Writing the infamous letter to Santa.
Getting my favorite sparkly pink pen.
Getting a lined piece of paper and the first words being Dear Santa.
Having my excitement go through the roof thinking about Santa giving me all I wanted and more.
That’s only one of the memories that many kids have during the Christmas season.
With Christmas comes wish lists.
People often share these wish lists on social media to inspire others.
This year especially, there are tons of popular options for a variety of aesthetics.
Whether you are making your own list or shopping for someone else, these are this year’s basics.
Popular gifts for high school boys this year are technology like a PS5 or Xbox, along with games for it.
Clothes like hoodies, shirts, pants and shorts.
Shoes like Jordans, Nikes, and Adidas.
Athletic guys may want sportswear and any type of ball for their select sport.
I know the guys I am friends with want jerseys to represent their favorite players and teams.
They could also want jewelry like a gold or silver chain.
Girls on the other hand want things like hoodies from brands like Gap, Dandy Worldwide, Lonely Ghost, and Cold Culture to name a few.
They also want jeans and jean shorts from Levis and Pacsun.
Girls who workout more could want workout sets from Alo and Lululemon.
Also makeup and skincare is big on girls’ wish lists this year.
With skincare coming from places like Glow Recipe, Tower 28, Drunk Elephant, and lash growing serum called GrandeLash.
Makeup from Patrick Ta, Rare Beauty, Charlotte Tilbury, and Saie.
Personally, on my list, I am asking for bags and clothes.
People also ask for perfumes and body mists.
Parents are harder to gift presents because they always say that they don’t want anything.
But there are always the tried and true gifts to give them this holiday season.
For your mom, you could give her a spa gift card, a pajama set, or pay for you and her to go out to breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
You could give your parents a night for themselves.
For your dad, any kitchen necessities, clothes, a gift card to their favorite clothes and food place.
The holiday season is not just about gifting but also about spending time with your loved ones. This Christmas, now that you have the perfect gifts for your family and friends, make sure to spend time with all the people you love and show how grateful you are.
Happy gift giving and happy holidays!
