What a year! The holidays are finally here! And while we’re doing our best to make sure the products we feature will arrive in time, shipping times are especially tricky this year, so we suggest shopping as early as you can.
Stock and shipping times can vary depending on where you live, which product you purchase, and more. So order earlier than you think you need to and be sure to double-check the retailers’ websites for shipping information to ensure that your gift will arrive in time for when you need it.

3. A Wisdom Panel dog DNA kit because it may seem frivolous, but it's actually super insightful and useful for them to find out exactly what their little mutt is a mix of. Plus, when they get asked 12 times at the dog park, they'll actually be able to give a straight answer.
4. A smart wallet with a quick card access mechanism, RFID blocking, and a tracker to keep the valuables they take with them safe and protected, even if they accidentally leave their wallet in an Uber...again.

8. A pair of Sony overhead headphones that left reviewers (almost 3,000!!) raving that these are some of the best headphones they've ever used. The 30-hour battery life, quick charging, touch sensors controls, speak-to-chat technology, and more features take these the extra mile and make them one stellar gift.
9. A breathtakingly beautiful cashmere coat so timeless they'll wear it all winter long (and next winter, and the winter after that) because it will keep them stylish and warm.

17. An adjustable standing desk because if they've been working from home since March 2020 (or earlier) and haven't invested in a good desk, they'll be so very thankful to finally have an actual space to get their work done. This baby is well worth it. Not only can they customize the height (and move it up and down during the day as they please), but it can hold up to 275 pounds, is water and scratch resistant, and has an included cable tray to keep your desk free and clear of cords.

19. A Courant catchall with a built-in charger to streamline the look of a side table and give them a place to hold trinkets *and* charge their phone at the same time. It will add a sophisticated and fancy feel to their living room. Oh, and you can make it an extra special gift by adding a monogram.
20. An Ember temperature control ceramic mug that'll keep their coffee (or tea) warm for hours so they don't take a sip of a cold beverage when they get distracted and forget about the cup they made. It's the little things in life that make it more luxurious.

30. A silver charm bracelet that looks beautiful but is actually SUPER helpful because there's a hidden button on the back they can press if they're ever in danger. If pressed, it will send a text and GPS location to up to five family members (and even 911).
