It’s the most festive time of the year! People are in good cheer, and parties are in full swing! The social butterflies are fully in their element, and thriving, no doubt; but, all this flitting from this celebration to the next can leave one fresh out of ideas for what is expected of the typical party guest. Forget thinking about what to wear, move on to thinking about what to gift your hosts!
Do you get something just for the host, or something for the house? Do you get something they need for the season or something they can use all year round? Decisions, decisions! Luckily, Shopbop makes the thinking process beyond simple and easy. Here are some of our top picks!
- Scented Candles
Great for anyone who enjoys entertaining, scented candles are a no-fail present for parties. Not only can they be used immediately, but some scents are tailored just for the season. To get the most bang for your buck, choose a universally loved scent, like jasmine, vanilla, or cinnamon. These are welcome all year-round scents and a great buy for any home!
- A set of glasses
Much like scented candles, this apropos present can also be used immediately–especially if there are plenty of guests! Glasses are always the first thing to be used and the first thing that piles up in the sink or dishwasher. So bring some extra as a present, and you’ll be sure to be invited to every celebration!
- A guest book
For people who love to host, a guest book can be a fun way for them to document their different celebrations. Many guest books now leave space for guests to write a few words about the party or the host, and the gift of being able to preserve those words and thoughts is priceless!
- Christmas socks
At the end of the night, every host wants to put their feet up and just relax. What better way than with a comfy pair of fluffy holiday stockings? WARNING: While the decision to give socks might be easy, the decision to choose which ones to give can be difficult! Especially when you have as many cute styles as they do on Shopbop!
- Scarf or shawl
If you know your host well, a more personal present can be the best way to go. A scarf or a shawl is the perfect blend of personal and everyday functions. Since it’s an article of clothing that can be incorporated into their existing wardrobe, you know it is likely to be used and appreciated!
