If you’re strapped for holiday gift ideas this year, I’m here to point you in the right direction. As a fashion editor for Who What What, I spend hours every day searching for the latest new trends and the coolest fashion buys across the internet. That means scrolling through Instagram to spot the most-worn pieces and finding the coolest versions of them at my favorite retailers. Even when I’m not at the office, I’m constantly making shopping recommendations to my family and friends.
Now that the holiday season has rolled around, it’s safe to say I have my eye on plenty of cool gift ideas—and ahead I’m breaking them down at every budget. Whether you plan on spending upward of $1000 or prefer to stay under $100, there’s a stylish option at your desired price point. Here, shop the best holiday gift ideas, which I’ve organized in sections from most to least expensive. Scroll to the end to see the $34 earrings I have in my shopping cart right now.
