Philadelphia Holiday Gift Guide 2020

Happy almost December, you guys! We have been absolutely so busy right now with the move, but we are making progress, and that’s been very encouraging! I am really excited to celebrate the holidays in our new home. We rearranged the living room last night and decided where we’ll put our tree – I am ready for some festivity!

But on to the reason you’re all here! My Philly gift guides used to be some of my favorite posts to put together, so I am thrilled to resurrect the series this holiday season. There’s only a ladies guide this year – so hopefully I can work back up to both some time in the future. 🙂

I am really excited to share this list of 22 Philly-themed gift ideas. We all know, shopping local is so important right now, and many of these businesses sell through Etsy or their own online shop, as well as local shops and markets, so you can shop wherever your comfort level is. I am also proud to include many female and Black-owned businesses this year – we have so much talent in our area.

A lot of these businesses are running sales right now, but the prices I listed are all their full price (so you’ll be pleasantly surprised upon click through!). Enjoy your shopping this season, and I obviously won’t tell anyone if you pick up one (or a few) of these for yourself! 😉 And now, on to the gifts!

1. Philadelphia Ribbed Thermal – Serendipity: Serendipity has shops in Chesnut Hill, Doylestown, and Avalon, and I fell in love with this thermal as soon as I saw it. Perfect for WFH weekday life or as a beach cover-up. $49

2. Las Vegas Collection Braided Headband – Bellefixe: New Philly-lady businesses with insanely high-quality products. You’ll love everything you get. $16

3. Cocoa Body Cream – UrbanGirlSudz: 655 sales and literally 5 stars on Etsy?! You love to see it. Shop owner Eloise has tons of products available at big discounts, but these body creams look amazing! $15.99

4. Orchid Waxed Canvas Buckthorn Craft Knitting Tote Bag – tanneicasey: These bags look so well made and the perfect present for the crafty knitter in your life. I think this would look really nice to wear, filled with yarn or not! $60

5. Goddess Candle – PhillyCandles: I did honestly gasp when I saw these. The female body. Gold. Made in Philly. They’re incredible, unlike anything I’ve seen before, and I’ll definitely be picking some of these up for myself. $12

6. Down the Shore Stemless Wine Glass – Occasionette: I love everything from Occasionette, Sara is a master curator. They have shops on East Passyunk and in Collingswood so you can thank the friend that let you stay at their shore house all summer. $14

7. NJ or PA Zip Code Ornaments – Destined Goods: I hosted a giveaway earlier this year with Destined Goods, and Mark was so great to work with. His products are truly the highest quality, and I love these zip code ornaments for friends who may be celebrating the holidays in a new home 😉 so much! $25

8. Queen Crew – LFB Apparel: Tiffany launched her shop not too long ago, and she is constantly putting out new styles you and your friends will love. $44

9. Personalized Photo Candles – MyMindfulMemories: Another great, personalizable find from a local Philly Etsy. I love that you can make this candle special for practically any person in your life. $25

10. Made in Philly Cheesesteak Iron-On Patch – Pinadelphia: For your friend that decorates her demin jacket or bag, get her the most Philly patch there is, so she can show off her city wiz wit. $8

11. Gold Chain Bracelet – JulesSociety: I was so excited when I found this “modern jewelry with an edge” shop. It’s jam-packed with gold pieces that will add to any sophisticated stack. $48

12. The Small Away We Go Pouch in Green Jungle Print – FatFatGoose: Am I a sucker for a nice print and a hair accessory? Some may say. All products at this shop are designed and sewn right in Philly. $48

13. Green Shadow Plaid Wool Blanket – American Trench: When the Woolrich, PA Woolen Mill closed, the team at American Trench (located in Ardmore), took the drive to buy some wool on clearance. They found one roll of this gorgeous plaid and made a *limited* number of blankets. $129

