This month is overflowing with holiday parties, wrapping up work projects, and Christmas shopping for my friends and family. And while others may go a little crazy when they catch sight of their to-do lists, I say bring it on — ’tis the season! A few days ago I was in a hurry to find the perfect gift for my friend who’s hosting a party, as well as a few things for my office Secret Santa, so I made a #TargetRun to knock out all of my shopping in one go. I pride myself on being an exceptional gift giver and Target’s holiday collections made it easy to check everyone off of my shopping list. And I’ve got to admit that I may have snuck in a little reward for myself after all that hard work. Scroll down to shop some of my favorites.

We’re handing out these pretty bottles of elderflower cocktail syrup to guests at a holiday party later this week!

Rose gold bar tools are the perfect gift for the hostess who likes to play mixologist.

Deck out the Christmas tree with these adorable felt animal ornaments.

We’ve used this antler candelabra in almost every single photo shoot this fall and winter! Your hostess will be equally obsessed.

Add a cozy vibe to your fireplace with one of these faux fur knit stockings and a plush throw blanket.
Target has the nicest things. I enjoyed it while it was here in Canada and miss it now!

As a regular hostess I’d LOVE to get some more stemless wine glasses as a gift. I have broken no fewer than 3 stemmed ones this year alone while cleaning them, but my stemless ones are nearly bulletproof! Oh, and they make me so much less nervous about serving red wine to guests, haha.
