If you’re looking for someone who has it all, you can’t go wrong with a comforting light. This Nest classic candle has an elevated appearance thanks to its beautiful glass jar that has gold and purple stripes. The single candle releases cozy notes of plum, wood and patchouli that are perfect for both autumn and winter. Trust us, they will bring this light out year after year.

This Amazon Echo Show is a smart home gadget I refuse to live without. I love that it works as a speaker, security camera and weather forecast. You can connect it to other smart devices and control them via voice command. Plus, the Echo Show answers all my questions like, “Alexa, what time does the sun go down again?”

Vera Wang Eau de Parfum

This classic Vera Wang perfume embodies elegance with its beautiful bottle and timeless scent. The subtle, fresh perfume delivers notes of sandalwood, lilies and citrus that smell so lovely. My mom has this Vera Wang Princess perfumeso maybe it’s time to get her another option for the collection.

Kate Spade Knott Medium Crossbody Tote

Whether you’re gifting a loved one or treating yourself, this Kate Spade bag should be on your radar. The luxurious tote bag has a sleek look, yet can hold your entire life inside. It has three compartments to organize your notebooks, phone, wallet, AirPods and keys. One detail that caught my eye is the strap; it has two straps for hand carrying as well as an adjustable shoulder strap for carrying it crossbody, essentially giving you two bags in one.

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite

I never leave home without a book, but thick novels make me reconsider lugging them around. This is where this is Kindle Paperwhite comes in. The e-reader is lightweight, has a large 7-inch screen and holds an entire library of books in just one place. How many books do you wonder? More than 4 million!

You could say I’m a big fan of Tatcha’s Water cream moisturizer; it’s light, moisturizing and smells lovely. So when I saw that, this came in Preparatory care set along with the brand’s cleanser and tonic, I almost gasped. It’s the perfect gift for the beauty lover in your life, giving them the full Tatcha experience without the exorbitant price tag.

Cozy Earth Stretch-Knit short-sleeved bamboo pajama set

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t sleep in these Cozy earth pyjamas yesterday evening. The cute knit set feels buttery soft, is breathable and has a good weight, which I appreciate. I’m also obsessed with the classic pajama design, which has a collar, buttons and white trim for a sophisticated look.

Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones

Sony’s wireless headphones has a noise canceling feature that completely changed the way I listen to music. In noise canceling mode, it’s like the world melts away and all I hear is crisp, clean sound from my favorite songs. The headphones even highlight song notes I didn’t know existed, giving me a totally immersive experience. It has long battery life, comfortable ear cups and a compact design that lets me carry it in my purse.
