2024 GIFT GUIDE: Alle's A-List + Cyber Week Sales

IT’S TIMEEEEEEEEEEEE (SCREAMED IN Mariah Carey’S VOICE)

No matter how early I work on my annual gift guide I always feel incredibly behind…but maybe that’s because we are used to seeing Christmas trees in Target the day after Halloween lol.

If you’re new here (WELCOME) this list is my version of Oprah’s Favorite Things. Around here, we like to call it Alle’s A-List. So as not to overwhelm you (I know that gift guides can be a lot), I like to put together one GIANT gift guide jam-packed with all of my tried and true favorite things that would make for the perfect gift for all the Gals in your life (and of course YOU too).

I’ve organized this list by who you’d be shopping for. You’ll find everything from ideas for the travel Gal Pal in your life to your Bougie Bestie and just about everyone in between. You’ll see quite a few repeats year after year, because there are certain staple gifts that never get old. But you’ll also find plenty of new inspo sprinkled throughout. PLUS you’ll find discount codes throughout the guide to make sure to keep an eye out for those!

It has always been my intention to include not only my favorite things but also recommendations at all price points from small, women, POC, and LGTBQ-owned businesses. You’ll find a mix of everything in this guide but if you’re looking to only shop small this year (GO YOU!), make sure to check out my Small Biz Holiday Shopping Guide.

As a reminder, this guide contains affiliate links. This means that if you purchase through my gift guide, I might earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. As a small woman-owned business, the income I earn through these links allows me to continue sharing these free guides & continue to run Alle Abroad. As always, I am so grateful for your continued support & I’m excited to introduce you to some of my favorite brands.

PS - If you see any incorrect links, shoot me a DM on Instagram and let me know :)

ALLE’S FAVORITE GIFTS FOR THE TRAVEL GAL PAL

Luggage Cart Ornament

Anthropologie is leaning HARD into the travel-themed ornaments this year & this luggage cart is the PERFECT one for the fabulous over-packer in your life (even if that’s you haha).

I’ve linked some of my other favorite Anthro travel-themed decor below. There are so many fun ornaments, puzzles, plates, etc.

A Gals Abroad Getaways Trip

This is a shameless plug I know… But I can’t think of a better gift than the gift of travel. If you or someone you love is looking to see the world with fellow like-minded women in 2025 and beyond give them the gift of a Gals Abroad Getaway (or offer to pay for a portion of their trip).

Every Christmas I ask my parents for one thing, money to put towards a future trip and this could be the year you do the same!

Beaded Pouch

If you’ve got a pal who loves to travel, this little pouch would be PERFECT. They have a few different destinations and outside of being practical these are super helpful for travel. I use these as coin purses when I’m in Europe.

On The Fly Travel Facial Kit

This is hands down the BEST skincare kit for keeping your face looking and feeling fresh and hydrated while you’re traveling. Patchology is my go-to place to snag sheet masks, under eye patches and anything else skincare related.

I’ve been traveling with my Away luggage for more than 4 years now and I cannot say enough great things about this brand. They are so durable, come in amazing colors, they roll like butter and I know I can depend on them to keep my goods safe while I’m traveling around the world.

They have tons of luggage sizes, tote bags, packing cubes, backpacks etc. And don’t forget to use my code below to get $20 off your order.

PS the entire site is 25% off

Sabina Fenn Travel Prints

Another Gals Abroad Getaways gift staple! Sabina is an artist based in Canada who creates these stunning travel prints for destinations around the world. They are the perfect gift for any gal who loves to travel and dreams of her next big getaway. Plus all of her prints pair well together so you can get a few to make a little gallery wall. She created two prints for our trips this year, this one of Puglia to the left & this one of the Cotswolds in winter!

Apple Airtags

This would be a great stocking stuffer for any travel lover. These are SO important if your suitcase gets lost while traveling. I have SO many friends who have used these to show the airline where their bag is when they deny they have it…

These are currently 26% off on Amazon!

Bluetooth Wireless Audio Transmitter

THIS IS A LONG-HAUL FLIGHT GAME CHANGER & ANOTHER GREAT STOCKING STUFFER.

For anyone who uses noise-canceling headphones on flights, this solves the problem of being able to connect them to the airplane TV.

Custom Travel Pouches

I am OBSESSED with this colorful, customizable accessories brand - Stoney Clover Lane! Their pouches, passport cases, luggage tags and backpacks make for totally unique gifts for the jet setter in your life! Especially because you can customize them to say anything! This is the company I used to make my Alle Abroad backpack!

