This year, I decided to switch it up and put together a gift guide that’s not about practicality. Not the gifts you need, but the ones that make you feel something: sexy, decadent, cozy, and feminine.
The things you buy for someone you adore. Or for yourself, because let’s be honest, you deserve one beautiful thing that makes you feel held and desired.
Please don’t forget to take care of yourself this holiday season! This time of year can be magical and stressful in equal measure. Sometimes the smallest indulgence brings us back to ourselves.
This is my list of absolutely-not-essential-but-100%-worth-it gifts:
The Stillness Candle Set
A candle set that turns lighting a match into a ritual. The scents are layered, sensual, and meditative, perfect for someone who wants their home to feel like a sanctuary.
The Glass Cigar Tea Infuser
Truly one of the most gorgeous tea accessories I’ve found. It feels like an object from an old-world apothecary: elegant, a little witchy, and the perfect gift for a tea lover who already has everything.
Washable Silk Lace Cami & Short Set
Romantic, feminine, and unabashedly sexy. This is not a practical gift, and that’s exactly why I love it. Perfect for someone who wants to feel beautiful just for themselves.
Acqua Della Regina Eau de Cologne (Firenze 1221 Edition)
A historic fragrance that somehow reads both royal and rebellious. Clean, crisp, citrusy, and timeless. A perfect signature scent for someone who loves classic elegance with a twist.
Washable Silk Wide Leg Pant PJ Set
The dreamiest, chicest, softest pajama set. Glamorous enough to wear while hosting a holiday cocktail hour, but comfortable enough for actual sleep.
Silk Magic Pillowcase
If you’re going to upgrade one thing in your bedroom, let it be your pillowcase. This one feels like sleeping on a spell: smooth, cooling, and magic for your skin and hair.
Costa Brazil Vela Jungle Candle
This candle is a whole experience. Earthy, lush, hypnotic. It transforms whatever room it’s in. It’s the kind of gift people remember long after the wick burns out.
Wishing you a season filled with beauty, rest, and little sparks of joy.
All my love,
Vanessa

A weekly voicenote from me to you. Sometimes deep, sometimes ridiculous, always human. Think of it like the kind of voicenote I’d leave my best friend—the messy, unfiltered version of me, saying the things we don’t usually say out loud. Now I’m sending them to you.
