White Elephant Gifts So Coveted They’ll Never Be Swapped

Gifts that absolutely sleigh the competition.

Silly, unnecessary and sometimes inappropriate, the best White Elephant gifts live on in holiday party lore.

01

“We Are Happy To Serve You” Ceramic Cup

The classic NYC takeaway cup, but in ceramic. Whimsical and fun, it’s a cool gift for anyone who loves New York . . . or is Greek. 

02

Wordle The Party Game

Turn the hit solo puzzle into a crowd-pleasing activity with Wordle: The Party Game. The pressure is on with this format. Great for groups that include both introverts and extroverts. 

03

Gracula Garlic Crusher

This whimsical Dracula-themed garlic crusher is a fun kitchen tool that shouldn’t be relegated to Halloween. Especially fun for groups where a malodorous lunch or two has been warmed up in the past. 

04

Framed Canvas Paint by Number

Everyone can be an artist with these fun, easy paint by number kits. We love these from Kraftistry because of the beautifully designed travel posters.

05

Middle Finger Scented Candle

This Middle Finger Scented Candle is sure to generate some laughs. And, to be clear, this candle is pine, not middle finger, scented.

06

Non-Stick Pizza Scissors

Forget the roller, pizza scissors are the future, man! This might be a love-it-or-hate-it gift at a party, but anyone who takes it home will be a quick convert.

07

The Bucket List: 1000 Adventures Big & Small

Kath Stathers’ “The Bucket List: 1000 Adventures Big & Small” is more than a book. It’s wanderlust, an invitation to explore and a broadening of one’s horizons. This one will generate tons of conversation.

08

Pooping Pooches Calendar

Forget stunning natural beauty, what we really need in January 2025 is more pooping pooches. Mark the yard year with this funny gift.

09

Tabletop Mini Bowling Game Set

Perfect for the workplace gift exchange, give someone a reason to blow off a little steam at their desk in 2025.

10

Martini Olive Almonds

Pranks may be made with these Martini Olive Almonds from Sugarfina. These are sure to be a hit.

The Bottom Line

A holiday mug? Nah, that’s a bore,
Socks again? We’ve seen that before.
But then I see it; could it really be?
A pooping dog calendar staring at me!

A staple of summer sartorialism reimagined for fall.

One of my favorite and most-worn summer pieces is our stone linen safari jacket. It’s incredibly versatile, perfect for travel, and one of the easiest ways I’ve found to add a touch of sartorialism to the general simplicity of summer outfits.
