Check everyone off your list this holiday season!

Frankie Wenson

You’re making your list and checking it twice…. or maybe 3,4 or even 10 times! Don’t you wish you could have an easier way to check everyone off your list this year so you can finally sit back, relax and curl up in a nice warm blanket with a peppermint hot chocolate in hand? Well we think you deserve it so we are doing the work so you don’t have to!

Here is a #DowntownSac stamp of approval gift guide in order to help you find something for everyone on your list without having to deal with the long lines at the mall.

FOR THE FASHIONISTA

We all have that one friend who is constantly staying on top of the newest trends and has to document their OOTD every day. Luckily, our downtown stores have got it covered! Retailers sell anything from shoes, tee shirts, dresses and so much more. With new shipments arriving weekly, there is no doubt that you will be able to find something unique and one of a kind for that fashionable someone in your life.

FOR THE CHEF IN YOUR LIFE

If you have someone on your list whose passion starts in the kitchen than get them something they can utilize all year round! Maybe they have been eyeing the newest cookbook that just released or are looking for some new kitchen utensils to help make their baking dreams a reality. You can find everything you need for them at one of these locations!

FOR THE SELF-CARE ADDICT

The holidays are known to be the busiest times of the year. There is almost no time to stop and think about yourself let alone your self-care. This year give that overworked someone the gift of relaxation with items from one of these retailers.

FOR THE FOODIE

Are you having trouble finding a gift for that one person in your life who tells you they don’t need anything? Give them the gift of good food! Downtown Sacramento has a booming food scene to help satisfy the craving for anyone on your list no matter what their pallet.

FOR OUR FURRY FRIENDS

It can be hard to try to find that perfect gift for our most loyal friends who every year stick by our sides no matter what might happen in life…our pets of course!
