1. The cable knit earmuffs look so cute and very warm. I HATE when my ears feel cold and since my hair doesn't stay styled easily with all the wet snow coming down, it's usually up in a bun. Earmuffs are perfect for any hair do, look cute, and have many options. A girl walking down the street had a black knit earmuff with a flower detail. I wanted it! (Asos)
2. I've noticed that most of our Swedish friends don't rely on the lights to keep things bright. This candle and holder are decorative and are bound to make the room glow and smell delightful. (Bath & Body Works)
3. These Hunter socks will turn any rain boot into a comfortable, warm, and stylish pair of winter boots. I love the knit detailing for winter! Toasty toes in freezing Sweden temperatures make me happy! (Nordstrom)
4. During the cold winter months, my lips get so dry. These Tarte moisturizing shades will improve your look and improve the health of your lips! (Sephora)
5. These gloves are a lot of fun. I saw a similar pair while I was out shopping today. I have a cream jacket and this pair of gloves would add an extra flair to my classic coat. (Kohl's)
6. I haven't seen these anywhere really in the States, but this is an extremely cute accessory. I actually picked one up myself today. Not all watches work for me because I have extremely small wrists, this watch ring is adorable and fits just right! Doesn't hurt that it doesn't break the piggy bank either! (Amazon)7. As I mentioned in my Swedish Style Trends, leggings are a staple in ladies closets. These velvet Vera Wang leggings are dressy and would look hot with some over the knee boots and a flowy blouse. (Kohl's)
8. I couldn't help myself. I had to add another pair of Hunter socks. The animal print is very cute and subtle. You don't want to over do animal print or you'll look like you're Jersey Shore bound. (Works for them but not most). (Nordstrom)
9. Scarves are a beautiful necessity here! This black and white scarf has a eye catching design and will keep your neck protected from the winds. The model even looks Swedish! (Nordstrom)
10. Last on my list is something on most women's lists here: Thomas Sabo of course! I hope to add this red lipstick charm to my collection before I move back to the States. (Thomas Sabo)
Happy hunting to all you shoppers still looking for Christmas! Hope these Swedish gift ideas will help you with some winter essentials....
and maybe some not so essentials.
