2020 is coming to an end and Christmas is right around the corner (literally in 10 days away).
If you are anything like me, you’ve just started shopping for friends and family.
I know..I know.. why did I wait so long!? I think it’s the rush of ordering that gives me a thrill.
I can’t really explain it but if you are like me I decided to put together a small gift guide that’s near and dear to my heart for 2 reasons. The first reason is… I have all of these items in my home already. These are things I love and I use/wear. And secondly, these are all items created by black owned businesses (the majority are black-women based).
Check out the direct links below to the items on the grid and get to shopping!
Boss Blend Coffee - Coffee has definitely become a staple in my home during quarantine / working from home since March. Any one of these coffees will make a great holiday gift for a friend, co-worker, or loved one!
Bassy Collection - This is one of my favorite fashion online stores to shop at. I LOVE this anchor logo beanie. I also have a black washable canvas face mask and a dope WORTHY sweatshirt from Bassy Collection.
BGLH Marketplace - The sandalwood and bergamot blended butter has been keeping my skin moisturized during these cold months. Even-though a lot of us are in the house working there’s still no need for being ashy. Get you some of these blended butters.
YGN (You Go Natural) - The wrap I ordered was the Noir - T-Shirt Bun Wrap. I love this because the wrap already comes knotted and has a satin interior to keep your hair from breaking.
Love Leone - During the summer I kept seeing these really beautiful body candles and I came across an IG page that featured the same candles but in brown skin. I immediately had to order one and I absolutely love the way it looks in the living room and I can’t wait to burn it. The candle I ordered was the Les Corps.
McBride Sisters - Since the summer I’ve been enjoying the Black Girl Magic wine series by the McBride Sisters. These wines make the perfect gift for any celebration. In my home we have plenty of the Black Girl Magic Red Blend and the Black Girl Magic Rosé.
Eat Fab Shop Fab - I’m a big fan of Christopher. Her menus and fab t-shirts are all so dope, I want them ALL. I purchased the Rosé Only t-shirt and I’m about to order the Whiskey Only t-shirt next.
Plant Bae Collective - Quarantine has definitely ramped up the amount of plants we have at home. It adds so much beauty to our apartment and we are actually home to take care of them more than before. My plant-connect is the Plant Bae Collective and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Check out the instagram page and hit them up with questions and to see what’s available for ordering.
I hope you enjoyed this little list and if you’ve ordered any of the items below let me know what you think of them in the comments section. Happy Holidays! xoxo
