They make the perfect fashion accessory for anyone who could use a little foot hug on long work days.

Hoop earrings are always a good idea. These come in gold, rose gold and silver options and in various sizes. All sizes are 5 millimeters thick with 14-karat gold plating (the silver pair is white gold-plated), but they’re hollow, so they’re super light and wearable.

You easily can slip them in a small purse or makeup bag, making them travel-friendly and perfect for people who are always on the go.
9
A pair of fleece-lined slipper socks

10

11
Neoism motion sickness glasses
Cute? Debatable. Endearing? Absolutely. Effective? Wildly so. For as long as I can remember, I have gotten car sick. My colleague Tessa Flores and I swear by these motion sickness glasses. The flexible frames of these spectacles are made up of four circles filled halfway with a blue liquid that, when worn, can only be seen in your peripheral vision. According to the maker, this design promises nothing less than complete sickness relief, even when reading or looking at your phone in the car –– something completely unheard of for motion sickness sufferers. I'm telling everyone they're the latest Schiaparelli.
12
Revlon One-Step hair dryer and styler
This handy tool is shaped like a regular handheld paddle brush and it has detangling bristles that smooth, dry and style your hair all in one sweep. The cord has a swivel design so it moves with you as you work around your head. It has three heat settings (low, cool and high), and as a frequent user, I can vouch for using it on the highest setting.
13

Before You Go

These Are The Gifts Our Editors Are Actually Buying
Clixo magnetic building set(01 of22)
Open Image Modal
“My kids actually received these magnetic building pieces as a gift recently, but I am definitely buying more both for my own family and our nieces and nephews this holiday. The ingenious, flexible plastic pieces connect with strong magnets (that make a satisfying clicking sound when they connect) and can be built into endless configurations, as you can see from this image. There's a really fun inspiration gallery on the brand’s website, but what my daughters have already come up with on their own is pretty inspiring.” — Emily Ruane, shopping managing editor (credit:Amazon)
Estelle colored glass stem wineglasses(02 of22)
Open Image Modal
“I bought a set of the Estelle Colored Glass wine glasses for my friend’s birthday this year and she absolutely loved them. This set comes with two in the color yellow, but you can buy other colors and set sizes, too. Each glass is hand blown and makes a great addition to any bar cart.” — Kristen Adaway, shopping writer (credit:Nordstrom)
Dagne Dover Landon carryall bag(03 of22)
Open Image Modal
"I recently gifted myself this neoprene Dagne Dover duffle bag during their Black Friday sale since I'm planning on traveling a bit for the holidays this year. I've never really owned a nice travel duffle, and this one has all the hallmarks of convenience and traveling ease thanks to its surprisingly roomy interior, which can easily accommodate a pair of shoes, several sweaters and all of my on-hand essentials. I also like that, aside from your standard zipper compartment, there's also two column pockets for things like a water bottle, plus an inner laptop sleeve and a hidden outer pocket made just for your phone. This does come in multiple sizes and colors, but I went with the medium and I think it will be perfect as a TSA-approved carry-on or even trips to the office and back." — Tessa Flores, shopping writer (credit:Dagne Dover)
Breville Bambino espresso machine(04 of22)
Open Image Modal
"After months of hinting, I finally caved and am getting my partner an at-home espresso machine. This is Breville's smallest iteration, making it perfect for our cozy apartment kitchen. It comes with a metal frothing cup, which I wasn't expecting, and packs a lot of punch for a much lower price point than a traditional espresso machine. I can't wait to make lattes in my jammies!" — Lourdes Uribe, senior shopping writer (credit:Williams Sonoma)
KitchenAid 5-quart stand mixer(05 of22)
Open Image Modal
“I’ve been doing a lot of baking this winter, but I’m still a novice and don’t have a ton of equipment. (For example, I used the bottom half of a turkey baster to roll out some dough for a batch of sugar cookies last weekend.) And while I've been trying to get by on elbow grease and sometimes my immersion blender to mix ingredients, I know that my hobby would be a lot easier if I had a stand mixer. I’m really seriously considering getting one for myself this year — especially because this high-capacity and reviewer-approved model from KitchenAid is almost 50% off at Target right now.” — Ruane (credit:Target)
Wowshow thick hoop earrings(06 of22)
Open Image Modal
"The hoops [from this story]. They are so comfortable, so light, and perfect hoop size — literally the best White Elephant/Secret Santa budget-friendly gift that someone would actually wear every day." — Becca Maier, VP of commerce operations (credit:Amazon)
Barefoot Dreams Cozychic adult robe(07 of22)
Open Image Modal
"This was my fiancé's (requested) birthday gift this year after she got a couple for friends who were in dire need of comfort (e.g., a new mom). 10/10, unimaginably soft." — Matt Shuham, reporter (credit:Amazon)
Breville Smart Oven air fryer toaster oven(08 of22)
Open Image Modal
"My mom is obsessed with her toaster oven but has been begging for an air fryer — and there’s not enough room for in her tiny kitchen for both. I’m surprising her with this Breville Smart Oven air fryer (in navy blue to match her Keurig), and the reviews are so good I might just buy one for myself." — Gina Escandon, audience editor (credit:Amazon)
Piggy Paint natural nail polish(09 of22)
Open Image Modal
“While my daughter was potty training, her nanny would often paint her nails as a way to get her to stay on the potty. Now my daughter wants her nails painted all the time, so I've been on the lookout for a kid-friendly option that won't make our playroom smell like toxic chemicals. I discovered Piggy Paint at Nashville's Tabla Rasa this weekend and I think it fits the bill — it's odorless and totally free of the harsh chemicals normally found in nail polish, including formaldehyde, toluene, bisphenol A, ethyl acetate and acetone. Because of the formulation, the polish takes a little longer to dry, so the brand recommends setting nails with a hair dryer for best results.” — Ruane (credit:Amazon)
Renpho active deep tissue massage gun(10 of22)
Open Image Modal
"I'm gifting a massage gun from Tessa Flores' roundup. I chose this one for my mom!" — Theresa D'Angelo, managing editor of revenue (credit:Amazon)
Cuddl Duds flannel sheet set(11 of22)
Open Image Modal
"My mom and I haven’t bought anything but these for the past decade’s worth of winters, and if you invite me to your housewarming, I’m guaranteed to bring you a set of these sheets. They’re so cozy and cute." — Kristen Aiken, head of Life (credit:Kohl's)
The Original Body Roller(12 of22)

