10 Advent Calendars for Adults – Holiday 2021

September 15, 2021 · In: Gift Guides, Lifestyle

I know, I know – it is only September! But hear me out, the holidays will be here before we know it. Additionally, I think we could all use a head start on holiday shopping. It’s better than scrambling to get everything at once and finding that the “hot item” of the season is sold out!

I’ve done this post in the past and it has always been a big hit. So I hope you enjoy this year’s finds. Who says advent calendars are just for the kids? Don’t forget to shop sooner rather than later – these will sell fast!

No7 Beauty Wizard of Oz 12 Days in Emerald City Beauty Calendar

This definitely isn’t your traditional holiday themed advent calendar – but if you or someone you know is a beauty lover and/or a The Wizard of Oz lover, this would be perfect!

The Popcorn Factory Holiday Popcorn Advent Calendar

Yummy! Edible advent calendars are the best, especially with this unique popcorn twist. This would be great for adults, kids, or the whole family!

L’Occitane Signature Holiday Advent Calendar

Anyone else feel like this is one of the original “adult” advent calendars? Though it comes with a bigger price tag, their products are known for being top notch. PLUS right now, their Amazon store has it listed for only $74 (normally $115+).

Williams Sonoma Harry Potter Candy Advent Calendar

For all of my Harry Potter lovers! This advent calendar is filled with candies you’ve seen in your favorite books and films and have always wanted to try.

Uncommon Goods Holiday Scratch Off Advent Calendar Playlist

This is such a unique idea! The record has 25 scratch off spots, each one revealing a QR code. When you scan the QR code, your device will download a holiday song sung by an up-and-coming artist! I love that it not only helps new artists, but it is also made in the USA.

McCrea’s Handcrafted Caramels Advent Calendar

I know chocolate is typically in an advent calendar. But consider mixing things up this year with a caramel calendar! This advent calendar is made by a small business in the USA.

Palais Des Thés 24 Days of Tea Advent Calendar

For all of my tea lovers out there! This would be a great way to either start or end your day leading up to Christmas.

Harry & David Advent Cookie Calendar

A Christmas cookie calendar? Sign me up!

Hasbro Board Game Sock Advent Calendar

I think the idea of the sock advent is great, but I do feel like it is becoming overdone! However, the idea can still be fun if you find new and exciting themes, like this Hasbro one. Others that have caught my eye are this Gudetama one and this Nintendo one.

Godiva Chocolatier Holiday Gourmet Chocolate Advent Calendar


If you want to stick with a traditional chocolate advent calendar, consider indulging in the Godiva advent calendar.

I hope this inspired you for the upcoming holiday season! Be sure to sign up for my email list down below – I’ll be making another advent calendar post just for the kids that you won’t want to miss.

Cheers!

💫My Short Review of Epic Universe💫 *as a Dis 💫My Short Review of Epic Universe💫

(blog post & YouTube video coming soon)

‼️TLDR: Overall it was as chaotic as I expected so I was neither impressed nor disappointed. However I’m unsure how things will suddenly be running smoothly at the opening that’s just 2 weeks away.

✨I’ll start with our highlight which was mainly Super Nintendo World! I was a big Nintendo kid so this was very anticipated for me. While the rides were meh the land is extremely immersive. I do wish we had more time to explore the games you can play with the power up bands! 

🍔As for food we didn’t eat a ton but had lunch at Oak & Star Tavern (BBQ) which was much better than I expected! Not the best theme park food I’ve ever had but definitely better than anything I’ve had at Universal in the past. We also got a frozen melon apple drink in Nintendo that was perfect for a hot day!

🐉Isle of Berk was cool overall but for such a niche IP I wasn’t really interested. The one ride we rode in the land - Hiccup’s Wing Gliders - ended up being our favorite!

🧟‍♂️Dark Universe was a tad underwhelming. I was really looking forward to it but it didn’t really do it for me. At night it was cool but the ride wasn’t as good as I was expecting. I’ve heard quotes that this is the “most technologically advanced ride in the world” and that’s simply not true. However the ride wasn’t as scary as I thought it would be!

🇫🇷Magical Paris was neat despite me not being a Harry Potter fan. It really felt like Paris! However the lack of attractions there is a huge problem. 

🎢Despite it being technical rehearsals to me does not justify the amount of rides that were either completely shut down or broke at some point. Only 2 attractions in the entire park had zero issues all day. We rode 4 attractions since everything else was closed (2 would’ve caused motion sickness). I don’t see how these will magically be working in 2 weeks. The closures caused long wait time and chaos in every aspect. At opening they had no system for filtering people into queues in a reasonable manner. Something Disney figured out decades ago. 

Glad we went and experienced something new! #epicuniverse

Spring has sprung🌸 I snagged this iconic tweed Spring has sprung🌸

I snagged this iconic tweed jacket from @lillypulitzer most recent sale and I’m obsessed - I got the matching dress and can’t wait to wear it as a set💚 

I’m also loving this belt from @jmclaughlin 🤍 As someone who struggles to find belts curated to my style when I saw this I fell in love. I finally snagged it in Newport Beach a few weeks ago and I’m obsessed! It truly elevates every look👏🏼
