Holiday Gift Guide with Sabrina Meijer

The third edition of our Holiday Gift guide features our founder Sabrina Meijer. In this Story she shares her REYÈM favorites and gift recommendations.

The most memorable gift you've ever received?
Kees’ grand comeback vows after he hilariously misunderstood the assignment at our civil. Not a single eye in the room stayed dry, and honestly, no one nails oddly specific details about me with such romantic precision as he does.

What are your favorites from our Holiday Gift Shop?
Klangnapha's Classic bowl in Terra, Swedish Stockings grey socks, Rowse Winter body oil, Olive oil from our backyard bottled by yours truly, and Sisi Joia's Noué necklace.

What's your go-to way to make an outfit feel a little more festive?
A strategic sparkle but never too much, usually earrings or a necklace.

Who's your favorite person to shop for during the holidays?
We’re not big on gift-giving since we've been spending our last few holidays working on the house together in the South of France. So realistically, I shop for my husband…

Is there a scent, sound, or feeling that instantly makes it feel like the holidays for you?
When we hang up the Christmas decorations in-store. Terribly cliché, but the smell of fresh pine trees turns me into sentimental mush.

What would your dream winter getaway look like?
My sensible side begs for somewhere warm to escape the Dutch drizzle, but my romantic heart wants the whole snow-globe fantasy. Picture a tiny cabin in Lapland or Iceland, surrounded by fluffy snow.

What's a core holiday memory that's always stayed with you?
Our first Christmas together, Kees and I spontaneously fled to Austria to dodge Covid, play in the snow with our dogs, and attempt to teach me to ski. We got into a little fight on a snowy walk, and in a moment of drama, I tossed a snowball at him, fully assuming I’d miss. I hit him square in the face, melting both the snow and the tension instantly. Consider the ice officially broken.

What are your favorite REYÈM pieces for the holidays?
Balloon pants in Black, our Wide fit pants in Black (I wear these almost everyday! In winter I just wear heat tech underneath) and the Halter top in Cream.
