Philly Lady Gift Guide 2016

The ol gift guide strikes again! But today, it’s all about the ladies. Just in time for December shopping crunch time, I’m here to save the day with 10 of the best, local-based, Philly-made gift ideas for the Philly lady in your life. If you see something you’re into and need that extra *hint hint* to get your point across, share this guide! I know this cause/effect to be true, because I always end up getting some of these gifts each year from my thoughtful friends and fam, and I don’t hate it. Scroll down to get the deets!

Philly Lady Gift Guide 2016
1. Brian Giniewski’s Instagram is seriously one of my favorites in this city, so I had to include one of his gorgeous pots in this guide. It’s hard to choose a favorite, but I am currently loving this Powder / Denim piece. $49

2. A freakin cute gift for the Philly lady who’s recently moved and loves cooking and entertaining: this hot pink and wood trivet by Half and a Third (various stockists). $40

3. For your friend that needs a little green (and gold!) in her life, please get her The Copper Dino succulent planter from Philly’s new same-day flower delivery service, UrbanStems. Good for the ol last minute gift, too! $45

4. This bag though! For your lady pal who loves being fashion forward, this classic hip bag (aka the best fanny pack I’ve ever seen) from West Oak Design is the best gift. $60

5. Philly-based Etsy shop The Messinger is filled with so many cute and punny gift ideas. Scoop up a fancy floral koozie with your BFF’s initial for a thoughtful, personalized gift just in time for spring festival season. $10.20

6. Give her the gift of a unique piece of art from Philly fav, Two Paperdolls. I love how this Philly Series Print shows our city up top, in the middle, and down below – so cool for someone who’s on a decorating kick. $60

7. When I began putting this list together, I got multiple suggestions to feature Philly’s newest hair and skin line, Wilde Gatherings (1339 Frankford Avenue). Pick your gf up something she might not get herself, like this Energy Blend Aromamist. $21

8. Graphic tees speak to most (/all) ladies, and this one certainly spoke to me. Obsessed with the Bless This Mess Nachos Dolman Tee from Pyknic. You can scoop this baby (and many other local items) up at WorKS in Kennett Square. $29

9. These floral badge reels from The Path Less Raveled are truly the cutest gift you could give to lady coworkers. At least I hope this is true, because I just bought some for that exact purpose. $7.50 each

10. I spent forever looking through the freakin cool earring duos Night Owl Designs offers on their site. My favorites for a gift this year are obviously the the Meiser Brother pair (followed closely by Yukon Cornelius and Home Alone). $10

Oh! If you’re around tomorrow and looking for more gifts, check out my friend Rachel’s Holiday Maker Fair at WeWork Northern Liberties (1010 N Hancock Street)! It will be packed with tons of local Philly craftsters for your shopping delights. Hope you enjoyed this year’s Philly gift guides, and happy shopping! xx

Happy Valentine’s Day, my friends! 🥰 I have b Happy Valentine’s Day, my friends! 🥰 I have been trying to do more things as a single lady that I’d like to do if I had a partner. And also recognize all the things that make me a good partner. I’m okay being solo today (well, with Putter of course 😉), but I deserve some love today, too. So here’s my love letter to me. 🖤

Emily, I love how you never go somewhere new without researching the best spots. I love how you’re not afraid of color and all. the. prints. I love how close you are with your family. I love how you’re pretty funny (if you do say so yourself). I love how you try new things, even when they scare you. I love how you truly have experienced growth as an adult since going to therapy. I love how you discovered “I’m doing the best I can” is really good enough. And I love how you are starting to learn what you deserve. Let’s get it. 🖤

Come take a peek inside the brand new @thirdlove C Come take a peek inside the brand new @thirdlove Center City store! #MyThirdLove #ThirdLovePartner 

I was so excited to hear ThirdLove opened a store on Walnut Street because, as much as you guys knowwww I love a good online shop & try on, bras do give me a bit of pause when I haven’t been measured in store. The new Philly location gives us truly the best of both worlds. 

If you are looking for a reason to shop, ThirdLove is offering Her Philly gals 15% off with code EMILY15 - either in-store or online - now through 2/15! Get those Valentine’s Day goods! 😘

Keep watching to see my experience with my incredible fit stylists & which ThirdLove bras were my favorite. I know a lot of you are fans of the brand - any pieces I must try next?!
