This year more than ever, supporting small businesses is SO important. My gift guide includes a wide diversity of retailers, price points and businesses, but I also wanted to dedicate another post for that as well, especially as many small businesses are not connected to RewardStyle (LiketoKnow.It). There’s a saying that when you give to a small business, an actual person does a happy dance — and I love that. As an entrepreneur and someone who now owns a small biz myself (Self-Care Society!), it means the world to support these companies that work so hard and have survived against all of the unprecedented events in 2020.
I also have the pleasure of working with some amazing brands that have allowed me to share promo codes. So this blog combines both brands I work with closely, as well as other small businesses I admire and want to share. I also created a highlight on my Instagram where I shared not only local and small businesses I love, but ones you all recommended too. Coming together to support is so important right now – and I’m grateful for everything you are sharing with me :). Everything is listed and linked under the graphics here!
Self-Care Society – Give the gift of self-care this season, or purchase for yourself before we start another round as a community in January! I’m offering my biggest sale EVER with 30% off using code BLACKFRIDAY. Once you purchase Self-Care Society – you have everything you need to join us and will have full access to the community via Slack.
Caraway – The BEST pots and pans, ever! Non-toxic, non-stick and chemical-free, they are a staple in my kitchen and have made cooking that much more enjoyable! The clean-up is my least favorite part, and with Caraway, it’s seamless. I have the fry pan and the saucepan, and I just ordered the sautee pan myself! 10%, 15%, and 20% is applied automatically at discount based on how much you spend. The website has a gift-guide that packages up two pans in sets, as well as the set of 4.
Simplified – My planner for 2021! I get so excited about new planners and I can’t wait to use this at the start of the year. I have the daily planner which has a ton of space for each day – and I love that. There’s also a ton of simplification tips throughout. A woman-owned company, too! Planners are currently on sale for $48 vs the original $60.
Necessaire – For the self-care junkie in your life, these products take your shower + bath experience to the next level. They smell so good and feel SO clean and good for you — because it is.

Full size bottle of serum added to your order through 11/30.

Here’s an additional list of small businesses/brands I admire that I wanted to share as GREAT gift options!
Etsy Old English Letter Necklace: I got this for my birthday with “1992” on it after seeing a friend wear one, and I LOVE IT. You can get it with any name or numbers that you’d like. Such a fun layering piece that’s personalized, at an affordable price, while supporting an Etsy shop! Win, win, win!
All Good Feels: One of my favorite workout companies, woman-owned, that makes the most flattering almost sexy workout wear. I truly feel so good in their pieces. Love the Luna Set as well as this sweatshirt (it’s on my list ;)!)
MadeByKWest: My friend Kira created a BEAUTIFUL Jewelry line and I am in love with The Everything Chain (on my list!) and The World necklace. It works for glasses, masks, you name it! Plus, each piece you purchase makes an impact through a donation to a featured organization. This is an incredible black-owned, small business to support.
Wren Home: Another great personalized gift idea! I purchased a wooden board as a wedding gift previously, and I also love their glassware (I have the stemless “M” wine glasses myself!) Always love personalized gifts and this is a great one for the hostess in your life, or even the bride or groom-to-be! 25% off with code GIFTING.
Estelle Colored Glass– Another Black-owned small business, Estelle Colored Glass is a luxury brand of hand-blown colored glass cake stands and stemware in a mix of jewel tones and soft pastels. The glassware and sets is truly STUNNING and helps make any special occasion – or every day use – even more special. They’re just so special!
Alice and Wonder: My favorite boutique in Chicago! They have the CUTEST apparel, chicago-specific items, and home goods. The store just truly has the happiest energy and they are the KINDEST. I love them so much. 20% off all weekend with code TINSELTIME. Some of my favorites in the widget below!
LIVELY: The first brand I ever was an ambassador for, I have a special place in my heart for LIVELY. Their PJs are INCREDIBLE and their bras are the only ones I wear because they are so comfortable! Such a great gift idea because I personally find that I don’t buy these things for myself that often! A free tie-dye tote comes with every order. Some of my favorites in the widget below!
Mejuri: Jewelry brand I love is offering up to 20% off (buy more, spend more, sale) I have these boyfriend hoops that I love and wear all the time!
Vibrate Higher Daily Book by Lalah Deliah: One of my absolute favorite authors and educators, Lalah Deliah has the most beautiful, impactful words. In her book, she shares personal anecdotes and provides amazing perspective on how to Step into your Power.
Love Sweat Fitness Foam Roller: This foam roller is a DREAM! A perfect gift idea to complete anyone’s home gym, as recovery is so important! It’s super functional with a 2-in-1 design + it’s beautiful!
Vicinity Candles: I thought this was such a great, fun gift for someone who is from or lives in Chicago. They are a new company that created custom scents for each neighborhood. SO fun and such a sweet, personalized gift!
Olive and Oldes Floor Cushion: A company designed in bringing comfort and making sure everyone has a “soft space to land.” These cushions are small-batch handmade & hand-filled buckwheat hull cushions, and for every cushion they make, they plant one tree in Colorado! Code BUN_UNDONE for 10% off!
Kitsch face masks: Truly my favorite face masks that are the most breathable and comfortable, this would make a great stocking stuffer! We could always use more masks :).
