'Tis the holiday season as we all are aware and every time I turn around I see another holiday gift list. I have a love/hate relationship with them. If I had to guess, no one really wants another coffee mug... So I started to think of what I would want if I was going to give me a present, and because sometimes I am a bit ... persnickety, my mind immediately went to gift cards, but more personalized.
So this is my list of personalized gift cards to get for persnickety people.
The Book Reader
It's always a goal of mine to read a book a month. Seems easy enough... sometimes I succeed, sometimes I fail. A few months ago I signed up for Book of the Month club. Each month they email you with five new selections of books, you pick one of the five, and they ship it to you!
Now, the best part is that it's a great gift! You can give a 3-month subscription for $44.97 which is a good deal, but if you use this link you can save 30% off a 3-month subscription and get a free tote.
That's $30, for three months and a free tote! Great gift for that book lover in your life.
The Busy Fashion Lover
For the person in your life who loves fashion and shopping, but is always complaining about never having anything to wear, get them a personal stylist. A personal stylist with Trunk Club. I share my love for Trunk Club a lot because it's so great for someone who loves clothes but just doesn't have the time to shop or doesn't know how to get out of their own clothing rut.
The best part is is that you can give any amount you want! Go check it out here.
The Makeup Lover
If you're a makeup lover and have had your makeup professionally done, then you know there is nothing else like it. As someone who loves makeup, I LOVE learning new tricks and techniques. My suggestions for this is giving a makeup lover in your life a gift card to Sephora for $50. This way, they can get a makeover and be able to pay for the $50 required product.
Seriously. I love my own idea right now.
The Workout Girl

LOL THIS IS THE MOST ATHLETIC PHOTO I HAVE |
Working out is like therapy for me. I can take a step back from the world, clear my head and feel centered when it's over. My workouts usually consist of HIIT training and cardio, but I LOVE workout classes. So if someone in your life loves working out, think about getting them a gift card to a new class like PurreBarre, or a spinning class. Oh! A pilates class is one of my favorites! If they are already a member of a gym then consider a few personal training classes where they can work on their form. Every year I do a few personal training sessions just to switch it up.
The Travel Enthusiast
If you have a travel lover in your life 🙋🏼 think about a giving miles through your travel lovers favorite airline. This ensures that they will do something for themselves and plan a trip.
Bada-bing-bada-boom.
The TV Lover

I will always watch Dolly if she's on tv. |
If you have a tv/movie lover in your life then I have a few ideas...
1. A Gift card to Netflix. (YES THIS IS A THING)
2. iTunes Giftcard (BC hello movies)
3. Move theater tickets
Those are all good ideas for the person in your life who enjoys a little downtime watching shows or movies. (Also, easy.)
That is my list. You have a little bit for everyone. A gift card doesn't have to be boring, or lame, it can be personalized and with meaning. So think about the person in your life who doesn't 'need' anything else but you still want to get them something personalized that they will love.
I'll take one of each, please.
These are all awesome ideas! I personally would love the travel idea. I love to travel. <3
