The COOLS team spends a lot of time poring through the best and brightest of what’s in right now, so you better believe we’re on top of that holiday wishlist game. From Gucci fanny packs to the Vetements sock boots, here’s what we’re lusting after this holiday season.
*Bonus* After an article came my way about the most-watched Netflix shows of 2017, we agreed this list didn’t seem right (Who, for instance, has heard of Anne With An E?) To remedy this list, I conducted an informal survey around the office of what we were binging this year. Here’s what to curl up on your sofa and watch if you missed it because it’s too cold to do literally anything else right now.

For The Minimalist Magpie
Lusting after: “Since finding out that Santa wasn’t real at the ripe age of 15, Christmas has never been the same for me. It was tragic and shocking and a seminal moment in my adolescence that forced me to rethink this whole idea of gifting. Since then, I’ve toned down the material focus of the holiday and find fulfillment in spending quality time with family (cue heartwarming scene from The Grinch, singing carols around the tree). In the instance that Grandma needs some gifting guidance and won’t take “money” for an answer, I always have a running wishlist of classic, forever pieces at hand. And socks.” – Heartleigh Little, Editorial Director
