On the hunt for the best gifts in 2023? We’ve got you. As writers and editors, part of our job is to stay in the know with new launches and test products ourselves to see which ones are actually worth the hype. That also means that when the holiday shopping season rolls around, we know exactly what to gift our loved ones (and what to add to our own holiday wish lists). 

To spark some gift-giving inspiration, we turn to our own team to discover what they’re gifting this year – whether it's for themselves or thoughtful gifts for family and friends. From gorgeous fashion picks to practical gifts and everything in between, these are the goodies the Her World team has their eye on this year.
