These are a lot of my favorite shops, many of the small and Black owned or designed.
Custom is a good thing to get for the person who already is buying herself what she wants. I freaking love these cowboy boot custom notepads. Go with her favorite color and she’ll love for sure.
Kate McCleod lotion bars are such a self care gift. They are luxurious, come in a beautiful bamboo box and you basically give yourself a massage as you use it.
Melissa Koby’s collection at World Market is always so special. The mugs especially are so unique and have such a good weight to them. Grab this and her favorite coffee.
I am obsessed with Brandon Blackwood bags and dying for one. This little card case is perfect for the one you need a bigger gift for but you have no freaking clue what to grab.
Khoi jewelry is a Chicago brand that I love and have been lusting after. This bangle is such a statement but could work with so many looks. For a small jewelry brand, the pieces are stunning and still very affordable.
This by Ava full body lymphatic massager is on my list. All the different sides are designed to do face gua sha, scalp and body. I cannot wait to try this.
Every year, the Alice and Wonder holiday collection is full of goodies. So many pretty glasses and cozy sweatshirts. This bow shirt is so sweet and perfect for the holidays and beyond.
Diet Coke and democracy because she has her priorities straight (and this benefits an amazing team in Wisconsin advocating for progressive policies that protect parents in Wisconin).
Kesia Finley is an insanely talented artist and I love her flowers in bodega coffee cup series. They are all perfectly beautiful and quirky.
This Sezane necklace is so good and chunky. The clasp is beautiful too so I sometimes even wear backwards- I am guaranteed compliments with this on.
