The countdown to Christmas is well and truly on, and I know that for many, it also represents the number of sleeps they have left to wrap up their festive season shopping. So today, I’ve partnered up with Everlane to share with you a Christmas-themed edit; perfect for gifting to a loved one, or to treat yourself.

So below I’m going to run through a few of my favourites from the site which I think make great Christmas presents. I always find that some of the best Christmas presents are things that you love and own yourself, so I’m drawing from personal experience with the brand for these gift ideas. You can also shop a more visual edit at the bottom of this post.
If you’re looking at great stocking stuffers, then I really love these thick ribbed socks. These are super plush and thick – ideal for winter – and you can usually bet that they’ll come in handy. At least one sock is always getting lost in the “upside-down” (in our household, anyway…).
For a cosy gift to give, I love, love, love Everlane’s alpaca knit sweaters. These are a relaxed fit so you have some wiggle room on the sizing, and they’re just so soft. Above you’ll see the alpaca knit in the colour ‘almond’, but I have it in multiple colours. It’s one of my most worn sweaters in my closet. I’m also loving their newly launched diamond stitch sweater. I have this in the ‘light charcoal’ and ‘heathered oat’. It’s not itchy at all, and has this super lofty, soft cosy feel to the yarn. The diamond stitch knit adds some subtle dimension. I wear this in a size M for a super relaxed fit – love that you can essentially customise the fit by going up or down a size.
Of course I also had to mention Everlane’s scarves. These are the perfect cold weather accessory. My personal favourite this Christmas is the waffle stitch scarf. As I wear so many basic, minimal outfits, texture is key. And this scarf has it in troves. Super soft and warm too.
Another favourite basic of mine are Everlane’s air tees. Again, a style I own in multiple colours; often ending up as a most worn piece in my closet. I find that this style is a bit broad through the shoulders so I size down to an XS. It’s super oversized and relaxed, and has this light, gauzey and airy feel when worn. Perfect for layering and also that transition through to the warmer months.
It’s been pretty chilly here in Sydney, despite summer starting, and I’ve taken to wearing slippers a lot around the house. The Everlane renew teddy slippers have been a favourite; they’re fuzzy and chic, and I adore that they’re made from 100% recycled materials. And yes, they’re just as cosy as they look. Also love that the rubber sole means you can wear them outside when grabbing your morning paper, without worrying about them getting ruined. I have them in the colour ‘brown sugar’, but ‘natural’ is also a gorgeous neutral choice.
The final piece I wanted to highlight is the do-it-all tote. Made from a mix of Everlane’s reknit fabric combined with tencel, I can tell you know that this is such a practical piece. It’s machine washable (love this for lighter colours), and the reknit fabric is light in the hand, meaning it’ll really only weigh as much as the items you fill it with. I also love that this bag has a long strap so practical for wearing both on the shoulder and crossbody.