"I gave my dad this and he loves! He had Achilles heel surgery and has been using this daily." — Greta Geiselman, director of office services (credit:Amazon)
The North Face Printed 92 retro anniversary Nuptse jacket(13 of22)
Open Image Modal
"Winter in the northeast is brutal and anything that can make it cozier for the people I love is a big win. The Nuptse is well-known for keeping you toasty but this style is bespoke, chic, and to me, pretty gender-fluid for a winter jacket. It adds a little edge to classic cold-weather staple and I love it." — Raj Punjabi, director of HuffPost Voices (credit:The North Face)
Hario cold brew bottle(14 of22)
Open Image Modal
“My parents have recently gotten really into cold brew, and while they claim they are perfectly happy buying concentrate from Starbucks, I want to introduce them to the joy and ease of creating their own. I spotted these wine bottle-ish-sized vessels in a gift guide from our friends at BuzzFeed and just thought they were so nice-looking, and they appear to be very easy to use. You simply put grounds into the interior filter basket, fill the bottle with water, and let the mixture steep for at least 12 hours. Hario is a decades-old Japanese glassware brand that’s been making coffee accessories since the 40s, so I’m trusting they know their stuff when it comes to brew.” — Ruane (credit:Amazon)
ODODOS unisex mini belt bag(15 of22)
Open Image Modal
"After eyeing my Lululemon Everywhere belt bag, my mom non-subtly asked for one herself, which is tricky because they're always sold out. This one on Amazon is about half the price with a ton of reviews that say it's a perfect dupe. It comes in 24 colors, all in stock. I'm getting the black for her and the bright orange for me." — Griffin Wynne, shopping writer (credit:Amazon)
Lululemon Align high-rise crop 21"(16 of22)
Open Image Modal
"Lululemon’s Align [legging] is just so soft and comfy. This is my [favorite] perfect length for us short folks. The graphite gray is so flattering!" — Jianan Liu, art director (credit:Lululemon)
Silicone craft mat(17 of22)
Open Image Modal
“Kristen Aiken, head of the Life department at HuffPost, recently shared on Slack that she’d gotten these craft mats for her school-age niece and nephew and I immediately added them to my Amazon cart. I really like encouraging my kids to draw and paint, but as any parent can attest, post-craft cleanup can be a huge headache. I’ll take anything that might help that process go a little faster.” — Ruane (credit:Amazon)
"Fun aunt" hat(18 of22)
Open Image Modal
"My favorite cousin and my best friend from college are two of the coolest aunts around, and this year, they both will be getting this 'fun aunt' hat from me. It comes in this pretty purple as well as green and pink, and makes a sweet, not super expensive present celebrating their love of family." — Wynne (credit:shopcoldcream on Etsy)
Wooden pepper mill(19 of22)
Open Image Modal
“I accidentally lost my chef boyfriend’s pepper mill in the shuffle of moving apartments and I felt so bad about it, so I bought him this one for Christmas. I initially thought it wouldn’t be as good as his fancy one, but he ended up loving it and it still works after two years.” — Adaway (credit:Amazon)
Spicewalla spice set(20 of22)
Open Image Modal
"I love my big brother, but we're not super duper close and I never really know what to get him for holidays. A few years ago, I sent him some spices, because he mentioned he'd been cooking more with his air fryer. Since then, I've sent him a variation of spices and spice sets every winter. I love finding cool small brands, often led by queer folks and/or people of color. Last year I found Spicewalla and was immediately obsessed with their gorgeous packaging. This year I'm getting him the 'Taco' set that comes with super versatile spices for meats, soups, sauces and more." — Wynne (credit:Spicewalla)
Mejuri thin dome ring(21 of22)
Open Image Modal
"I've been looking to add a dome-shaped ring to my stack, and this one from Mejuri is perfect for my petite fingers. I struggle to find rings that go down to my size, and while I love an imposing ring, they just don't look good on me. This is the thinner version of Mejuri's Dome ring, and my fingers and toes are crossed that my parents stick to my wishlist and it finally makes it onto my scrawny little old witch fingers." — Uribe (credit:Mejuri)
NFL soft cooler from Igloo(22 of22)
Open Image Modal
"You don't have to be the #1 team in the NFC East to enjoy a soft cooler, but it certainly helps. For tailgates, beach trips and general 'Go Birds' energy, I will be gifting many people in my life this Eagles soft cooler. Don't worry, it comes in every other team, too, for the football fan in your life." — Wynne (credit:Igloo)
