What 4 Time-Strapped Women
Are Eyeing This Holiday Season

In partnership with our friends at

Practicality is in the eye of the beholder. To some, it’s a pair of earrings that elevates any outfit while being beautifully appropriate at any event. To others, it’s headphones that are chic, easy, and tangle-free. To the consummate hostess, it might be the perfect set of wine glasses, and to one working mother, it could be the bag that stores everything (and then some) in the most stylish way imaginable. Whatever it is, if it saves time—or sanity—it’s a holiday gift worth investing in. We tapped some of the busiest women we know for ideas on, well, all of the above.
