No worries, though, because Sadie, the Saddle Creek Elf, is here to help!

Jewelry, accessories and candles are always a good choice for the lady in your life! Altar’d State + Arula work hand in hand to help you find some cute, on trend pieces that perfect for gift giving. They also have some fun holiday and NYE apparel pieces in store!

Anthropologie is a must-visit for more whimsical, aesthetically pleasing gifts. Again, candles are a great choice, but they’ve also got a cute collection of mugs, coffee table books and other kitchenware for those who love to create a cool vibe with their tablescapes.

Have a guy in your life that’s hard to shop for? Stop in UNTUCKit for button ups, pullovers and other wardrobe needs that they may not even think about (but desperately need).

Vera Bradley is a staple for so many people, and they’ve just dropped their fun new Snoopy Collection of travel bags, backpacks, wallets, robes and more.

Banana Republic, J. Crew, Brooks Brothers,  and LOFT are my fave places to shop for those “classic” Christmas gifts. Think cozy knits and scarves, flannels, blazers, cold weather accessories, and even some playful jewelry that can be worn for NYE.

Have a friend that’s recently begun working out (but you don’t want to get them workout clothes)? Lululemon offers cute accessories (colorful key chains and pouches) that are designed to be used while on the move.

Have everything you need for the kids except stocking stuffers? Check out Paper Source! Think small toys, planners, pins, puzzles and other funny gifts that can also double as White Elephant Gifts for co-workers.

My biggest tip for whatever you do is to go to stores that you know like the back of your hand. Have a realistic budget and a list, and go as early as possible to beat the crowds and to also shop safely. Happy shopping!

It’s hard to believe but Christmas is only one week away! We don’t know about you guys but we’re still finishing up our holiday shopping, so Sadie the Elf (Saddle Creek’s special little helper), has agreed to give us some tips on where to shop for all of our last minute gifts.

If you’re still on the hunt for a few gifts yourself, here’s a roundup of some of Sadie’s favorite places to shop in Saddle Creek. Whether you’re looking for holiday party gifts, stocking stuffers for the fam, or ready to splurge on a gift for someone extra special, here are some great gift options you can pick up this week:

Gifts $25 + Under

When you’re shopping for coworkers and new friends, get them something fun that you know they’ll enjoy. Sur la Table has popcorn gift sets ($20) that are perfect for movie night (or snacks when you’re on break and trying to avoid work).

while Banana Republic has a great range of mini colognes ($25) and candles to choose from.

Sadie also loves a good suit!

Gifts $50 + Under
Have friends or family that love all things home decor? This Christmas in Memphis picture frame ($50) from Southern Avenue Company is a unique way to #repyocity during the holiday season.

Shopping for a set of homebodies? Gift her the softest blanket from Vera Bradley and him a spirit and glass set from vomFASS ($48).

They’re a match made in movie night heaven!

Gifts $100 + Under
Who doesn’t love cozy, comfy PJs? Indigo carries the cutest sets by PJ Salvage; get these for your sister or friend that loves to wake up and lounge in style.

SEE is known for their super cool frames, so a pair of aviators ($99) from here will have your brother (or bae!) #selfie ready.

They also carry regular frames, so you can throw in an eye exam too!

I swear she knows what she’s doing!

Major Splurges ($300+)
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend (especially on Christmas), and the Penny Preville necklace from Southern Avenue Company (call for pricing) would have her shining bright (and grinning from ear to ear, ha!) if she got this under the tree.

Allen Edmonds has some of the flyest shoes and accessories for men right now, and the Boston Duffle Bag (canvas/leather; reg $650/on sale for under $400 through December 24th) is a must for the guy in your life that’s a jet-setter and always on the go.

Stocking Stuffers
American Threads is a go-to source for trendy, fashion forward clothes and accessories, so pop in here if you need some last minute gift ideas for your bestie or sister and they love earrings, sunnies, and scarves.

Vom FASS also has some specialty oils and vinegars that would make for a delicious white elephant gift that you’d actually want to keep!

And if all else fails, you won’t go wrong with gift cards from Sephora, Anthropologie and J. Crew!

Once your shopping is done, head over to the Paper Source to pick up your gift wrap supplies. They have a ton of different designs to choose from, and they also offer gift wrapping services ($8 per gift) if you’d rather have a professional do it, lol.

Sadie has her picks, but I don’t think she would be much help with the actual wrapping!

Thanks for your help Sadie!

Saddle Creek will have extended hours through Saturday, December 22 and stores will be open until 9pm. Click here for the holiday schedule and full store directory.

Happy shopping!
