If you’re like me, you have a lot of people to shop for this holiday season. Buying holiday gifts on a budget is important, but so is having your gifts look luxe. We have compiled a list of 10 gifts under $50 that will appease your budget, and make the recipient happy!
Lululemon Belt Bags
The Lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag ($38) has officially hit cult status. Choose from a variety of colors to match any outfit.You can also choose the 2L Everywhere Belt Bag for $48. At press time, the Wunderlust Belt Bag was discounted from $58 to $39. I have a belt bag, and I have also gifted them. They are so versatile, not to mention trendy! Great gift for any age.
Plush Throw Blankets
If you don’t have the budget for an UGG Throw Blanket ($88-$248), this UnHide Lil' Marsh X-Small Plush Blanket ($45) is a great option. I have several and they are super soft. Nordstrom also has their own Bliss Plush Throw Blanket ($29) that features a cute fringe accent. Throws are great gifts since they can be used in so many places. I even toss them in the car for long drives with the kids.
Wireless Earbuds
While Apple Airpods are the gold standard, at $249, they are a bit steep. There are so many great options under $50. These Skullcandy Jib True 2 In-Ear Wireless Earbuds retail for $39.99, but we have seen them on sale for $14.99. And these JBL Vibe Beam True Wireless Headphones are $49.95. Amazon typically also offers a 50% discount on a variety of JBL wireless headphones, dropping them to $50 or less. Cheaper earbuds can also make great stocking stuffers, while the spendier versions can be a “wow” gift.
Kate Spade Jewelry
The outlet offers up to 70% off a variety of jewelry with almost everything coming in under $50. Or mix and match to serve up a set. A mini initial pendant ($44) is also a sweet way to give a gift honoring a loved one. And these Pave Mini Huggies ($48) are a staple that look more luxe than the price.
Stanley 40oz Tumbler
Another viral sensation, the Stanley 40oz Tumbler($45) is this year’s water bottle. It’s available in seasonal colors, is customizable, and is also available in other sizes if the Quencher is too big. Nordstrom also sells a variety of colors and offers free shipping.
Scented Candles
So many varieties under $50. Nordstrom sells Capri Blue, a personal favorite, and I love this Glimmer Holiday Candles Gift Set for $46, so you get four different scents. Anthropologie also offers a selection of decorative candles under $50. Yankee Candle is known for its large glass scented candles. You can often find a buy one, get one 50% off offer. I like to buy pretty candles and wrap them for those unexpected people you need to gift during the season.
Beauty Gifts
So many options. A few of my favorites are the Laneige Midnight Minis Set ($20), The Holiday Sephora Favorites Hair Kit ($48), the Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Jet Set ($30), the Jo Malone Christmas Trio Gift Set ($48) and this L’Occitane Shea 5-Piece Holiday Gift Set ($29).
Slippers
These Warmies Faux-Fur Slippers ($30) are microwavable and scented with lavender. Very luxurious! I also love these baby/walker UGG Bixbee Booties ($40). These J. Crew Factory Suede Shearling Slippers ($34.50) are dupes of UGGs and a great option for teens. These Bruno Marc Slippers ($16) are a great inexpensive option for the men in your life.
Holiday Gift Baskets
There are so many gift basket options available under $50. We love Harry & David and 1-800-Baskets for a variety of high-end baskets featuring gourmet food, spa items, and more.
Gift Cards
Finally, when in doubt, you can never go wrong with a gift card. Target, Amazon, and Walmart are all good options, but you can basically buy a gift card to any store these days!
