The Stocking Stuffers
Theater tickets, special sweets, and accessories to amp up any outfit: small gifts that make a big impression.

When it comes to holiday gifting, you don’t have to overdo it with ornate, expensive gifts to impress all of the loved ones on your list. After all: what could be better than receiving a stocking full of the best, bespoke finds that you absolutely need but wouldn’t ordinarily buy yourself?
That could mean a mix of the silly (a set of bright and bold Liana socks plus Emily Levine Milan’s Flower Power necklace) and the sentimental (Zebby Wahls’ Woman Playing Cards and tickets to Gloria: A Life). And you can never go wrong with an evergreen read like Cheryl Strayed’s Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life From Dear Sugar or a box of beautiful floral pressed cookies from Loria Stern. Then top it all off with a gift card from The Muse–because career coaching always comes in handy.
In short, the best gifts really do come in small packages.
