HAPPY THANKSGIVING/BLACK FRIDAY, Y’ALL! I’ve seriously been enjoying my Thanksgiving break! I totally meant for this to get out to y’all by Tuesday, but then I realized I had the time to finish Riverdale and after a long Netflix binge, here we are! Anyway, some of y’all were asking for a gift guide for under $50 and here it is! Some of these things, I own myself and already love. Some of these things are on my wish list! This gift guide is perfect for any girlfriend you have; your mom, your sister, your work bestie, your real bestie, your mentee, your mentor, your supervisor…anyone (Omg…this list totally needs a candle. Dang, well make that number 15 on the list!)! Alright, let’s get gifting! 
ONE: .Pioneer Woman 6 qt Country Garden Portable Slow Cooker.
Unless you’re not a total instagram creep (like yours truly), you know I got married this past March to my high school sweetheart. I received this beauty as a gift and have to report my love for it! I LOVE making chilis, stews, and shredded chicken with this baby! This is a great gift for any new or soon-to-be wives on your list this season, or even for your mom (mine, has offered to take this one off my hands a time or two!). I also believe that Wal-Mart has similar prints to this one on sale this Black Friday!
TWO: .Make Up Revolution Newtrals 2 Palette.
This fall, I loved a sunset eyeshadow look. I am no make-up expert, so buying palettes for me is sometimes a toss-up. This is a palette you cannot PASS UP, as it is only $7. This is a great gift at a stocking stuffer price! There are 10 different palettes to choose from, so give your friends/little sister something they’re comfortable with OR something to be more daring with! For $7 we can all afford to be a little daring! 
THREE: .BP Black/Brown Crossbody Bag.
EEK! This is on sale for under $30 right now! BP, if you’re not familiar, is Nordstrom’s trendy, yet affordable, brand. This crossbody is exactly that, trendy and affordable. Every girl needs a classic black crossbody but with the gold hardware and tassels, this bag is also great for a night out! I had a purse like this in college, and the zipper pouch was awesome for keeping important things (like my money!) safe. Give this to your roommate…maybe with #2 inside to initiate a GNO?
FOUR: .Barefoot Dreams Blanket.
This blanket has been on my wish list for a while now. I REALLY want the famous Kardashian Blanket in the White Leopard Print, but this will totally suffice and is more within my budget. These blankets are supposed to be buttery soft, and since I keep my house as cold as possible, I think I really need it! Get this for anyone along with a bag of popcorn, snacks, and their favorite Christmas Movie for a Christmas Movie Night!
FIVE: .Kendra Scott Danielle Earrings.
CURRENTLY ON SALE! It is my personal belief that any Southern girl over the age of 15 needs a pair of Kendra Scott earrings. These earrings, with the white ‘mother of pearl’ stone will make any outfit POP! Also, Kendra Scott is quite the philanthropist, herself. Check your local store’s calendar to see if a charity you are interested in supporting is having a fundraiser- Kendra will give back 20% of your purchase to that charity/organization. I mean, what’s better than giving? GIVING TWICE!
SIX: .Monogram Mug.
This gift is a classic! Everyone loves a monogrammed coffee mug. For us coffee lovers, it is a subtle way of stating, “MINE” before you’ve finished your first cup of the day! Ha! Give this to your work bestie! She’ll love you for it!
SEVEN: .Stemless Wine Tumbler.
I love this wine tumbler. I mean, I’m sure it’s not just for wine, but I love the idea of it being for wine. This cute tumbler is perfect for Christmas Eve night when you’ve had too many tamales and have been laughing too hard with your cousins for too long…Oh, just me? I love this gift because it’s something I would never buy myself, but would love so much!
EIGHT: .Leopard Apple Watch Band.Fitbit Blaze Leopard Band.
BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH THE LEOPARD BAND! I’m sorry, that’s where my mind went with that. Haha! I have a whole post related to why I love this band, and it seriously is such a game changer for such a good price! Get it for your fashionably athletic friend!
NINE: .Yeti Coffee Mug Tumbler.
I have a confession: I typically have at least two drinks on me at all times: Coffee and Water. 3/14 gift options in this guide are used to hold drinks…I’m aware of the problem…I think it’s great!
How cute would this tumbler be for your friend who is a mommy and has to feed her toddler/infant in the middle of her morning coffee? It’ll keep her coffee/tea warm and allows her to be on-the-go! This could also be a great gift for a student who has to move from study location to study location, but loves the feel of a real mug! A university library sometimes feels like home come finals time!
TEN: .Red Western Booties.
I have these booties in black already, but I think Red is such a great and unexpected addition to any closet. These booties dress-up my black skinnies easily! The heel also isn’t unbearable! Your sister will love these, and if you’re the same shoe size, so will you!
ELEVEN: .Winter Pajamas.
Featuring the lyrics of one of my favorite Christmas songs, this pajama set is a must-have. Everyone can appreciate a great pajama set, and if I’m not mistaken, the top to this set may even double as a top for Christmas Day lounging with the fam. What do you think?!
TWELVE: .Kate Spade ‘heart of gold’ Bangle.
This pic is super-sized because this gift is meant for a girl with a heart of gold! For me, I have my work bestie, mom, or sister on the list for this gorgeous bangle. The message on the inside is so special, and it is a gentle daily reminder to whomever you gift it to of how special they are.
THIRTEEN: .Naked Cherry Palette.
Do you have any of the other NAKED palettes? If you do, you know how good these palettes are. Like I said earlier, I’m loving a sunset look with some reds and oranges. This palette has a few more pinks in it! This gift is definitely a little more luxe, but you can’t fight the value of a great palette.
FOURTEEN: .TULA Skincare.
Last but not least, is my favorite skincare line EVER! TULA has changed my skin’s health for the better the last few years. The gift of great skin is probably one of the best gifts to give a girlfriend! This set costs only $24 AND right now everything on the Tula site is 25% off! Don’t think twice about it!!
I am so glad I was finally able to get this post out to y’all! I hope you’re able to find something nice for your girlfriends! So many of these items are on sale right now, and I highly recommend you take advantage of these sales, girl! Hope you enjoyed your turkey yesterday and your shopping today! Thanks for reading!
