5 Little Luxuries FOR GUYS ($25-$75) – Holiday Gift Guide 2018

November 1, 2018 · In: Gift Guides

Welcome back to my Holiday Gift Guide 2018! In this post I’ll be covering “Little Luxuries” for guys that are over $25 but under $75. These arejust examples of things I know the guys in my life would enjoy, but I hope you find some inspiration as well!

 

1. NES Classic Edition – This little guy came out last year and I unfortunately couldn’t snag it fast enough for my guy. Grant LOVES Nintendo, and despite having the real original Nintendo he really wants this one. You may be thinking, “Aren’t gaming systems expensive?” Yes! But this one is only $59.99 AND there are dozens of preinstalled games including favorites like The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros., and Donkey Kong. It comes with one controller and you can buy additional ones for $10. These are available on Amazon as well as in-store at Target and Best Buy!

2. Black & Decker Drill Project Kit – This is a great gift for the younger guy in your life who still may be trying to figure things out. For some reason my boyfriend doesn’t have a drill or a set of tools. And trust me, we could’ve used some by now. In my opinion this a great starter kit at a great price! My Dad has used Black & Decker for years and it is a great value for your dollar. There are two versions of this kit – one with a 8V drill (just under $50) & one with a 12V drill and 2 screwdrivers (shown above just under $60). In my opinion you can’t go wrong with either!

 

3. Jack Black Skin Savior Set – Let’s be honest, most men won’t typically spend money on their outward appearance. Especially not on something like a skincare routine. This starter set by Jack Black is perfect for getting a guy started in self care. This set is only $35 and includes a facial cleanser, facial moisturizer, lip balm, and and energizing scrub. Jack Black is a brand my Father has used for years and loves, so you can’t go wrong! Does the guy in your life have a beard and treat it like his first born child? Maybe try this Jack Black Beard Grooming Kit, which is also $35.

4. 6-in-1 Emergency Auto Tool – Definitely an unconventional gift, but I think this is pretty neat for the gadget lover in your life. This little guy is only $30 but VERY powerful! This is a great gift for men & women alike, and even teenagers driving on their own. This gizmo is equipped with a seatbelt cutter, glass breaker, emergency alarm, whistle, flashlight, and a tire gauge. This definitely isn’t a gift that will get daily use, but it is a great item to keep in your glove box. Safety first!

 

5. Mark & Graham Leather Money Clip Wallet – I’ve always thought it was so classy to give personalized gifts. And this wallet is a gift a man can cherish for years. This runs for $49 but the monogram is $9.50, also there are two colors to choose from. Mark & Graham is a great place to look for gifts to personalize and they have beautiful leather goods. However I know money clips are pretty hit or miss when it comes to different guys, so here’s another option.  This wallet is $69 which is under the budget, but the monogramming does cost $9.50 making it over $75. However the monogram isn’t required, of course, and there are a variety of colors offered!

 

So there’s my list of 5 Little Luxuries for guys! If you enjoyed my post make sure to subscribe to my email list to stay updated on my latest posts. Also leave me a comment telling me your favorite item you would want to give or receive from this list. And feel free to share your ideas for Little Luxuries in the comments!

 

xoxo Jayme

    I need to get the gaming system for my boyfriend! He would absolutely love it! Plus I’d play along too so it’d be a gift for both of us!

    I’ve never seen an auto tool that looked so masculine yet cool, I feel like I need one for myself (and maybe I’ll let my husband share!)

    The 6 in 1 emergency auto tool kit is a great gift idea for someone your not sure what to get because it’s something everyone should have in their car.

While this Christmas photo looks different than pl While this Christmas photo looks different than planned this year, I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas surrounded by peace and love🫶🏼

My prayer is that next year brings the blessings we hoped and prayed for this year, whether those things are big or small.

I’m so glad we decided to take a pit stop at @mo I’m so glad we decided to take a pit stop at @morganjuliadesigns brand new Jersey City location on our way home from NYC🫶🏼 This only added about 20min to our trip which was well worth it!🪡 Such a beautiful shop with so many great canvases👏🏼

Some tidbits from our trip as a NYC first-timer🚕
 
We stayed at @omniberkshirenyc - overall we enjoyed our stay! The location was perfect (right in between 5th Ave & Madison Ave) and was a short walk to Rockefeller and Central Park. Only complaint is that the rooms were very hot (75*+). They also had valet parking that we utilized. We drove into the city and while time consuming it wasn’t as stressful/difficult as we had imagined. I’d certainly drive in again.

Our highlights were @therockettes and walking through Central Park. We walked everywhere with the exception of a boat ride we did. We booked a car through RideLux for that which I do not recommend, about equal service to Uber for 2x the price. 

The boat ride with Classic Harbor Line felt like it wasn’t worth the $100/pp price tag. Seeing the Statue of Liberty up close was neat, but that was about it. Also, if you get sea sick CHL is NOT for you! 

Shopping overall was underwhelming, but we did hit the classic FAO Schwarz which regardless of the long line this time of year was a must-do! We got there 10min before opening and only waited about 10min after opening to get in. 

As for dining we did some quick spots around the city including Springbone Kitchen - perfect for a fast casual but healthy meal - we did pick up and took it to our room! Ralph’s Coffee in UES was also on my must-do list and honestly it didn’t disappoint! I’ve been to the Paris and NYC locations now and both times it’s been delicious and the perfect drinking temperature, even if you do have to wait a bit. For dinner we got a same day reservation for BG at Bergdorf’s - the food and service were great and reasonably priced imo!

I’m so happy we got to experience NYC at Christmas as it’s been on my bucket list my entire life! I love a trip filled with firsts, since they’re what make lasting memories!✨

✨48hrs in NYC✨ Somehow at 27 I had still never ✨48hrs in NYC✨
Somehow at 27 I had still never been to NYC until now🌃 I’ve always dreamed of going to NYC as a little girl, especially at Christmas! Today dreams came true with a visit to Radio City Music Hall to see @therockettes and it did not disappoint👏🏼 I’ll be sharing more tidbits from my trip over the next few days🚕

*also brownie points to whoever can tell me where this iconic townhome is from😉*

30 hours at the most festive place on earth🏰🎄

We booked this trip after my miscarriage so we could get out of town, even just for a night, and embrace ourselves in holiday magic✨ While nothing will take away the pain and heartache, distractions help the days pass faster🤍

Next week we’re off to NYC for a few days full of firsts!🚕 Defintiely nervous but excited for this bucket list trip✅
