Our stylist-in-residence, Justin Leggett, returns this month to share his thoughtful, affordable gift ideas for 2025—from local favorites to national and internationally made brands—there is truly something in here for EVERYONE on your list (or a little something for yourself! *wink).

THE LIST

RŌJŌ JUICE

Located in Pike Place Market, Rōjō Juice is a family-run business in Seattle offering high-quality, locally sourced, and organic cold-pressed juices that support health and wellness.

REE PROJECTS

WHITE SPACE JEWELRY

Designer Khadijah Fulton has been bringing beautiful objects to life since early childhood. Each piece in the White Space collection carries its own unique, dynamic energy.

ZOOGOOD CUPCAKES

Possibly the best cupcake Justin has ever tasted, moist cake and perfect frosting. These are great for gifts or parties and can be ordered via DM on Instagram.

BLESSED & THANKFUL

Their new collection, Artists & Immigrants, is designed with purpose and worn with pride. Their quality and brand storytelling are top-notch.

EASY STREET RECORDS

Nothing is better than buying a record as a holiday gift. Hope over to West Seattle and pick up some vinyl, a gift card, or eat in the cafe.

HARLEM HABERDASHARY

Harlem Haberdashery's Sweet Harlem organic Aromatherapy spray is a beautiful balance of violet, chamomile, lavender, and red currant.

HONOR THE GIFT

Fashion for the city Justin is obsessed with, this pearl sweater isn't just for the holiday season; it's a piece that will become a wardrobe staple.

THE WALK CLUB

This year, the gift of time is really important to Jusin, and there's nothing better than a great walk in fresh PNW air. The Walk Club provides that reset.

MÉTIER BREWING CO

Métier Brewing Co.'s Hop Water is for drinkers and non-drinkers alike. Stop into their Cherry Street or Woodinville locations for a pint or pack to go.

BE HERE NOW SEATTLE

 Be Here Now's goal is to create a cycling space where everyone feels welcome, supported, and free to move in a way that feels best to them —no judgment, more curiosity, maybe even some joy along the way.

ALVIN WAYNE INTERIORS

Alvin Wayne Interiors is based in NY and styles with a focus on beauty, durability, and comfort, blending vintage and contemporary. The brand also features a small selection of home goods that consistently sell out fast.

ASL THANK YOU CARDS
