Holiday Gift Guide 2021: Designers' Top Picks
Holiday shopping for all the special people in your life is never an easy task. Browsing online for hours or wandering around a crowded retail store without any clear direction is the last thing you need during this busy holiday season. This year, we collaborated with leading designers in hopes of making shopping for those in your life a breeze. We've created plenty of gift guides to help you tackle your holiday shopping lists this season. We’ve made the lists and with the help of our designer friends we’ve checked it twice and brought you our top designer-approved gifts so you're sure to land on the perfect option for every special person in your life.
"I try to always personalize, not generalize gifts. I try to always think about who I am buying for and what their aesthetic is. My gifts are usually home related because that is what my people expect!" - Jill White

The Koff pillows are my personal favorite - and I will be showcasing the Cognac colorway in our show house in Snowmass, CO. " - Laura U
