2026 Gift Guides: Last Year's Best Gifts

2026 Gift Guides: Last Year's Best Gifts


Gift guide season is officially here! It's probably my tenth year making gift guides, and it never stops being such a fun way to shop for those you love around the holidays. I have many gift guides planned for this season, but we’re starting with the ones that have already proven themselves. Before we get into this year’s new finds, I’m kicking off the 2026 gift guide season with last year’s best gifts: the picks that got the most clicks, the most “please share this” DMs, and the most repeat purchases. If you’re getting a head start on your list, start here. 

Everything below is tried, loved, and still worth buying, and I’ve linked it all in one place!

There is nothing better than fall in New York; the weather lately has been perfect, there are so many fun things going on, and the holidays are right around the corner. I can't wait to host Thanksgiving in our apartment for the third year in a row, and start dressing up for holiday parties. This year has been flying by but every month has truly been just so fun.

When October rolled around... 12 days ago.... I had no intention of delaying the monthly moodboard for so long! Usually, within a day or two of the new month, I feel such an itch to create the new moodboard... but for some reason, this month I just didn't! I so appreciate all of you who asked and DM'd and reached out about where the moodboard was, and I am so sorry it took me so long to share one this month!

Happy September! August absolutely flew by; I've been out of NYC traveling for 2+ weeks with one more to go; it's been lovely getting so much time in nature (Napa, Wisconsin, Oregon...) but with September always comes an itch for me to return to routine and get my life in order. This summer was incredible, and I am so sad to see it go. It will always be such a special time to me, but I am looking forward to getting back to the city next week and starting to get into a routine ahead of another wedding at the end of the month (my first time as a bridesmaid!) and our engagement party next month.

It's my favorite month of the year!! Happy August! My birthday month is here and it's going to be a good one. July will be hard to top (I can't believe I actually got engaged!!!), but this month we have a ton of travel to look forward to, which I always love: two weddings across the country, trips back to Wisconsin, and a return to Napa Valley... it's going to be busy, but so fun.