Portable Power Bank

This might seem like a boring gift but honestly, it’s the gift that keeps on giving. This is one of the best & most powerful portable chargers I’ve ever owned. Plus these are essential for travel.

This is currently 30% off on Amazon!

Bucket List Book

The idea of crafting your bucket list can feel totally overwhelming, which is why many of us never even start one. That’s where this book comes in! The Bucket List book is filled with 1,000 adventures stretching across the globe and includes everything from walking along the Great Wall of China & truffle hunting with pigs in Italy.

I’ve taken to opening this book each day and randomly picking 1 experience to read about. If it sounds interesting, I add it to my Bucket List Journal!

TOPTOTE Hat Holder

I love my hats, but traveling with them can sometimes be a pain. But when you’ve got a TOPTOTE all your travel hat woes are solved. The powerful magnet clips onto the brim of the hat and attaches to your bag or suitcase. I never travel without mine.

Fujifilm INSTAX Mini Link 3 Smartphone Printer

IDK about you but I tried to jump on the polaroid camera bandwagon when they came back around but they kept breaking or I was never happy with the photos I took. This is the perfect solution. It’s a polaroid printer that connects to your phone so you can print the photos you capture there. That way the travel lover in your life can print their fav travel pics & make sure they’re actually GOOD lol.

My Bucket List Journal

I am a firm believer that if you don’t make a plan to achieve your goals, you never will. The same can be said about items on your bucket list.

This journal helps you do exactly that. The pages are organized to help you plan out 100 of your biggest bucket list dreams & journal about the experience when you complete them. This would be the perfect gift for a newly retired parent or anyone looking to plot out their dreams.

Airbnb Experiences

Airbnb experiences are my secret weapon on any trip. From booking tours, photographers, bar crawls, Airbnb has the most unique experiences. In 2020 they launched online experiences which means you can have an international experiences from anywhere in the world! A great group gift idea for the family!

Assouline Coffee Table Books

This is my all time favorite line of coffee table books. They’re colorful & a total statement piece. Plus each book features a different destination around the world so you can pick the place that fits the receiver best.

I’ve linked some of the other destinations they have below!

Tumi Voyageur Backpack

I’ve had this backpack for 4 years now and I really can’t say enough good things about it. Tumi truly knows what it’s doing and even though it’s a splurge, you’ll have it for years and it will truly stand the test of time. Plus it comes in a few different colors (which is something they just offered).

Also, some colors are on sale ;)

ban.do Getaway Passport Holder

By far my favorite place to snag colorful and memorable passport covers and luggage tags!

Vacation Signature Scent Duo

A perfume that smells like summer and vacation?! The PERFECT thing to gift the person in your life who is always jetting off somewhere warm and fabulous.

Noise Canceling Headphones

Anyone who gets these will LOVE you forever - especially travel lovers who don’t like to hear babies crying on planes ;)

No matter if you’re on a short flight or a long-haul flight the most essential item you can have is a pair of noise-canceling headphones.

I was a long-time Airpods pro gal (which are totally great) but these really changed the game and the battery lasts forever.

PS - they’re currently on sale!

The Reloader Reusable Film Camera

The retro photo trend is still going strong and this would be so fun to gift someone who’s about to head out on their next great adventure!

ALLE’S FAVORITE GIFTS FOR THE FASHION LOVER

Sleeper Feather PJs

If you are looking to splurge on a fancy pair of PJS I cannot recommend these Sleeper PJS enough (plus I found a few pairs that are on MAJOR sale).

I own them in pink & green but they come in a bunch of colors and the black pair could be a perfect chic going-out look.

Western Boot

Western boots are HUGE this year and the fashion lover in your life would LOVE these. They come in a ton of colors & even have wide calf and extra wide calf options!

I just snagged these in this color in the wide calf version and I’m obsessed!

Oh and did I mention they’re 40% off with code FRIDAY40!

Charm Necklace

Charm necklaces are having a moment! There’s no shortage of options but it would be fun to find one that has some charms that are meaningful to the person you’re gifting the necklace to!

Merino Wool Scarf Coat

For the fashionable girlie who is always cold. Merino Wool is SO warm! It’s what I always look for when selecting a good travel coat. This version comes in a bunch of colors - but I’ve got my eyes on this one.

