Kelsea Ballerini shared her favorite holiday gifts with InStyle at the Amazon Holiday Soirée. Ballerini’s gift picks include fashion, beauty, tech, and home options with prices starting at just $13.

Plus, $13 hair care and hosting essentials.

It’s 2015, I’m putting on my makeup and I turn up Kelsea Ballerini’s XO hit. If you would’ve told 16-year-old me that I’d end up sitting in a hotel suite with Ballerini, I would’ve been floored. Well, that’s exactly what happened when the Patterns singer hosted Amazon’s Holiday Soirée last week and gabbed about her favorite festive gifts. 

“Gifting is all about knowing the person,” Ballerini told me. For the country star, that looks like sharing handmade “gifts of the heart” with her mom or receiving a Virgo necklace from beau Chase Stokes. At the end of the day, presents are about making you feel “known and seen,” Ballerini said.

That’s why she created a storefront full of holiday gift-ready options for that special someone—whether that be your “dad, partner, mom, or friends,” said Ballerini. And if you’re a procrastinator like the singer (her words, not mine!), you can rest assured that speedy two-day Amazon Prime shipping will deliver everything on time.

Ugg Classic Ultra Mini Platform Boot

$160 at Amazon

Ballerini is big on quality time, whether that’s “hosting a dinner” or “having friends over,” she said. Both call for cozy footwear, like the Ugg Classic Ultra Mini Platform Boot. The brand doesn’t only have the approval of Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez, but you can officially add Ballerini to the line up.    

Coach Quilted Tabby Shoulder Bag

$395 at Amazon

Steal Ballerini’s exact party look by shopping the Coach Quilted Tabby Shoulder Bag. As soon as I saw the all-black version slung over her shoulder, I knew I had to have it. This may just be one of those gifts you end up keeping for yourself. For Ballerini’s full ‘fit, consider adding the Larroudé x Altuzarra leather pumps and PatBo Velvet Mini Dress to your cart.    

Qipecedm 4-Piece Ribbed Coupe Glasses

$24 at Amazon

Toasting to the holidays with a four-time Grammy-nominated singer wasn’t on my 2024 bing cardo, but, boy, am I glad it happened! “It’s the little things, like a good glass of champagne and [being] in a safe place with people you love,” Ballerini shared. Recreate the star’s sentiment with the same $24 glasses she raved about.  

Amazon Essentials Relaxed Jogger

$27 at Amazon

Ballerini is trying to be “present in this season.” Her answer? Hanging out with loved ones in “really comfortable clothes with good-smelling candles and a nice face mask,” she said. While a Voluspa candle and her favorite Gua Sha set have the latter two must-haves covered, her go-to Amazon Essentials Relaxed Joggers can take care of the rest. They’re $27, and the coordinating sweatshirt is just $24.   

Victrola Bluetooth Portable Record Player

$60 $50 at Amazon

Ballerini’s gift list is for everyone, remember? So snag a Victrola Record Player for your bestie, grandpa, or significant other. “A record player is a really beautiful, timeless gift,” said Ballerini. You can make things even sweeter by throwing on her Patterns vinyl.   

Intelligent Change Five-Minute Journal 

$30 $28 at Amazon

For something really unique, consider the Intelligent Change Five-Minute Journal. Ballerini was given the keepsake “years ago” and presented her dad with it “two Christmas’ ago,” she shared. I’m yet another fan; I received the same book last year and fell in love with it. 

No matter which presents you select, take Ballerini’s advice: The holidays aren’t just about “the gifting element.” Instead, they’re about “memory-making and tradition-starting,” she said. “That, to me, feels really exciting.”
