50 Holiday Gifts I Love + Top Black Friday Sales | The Home Items I Love

This year, I wanted to share a Black Friday guide full of items that I’ve personally used that way I can tell you how incredible they are.  I bought this clipboard pad folio last year to use for sorority advising; it has pockets inside and makes it easy for me to keep track of everything.

If you’re looking for stocking stuffer ideas, the microfiber cloths are perfect for the new homeowner or cleaning lover & satin pillowcases help prevent hair breakage, are good for your skin, and prevent you from waking up with crease lines on your face.

My Kendra Scott Elisa necklace is something I wear almost everyday while the Naomi ring is great for special occasions and even date nights. The All in One Crossbody has both a wristlet and crossbody strap that makes it perfect for running errands when you need to be hands free.

And of course, I can’t say enough good things about the SPANX faux leather leggings; they’re comfortable with enough stretch for you to be comfortable but don’t lose their shape.  I just ordered this pair of moto leggings since they’re 20% off.

50 Holiday Gifts I Love + Top Black Friday Sales | Popular Beauty Gifts

I’ve raved about most {if not all} of these items before so quick run down!  The Born to Run palette has 21 shades that allow you to create just about any look and has a HUGE mirror; lately, I’ve been loving the Naked Cherry palette too.  This one has a warm, romantic color story that’s pretty for fall and holiday looks.  {Planning on using this a ton around Valentine’s Day too!}  Naked Cherry comes with a double sided brush making it a great “starter palette” too if you’re just getting into makeup.  If you’re only going to get one palette: get Born to Run.

The Hi-Fi Shine lip glosses are SO comfortable to wear.  I typically reach for mattes but when I’m looking to switch things up and avoid anything too drying, I’ll put this gloss on over a liner.

50 Holiday Gifts I Love + Top Black Friday Sales | For the Tech and Travel Lovers!

I’ve had my Vera Bradley luggage for years now; I’m always able to quickly pick it out and it’s held up so well.  The curling iron cover is a must have if you ever do your hair before running out the door {hahaha me!} and the travel blanket is a AMAZING.  I have three of the regular fleece blankets in different rooms in my house, but this one is nifty because it folds down and has a sleeve to slip over the handle of your rolling luggage.  You can use it as a pillow or blanket that covers your whole body and yet it still is small enough to carry in your hands or stuff in a backpack.

I shoot all of my blog photos with a tripod and get a lot of questions about it; if you’re wanting to try out a tripod, I have and love this one for iPhones.  In the very beginning, I shot all my photos with my phone, but it’s still handy if I’m out and about or want to quickly snag a photo of the fam without asking anyone to take one.

    Oh my goodness, there are so many unique, practical gifts on here! One of the best gifts I ever received was a Vera Bradley hot tool cover. I love that it made it on to your list 🙂 I am definitely buying a pair of those corgi slippers!
