Nordstrom is one of my favorite places to shop, so I decided to put together a Nordstrom specific gift guide! I focused on gifts for the traveler, the homebody, the entertainer, the beauty lover, and the luxury lady. Hope you enjoy…
THE TRAVELER
We all have that one family member or friend who is constantly on the road. Maybe it’s by choice, or maybe it’s part of their job, but they’re always hopping on a plane or checking into a hotel miles from home. For the frequent traveler in your life, might I suggest this neoprene carry-on that I am completely smitten with? It’s durable, stands upright on its own, and has all the compartments you need (including an exterior iPhone holder). It even features a luggage caddy strap! The material is easy to clean and does a great job of hiding everyday wear and tear. And for those going far, far away check out this functional and beautiful travel/passport wallet.
Another travel must-have is this cosmetic case, which is large enough to fit everything you need. So many of the cases I come across are simply too small! Bonus points for the amazing assortment of colors.
None of us can keep up with all the attachments and adapters we need for our devices, but this little wireless transmitter gadget is a lifesaver. It allows you to connect Bluetooth headphones to audio devices that don’t have Bluetooth capabilities. For those times when you don’t want to listen to a podcast or music, but also don’t want to hear everyone else on the plane (or outside your hotel room), these earplugs are an absolute must.
Last but not least, a great pair of cozy socks instantly makes any home away from home feel a little more comfortable!

THE HOMEBODY
Now for the opposite of the traveler: the homebody! This is the gal who loves to get comfy and cozy and knows there is truly no place like home. And if we’re going to make home even better, I have a few ideas…
First up, these incredibly soft PJs and the slippers I swear by. A winning combination if you ask me!
Want to make home smell better than ever? May I introduce you to this diffuser. I love Jo Malone scents, and honestly, this would make a wonderful gift for just about anyone.
Now, if you really want to dazzle her, give her one of the best pillows I have ever slept on. Then, surprise her with this weighted eye blanket, which genuinely makes a huge difference in the quality of my sleep.
Another fabulous idea? These shower steamers, which come in an array of scents and turn any bathroom into your own little spa experience!

THE ENTERTAINER & THE COOK
While I may not be much of a cook, I do love to entertain, and I have a few great ideas for this person on your list!
I just got this appetizer tray and am seriously impressed. It makes putting together a spread so incredibly easy, and sharing much less awkward! These pinch bowls are wonderful for cooking, but I personally love using them for little nibbles while guests are mingling and trickling into the party.
For those who love serving up a great drink, a cocktail book and wine chiller are always a good idea. I didn’t realize just how much I would actually use a wine bottle chiller until I received one myself!
A few more ideas? This adorably useful ceramic dish, one of my favorite olive oils to elevate any meal, and this cute little electric kettle that makes pouring a cup of tea a breeze!

THE BEAUTY LOVER
Gift sets! Two of my favorites are this one and this one. I typically avoid gifting beauty sets that are too specific, like makeup, since those choices can be a bit too personal.
When it comes to hair, this dryer would be SUCH a treat to unwrap. And as you know, I swear by a hair towel like this one.
If I were to gift just one beauty product, it would be this cream face mask. It’s one of my everyday favorites and such a crowd-pleaser. It’s also perfect for a White Elephant exchange or a Favorite Things party,

THE LUXURY LADY
If you are giving or receiving any of these gifts, color me jealous!
This watch is timeless, elegant, and in my opinion, a great price point for a luxury timepiece. I own it, wear it all the time, and love switching out the straps. Another luxury accessory? This gold signet ring. It’s a piece you can wear every day and one that will be passed down from one generation to the next.
Looking for a luxe gift that doesn’t break the bank? Try this set of mini candles. They are absolutely divine!
For some real splurges, I love this bag in the most gorgeous shade of green, and this bar tool set that is completely over the top. Perhaps the perfect gift for that person who already has everything?
