There is no better feeling than everyone fighting to steal your gift during a white elephant gift exchange. Everyone knows that if your gift is stolen more than once, you are a taste master. If you are unsure what to bring to the next holiday party here is a list of items that are far more exciting than the fleece throw you were about to pick up from Target. The world has seen enough of those.
We only recommend products we have independently researched, tested, and loved. If you purchase a product found through our links, Sunday Edit may earn an affiliate commission.
