HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE: FOR H I M
Mid November and I'm putting gift guides together already feeling like I'm behind. I saw a meme today that said "IT'S ALMOST TIME TO SWITCH FROM MY EVERYDAY ANXIETY TO MY FESTIVE CHRISTMAS ANXIETY" & if that isn't me to the tee!? Where does the time go? This year went from September 21st to "holy shit am I ready for Christmas yet!?" REAL fast!
SO with that being said, the gifts that give me the most anxiety are the gifts for HIM! I feel like I never know what to get Austin, my dad, or my brothers! All these men in my life and I am most likely freaking out every single year the week before Christmas gets here and scrambling for gift ideas. Change starts now, I am on the hunt for HIM and sharing all my ideas, with y'all!
Ready, set, lets stop festive Christmas anxiety NOW!

1. NIXON 'THE SENTRY' LEATHER STRAP WATCH
I used to be all about the metal watches on a guy these past few years, but I am loving the simplicity of the leather band this year! It looks so dapper and works for even the most simple guys in your life!
2. BOSE SOUNDLINK REVOLVE BLUETOOTH SPEAKER
The perfect gift for the music lover! I have a Bose speaker in my living room and I love them! They get so loud and don't break the bank in the process! They're small enough too that I always throw it in my suitcase when I travel to use in my hotel room!
3. I.AM+ BUTTONS BLUETOOTH HEADPHONES
Another easy gift for the music lover! Love that these headphones are bluetooth without being chunky over the head like most! These are ideal for the guy who likes to workout too since they're cordless! Austin is guilty of still using his old iPhone headphones so these are on my list for him for sure!
4. THE NORTHWEST HARWAY HEATSEEKER JACKET
Okay so Austin hates buying clothes for himself- so sorry half of his Christmas presents are always clothes & I feel like I don't even need to explain why! I like my man to dress well, obviously! I get him a new color of these jeans every year, they look so good on him and he loves how comfortable they are. I like how they seem to dress us his typical t shirt & Jack Purcell look! This Northface is on my list for him this year too- it seems like the perfect lightweight jacket for our California nights!
5. TIMBERLAND WODEHOUSE LOST HISTORY BOOTS
Once again, another gift I have given to Austin already and a true hit in my family- every guy has them, no joke! These boots are a great casual boot investment that will last for years! They've come back 3 seasons in a row and I foresee them sticking around for years to come
Enjoying beer the right way includes the proper glass! It's like wine, it tastes better in the glass it belongs in and one or more guy in your life is sure to enjoy this gift! These are perfect for the IPA & craft beer lover- an easy extra add on gift too!
7. HYPERICE VYPER VIBRATING ROLLER
Hands down the BEST/MOST USED gift I've ever given Austin! I steal it, his friends steal it, it is legit! If the guy you're buying works out at all, he will definitely love this gift! Rather than a normal foam roller, it has three levels of vibrations that help relax the sore muscles easier & quicker! It is great for therapeutic use as well- this ones a MUST! He has the first product linked which is great for large body parts- the ball is good for more concentrated areas.
Know a guy who loses everything? Misplaces his wallet? Keys? Cell phone? Luggage? These are AMAZING! They attach to an app on your phone where you can track the lost item and even make the item, such as your keys, 'ding' when you're looking for them! Pretty sure every guy in my life needs these! Maybe myself included, HA!
BEST stocking stuffer! This all in one leaves your man smelling so good and they love it because the Eucalyptus/Juniper combo wakes them right up in the morning! I love all of the Jack Black collection for men! Many are perfect stocking stuffers!
10. CHANEL BLEU DE CHANEL GIFT SET
The easiest gift to give any guy in your life! I love these for myself and my mom gets me a perfume gift set every year. I do the Chanel Chance Eau Tendre for myself, and the Chanel Bleu for Austin! It's the perfect light and fresh scent. My brother does the YSL & I love that one too! No matter the guy in your life, this is my go-to when I'm lost! I always make sure to do the 'Travel Set' because it gives the perfect travel size cologne which they can throw into their gym bag, car, or travel with vs. body wash and lotion which no one uses!
Just like for us ladies, I love when guys pull off the streetwear activewear look. Yes they may just have worked out, or maybe they're just running around town but we want our guys to look good doing it! (At least I do, and I know I'm not alone!) These wrap up my gift guide for him & are great comfortable sneakers for guys!
I hope y'all find this helpful! Feel free to comment below or email me with any questions!
Goodluck!
