Popsugar Fashion Fashion Shopping 33 Items on a Fashion Editor's Holiday Shopping List 2021 Here's What a Fashion Editor Shops For the Holidays — Gifts Included! 4 November 2021 by Sarah Wasilak Image Source: Sleeper As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work. If you have a loved one who seems to be wearing a new outfit each and every time you see them (including on Instagram), there's no fashion gift they won't appreciate. In the instance of the chic lifestyle presents we've curated ahead, there's a very good chance you'll want to purchase one for yourself, too. Whether it be a bag from an emerging brand we've recently discovered or a tried-and-true classic, like a pair of UGG slippers, this is what we're actually buying for friends and family this holiday season, and for ourselves, too — at a wide range of price points. In fact, most of our orders have already shipped, so read on to play catch-up with a fashion editor's trusty shopping guide.
