Get Jessed Up's Holiday Gift Guide!

Hip, hip hooray!

Somehow, it's already December, and you know what that means: the holidays are upon us! If you're anything like me, you stress to the max about what to get people for the holidays. You want the gift to be thoughtful, represent an inside joke you have with someone, something meaningful, something witty, something perfect.

Fear no more, my gift-giving gals! I've compiled a list of some of my favorite things that would be a perfect gift for any loved one in your life. My gift ideas range in price, so if you're able to splurge or if you're a beauty on a budget, I've got gifts for all of you.

...And one last thing before you see my suggestions. Sometimes gifting things to yourself is just as fun as gifting to others. Just saying.





1.


Just think of all the possible concoctions you could put into a watermelon (or 
a pumpkin, if you're feeling the holiday spirit)! A great gift for the friend who
is impossible to shop for.

2. 



If you have a man in your life who has it all, this is the perfect gift!
Your man will receive a sealed crate and his own crowbar for opening it. I
AM MAN! HEAR ME ROAR AND WATCH ME OPEN A CRATE!
On the inside: bacon everything. Bacon sunflower seeds, bacon popcorn, bacon
jerky, bacon salt... are you seeing how perfect this gift is, yet?

3.



Pillowcase Sets, O Susannah, $39.00

I'm a pillow girl. My couches are covered in pillows, and my bed
is no different. These cute couples' pillows add a little something extra
to your bedroom decor. I love how these cheeky pillowcases show 
off your sense of humor!

4. 



Customizable, individual, & snazzy as shit. You'll win best gift-giver of 
the year with these retro-inspired rides! Whether you're running out to grab a coffee, 
running errands, or just want to ride around and explore your 'hood, 
these step-through cycles will help you explore your city in style.

**Stay tuned for more of my love of Pure City Cycles!**

5.


Because making s'mores in the microwave was so last year.

6. 



Man jewelry can be tricky. I'm not a huge fan of men blinging
out more than I do... so these are a great, masculine alternative. They're
minimal, colorful, and give off an outdoorsy vibe that I definitely dig. For
the lumbersexual man in your life: wa-la! Gift search complete!

7. 


You guys. What needs to be said? DEEP. FRIED. EVERYTHING.
Pickles. Oreos. Fries. Chicken. Brownies. ANYTHING.
Gift this = you're always invited to the party.

8. 



The perfect gift for anyone at any age. Everyone listens to music,
so why not give someone the gift of listening in style! 
Let me sum this up:
gold earbuds > any other earbuds.


So, what do you think of those gift ideas? Do tell if you have other perfect present suggestions!

Remember... keep an eye out for my next blog post. It's a Get Jessed Up Giveaway you won't want to miss! 

Until next time,

Things I Desperately Want But Don't Need

Story of my life. Anyway, these are all the random things I've stumbled upon in my shopping and internet browsing adventures. Thought I'd share in the event that you might want the same things, or in case you were looking for a random gift for someone. You're welcome.

Because everyone needs a burger bean bag chair. Urban Outfitters, $98

Sometimes, I need a mullet on the go. This would come in handy during those times.
Urban Outfitters, $10

I have a very big sweet tooth. Urban Outfitters,  $25

Stone drink dispensers are awesome, which is why I want one. Uncommon Goods, $125

Because it's cool. I have no where to put it in my apartment but I'd find a place.
Uncommon Goods, $3,700

Mustachifiers. Genius. I don't have kids but I definitely need these in advance. I call it
being prepared and thinking ahead. Uncommon Goods, $10

This shower gel dispenser is hysterical. It's evident I haven't grown up yet.
Perpetual Kid, $18.99

Holiday Wish List!



As the holiday season quickly approaches and the winter chill sets in, I get a warm and fuzzy feeling inside. (Mostly from reading the new catalogs I receive from Loft, Urban Outfitters, J.Crew and Anthropologie, and....) But also- a little warmth from hot cocoa and the red winter holiday cups at Starbucks. But I digress.

In honor of the holidays, I began my winter wish list last night.

Let's be real. The things on this list will not magically appear in my closet/life this holiday season/tomorrow/immediately as I'd like them to.

But alas, a girl can dream.

That's why it's called a wish list. So, here's to wishful thinking...

Neon Purple and Yellow Necklace, Spike the Punch, $36

Glitter iPhone Case, J. Crew, $25
Cicely Velvet High Heel Pump, Tory Burch, $350

And while we're on the topic of Tory Burch, I sweat this bag.

Bombe Burch Tote, Tory Burch, $450

Adrienne All Lace Dress, Betsey Johnson, $398


Beaded Felt Pencil Skirt, Anthropologie, $298

Dara Ettinger Felicia Post Earring, Urban Outfitters, $75

Another pair of earrings that are just gorgeous..
Black Diamond Teardrop Earrings, Loft, $24.50

So, what's on your holiday wish list this year?
