Candice Huffine’s Holiday Gift Guide

Fashion

Candice Huffine, one of the faces of Victoria’s Secret’s holiday campaign, knows a thing or two about gift-giving. And this year, the longtime model and owner of the coffee shop One Trick Pony in Westhampton Beach clued us in on her best tip: “No matter how big or small the gift may be, let the receiver know you are really listening,” she tells ELLE.com. “Make it special to them or your relationship together that reminds them they’re seen! It’s the heart behind it, not the price, that I feel means the most.” One example? Huffine’s father needed toilet paper, so she set up an Amazon subscription for it to be delivered to his house every month for a year. Below, Huffine shares what else is on her list, from a vintage gold Rolex to the VS PJs she’ll be wearing all season long.

“A black diamond tennis necklace. I had been saying out loud for years that I wanted a black diamond tennis necklace like the one Carrie had in the Sex and the City movie, and that one day I would really treat myself for a special occasion or milestone. Someone very special was listening the entire time and had it made for me last Christmas.”
