HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE: THE PERFECT TREAT YO SELF GIFTS

You guys! I love this holiday time of year!  Work (sort of?) starts to slow down, there are more gatherings and events, and my favorite part of all–the gift giving!  I love giving gifts and hunting for things that someone will really love so I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled this past month.   And I especially love giving the gifts that are “wants” instead of “needs” because after a wild and crazy year, it’s time to treat yo self and others to enjoy the season.

I recently took a trip to Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco to pick up a few delicious chocolate-based gifts as part of my shopping this year.  I love how festive the entire area is decorated and it really kicked off the season for me.  And of course, you can’t not stop for a peppermint hot chocolate with amazing San Francisco bay views?  I picked up a handful of chocolate gifts to include in my Holiday Treat Yo Self gifts this year alongside some very cozy gifts.  Keep reading below to see all of the items I’m gifting this year!

13 Treat Yo Self Gifts You’ll Love

  1. GHIRARDELLI CLASSIC HOLIDAY GIFT BOX: When it comes to holiday, I love the classic gift box and big red bow.  This gift box contains an assortment of 24 milk and dark chocolate squares and is a great idea for a gift to keep on hand for unexpected gift giving that really wows!
  2. FAUX FUR SLIPPERS: I’ve very recently jumped on the fuzzy slippers bandwagon (two pairs within two weeks!) and think these are the ultimate way to indulge into a cozy winter wonderland.  These come in four different color options too! Perhaps wrap yourself in this blanket scarf too?
  3. GHIRARDELLI SIGNATURE CLASSIC GIFT BOX: Want to play down the holiday colors for something more classic? Opt for this signature gift box featuring delicious chocolate squares and perfect to share with coworkers!
  4. FRAGRANCE DIFFUSER: I feel like fragrance is one of those luxury gifts that people really appreciate, and it’s especially nice to tie a scent to a certain period of time or memory.  Give the gift of beautiful scent and every time someone smells it, it will invoke their special memory.
  5. SCENTED CANDLE: And on the fragrance theme, these Diptyque scented candles are an amazing treat to give and receive.  I admittedly have never burned my roses candle I have, but it puts off a beautiful scent and is so pretty to look at on my nightstand.
  6. GILDED COFFEE CUPS: Fancy a Ghirardelli peppermint hot cocoa at home? These gilded coffee cups would be a great gift for your coffee-lover BFF or mom’s afternoon tea!
  7.  GHIRARDELLI PEPPERMINT BARK SQUARES KEEPSAKE TIN: This tin says holiday all over it!  My family loves Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark and this little tin is a cute way to add holiday cheer to the countertop or next to the coffee pot.  Maybe slip one of these squares into your hot cocoa and let it melt in? Mmmm!
  8. HOODED CASHMERE ROBE: I’m a sucker for cashmere, it’s a beautiful luxury perfect for a ‘treat yo self’ holiday gift–whether you’re shopping for yourself or others.  Opt for the longer robe length for extra cozy!
  9. SIGNATURE NAVY GIFT BOX: This 10-piece squares gift box is packed with milk and dark caramel–my favorites! This is the perfect “just because” holiday gift or stocking stuffer!  I’m keeping a couple of these handy in my bag to sweeten my friends’ days this holiday season.
  10. POM POM THROW BLANKET: December and the holidays need a throw blanket in the mix and this one comes in five different colors!
  11. FAUX FUR ROBE: Want something a bit more fuzzy and furry to wrap yourself in? This faux fur trimmed robe will make your gift recipient feel like a queen!
  12. POM POM THROW PILLOW: Honey, put your feet up and enjoy ‘you time’.  Can you tell I’m loving pom poms this season?!
  13. GHIRARDELLI MILK AND CARAMEL HOLIDAY GIFT CYLINDER: The perfect sweet treat for the caramel lover in your life (…me? wink wink), and I love this unique gift packaging!

And to sweeten the deal on your holiday shopping even more, I’ve got an amazing Ghirardelli deal for all of your sweet, sweet gift shopping!  Show this post at any Ghirardelli Ice Cream and Chocolate Shop and receive 20% off your entire purchase.

    I would love some new slippers. My feet are always cold, so a new pair would be nice.

    I love this! We always go all out for everyone else, but sometimes it’s nice to give ourselves a little something, too.

    By the time Christmas rolls around, I am so burnt out I end up buying myself something just as a pick me up. I think this year it is going to be that faux fur robe. That looks so comfortable!

