50 Gift Ideas Under $150

My gifting strategy is pretty simple: solve the pain point but make it cute, aesthetic, or slightly more bougie. At the end of the day, I want to give gifts that the receiver will actually use. These are the gifts I love receiving so it makes sense. While some of the items feel basic, I think you can spice it up by choosing a more “aesthetic” option or personalizing it. I think a lot of folks think gifts need to be overly unique, but in my humble opinion, I want something that I like to look it, something that will make my life easier, or something that is a little luxe. But, that’s just me! Find 50 gift ideas under $125 that are sure to be a hit! Shop everything here on shopmy.

I also heard an excellent tip on TikTok the other day when trying to gift shop. If you ever hear someone complain or lament about something, think about if there’s a gift that will fill the gap or fix the problem. A lot of people probably do this unintentionally, but I liked the tip!

My Christmas Wish List

This year I’m focused on cozy, quality, and beauty. Little treats and some tech!

Beats Powerbeats Pro – I’ve ben itching to get some new workout headphones that don’t slip out of my ears as easily as the AirPods. These are highly recommended among fitness influencers on TikTok for ear-bud style options.

Ugg Cozy Knit Slippers – I very badly need an upgrade on my slipper situation. I love a house shoe especially in the winter when the floors are SO cold. I love the knit design on this style of Uggs and the substantial sole that’s missing on some of their other styles.

Westman Atelier Foundation Stick – Westman Atelier has been one of my favorite brands to try this year. The Baby Cheeks Blush is such a good blush product. I’ve had my eye on the Foundation stick for ages but it’s a little bit too pricey for me to justify. Perfect choice for a gift, though!

Pat McGrath Sunlit Seduction Eyeshadow Palette – It’s always shocking too me that I’ve never tried any of Pat McGrath’s products. Most of them are real beauty cult classics. I want to dip my toes into her eyeshadow palettes first (although the foundation is also on my personal beauty wishlist).

Crew Socks – I am that person that always asks for the most mundane stocking stuffers and restocks. Socks, bras, underwear, layering tops and tanks, etc. This year i’m in real need of new socks. The frill detail on these is so cute and they look THICK.

50 gift ideas under $150 gabby in the city the weekly
2022 Gift Guides

Madewell Perfect Vintage Jeans – There is a reason the Madewell Perfect Vintage Jeans are always sold out. They are one of my favorite styles of jeans on the market right now. While I love the price point on the Old Navy Sky Hi straight jean, I do love a good pair of Madewell denim.

Rhode Lip Peptide Treatment – Call me influenced. But, I need to try something from Rhode expeditiously. I’m a lip product fanatic and naturally my eye has been glued to the Lip Peptide Treatments and Tints, and the Watermelon shade looks divine!

Wilson’s Leather Jacket – Very badly in need of a good Leather Jacket that I can wear out and about in New York. I adore several styles from Wilson right now, but I think the bomber detailing on this one is fantastic.

Concealer Brush – My not-so-controversial makeup take is that your makeup looks best when you use makeup brushes. I’ve been on the market for a concealer brush meant for under eye application. This is a super easy stocking stuffer option! Beauty blenders and blush/contour brushes are also solid options to pick up for folks as well.

Oversized Wool Scarf – I adore this oversized scarf from COS, and it looks so warm and cozy. I’ve heard the best things about COS quality and would love to add a piece from them to my collection.

Gucci Flora – This scent has been on my list for ages. I was really looking for this to be a spring/summer scent but it has a freshness that can work all year round. My dad will frequently pick up a new scent for me and I’m very into this one!

LOOPS Face Masks – I do a face mask every week pretty much and love to get stocked up over the holidays so I don’t have to purchase them for myself. They are essential but also can get a little pricey. I typically go for Patchology eye gels, but have been wanting to try LOOPS for awhile too!

Skims Long Sleeve PJ Set – I am a pajama set girly to my core, and I love a matching moment. The options for a quality classic piping style of PJ set is severely limited but I love the red wine color way at SKIMS right now. Kimmy really nails quality every time with SKIMS and I love that.
