Track Suit: This track suit is so soft and perfect for lounging around. When I saw it I instantly thought about my friend Rachel on the frontlines Olivia Pope-ing the world and I feel like this is exactly what she’d want to come home and wear at the end of a day taking over a male-dominated world.

Black Coat: This coat is so on-trend and fierce it instantly reminded me of my niece. She’s away at college so I know it would keep her warm as she battles the cold on campus. It’s the perfect gift for a determined young lady with style. 

Gold Cuban Link Necklace: This style of necklace is timeless and reminds me of the early days of hip hop in the late 80s and early 90s. I think it’s great to see the newer generations continue to renew the older trends in fresh ways. The ring is the sweetest stocking stuffer. It's a phenomenal accent piece that can be worn day today. I think this gift would surprise and wow the most discerning of tastes.

Nike Air: I love these! I’m known for rocking everything Nike. This is my gift to myself. It flows with the sweatsuit and would accentuate or complement any wardrobe.
