I love Christmas shopping, but it can get tricky when you have so many people to buy presents for. To manage my shopping list and budget, I’ll usually try to purchase the more expensive gifts up front during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, then save the less expensive gifts for later. Although I’ll often splurge on Phil, close friends, and our families, I try to stay within the $50 budget when it comes to gift shopping for co-workers, hostesses, and Secret Santa exchanges. It doesn’t seem like you can get a whole lot for $50 these days, but there are some really chic under $50 gifts that look more expensive than their price tag. Below I rounded up my favorites that are as stylish as they are useful.
