Fitbit Ionic Watch

Fitbit Ionic Watch

The best fitness tech accessory this year is the Fitbit Ionic ($300), and it's sure to please the runner in your life who's just aching to add a bit of style into his or her workout.

Ban.do Mobile Charger

Ban.do Mobile Charger

The Ban.do Mobile Charger ($35) is my own personal go-to; it's tiny, it fits in my wallet or pocket, and it plugs directly into your phone without any of the hassle of lugging around a cord. My recommendation? Get two for your loved one so they can rotate between them and never be stuck without a charge.

Ban.do Charger Set

Ban.do Charger Set

The Ban.do Power Trip ($32) is basically the best gift you can give: the power of always having a charge, no matter where you are — and doing it with style.

Shure SE215 Earphones

Shure SE215 Earphones

I've never really been able to find earbuds that I loved — that is, until I tried a pair of Shure SE215 Wireless Earphones ($149). With incredibly soft, pliable buds that slip on the ends, I was able to get the perfect fit for my ears — and have been rocking them nonstop on my commute and in the gym.

WoodWe MacBook Cover

WoodWe MacBook Cover

There's something delightfully charming about the WoodWe line of products — from MacBook covers to iPhone cases, they can transform any metal with their wood accent pieces. My favorite, though, just happens to be the WoodWe MacBook Cover in Bamboo ($83).

Kate Spade Cat Crossbody

Kate Spade Cat Crossbody

The Kate Spade North South Cat Crossbody ($128) is adorable and functional at the very same time — oh, and it's pretty damn usable in one's everyday life, too. Mom, if you're reading this: please get me one. I've gotten it for everyone on my list already.

Popsockets

Popsockets

I LOVE Popsockets ($10) as they make everything phone-related in our lives easier — and the latest styles have us fawning all over again. So why not help a friend level up their phone, too?

Brooklyn Caryall

Brooklyn Caryall

I love, love, love my Mark & Graham Brooklyn Caryall ($349) and take it with me basically everywhere — it protects my devices from RFID-related theft with its super future-savvy technology and holds literally everything that matters in my life from my laptop (there's a special compartment for it!) to my wallet (I can hide it in the zipper compartment) and would recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect bag for the working woman.

Leather Tech Envelope

Leather Tech Envelope

One of the best gifts for a lady on the go is the Mark & Graham Leather Tech Envelope ($104, originally $129) that holds all of the things most important in life in one totally sexy leather clutch.

Ventev Lightning Cable

Ventev Lightning Cable

If there's one thing we all have in common, it's that we all need to charge our devices. So make that process classy as hell for a certain special person in your life with the Ventev Chargesync Alloy Cable ($25). You should probably get one for yourself while you're at it, too.

Leather Charger Roll-Up

Leather Charger Roll-Up

The Mark & Graham Leather Charger Roll-Up ($32, originally $49) is a functional yet personal item that allows you to avoid having a tangle of cords mucking about in the bottom of your bag, so it's basically the perfect gift for that one person everyone knows who just cannot keep their iPhone headphones untangled.

Sanus Wireless Speaker Stands

Sanus Wireless Speaker Stands

A chic-as-hell design and the power to take your surround sound to the next level with appropriately placed speakers make the Sanus Wireless Speaker Stands ($79) a total must buy for anyone who owns (or is thinking of owning) a Sonos system.

Ultimate Ears Blast

Ultimate Ears Blast

For the music-lover in your life, I highly, highly recommend Ultimate Ears Blast ($230). It's the best sound you'll get in a portable Bluetooth speaker, and bonus, it's controlled by Amazon's Alexa (so you can do everything hands-free).

Rebecca Minkoff Glow Selfie iPhone Case

Rebecca Minkoff Glow Selfie iPhone Case

We all have at least one person in our lives who always tries to take the perfect selfie and will go to great lengths to get the perfect lighting to snap that shot. So make it easy for 'em with the Rebecca Minkoff Glow Selfie Case ($60) which literally lights you up in just the perfect way, every time.

iPhone-Charging Bracelet

iPhone-Charging Bracelet

The Mark & Graham iPhone Charging Bracelet ($149) is the first wearable charger I've used that really feels like a piece of luxury jewelry — oh, and you can also get it monogrammed for an added bit of charm.

Marimekko Microsoft Surface Case

Marimekko Microsoft Surface Case

I'm a sucker for anything Marimekko, and I was stoked when I found out that the Surface line of laptops now had a sleeve featuring prints from the legendary brand. If you've got a friend with one of the nifty Microsoft computers, this Marimekko sleeve ($75) is a must.

Damson HeadSpace Headphones

Damson HeadSpace Headphones

The Damson HeadSpace Headphones ($149) have totally transformed my working hours into a tranquil, peaceful place — you really can't beat the quality and price combination, and they look pretty damn cool too.

Skyroam Solis

Skyroam Solis

Hotspot hopping is hard — but it doesn't have to be. With the Skyroam Solis ($150), you can give the power of a personal hotspot and, bonus, a works-with-every-device charger to that person who's always working on the go.

Insta360 One
Insta360 One

Insta360 One

For the videographer in your life, the Insta360 One ($300) is an ASTOUNDING piece of technology that allows you to create a beautiful, social-ready, 360-degree video (read: panoramic but with video!) no matter where in the world you are. Trust me, this is one gift that will make your loved one feel like they truly are living in the future.
