HOLIDAY GIFTS: UNDER $50

Gifts Under $50

Today's blog post is all about our suggestions for those moderate budget holiday gifts. From sample box subscriptions to fashion bangles to home décor and even Disney-inspired items, this list is some of our favorite items.

BirchBox (girls or guys)

A box of goodies wrapped up all for you! Birchbox is a great gift for women or men (there are boxes designed for both) and you can pre-purchase it in subscription form. I purchased this as a gift once before, in a 3 month subscription, which was only $30 (up front) and my mom received a wonderful little box of presents for 3 months straight. Birchbox also features longer month subscriptions as well.

Ipsy Glam Bag

You may have to get a little creative with this one, but it is definitely worth it! While Ipsy does work as a monthly subscription, if you want to give someone you know a subscription but do not want to continue to pay for it, you can "gift" it as a 3 or 6 month subscription. All you have to do is create a profile (with the person receiving the gift in mind), open a monthly subscription and then simply cancel when you come to the end of the months that you chose. If the other person loves it, they can easily just pick up where you left off!

*The great thing about Ipsy is that they have a cancel at any time policy, although, in our opinion, it will definitely become something you won't want to cancel*

MAGNOLIA

Who doesn't love Joanna and Chip Gaines, right? We certainly do and we love everything about their home designs and retail lines. Their rustic-farm style combined with a modern flair, the Magnolia Market items are the perfect gifts for someone you know who loves home décor. Both of the items below are a sure way to show that you gave an extra thought for your holiday gift choices!

Francesca's

The perfect gift to bring to the host of a holiday party! Yes, while it is always nice to bring food or a bottle of wine to a party, it is also a good idea to bring a gift that can be used more then once. A decorative glass set or a cheese knife set are both great gift ideas for the party host. They're both items that can not only be used for that specific night of entertainment but more nights just like it in the future. It is a nice way to think outside the box!

Urban Outfitters

We.Love.Urban. The store that always seems to suit everyone's style. Urban Outfitters is a great stop to get the perfect gift that has a little something extra, don't you think?! (Yes, we still quote Elle Woods on a daily!) Our Urban suggestions listed below range from a copper stemless wine glass (set of 2) to a men's watch to a moon light. While we love these items, Urban has a ton more to offer in store or on their website!

kiehl's

This is the perfect gift for anyone who loves beauty or self-wellness products! Kiehl's, one of the highest rated and most adored skin and body care brands, is a great gift for someone you know on a more personal level. Anyone who knows the brand knows that it can tend to be a bit expensive (even though totally worth it) so both of the gift sets we have listed below are definitely a great value. What we love about Kiehl's, as well, is that if you shop in store, their teams are great at helping the customer curate a collection of products.

Alex & ani

The bracelets we all love! The fashion bangle with a meaning, a great gift for anyone's style. The great thing about this brand is that they have something for everyone and a lot of their bracelets are designed for a good cause. Alex & Ani partners up with a ton of charities and foundations, which allows proceeds to go to the respective organizations. Purchasing an Alex & Ani is not only a gift to you or someone else, but also a gift that gives back.

jack wills

The thing we love most about these items from Jack Wills is that all four items can work perfectly for both men and women. A scarf, a beanie, a washbag, and a makeup bag (which can totally transition to a small travel accessory). These items are also great because they stay in the primary color palette, so that you don't have to go crazy trying to match a gift with someone's style.

lost bros

Our final suggestion for our holiday gifts under $50 is for all the Disney lovers! Millennials have recently taken charge of reinventing the Walt Disney World wardrobe standard, with countless new brands popping up with innovative clothing and accessory items. One of our favorites is the Lost Bros who have created a line of Disney-inspired tees, along with pins, hats, and more cool stuff. The two tees we have listed below are two of our personal favorites.

*We also suggest checking out the rest of the Lost Bros online store, but also, specifically, their Drink Around The World collection - it's perfect for when going to the parks with big groups*
