a|dash Coffee Glassware, $49.99 | “Investing in unique glassware is the quickest (and one of the cheapest) ways to elevate a tablescape around the holidays. It also encourages me to drink coffee from my own fridge most days during the work week.”

Brianna: “I’ve recently ditched the purse for a fanny pack to go totally hands-free while walking around town, which is why I’m eyeing these colorful fanny packs from Burlaep. (Pair it with this cute embroidered baseball cap and you’ve got a perfect city ‘fit.)”

Emily: “I love waking up with a warm cup of chai tea in the morning — especially when it’s in a cute squirrel mug.”
Jessa: “Everyone loves a big fancy candle. Plus, get some decorative matches to... match.”
