If you don't want to show up empty-handed, there's one retailer we can always count on when shopping for someone else. Enter: Nordstrom. Whether there's an upcoming birthday, holiday (like Valentine's Day) or you're simply looking for a "just because" present, there's no shortage of fashion, beauty and home gifts for everyone on your list. For our What to Shop This Week series, Shop TODAY contributor Chassie Post previously stopped by Studio 1A to share a few of her favorites for the winter season.
Giving the gift of comfort is priceless, and Post found several presents that overdeliver on the cozy front. For starters, there's a cloud-like bathrobe from BareFoot Dreams and a scalloped fleece scarf from Ugg (that literally has "fluff" in the name) — both under $100 if you're not trying to break the bank. Want to treat them to an at-home spa night? Bundle up a few cold-weather essentials — like barrier-protecting lip balms — in a brand-new cosmetic bag or dopp kit. And finally, the last thing this snuggly mix was missing was an ultra-plush blanket, and we're convinced that Post uncovered the softest throw in store.
We don't do it for the thank you notes, but expect one to come your way after gifting one of these thoughtful picks below!
Nordstrom gifts seen on TODAY
Post’s pick from Jack Black will help the guy on your list step up his self care game. With scents like hot buttered rum and mulled cider, this lip balm set is a one-way ticket to a winter village experience at home. According to the brand, the antioxidant-enriched formulas deeply condition your lips while protecting against windburn and extreme temperatures. Use them daily, or whenever you get that chapped feeling for instant relief. More than one gift recipient on your list? You can even break up the four-different balms — all for less than $20 right now!
Getting out of the shower is especially tough on those extra chilly mornings, but Post found a bathrobe that will actually make you look forward to it. This luxurious pick from Barefoot Dreams comes in six chic colors, features a removable sash and is even machine washable. Plus, it’s one of those presents that you might not splurge on for yourself, but are so grateful for when it’s gifted.
Wrap yourself up in warmth this winter with an ultra-fluffy find from Ugg. Post is great at picking accessories that are both fashionable and functional, and this fleece scarf is no exception. Whether you're heading out for a day of sledding or bundling up on the way to the office, you can easily dress it up or down.
In case you didn't know, Ugg offers so much more than just shoes and accessories! Post is a big fan of the brand's blankets, especially this extra-large plush pick. It can be thrown over the couch, on top of your bed or anywhere you could use a little extra coziness. Available in several bright and neutral colors, we don't blame you if you add more than one to cart.
Upgrading an essential is always a thoughtful gift, and Post found a makeup bag from Baggallini that accomplishes just that. Compact yet spacious, this cosmetic case features elastic brush loops, a front zipper pocket for grab-and-go items and a wipeable nylon body to keep things clean on the go. If you want to make this pick even more personalized, fill it with products you know your recipient uses!
Post found another highly-rated dopp kit from Herschel Supply Co. that is downright durable. From the waterproof zipper to the wipe-clean lining, your recipient will use this gift for years to come — and think of you every time they're traveling!
