Editors' Picks: Holiday Gift Guide 2016

Paddywax Hygge Candle in Tobacco & Vanilla, $29

“I have been buying Paddywax candles for years. They’re always soy-based and hand-poured in the U.S., and their fragrances and containers are always so en pointe. The new ‘Hygge’ series is making my heart go pitter-patter since it marries 3 of my obsessions: hygge, the unique Danish concept of coziness; pretty containers that double as decoration; and tobacco scented things. (Except of course actual cigarettes… :P) Yum!!”

Eberjay PJ set, $120

“Ever since the amazing ladies at Journelle helped me find my true bra size (soo different than what I’d been wearing for years!! gah) I’ve been obsessed with this upscale lingerie boutique. Since we spend most of our time away from the office in PJs (just me?), it helps to wear something that makes you feel comfy yet chic–like this PJ set.”
