Holiday Gift Guide: Favorite Things of 2021

Grab your Kadak Masala Chai! Today I’m sharing my Holiday Gift Guide: Favorite Things of 2021. It’s one of my favorite posts of the year since I share my honest feedback on products that have been tried and tested and I truly love. These are items I’ve used over and over again in 2021, and I highly recommend all of them, including Krish’s Favorite Toys.

I broke these down into the following categories (shopping links provided below):

Without further ado, here are my favorite items of 2021.

Holiday Gift Guide: Favorite Things of 2021

 


Kitchen

The Oster Air Fryer has got to be my most used kitchen gadget of 2021. It’s a 9 function Air Fryer that toasts, bakes, broils, air fries, and more. My next favorite item on this list is the Le Creuset (here and here) dutch ovens. I love cooking most of my dishes here – Indian, Mexican, Thai Curries. They’re so versatile and the quality is incredible.

Home

My absolute favorite home purchase this year has been my Barefoot Dreams blanket. It is so soft, plush, and cozy. It’s perfect for these cold winter days. I use my blanket every single day, it’s literally on my side of the couch and I absolutely love it. Although it is a bit pricey, I use this item the most. The other product I love is my Foot Massager which helped me get through my pregnancy and days I’ve been on my feet a lot – and it’s a lot. 🙂

The second row are all my Christmas favorites, including my very own first Christmas Tree purchase. I also picked up a bunch of ornaments

Beauty

Right now you can take advantage of the Sephora Sale where you’ll receive 20% off any of these items using code GIFTEASY.

If I had to choose just one beauty item that I absolutely love, it would be the Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Eyeshadow. What I love about this product is that it’s an eyeshadow stick, but also works as an eyeliner for your waterline. The colors are just beautiful – so far I have purchased shades khaki and forbidden rose. I am looking to purchase plum or rose thorn next during the Sephora Sale (get 20% off using code GIFTEASY). My next favorite beauty purchase would be the Charlotte Tilbury lipstick shade Bitch Perfect, it is just perfection! It is a pale pink that looks good with any outfit.

For skincare, my top two picks are the Drunk Elephant Glycolic Acid serum – this serum is my holy grail. It is seriously amazing. If you have those tiny bumps on the forehead, this is the serum that clears it up. My next favorite is the Tatcha Dewy Skin Cream moisturizer. So so good!

Fashion

Since I don’t shop for clothes all that much except during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and Black Friday, all these items are my favorites. I used all of them so much, but if I had to pick my top two favorites, they would be the Express Midi Sweater Dress (currently 50% off) and the Barefood Dreams Cardigan. I actually wore the sweater dress during my pregnancy and 3 months postpartum. This dress conforms to your body type so I was able to wear it anytime regardless of my size. The cardigan is great to wear around the house and also while traveling home to NJ.

Personal

The one item I love most here is my K necklace from Anthropologie – K for Krish (in case you are wondering). This necklace was a gift from my mother-in-law on Mother’s Day. I wear this daily along with the mama necklace she gave me (unfortunately, the mama necklace at Anthro is sold out).

I also love Michael’s plastic jewelry box. It’s so handy especially when storing Indian jewelry sets.

Travel

I haven’t traveled much this year except visit family in NJ. When I travel now, I always use these Travel Cubes which makes traveling so much easier as everything is nicely organized. I have a pink one for myself and a blue one for Krish – my husband isn’t on board yet, he has his own system lol. 

I also love this Makeup Organizer for travel and home use. It has several compartments which makes finding makeup so much easier. I like this one and this one a lot too.

Krish’s Favorite Toys

And now to share the most important category of all – Krish’s Favorite Toys of 2021. These are the toys that kept him the most engaged and he has spent so much time playing with these toys. His absolute favorite has been the Jumperoo Bouncer
