2018 Women's Holiday Gift Guide + Mega Giveaway!!

I am so excited to share my 2018 Women's Holiday Gift Guide with you! These are all products that I personally use and recommend. I have been a fan of most of them for many years and some of them are products that I use every single day and would totally gift people!

**Keep reading for a MEGA giveaway for a $100 PACT Clothing gift card, a 2-pack of Kyocera ceramic knives, two 7 Charming Sisters Necklaces (Juried Jewels necklaces) and an 18 x 12 inch canvas from Canvas Factory!!

prAna Clothing

I have been a fan of prAna clothing for about 7 years now because their items are great quality and stylish. The items from them that are older are still in great condition. I have to say that these two items from prAna are my absolute favorite that I've had. The permafrost half zip is incredible and I want one in every color.

I have worn it 4 days in a row so far...I can't stop! So, if you know me in real and keep seeing me in this, sorry! It is line with a soft cotton material and is actually warm. Some fuzzy jackets like this look warm but are very thin and this one is truly warm and cozy. This khaki rose color is amazing.


prAna clothing is made with organic cotton and recycled fabrics. They aim to help the planet and are a sustainable brand. To get 15% off your prAna order, use code WPAHF18.

Contigo Coffee Mugs and Water Bottles

I've been writing about Contigo products for so many years now and literally always have one or two by my side. Every single day, I drink my coffee out of a Contigo mug which keeps my coffee hot for hours and my kids and I drink out of Contigo water bottles all day long. They are my favorite! We typically buy a few every year. We love the kid ones as well.

Brickyard Buffalo Clothing

Brickyard Buffalo is an online pop-up market that showcases individual companies and the items change quickly so if you want something, get it now! I love a lot of their items including these camo joggers which are super cozy for hanging out at home, this cardigan in black which can be worn over most items for a little extra warmth and style, this ruffle top which is fun and not like anything I own and this velvet sweatshirt for cozy days.


My "uniform" has changed a bit since working from home but I still like to wear clothes that I think are cute and make me feel good. They have tons of fun items for holiday gifts.


7 Charming Sisters Jewelry

I have lots of jewelry from 7 Charming Sisters and am always impressed by the quality of the jewelry and how beautiful it is in person. I love the Conquer the World necklace which I think would be great for a fancy New Year's Eve outing, the Starstruck earrings for daily wear and the Leave Her Mark earrings for going out. They offer nearly every style of jewelry at affordable prices so if you don't know the exact style that someone in your life likes, I recommend getting them a gift card so that they can choose what they like.

PACT Clothing

I am a longtime fan of PACT clothing, especially their leggings. I have pairs that are at least 3-4 years old that are still in perfect condition! They are high quality yet affordable. My favorite part about them compared to other brands is that they had a thick, flat waistband that stays on nicely while not being too tight on your stomach. Watch for sales as they often are $15 and I've heard can go as low as $10 on a big sale! I also am a big fan of their sweatshirts which are so soft and cozy. 


Kyocera Ceramic Knives

Kyocera ceramic knives are literally the best ever! I use these for 90% of my cutting and I chop, dice and slice food all day long. I have used them for years and they stay sharp and cut through food easier than any other knife on the market. The only thing that I don't use them for is super hard foods such as a raw butternut squash or to trim meat. I highly recommend the 5.5" Santoku knife and the 4.5 inch utility knife. Having about 2 of each of these is literally all I need (except for one other knife 10% of the time) and they come in so many fun colors too.


Liverpool Jeans

I love a good pair of jeans and have a hard time finding some that stay on (I have almost no hips) and ones that don't stretch out and get too baggy through the day. I saw Liverpool Jeans recommended by another blogging friend and she swore by them. I decided to try some out and fell in love! They are super soft (unusually so for jeans) and fit really well. I chose the pull-on jeans because I thought that that may be my best bet for staying on since they have an elastic waist. I chose the Sienna pull-on legging in meteorite and san andreas. My husband also got a couple pairs and he loves them as well. Highly recommend!!


Kohv Sunglasses

Troy and I wear sunglasses pretty much daily when we go out and like stashing a few pairs in our car. I love these sunglasses by Kohv because they are stylish, affordable and unisex. When we can only find one pair in our car or something, it's great because either of us can easily wear them. My favorite are the Veerie and Ash styles. They are about $20 for a pair and would be great stocking stuffers!

Shutterfly Photo Gifts

I love giving photo gifts because they are always well loved! They are easy to make on Shutterfly and turn out amazing. I love the canvases, photo prints, mugs, candles, blankets and most of all, the calendars. I love making a yearly calendar for Grandparents of the kids and they love it. The prices are affordable (always look for a sale or coupon code too).

PatPat Mommy and Me Dresses

I'm freaking out because I LOVE to match my daughter! PatPat has so many choices of different Mommy and Me dresses! I'm loving floral right now so I went with these adorable dresses. They do seem to run big I would say so possibly consider ordering a size down.


I love the vintage floral printed dress as we love to dress up for church, holidays and other occasions. These make an amazing gift for a Mom and daughter pair! Use this coupon code to save on your purchase: Nutrition12.


Azaria Backpack

I have been wanting a backpack because I hate carrying a purse (aside from a little crossbody purse) and am obsessed with these backpacks. I've been wearing this backpack everywhere and love it. It is high quality and holds all of our gear. It is also a diaper bag but you can use it for travel, a day out or for a diaper bag. It is stylish yet sturdy and can hold everything you need. I store my camera, water bottle, wallet and snacks in here.

Panty Drop Underwear Subscription

Every year, Troy gets me underwear in my stocking. Now before you go thinking it's all sexy, they are pretty big cotton undies- nothing skimpy or lacy lol!! I think that these underwear from Panty Drop would be perfect for a holiday gift for the loved one in your life. You can choose their cut of underwear- bikini, boy short, etc. and choose the style such as lacy or sporty. The underwear are all different brands and come every 3 months. You get 3 pairs each 3 month period and come in sizes XS to 6X. 

Stitch Fix

Everyone has talked about Stitch Fix and I wanted to try it for myself. Stitch Fix is a clothing subscription service where you fill out a profile and a stylist chooses clothes, accessories and shoes for you based on what you fill out. You can fill out different things that you are looking for such as a holiday dress or boots and you put what kind of styles you like. You can put if you like sporty styles, glam, casual, etc. Stitch Fix will then send you a box of clothes and you have 3 days to try everything on and decide what you want to keep. 

I had fun trying it out but for the most part, I would stick to choosing clothes myself because they were a bit expensive for my taste. I think that it would make a really fun gift though!

TomboyX Pajamas

I am loving these rainbow pajama pants from TomboyX which makes unisex underwear, pajamas and more. I love them because they are stretchy and lightweight and of course, super colorful! I am not a fan of super heavy pajamas as I get hot at night. My husband and I both really like the underwear from TomboyX as well. I like the bikini ones and he likes the briefs. They are great quality and come in a variety of fun colors!

Canvas Factory Canvases

I am a huge fan of canvases and think that they make an amazing gift! I ordered several for family to gift through the holiday season. The canvases from Canvas Factory are good quality and ship quickly. I love taking quality photos of my kids and getting them printed on a canvas.

Giveaway

The giveaway will be for a $100 PACT Clothing gift card, a 2-pack of Kyocera ceramic knives, 2-7 Charming Sisters Necklaces (Juried Jewels necklaces) and an 18 x 12 inch canvas from Canvas Factory.
