Now that the turkey and stuffing have been consumed, our attention can turn toward other delicacies. Namely, those that can adorn, bedeck and embellish the women in your life. If you need some inspiration and help along the way, I’ve curated some of the best items out there that are sure to surprise and wow your wife, mother, sister or friend. Happy hunting!

REFORMATION SKIRT

The perfect skirt for her to pair with a lacy cami and stilettos or a chunky sweater and boots.

HEMLINE SLIT MAXI SKIRT

PUFF SLEEVE CROPPED TOP

The perfect outfit for her next beach vacation getaway.

SEQUINNED MIDI SKIRT

Would look great paired with a graphic tee, a chunky gold chain necklace, and a strappy sandal or a a simple black pump.

ZEBRA PRINT MIDI SKIRT

I’m not a huge fan of animal prints but this skirt looks more like an abstract print than zebra. Simple black and white should never be underestimated for its statement making power. For a lady-like outfit pair it with a black puffed sleeve blouse like above and for a more cool-girl vibe throw on a simple white tee but pair it with these hot pink heels.

LEOPARD PRINT MAXI DRESS

Now that I’ve told you I’m not a huge fan of animal prints, this dress comes along to make a liar out of me! The rich brown tones against the black harmonize to make this dress function as a neutral–I promise. Would look amazing with a fur coat throw over your shoulders or a straw bag on your arm.

BUCKET BAG

This bag is the perfect warm, nut-brown color that will only get better with age and will go with any outfit. Would also make a very stylish alternative to the traditional tote bag.

SHELL BAG

This bag would look so cute with any New Year’s Eve outfit and will keep working right onto the next beach vacation she’s going on.

MADEMOISELLE HANDBAG

The name says it all. This handbag is all about femininity but the bright yellow adds just the right amount of edge.

PARAVEL CLEAR COSMETIC BAG

PORTABLE CHARGING BRACELET

This bracelet is stylish enough to wear or you can easily loop it around your handbag/backpack/belt loop–you get the idea. Just plug one end into your phone and the other into a USB port and start charging.

OAK TABLE GRATER

Next time she throws an a pasta dinner party she will thank you. Beautiful enough to keep on the dining table.

INSTANT UPLIFT WAND

Who doesn’t want instantly firmer skin? The Nurse Jamie Instant UpLift allows you to painlessly sculpt a firmer facial contour in a few short minutes and it also helps your serums to penetrate more deeply. So, overtime not only do you look sculpted but the texture of your skin improves as well.
