5 Key Pieces: SECRET SANTA





It’s time for one of my favorite traditions of the year – SECRET SANTA!  Here at Les Mis we always do a company – wide Secret Santa and it’s so much fun.  I adore giving creative, unexpected gifts almost as much as I adore receiving them!  The key to being a great S.S is CREATIVITY.  I try to stay away from practical gifts and give little luxuries instead.  There are a plethora of fabulous finds within a budget – here is a list to get you started!

FOR THE BOYS:


There is a lot of down time on tour and what could be better than snuggling up in your hotel room to watch some epic TV?  I featured AMC's The Walking Dead but there are MANY sets you can find for CHEAP on Amazon!



This combines two amazing things - a cozy hoodie and your music.  You can bundle up and not have to worry about your headphones getting yanked out of your ears.  Brillz.




This is a major Christmas throwback - it combines one of my favorite childhood toys with today's technology.  So silly.


This plays to his inner rock-star AND it travels easily!  The speaker is actually super loud for those hotel room holiday keggers.


This is a fantastic book full of the INCREDIBLE graffiti by the gifted and elusive genius, Banksy.  Plus it looks cool on his nightstand in the hotel!


FOR THE GIRLS:


Fragrance is always an amazing gift and these can be stashed anywhere.  The fragrance is soft and feminine and perfect for everyone.  Delish!

This is the perfect topper for keeping your ears warm AND making your pin-curls look chic on a two show day.  It comes in a bunch of great colors and looks great on everyone. (I have the black one - I've modeled it below!)




This is a chic way to watch HBOGo on your iPhone without having to lean it up against something.  I love how feminine and pretty the angel wings are!

This will looks adorable on your dressing station and hold your jewels while you defend the barricade.  I love the clean, chic white porcelain - it matches with everything!
These make organizing your luggage a snap.  I adore how glamorous the lettering is - it gives them a wonderfully old school flare!


EXTRA CREDIT:
In addition to the great gifts featured above - I like to include some kind of silly item or delicious holiday treat - here are some of my favorites to give (and receive!)

These are a super fun holiday tradition and the paper crowns inside look amazing on everyone - perfect for silly holiday photos!

Always a crowd pleaser - these are perfect for a little post show toast.
I've loved these since I was a little girl and they are a fun gift to include in your SS package

I mean it's Vosges rich chocolate with PIECES OF BACON MIXED IN.  Die.

These are an exquisite little treat for your mouth.  Rich caramel and chocolate tastes sooooo good with that bite of sea salt on top.  Plus they come in a great little tin that is perfect for storing your bobby pins and wig caps!
HAPPY SECRET SANTA-ING!

XOXO
