It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! But for many of us, Christmas looks a lot like panic-buying a bunch of last-minute gifts online for people who deserve much better. Our mothers do not want eucalyptus-scented aromatherapy nasal inhalers, and our fathers probably don’t actually have a whole lot of interest in that 10-piece hot sauce tester set. Sure, Etsy has saved us more times than one, but it’s never worth the stress of waiting, wondering if that order will actually arrive by December 25th! This year, stop the vicious cycle of last-minute panic purchases! Obion County, Tennessee, has great shopping opportunities to help you check off every loved one on your list and give them the gifts they really deserve. Here’s our ultimate guide to holiday shopping for everyone on your nice list:


Gifts for the Fashionista

For the ladies in your life, Obion County has a variety of options. The Chocolate Bunny Boutique is a must, whether you’re going for a chic-professional look or more of a fun night-out vibe. From fall blazers to knee-high suede boots to the cozy Teddy Coat (which feels like a hug from a hundred teddy bears at once—something we ALL need!), the Chocolate Bunny is stocked up on the latest trends and seasonal must-haves. You saw the comeback snakeskin boots made earlier this year. Get ready for cowhide slip-on flats. . . You heard it here first! Felecia Bella is another great option. With tie-dyed sweaters, comfy cardigans you didn’t know you needed, and the leisurewear you didn’t need until you were legally required to work from home, this boutique has everything from basics to splurges. Linen + Lace has stylish gifts for all ages of women, including adults and juniors. Their selection ranges from casual to classic and doesn’t stop at clothing—they have a colorful array of perfect stocking stuffers as well.

Gifts for the Man in Your Life

Men are notoriously difficult to shop for. Too many men have suffered unwrapping a pair of socks with cartoon bacon strips on them and a recipe book comprised solely of slider recipes. Not this year. Obion County’s Bennetts is a great store for men with a dapper, Southernsense of style. From button-downs to graphic tees, Bennetts has clothes for any and every kind of gentlemanly occasion. Another solid option for the guys is the Shoe Shack, which boasts every kind of shoe in the book: loafers, work boots, sneakers, hiking shoes, and more. Besides men’s shoes, they also have shoes for women and children, so this place to check multiple people off your list at once.


For the Outdoorsy Type

For the outdoorswoman on your list, check out OUTsideIN. This is a locally-based company that makes luggage bags for the woman who’s always on the go. These bags are convenient, feature fun patterns, and are made by struggling women who needed work and a safe place to recuperate. For the outdoorsman, Final Flight Outfitters has apparel for hunting big game, waterfowl, and turkey, as well as casual clothing. From waders to sunglasses, this is a great one-stop-shop for any hunting or fishing enthusiasts in your life.


For the Person Who Has Everything

These people are the toughest to shop for because it feels as if you can never really give them something good enough. Antiques are the perfect solution to this problem. The Gallery Showroom’s motto is “Grandma bought it, Momma threw it out, and I bought it back.” Very relatable for those of us who would’ve loved to get our hands on that brownie camera or vintage typewriter our parents sold for two bucks at a yard sale. Well, this is the place to buy it back—furniture, eclectic collectibles, vintage books, you name it. Sisters Antique is another sure-fire place to stop by. Whether you’re looking for classic décor or fun stocking-stuffers, their selection has it all, including pieces made by Mud Pie, which make for excellent and unexpected gifts.


For the Wine-Lover

For the big wine drinker (we all either know one or are one), check out White Squirrel Winery. Tennessee White Muscadine wine, blackberry wine, and peach wine are some of the most fun choices, but they have the classic reds and whites too. All of their wines taste great, and they all get the job done. FYI: Club memberships make for great gifts as well.

For Your Favorite Kiddo

When shopping for kids, Discovery Park has a great gift shop full of truly unique finds, and Sweet Pea Boutique & Blessings offers clothes, accessories, and more. Kids love the bath bombs and the warm-up stuffed animals.


No panic-purchases this year! Step away from Buzzfeed’s list of gifts for dads! Our fathers do not need more shaving essentials or hot sauce, and our mothers are perfectly stocked up on aromatherapy apparatuses. You can make sure your family and friends unwrap thoughtful gifts this year and save yourself from the stress-eyebrow-tweezing tradition simply by checking out the fantastic shopping in Obion County. Your loved ones (and your sanity!) will thank you later.
