Bloggers Gift Guide: Marianne from Haven and Home

I hope you all have been enjoying all the guest posts this week from my favorite bloggers out in the blogosphere! I've definitely gotten some great ideas for Christmas gifts this season. Today, Marianne from Haven and Home is sharing her favorite picks. Her blog is one of my daily reads and I'm so thankful that I know and am friends with Marianne in and outside of the blog world! She is a fabulous interior decorator who has given me many helpful tips for my home, which I am ever so grateful for!


Thank you Sidney for having me on so.chic! I am thrilled to be here. When Sidney asked me to do a gift post I told her, "I think I am going to pick gifts for my family so I will have something to follow." Wellllllll, somehow this turned into gifts for me, oops! So here are some things I would love to find under the tree this year.
.
I love calendars, I love flipping to the next month and seeing the new image. This one from Night Owl Paper Goods, printed on wood sheets is so cool. It is a must have.

Ever walk out of a store to the panicky feeling you don't know where you left your car or is that just me? This device can be set to a certain place(like your cars location) and help you find your way back whenever needed.
A Garmin is on my list because it is one of the best gifts I have received. While I wasn't thrilled when I got it, it has been my new best friend ever since. I honestly can't remember what I did before I had one. Oh wait, yes I can, I would call my husband at work and ask him to Mapquest places for me because I was on the road. (can you guess who gave me this?)
Okay, I did pick out something for family, these cute bands from Etsy I would give to my adorable nieces.
.
I love mascara and I love choices, I think that sums up why this gift set from Sephora is on my list.
There are several boots on my list but these by Frye particularly call my name.

If you know me, you know I love dresses, they are basically my uniform. In the winter I am always looking for long sleeve dresses which can be hard to find. This one from Ann Taylor has a great fit and ruffles (which is always a plus in my book).

Thanks again Sidney!