14. Philadelphia Eagles Long-Sleeve T-Shirt – Tailgate: You guys loved the last time I shared these stylish Philly sports options, so I had to include. Tailgate stocks tons of Philly gear for both men and women – and they’re cuteeee. $39.95

15. Fishtown “Official Beverage” Ornament – Jawnaments: Between a PPA parking ticket, Stock’s pound cake, or the East Passyunk manhole cover, you *will* find something very Philly-special to add to someone’s tree this year. $15

16. HD Glamour Curl Iron Set by Hair Diaries: Asia has her own extensions line, but extensions are definitely a gift you pick out yourself. 🙂 Her curling irons work on all hair types and give so many options for styling! $79.99

17. The Philly Tarot Deck – James Boyle: One of the new true classic Philly gifts that will always be a crowd pleaser. Not into tarot? James also sells prints of some of his stunning cards. $40

18. The Perfect Terrarium – Potted Perfection: Small Black-owned local biz that normally focuses on larger landscaping projects put together this gift offering just for us: a custom terrarium! Each will look different and unique. DM them to order on Instagram, pickup in Bryn Mawr or delivery available. $50

19. Red PHL Baseball Hat by Ali’s Wagon: Located right in Fairmount, you can shop Ali’s Wagon online or in store. This hat is the perfect accessory for your friend who knows how to put a lewk together at sports games and festivals. $35

20. South Philly Cleaners Tee – SouvenirAndFar: I am so excited to learn more about this shop and owner Brittany, because these shirts are *so* well-designed. Your South Philly friend is going to love this. $25

21. Holiday Scratch Offs – PA Lottery (sponsored): A very Philly addition to any holiday gift this season, throw on one (or all) of the six holiday-themed scratch offs from the PA Lottery. $1 – $20 (plus: coupons here!)

22. Boho Fringe Dusty Rose Earrings – She Was Blue: You will have a hard time deciding which of Allison’s jewelry pieces you like best. Everything is top quality and so beautiful, but these earrings are my favorites. $25

Good Day Philadelphia

HP on the Gram

Tonight was the best feeling of trying something n Tonight was the best feeling of trying something new. ⛳️ (I’m now looking up golf puns and I love how many have the word “putter” in them. 🥹🖤). 

My gal pal @calisonx and I took a ladies beginner golf clinic at @linwoodcc tonight. We both had absolutely never played golf past mini golf on the boardwalk… so this was fun & new. The late summer weather was simply stunning & on top of that, our class included THREE glasses of wine. 😅🍷

It was fun to get a new outfit (duh) and be in a social place that’s not a bar. My dad thinks this is where I will meet my future husband so let’s all send me some good vibes for that. 😉

I’m excited to take another class & learn more. 🏌🏻‍♀️Are any of you golfing girls? Would love to hear your tips on how to get into it (and/or meet your husband at the golf course.) 😉

What a gorgeous Philly evening to welcome three Je What a gorgeous Philly evening to welcome three Jersey gals for a little theatre (thanks to @kimmelculturalcampus!). My mom, sister, and I met to see @thelionking at @academymusicphl and it was simply *phenomenal.* 

We both found quick weeknight after 5pm parking at nearby lots ($16!) and had time for dinner & @vanleeuwenicecream before the play. 

The show is better than you could ever expect - the actors are just so talented (especially young Simba & Nala! The best part was watching the little kidsss enjoy it, too (three little boys in front of us were raising their Simba doll merch up at the end- so unreal 🥹). The show is so worth seeing while it’s here (now through 9/10!). 

A huge thanks to @kimmelculturalcampus for the beautiful Philly night out. 🖤

We ate a delicious lunch at @capitoline_ap. We had happy hour drinks at @lovehomesick & @thewonderbarofficial and just bebopped til we dropped on yesterday’s gorgeous August day. 

I was wearing this @eloquii x @nuuly bright orange romper and definitely got a new photo for my @bumble (thx @linnybrice 😘).
