Birthdays and weddings and bach’s - oh my! When you’d normally pop a bow on a bottle of Veuve - what do you get someone when they don’t drink?

I mean we alllll love a good TjMaxx candle- but it’s always chic to show up with something slightly more thoughtful + guaranteed to be a conversation starter.

ONE

Fresh Sends
Fresh Sends is “setting out to freshen-up the cookie cutter gifting industry” according to their site and we completely agree! With their insanely chic branding coupled with fab prices (roses delivered for $50 and lilies at $45) it’s a brilliant way to elevate the typical grocery store flower bouquet and make a lasting impression without digging too deep in your pockets. After all - a bottle of nice tequila would run you the same rate!

TWO

LEON BRIDGES BODY WASH
Salt + Stone partnered with Leon Bridges for a limited time collection and it’s the perfect goodie to bring to your friends housewarming. On their site, they describe this signature scent “ designed to create a sensorial experience that inspires creativity.” So, it’s perfect for the art or music loving friend. While fragrance can be tricky, something like a body wash/ hand wash is a great way to date a new scent. Plus, at $36 it’s a low investment to have your friend feel thought of and excited to shower. lol.

THREE

COFFEE TABLE BOOK
The Sporty & Rick Wellness Book - Volume 1 just dropped and is described on their site at “240 pages of interviews, articles and essays on health, skin, nutrition, fitness and more.”
Setting at a even $100 - this baddie is the perfect higher end gift for your beauty/wellness focused friend. Even if this particular selection doesn’t fit your friend, a coffee table book truly is one of my favorite gifts to give and receive. From food to fashion, there’s a book for everything. The Strategist/New York Magazine wrote a phenomenal guide to the 48 Most Giftable Coffee-Table Books — take a peak and find what’s best for your friend.

FOUR

NON
We are OBSESSED with NON. While you can totally show up with a single bottle, the Everyday Set is a guaranteed party starter. It’s a very chic upgrade for a BYOB event & with flavors so complex, everyone will want to taste and discuss.
Here’s what’s in the set:
NON 1 SALTED RASPBERRY & CHAMOMILE
NON 3 TOASTED CINNAMON & YUZU 
NON 7 STEWED CHERRY & COFFEE

If you do want to roll up with a single bottle, my favorite is NON 7 - stewed Cherry and Coffee. It’s great for a dinner party to pop open at the table or for the host to store for another evening.

FIVE

WE’RE NOT REALLY STRANGERS
The Friendship Edition from We’re Not Really Strangers is a great bring to any kind of intimate celebration. Here’s what to expect according to their site :

“With three carefully crafted levels of questions and wildcards, the Friendship Edition is for you and your friends to deepen your existing connections. If you don’t think you and your friends can get any closer, then this card game is for you!!”

It’s giving girls night in, energy.
