EDITOR'S NOTE
Our VP of Commerce recently told me about the concept of a “Holiday Pre-Season,” aka the time after Halloween but before Christmas, in which you’re getting in the cozy spirit of it all. Sounds obvious, but I’m buying in. Here are a couple of holiday-related things my team is excited about:
Poppi’s Holiday Bundle. Cranberry Fizz is one of our all-time favorite flavors. This year, they’ve launched Ginger Fizz. We’re buying both in this limited-edition bundle. It’s the best 3 pm work beverage this time of year.
Anthropologie’s Holiday in the City Mugs. I just bought this mug of my hometown covered in adorable decorations. Hot drinks taste better this way, I don’t make the rules.
Voluspa’s Noble Fir Garland Candle. A classic Christmas-tree scented candle. No notes.
Old Navy’s High-Waisted Cozy Rib Pajama Pants. The closest dupe I’ve found of the very-expensive Cozyland PJs (at a fraction of the cost).

BaubleBar’s Custom Event
The accessory retailer’s best sale of the year is back.
BaubleBar is offering 25% off all of its custom products until November 16. Which means if you have holiday shopping or bachelorette planning to do, or just want to treat yourself (same), you need to shop the sale. The discount will automatically apply at checkout, so all you have to do is pick your favorites. Here’s everything we’re buying:
A non-cheugy monogrammed tote that’s going viral right now. We’re eyeing the mini size.
The mirror selfie-friendly phone cases everyone knows and loves.
This custom cord bracelet that looks way more expensive than it is. Pick a color, then add their name (or yours).
