While you’re out and about, there’s no law saying you can’t pick up a little something for yourself, too. Note: I’ve included items that caught my eye, but there’s a whole lot more at every shop. I wasn’t price-sensitive, so please don’t whinge about how expensive something is or I’ll delete your comment.

STEVEN ALAN
••• Do you know how hard it is to find a backpack, like this Taikan one ($80), that doesn’t have those annoying flaps over the zippers? Plus, army green is always in style.
••• Knit hats make good gifts because they tend to fit ($98).
••• Chic meets comfortable: Demylee women’s sweater ($334).

·····················

GROWN & SEWN / RED WING HERITAGE
••• Nearly every man looks sexy in a Henley shirt ($68).
••• For all those folks who don’t carry cash anymore—and personalized foil stamping is available ($80).
••• Cotton ragg socks ($18).

·····················

BALLOON SALOON
••• The best part about these googly eye stickers might be the word “emergency” on the can ($10).
••• Mini Marquee ($20).
••• Color Smoke Balls ($3).
••• And best of all, the Prank Pregnancy Test, perfect for teenage girls who want to freak their parent(s) out ($9).

·····················

A UNO TRIBECA
••• Long gloves make winter glamorous ($130).
••• Tzuri Gueta’s sculptural rubber bracelets (lower one $275).
••• Slouchy knit hat ($85).
••• All the proof you need that women get the best hats ($175).

·····················

BOOMERANG TOYS
••• I asked what kids want this holiday season, and I was told Fingerlings, which Boomerang doesn’t currently have. In second place is Kid Robot stuffed cheesy puffs ($62). I asked what exactly a kid would do with the cheesy puffs: “Take them out and play with them.” Duh.
••• Also popular: “Anything unicorn.” I liked the Jellycat one at right the best ($33).

·····················

IBIZA
••• Silk scarves in vivid colors; the bright orange one is $48.
••• I seem to have a thing for hats this year; Michael Stars flat-top fedora ($68).

·····················

ONDA BEAUTY
••• Pair the Herbivore coconut milk bath soak ($32) with a candle ($39).
••• Pretty Fluorite bowl ($225).
••• The Self Care Set of crystals ($54) probably makes a better gift than the Sexual Energy one, unless you’re shopping for a frenemy.
