Walmart Beauty Gifting Picks!

Post sponsored by Walmart

With the holidays just around the corner, we’re scoring the cutest little gifts on Walmart.com for our girlfriends! Who doesn’t love receiving beauty products, whether it’s something new to try out or your tried-and-true favorites?! And with these Mario Badescu skin care sets, the packaging is so darling that all you need to do is tie a pretty ribbon around the box and you’re good to go. They’re also perfect for stocking stuffers and teacher gifts (or just treating yourself!), and we love the quick and easy shipping.

Other Walmart beauty favorites we’re eyeing to give and receive include this facial cleansing tool, this convenient travel makeup mirror, this silk pillowcase and this pretty nail polish. Take a peek at our latest picks below and you can find even more great holiday gifting ideas for everyone on your list over on walmart.com!

Holiday Season Staples!

We’re big fans of joyful holiday dressing, and bonus points for looks that are equal parts cozy and chic! We’ve got a major crush on J.Crew’s latest styles for the season so we’ve put together a bunch of fun outfits that will carry you through all of your upcoming festive gatherings and occasions. And even better, so many great J.Crew finds are majorly marked down right now!

J.Crew cashmere is one of our longtime go-tos for quality at a great price, and we’re especially smitten with the new brushed cashmere styles that are available this year. The fluffy texture is so cozy and pretty, and it looks far more expensive than the actual price tag.

We also can’t resist a great blazer, and there are so many to choose from at J.Crew right now in velvet, corduroy, wool and more. These are timeless, classic staples that you’ll turn to year after year. I’m wearing a size 4 in the blazers and outerwear and an XS in the sweaters for a more fitted look. We’re sharing more of our latest J.Crew favorites below, and you can see all of their holiday styles here!

Festive Holiday Dressing!

The holiday season is just around the corner so we’re planning out our festive outfits for every event on the calendar! We may be biased, but we think our new collaboration with Buru is the perfect place to start! The collection is full of the prettiest details (brocades, bows, stripes, plaids, scallops!) and timeless silhouettes, all made by hand in Buru’s Los Angeles studio using deadstock fabrics. Styles like this satin opera coat and this mixed plaid dress (made from French silk tie fabric!) will be pieces you treasure for years to come.

Below we’re sharing our Buru favorites that are still in stock, plus more holiday fashion finds you won’t want to miss!
