Christmas Gift Ideas Under $40 and My Christmas Wish List!

Christmas gifts are hard to give, but I have outlined some Christmas gift ideas for those who don’t know what to give that you can find on Amazon (so if you are a last-minute shopper, you can still be ‘on top of it”). Buttttt, I have also included some things that I want for Christmas just for fun.

These are obviously gifts more for girls, but oh well!

  1. Pearl Headbands. For the girl who loves hair accessories, these are so cute. So many people have taken advantage of these packs. This pack is $8.79, free shipping, and comes in pinky/beige and black. Here is another option with more colors.
  2. A jewelry box is a MUST and this one is not only functional but decorative. You can store your jewelry with it on display. There are drawers, dividers, and ring slots. AND only $25!
  3. I ALWAYS get questions about my waves and this is the tool I use. It gives you the perfect beachy waves that last until your next wash. I also have a tutorial on how I use it you can follow here.
  4. These sunglasses are Karen Walker dupes and I LOVE them! I got them for my honeymoon. They are oversized and if they break, it’s ok because they are only $10.99. Great for yourself or a gift.
  5. Packing cubes are necessary for traveling. You don’t realize how much you need them until you don’t have them anymore. This set has many different sizes and options for organizing clothes so everything has a place and if your suitcase opens (like it does in the movies) your underwear isn’t flying across the floor.
  6. I have only heard amazing things from this Revlon blow dryer and volumizer. I don’t have hair that needs a tool like this, but if you or someone you know has, hard to dry, frizzier hair and wants that at-home blowout, this is a great option.
  7. A Hydro Jug with the straw is perfect for the gym going or you just need to drink more water throughout the day. I keep mine at my desk and to get in my water in for the day. They do have a sleeve that has a strap, but I personally don’t like that concept. You can also buy it on the Hydro Jug website, use code “Holley20” to get 20% off your entire purchase. DON’T FORGET THE STRAW!

Now, what I want for Christmas is a little over $40, but this is to help Bryan get some ideas for my gifts.

  1. Lululemon leggings are the way to go! They are great for working out and looks that need leggings. They are thick, but not like uncomfortable and last a looooong time if you wash them correctly. These have a more luxe look so I’m here for it, but they are $108…
  2. Free People, I love and hate this brand. I love everything, but everything is so expensive even when they are on sale. I feel like they are more affordable at Nordstrom when they have sales for Free People than the actual Free People store/website. This sweater would look so cute with the Lululemon leggings though, right?!
  3. I don’t cook. I am not the wife that has dinner ready when Bryan gets home, but maybe I would cook more meals if I could fry up some healthy french fries. Air Fryers are the appliance of the year I feel like and I’ve been missing out!
  4. Remember when stacking rings where like THEE thing to do, well, I miss it and I want more rings that are silver like this one. When you are stacking you only really need one statement ring so this one would be mine. If you know any place with midi rings, let me know.
  5. I won the new Apple watch from my work and I want a more girly watch band to wear with it. I like the white that it comes with, but for everyday wear to work and whatnot, I want a designer inspired one. The Burberry pattern is so timeless so I went with this one.
  6. I love eye masks! I have to sleep in a dark room and if there is a little bit of light, I can’t sleep. Silk is amazing for your skin and hair so I think it’s to upgrade from my free eye masks that come with the Victora Secret pajama sets….
  7. I am a big fan of the athleisure look with well-fitted joggers. I’m not usually an Adidas fan because I feel like you need to wear the same brand and not cross brand when it comes to athletics and when the logos show, but I really like the color and the logo on these so I might just have to start participating in the Adidas logo trend.

I hope this gave you some ideas to include in your wish list this Christmas as well as some gifts for people. If you have other ideas, feel free to leave them in the comments or DM me on Instagram @annierosette93.
