Fact: It's totally fine to treat yourself every once in awhile! With all the challenges in life, giving yourself a little something to keep you motivated, to congratulate yourself, or to cheer yourself up is completely warranted. Think: cozy gifts for self care or upgrades to items you're going to use all the time.

If you're feeling a little guilty about getting gifts to give yourself, there are a few ways you can go about it. First, consider a gift that gives back. Knowing that you're helping out a good cause can doubly boost your mood. Second, splurge on something useful that will help your budget in the long run, like an on-the-go smoothie blender or an at-home manicure kit. Bonus if you can share it with someone in the house like Ree Drummond's coffee frother.

And as the holidays approach, finding gifts to give yourself has another purpose: It actually helps you find gift ideas for others! Seriously, that's what the Drummond ladies do when gifting to each other. As Ree explained to her daughters, "You can sort of say, what do I love? And then you can think, if I love it, then my sister's gonna love it." In fact, you'll find several gifts on this list that they've purchased with rave reviews. So go on, treat yourself! You deserve it.
