Gift Guide: Hostess Gifts, Thanks for Coming.
Follow
Ugly sweater party season is upon us. I am fortunate enough to have wonderful friends who know better than to invite me to such a terrifying event. They also know a lot of other things, like how to throw great parties. One of the most gracious gifts friends can give us during the holidays is opening up their homes (whether a massive mansion or teeny studio) to host a festive get together. In a city like New York, friends fast become second families and there’s a reason things like “Friendsgiving” exist. Something my mother taught me from the time I was invited to slumber parties was to never arrive empty handed. I diligently practice this form of social etiquette to this day and always arrive bearing gifts, whether they be basic bottles of wine or a bags full of glowsticks. I never arrive unannounced or empty handed and to ensure that you will be invited to next year’s fete, I suggest you do the same (and avoid using your dinner napkin as a headwrap). Below are my picks for gifts to thank your generous hosts for having you this holiday season.
