While it’s easy to get caught up in buying knick-knacks and novelty gifts that’ll end up at the bottom of a drawer, why not surprise them with gifts they’ll actually use this holiday season?
From accessories to stationery, we’ve complied a list of useful treasures they’ll love to discover in their stocking this year…
The scrunchie trend is still going strong—and there’s good reason why. Not only is it a super-cute hair accessory (especially in this grey polka-dotted pattern), but it’s also soft and thick, making it gentle on your mane. It’s a quick and easy way to tie up your hair in a messy bun or ponytail and head out the door for a winter stroll.Shop online
Nothing feels better than checking off that to-do list—except for checking off that to-do list with a gorgeous pen. Whether they’d prefer the gem style or the glitter barrel, each is the perfect accessory for jotting down notes or just adding a touch of glam on your desk.Shop the diamond and glitter pen online
Why not match a pretty pen with this lovely little notepad? Containing 50 lined sheets— providing plenty of room to check off everything from work tasks to party plans and shopping lists—this winter floral notepad is just as stylish as it is useful. Shop online
This three-pack of chic and functional hair clips comes in two options: pink and pearl, or classic tortoise shell. Designed for thick or thin hair, they will secure hair no matter the style. These make the perfect stocking stuffer for anyone who likes to have fun with accessories.Shop pink pearl and tortoise hair clips online
For anyone who loves to travel (maybe they have a winter getaway planned?), this cotton canvas bag features a gold panel to make it stand out from the pack.
