Pro Tip: Madewell's Gift Guide Has the Best Fashion Finds—Shop My Top 16 Picks
Sponsor Content Created With Madewell
I know a thing or two about finding fashionable items that make perfect holiday gifts, and classic, cold-weather staples that my friends and family will wear often are a recipe for success. This includes everything from cozy turtleneck sweaters and bouclé overcoats to chunky gold stud earrings and leather loafers. And the secret to securing all these must-have items in one easy swoop is to use Madewell's online gift guide. After browsing through a slew of stylish clothing and accessories, I picked 16 items that not only make top-tier presents but that I'll also add to my own wardrobe without hesitation. (Pro tip: Some of these styles are eligible for Madewell's 30% off Black Friday offer through November 15.) Take a look at my favorites below.
