The best holiday gifts over $100 for your friends, family, or yourself

As we gear up to finish — or start — our holiday shopping, you might be looking for something a little more luxurious for your friends, family, or even yourself.

We have curated a list of the best pricier gifts you could give this season.

Crossbody Bag

Over the past while, lululemon has upped its bag game and expanded beyond the classic belt bag that we (still) love! One of our favourites right now is the Convertible Ruched Crossbody, which comes in fun colours and fits everything you need to get through the day. There’s even an interior pocket designed to hold your water bottle, and you can cinch the sides to condense the size if you need less space. It sells for $148.

Cotton Bed Sheets

We spend a lot of time in our beds, and a good sheet set makes a big difference. Silk and Snow offers a range of upgraded bedding, furniture, and bath options. One of our favourite sets is the Percale Bed Sheets, which are described as “crisp, cool, breathable.” The Portuguese-made percale cotton cooling sheets will definitely add to your sleep experience! They come in a number of colours, and a queen set goes for $160.

Spill-proof Rug

We love an area rug, but if you have pets or kids, or are a tad bit clumsy, it can be super frustrating to scrub it clean or rent a carpet cleaner a couple of times a year. Enter Tumble. These spill-proof, machine-washable rugs are kid and pet-friendly and come with a cushioned rug pad for extra cozy comfort. Tumble has so many options and sizes, and thousands of five-star reviews.

The iconic SuperPuff

Take a walk in the winter, and chances are you will spot at least a few folks wearing the super cozy Super Puff from Aritzia. The winter coats come in a range of colours, styles, and lengths and will easily be a hit during the holidays, with coats starting under $200. You can also score a matching Super Ruff Puff for your pooch this year.

Hotel gift card

For the person who has everything, or just loves a getaway or spa experience, a gift card from Marriott Bonvoy is the perfect present. The company has a ton of hotels across Canada, and the gift cards can be used for everything from overnight stays to spa services to restaurants. And if you’re shopping for someone who lives across the country, the gift cards can easily be emailed.

Waterproof boots

Canadian winters need to be taken seriously, and these waterproof boots from Geox will not only protect you from the rain, slush, and snow, but they will also look good and keep your feet toasty! The Spherica boots also feature thermal insulation and enhanced cushioning effect. Get them on sale now for $144.

Talisman necklace

Pyrrha has an extensive range of talismans, and each is meant to hold personal significance and be something you can cherish forever. The Vancouver-based jewellery brand is committed to social and environmental responsibility. All of its pieces are handcrafted with 100 per cent recycled metals in a Canadian Green Building Council-certified zero-carbon Vancouver studio. Talismans start at $235.

Smart Sunglasses

Forget about grabbing your phone to snap a photo or capture some video, and let your sunglasses do it for you! The RayBay Meta Skyler (Gen 2), which sells for $645, also makes calls and checks messages, hands-free! They have 3K Ultra HD for incredible video resolution and provide up to eight hours of battery life, with up to 48 additional hours with a fully charged case.

Holiday outfit

If you’re looking for the perfect holiday outfit for yourself, you should definitely check out Honey. The Canadian brand features sparkly dresses, cardigans, and accessories, perfect for any gathering this season. One of our faves is the Isabel Bow Tie Front Jacket, which sells for $148.

Marshalls Canada Gift Card

 

Have someone tough on your list and just can’t decide what to get them? A gift card from Marshalls Canada is an easy one, and they are sure to find something they love. If you’re looking to pick something up for them instead, help is here! This year, Marshalls teamed up with Las Culturistas to launch “It’s Giving Gifts!” It’s a reimagined holiday gift guide, created in collaboration with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang, which features 15 relatable gift categories to help shoppers skip the generic and get personal.

AirPods Pro 3

Whether that person on your list has had a pair for years or they’ve never experienced them, Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 offer ridiculously great sound quality and the best in-ear Active Noise Cancellation. They actually remove up to four times more noise than the original AirPods Pro. And the latest version, which sells for $329, is good for your health too — they can measure heart rate and track dozens of different workouts. And for travellers, there is also Live Translation.

Matching Sweatsuit

Roots is a Canadian classic, and the Cloud Sweats collection may be among the coziest things you’ve ever worn. Grab a matching pair of pants and hoodie for yourself or someone on your list who is all about comfort! The hoodies sell for around $94, while the pants go for about $88.

Toothbrush

Self-care has been a focus for a lot of us, so why not help someone improve their mouth health? An electric toothbrush can definitely be an experience, and Philips Sonicare offers a range of products at different price points. Our fave is the DiamondClean Smart 9350, which sells for around $215.

Slushi Maker

For the entertainer in your life! The Ninja Slushi Professional Drink Maker with RapidChill Technology is available at Canadian Tire for $299 and is the easiest way to make frozen drinks at home. You can make flavorful frozen drinks from a ton of your fave drinks — including wine, coffee, soda, juice, and chocolate milk.

LED Face Mask

If someone on your list is looking to up their skincare game this season, the Shark CryoGlow™ Cooling + LED Face Mask is a great choice. It sells for $499 and offers a ton of features for anti-aging, skin clearing and under-eye revival. According to Shark, you will see clearer skin in two weeks and firmer skin in two months.
