they are comfy to wear!
- Scuffette II Ugg Slipper: ($85.00) I mean, wearing these are like walking on furry pillows. Plus, the fuchsia color gives me life. And bonus, they are on sale right now!
- A few of my favorite personal development Books: Last, but certainly not least … I believe reading is the gateway to greatness. Here are a few of my favorite reads this year that would also be FUN gifts to give:
Now … you’ve got some shopping to do!
Or better yet, pass this one on to someone you love with a “hint-hint” message.
While all this “stuff” is amazing and fun to give/get … what I truly wish for you this holiday season is the gift of even more health, love, and joy as you get ready to boss up on 2020 and the new DECADE ahead of us!!
Wishing you the happiest (and bravest) of holidays!
