No matter how early I start writing my gift lists, (and checking them twice) holiday shopping always feels a bit out of my control. Will I be able to get everything I want? Who did I forget? Did I get them this last year? To make holiday shopping a lot less of a drag, I always like to take a trip to the SoNo Collection in South Norwalk, Connecticut.

About 35 minutes from Westchester County, the SoNo Collection homes the best variety of stores. From Nordstrom to Bloomingdales, a full H&M Home store, Zara, Sephora, Abercrombie, and the Amazon 4 Star Store, you can easily check off everyone on your list!

The holiday experience at the SoNo Collection is also next level. During the month of December, there are a number of activations and events like the Holiday Bells Grove and HoHo SoNo. More details can be found below.

Yet sometimes even with all the right places and decorations, holiday shopping isn’t all that easy. Which is they I’ve created the SoNo Collection Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide for you! At the bottom of this post, you will also find a downloadable checklist to use for everyone on your list, to make your holiday shopping a breeze!

Gifts I Purchased and Gift Ideas:

Stocking Stuffers: You can find all the beauty stocking stuffers you need at Nordstrom and Sephora. For him, I love a gadget like a Fire Stick or wireless headphones from the Amazon 4-Star Store.

Gifts for Friends: I love doing small, thoughtful bundle gifts for my girlfriends. They’re really perfect for any woman in your life. I grabbed some slippers and cozy socks from Aerie and bubble bath bombs from Lush all for under $40. These are also great stocking stuffers!

Home Gifts: The H&M home store seems like the best-kept secret of the SoNo Collection. I picked up some paper ornaments to use napkin holders, that then can be take-homes for my next holiday dinner. The Amazon 4-Star store also has my coffee pot, if you know a coffee lover it’s the best machine around!

For Him: I love Ambercrombie for elevated basics. They have great more tailored sweatshirts for the guy in your life. I also picked up some men’s Kiehl’s skincare items and pajamas from H&M!

SoNo Collection Holiday Activations

One of the reasons I love going to the SoNo Collection is because they light up the space in holiday cheer. From the beautiful decorations throughout the Collection to events to enjoy (more on than below!), it feels like a bit of New York City right in your backyard.

Finally, we ate at La Picante and the food was soooo good. My mom and I split the crispy chicken wrap, perfect fuel for some more shopping. You can check out all the dining options here.
