Need a little holiday shopping inspiration? We asked 8 stylish Atlantans for the one item they’re hoping to get this season, from fancy crystal-infused water bottles to pup portraits.
Katie Barringer
Owner, Cover Books
My favorite works by Warhol are the drawings he made in the 1950s. Andy Warhol: Seven Illustrated Books, 1952–1959. $200, Cover Books, located inside Atlanta Contemporary, cover-books.com
Yoonhwa Jang
Graphic designer
A Megan Huntz Selena blouse in black would be a dream, because her pieces have a way of making me feel like I can take over the world (or at least get through the holidays in one piece). $260, meganhuntz.com
Shannon Kroll
Director, Root City
At the top of my list is an LMF Art and Illustration custom portrait of my dog, Chef. This Atlanta artist offers a modern take on this classic concept that would look perfect in my home’s entryway. From $145, lacymfreeman.com
Brandon Sheats
Executive Director, Murmur Media
One thing that’s been on my list forever is the Holga 120N film camera. $39.99, bhphotovideo.com
Jessi Ford
Fitness instructor, Define: Atlanta
Hydration is the key to pretty much everything. Drinking water is made a million times more enjoyable when it comes from a Glacce Bottle. These glass bottles have crystals inside to add energy, revitalization, positivity, and more. If this can’t help with water intake, I don’t know what will. From $80, glaccebottles.com
Michele New
Marketing Director, Saks Fifth Avenue
My top wishlist item for the holidays would be a fabulous statement handbag. I love the new leather saddle bags from Balmain. $2,145, Saks Fifth Avenue, Phipps Plaza, saksfifthavenue.com
Michael Phillips
President, Jamestown Properties
A canelé baking pan for my favorite baked French puddings. $49.95, Williams Sonoma, Ponce City Market, williams-sonoma.com
Ryan Gravel
Creator, Atlanta BeltLine and Sixpitch
I don’t need a suit often, but sometimes it is necessary. Sid Mashburn makes them timeless, and it tells a story about Atlanta. The Kincaid No. 3 in Heather Blue Plainweave is blue enough but not too blue. $1,250, Sid Mashburn, Westside Provisions District, sidmashburn.com
Sarai Mateo
NARS Buckhead Boutique Manager
Man Ray for NARS “Glass Tears” Eyeshadow Palette is the holiday must-have this season! Six choices to take the look from day to night, all in one perfectly sized and beautifully packaged compact. $49, the Shops Buckhead Atlanta, narscosmetics.com
