We understand it’s hard to keep a straight face when tapping into your inner Santa sometimes.
Especially because the man wear's a bright-red suit.
But the holidays are still the best time of year to swaddle someone in a cozy sweater or quilted jacket. Or to adorn their coffee table with a handsome book detailing the inimitable style of one Mr. James Bond. Or to give someone a gorgeous vase that doubles as a bong and then suggest you test it out before your relatives arrive...

Your friend drinks whiskey, takes names, and is the best candidate for miles around to get The Overholt Chore Coat, a limited-edition, woven twill jacket from 214-year-old whiskey brand Overholt, made by Seeker Los Angeles. Each durable coat is individually numbered and communicates the essential thought, “I love whiskey so much, I bought the jacket.”
Let’s see. It looks handsome. And it protects them from the cold. Yep, Untuckit’s quilted city jacket checks off all the boxes for a perfect gift for anyone exhibiting that rare combination of wanting to look good and not be freezing cold all winter.
Oh. Mantlepiece’s gorgeous vintage-inspired flower vase that’s cleverly disguised to not look like an obvious bong? Well, it’s also a bong. Secret's out.

As you stand there adjusting the thermostat through frozen fingers. Sigh.
“I really don’t need anything… “ Translation: They need quality boxers and tees that they wouldn’t probably buy for themselves. Manmade’s Boxer and T-Shirt Bundle pairs one super soft, pima-modal cotton t-shirt with two pairs of moisture-wicking, comfy-as-hell boxers made from plant-based materials. Conveniently killing two metaphorical birds with one physical bundle of undergarments. As the saying goes.
It can be so hard to shop for her. Do you get the earrings? The necklace? What would a ring say at this point? Don’t overthink it. Just get her this beyond gorgeous Zaytouna set of handmade sterling silver jewelry, featuring a ring, necklace, and earrings, and never look back.
If they already have more liquor than they can handle, help them handle it with this Horween leather and waxed canvas Wine Tote Bag from Vinarmour. It holds two to three bottles and can carry over 100 pounds. And they may need a few of them.
