’tis the season // under $50 gift guide for her

There’s something so fun and festive about publishing my first gift guide of the season. As I sit here sipping coffee with cheesy Christmas movies on in the background, the reality that Christmas is just a few weeks away is finally setting in. Jingle jingle, friends!

Today, I’m excited to share my 2019 under $50 gift guide for her! (You can find gift guides from years past here.) I’ve spent a ton of time including products I personally love, as well as researching gifts that pack a punch without a hefty price tag!

There are so many great ideas below, and I hope they make Christmas shopping fun for you instead of a chore!

Unlike most of my collages, this roundup isn’t click-able. But I have all the details linked at the end of the post… so keep scrolling for details!