I think about this ALL. THE. TIME. ✨ I think about this ALL. THE. TIME. ✨
✨ Harrison Finnley Michaels 12/8/2019 ✨ Three ✨ Harrison Finnley Michaels 12/8/2019 ✨
Three months with this little guy and our worlds are rocked. He’s gone from just opening his eyes to rolling over, pushing himself up, grabbing at toys (and my phone as I type this out). He loves to laugh and talk in his baby language all day long 🤣 and sleeps all through the night 🙌🏼 How did we get so blessed with him?! @kmichaels216
Wedding Bells 💍 We are finally diving into some Wedding Bells 💍
We are finally diving into some wedding planning after our engagement last year and not going to lie, it’s overwhelming! We are super laid back and are looking for something small to celebrate. For me, this day isn’t about a big, fancy dress, or hundreds of guests to entertain. It’s about spending time with Kevin and I together committing our lives to one another. I was recommended to check out @shutterfly’s The Wedding Shop and mocked up an invite in this beautiful botanical print perfectly personalized to us and our style. Love our custom candle (smells so good!) and champagne flutes too! Check out my stories for more behind the scenes of unpacking our wedding items and some close ups! #MyShutterfly (ad)
CATCHING UP, what do you have going on this week? CATCHING UP, what do you have going on this week?
• This morning I had an eye exam to check my contacts / glasses Rx. I shared new glasses on Stories but turns out the Rx was wrong in them. I’m TRYING to wear my glasses more around the house and splurged on a pair from @ysl hoping that would help me do it 🤣🤓
• I haven’t been a big concealer wearer but I’ve been testing out the @urbandecaycosmetics naked concealer and have been liking how light it feels on my skin (I’m wearing it here, dress is new from @urbanoutfitters!)
• A work-related project this week—I’m trying to get my inbox of 700 emails down to zero. My problem is that I’ll get an email with some great piece of info in it and think “oh this is great! I can’t work on this right now but I’ll save for when I can” and I mark it unread. Well over time that has added up to 700 😬 I’m thinking of tackling it by sorting through and noting down whatever idea it is in my notebook (paper planner for LIFE! 📒) to reference it and have them all in one place. Maybe this will work!
• I’m currently sitting here watching this little baby sleep and the whole “I want to eat this baby” thing is SO REAL. What is it about babies where it makes us say that?!? He loves his @bibs_usa and @mushie_co!
• I’m considering cutting 3-4 inches from my hair....but here’s the kicker...I have this weird urge to DO IT MYSELF. Maybe I don’t want to put it off until I can get an appointment but I just want to cut it now. Please you guys, talk me out of doing this with scissors in the bathroom 🤣✂️
• Kevin and I have been binge watching @abcscandal and it’s SO ADDICTING. If you haven’t watched it, join us on Netflix but don’t blame me when you’re 2 episodes past your bedtime 😜 we are currently on season 4 of 7!
• WHAT ARE YOU UP TO THIS WEEK???
NEW MOM FASHION AND BEAUTY HACKS: 💁🏼‍♀️
1️⃣ Style your hair once ride that beautiful hair through the week with minimal effort. I use the @t3micro curling wand on day 1 fresh hair to put a little curl in it. On days 2-4 I use dry shampoo—my favorite is @livingproofinc to soak up oil, and then on days 5+ when dry shampoo doesn’t cut it anymore I throw on a cute beanie
2️⃣ Still trying to “bounce back” (whatever that means...) after baby? Same mama, same. @spanx leather-look leggings suck it all in and help as a postpartum support during healing. Win win!
3️⃣ Duster coats are the ONLY thing I want to wear. Not only do they keep you cozy as we wait for spring, but having pockets is NECESSARY for me. Phone in one, pacifier in another, and whatever other random things I need to bring with me when my arms are full with a baby
4️⃣ Lots of undereye concealer for that 8 hours of sleep look. @tartecosmetics shape tape is a favorite but I’ve been testing out @urbandecaycosmetics stay naked concealer and really like it for more natural coverage
MAMAS, WEIGH IN: What are you mom fashion and beauty hacks?! #newmomhacks
Our morning walk ritual ☺️ It’s still been a Our morning walk ritual ☺️
It’s still been a bit chilly out in the mornings but that doesn’t stop us from bundling up (in matching hats no less!) and going for a walk around our neighborhood. Baby carrying is a wonderful thing once you get the hang of it! I love how it gives you a bit of a workout with the added weight of a baby (Harrison is 11lbs now!) and gives them a chance to look around with a different view than the stroller. I can’t wait until he’s big enough to be front facing and then he can really look out at the world. I’ve been using the @nuna_usa @potterybarnkids CUDL carrier (this fabric is the broken arrow caviar) and my favorite feature are the magnetic clips that automatically snap into place to hold baby snugly. #lovemypbk
