Holiday gift shop 2021: The best luxury gifts for lovers of Pop Culture

1. Subscription to Hung Up by Hunter Harris

The weekly newsletter from Twitter sensation Hunter Harris should be first on your holiday shopping list. A long-time writer for Vulture, Harris is responsible for the most fun, most interesting, and most of-the-moment hot takes on the Internet. Described as written for the “extremely online and extremely-with taste,” her weekly newsletter will keep you – or your pop-culture-lover pal – up-to-date on everything you need to know about the goings-on of media, art, and celebrity gossip. And with a year’s subscription, you’ll get full access to the archives, as well as behind-the-scenes posts, and the ability to write comments.

2. Merch from Super Yaki

Chances are, your friend is already a big fan of Super Yaki. Also called “a shop for people who watch very good movies,” this is the place to go for all the best and trendiest t-shirts, mugs, and enamel pins. Their offerings are all over the rainbow – from home goods to card games – so you’ll definitely be able to find something your friend would love. Of course, you can always get a gift card if you’re feeling stuck, but why not find something that shows you’ve been paying attention to all of their niche interests?  For instance, might we recommend this collab with Jordan Crucchiola, a “Justice for Jennifer’s Body” sweatshirt? After all, if your friend is a person of the internet, they too want justice for Jennifer’s Body.

Silver Spider Print Shop is Instagram’s favorite treasure trove of pins, hats, stickers, and more. Their entire selection is present-worthy (and you can trust that every item is on-trend), but we are big fans of their Roy Kent pins – particularly the ones that sparkle. Ted Lasso is pop culture’s mascot of the year, and so we’re sure this is going to be a fan favorite stocking stuffer.
