Blogmas 2013: Day 10! Holiday Gift Guide/Wishlist

I am super excited about today's post! I love creating gift guides and wishlists to give myself inspiration on what to buy for friends or even what to ask for myself! I always find myself watching gift guide videos or reading other people's gift idea posts. The Holiday season is a time of giving and one of my favorite things is picking out gifts for others. 
I chose 4 categories as well as my own wishlist of this year:
-Under $15
-Under $50
-$50+
-For Men
-My Wishlist
I hope this gives you some ideas on what to give to friends or family or what to add to your wishlist!
