Swank Holiday Gift Guide: Hostess with the Mostess

I used to feel a little overwhelmed and intimidated trying to find the perfect hostess gift for the many parties that we attend over the holiday season but, nowadays, it seems that everywhere we turn there's a fabulous option right in front of our eyes.

We searched high and low, and scoured store after store, website after website, and put together a collection of our favourite gems for your swank hostess:

1. Limited Edition Golden Momogram Mug {$10}:  We're speechless!  I think I need one for each letter of my name - just because.  And gold.  Need we say more?  Available in-store or online at Anthropologie.