Mongolian Cashmere Wrap

I am obsessed with Quince, which is this company that has ridiculously low prices on 100% cashmere and other great basics. Basically, they cut out the middle man, deliver straight from the factory and cut down on packaging. Which means amazing cashmere goodies at prices you actually don’t mind paying.

I snagged this cashmere wrap in black and I love their Mongolian cashmere sweater that comes in a bunch of colors and is on sale

PS - the wrap is 31% off ;)

Friendship Bracelets

For the Swifty in your life [IYKYK]. You can even make custom bracelets!

These are sunglasses worth splurging on. I’ve seen Linda eyeing mine and I’m thinking that she might find these under the tree for her this year.

They’re a New Orleans-based company and have quickly become my new favorite sunglass brand.

Rent the Runway Subscription

You all know I cannot live without my Rent the Runway subscription. I love that this service allows me to constantly swap in and out new clothes without the buyers remorse or skyrocketing credit card debt, lolz. Not to mention this is a sustainable way to enjoy the fashion industry.

ALLE’S FAVORITE GIFTS FOR THE COCKTAIL QUEEN

Around the World in 80 Cocktails

This has quickly become my go-to “thank you” or hostess gift for fellow travel lovers! And since it’s just over $15 I think it makes for a fantastically affordable gift! But if you want to take it over the top, it would be fun to pick a cocktail from the book and gift all the ingredients you need to make the cocktail + the book!

Barbell Barware Set

Jonathan Adler has the amazing ability to make ordinary items whimsical and fun - case and point this barware barbell set.

Martini Glasses

This color combo is giving MAJOR wicked vibes! This would be such a thoughtful gift for the Pal in your life who is ALWAYS ordering Espresso Martinis or loves a dirty martini.

They also have dog mom versions. There’s a bunch of different styles, colors and even different coloring on the pets to try and match your fur baby!

Honestly, more of a gift for you than the cats lol.

Pardon My French 1000 Piece Puzzle

ALLE’S FAVORITE GIFTS FOR THE PARENTAL UNITS

I gifted this to both of my parents two years ago and it’s such a fun way for them to write their own life story via a weekly email with question prompts for them to respond to. At the end of the year, all of their stories are bound in a book that your family will want to keep forever.

Rothy’s Driver

Linda LOVES her Drivers becuase they are such a great versatile shoe option - especially for travel! They come in a bunch of colors and the best part is they can be thrown in the washing machine to clean!

I recently turned Linda onto this brand and she LOVES their signature scent. Their holiday collection has 3 scents depending on your preference and I can’t say enough about how GREAT these candles smell.

REVELLE

This jewelry line was created by my sweet friend Ali Stone & her mom (we love a mom-daughter duo!). Their gorgeous, delicate necklaces make for the perfect heartfelt gift and pair perfectly with some of your favorite necklaces you have at home.

Their jewelry is high quality & comes in a range of prices and styles which makes them SUPER giftable (and you won’t feel guilty when you snag a few for yourself too!)

Julia Clancey Caftans & Turbans

By far one of my favorite designers - Julia Clancey is a color-loving, caftan-creating, turban-wearing queen!

PS - she makes the most epic sleep masks and turbans.

Find me a more fun, colorful & totally bad ass store…I’ll wait…LOL. Lost Girls is hands down the #1 place I shop for vintage items in Chicago. Outside of their vintage goodies, you’ll also find jewelry & accessories crafted by local artists & a plus size vintage line, Luvsick, that carries sizes 14-26. The shop was founded by two bad a$$ women and at the beginning run out of a winnebago LOL.

NOMAD Chicago

This woman founded, globally inspired shop is one of my favorite places to one of a kind, handmade goodies from around the world.

You’ll find everything from natural beauty products to Chicago neighborhood scented candles (yup that’s a thing). Plus next to each of the items you’ll find a card that shares more about where the product is from and the person who made it.

Estelle Colored Glass

I’ve had my eyes on these colored wine glasses for years and I love how you can mix and match colors & glass styles.

The company describes their pieces as “jewels for your table,” and was inspired by the founder’s grandmother, Estelle, who loved antiquing.

Olive Oil from Puglia Italy

When I was in Puglia earlier this year, one of my friends who is a famous cheesemaker told me about this olive oil that he carries in his shop.

This would be such a great hostess gift because honestly, you can never have enough QUALITY (that’s the key) EVOO.
