Meet Sam, a Manager of Partner Marketing here at Rue. She’s the point person for some of our very important partners, and she makes sure everyone is happy on both ends (and that our marketing looks awesome, of course). Check out the gifts she’s picked for those lucky enough to make her list.

For my husband: ”He’s been hinting around for a new watch and this could be the one. I also think that it will look great on my wrist as well!”

For my sister: ”She’s an avid reader and adores her Kindle. This cover will be perfect for her.”

For my son: ”He’s 14 months old, and reading stories with him before bed is the best time of my day. This was one of my favorite books growing up and I know that he would love it, too.”

Find all these gifts (and lots, lots more) in our Get Gifty: Our Holiday Gift Shop Boutique, open now.

1. Robinson’s Prime Reserve Samuel Adams lobster roll pack. Since moving to Boston six years ago, I’ve slowly but surely become a Sam Adams girl. (Sam Summer on draft practically sponsored my first season here, after all.) With all the fixings to make a Summer Ale–infused lobster roll – plus four Samuel Adams pint glasses – this little gourmet kit is the surest way to get that summer-in-Boston fix… even when it’s bitter cold out. Our The Holiday Spread: Steaks, Salami, & More Boutique opens Monday, December 10, at 11AM ET. 

2. Badgley Mischka gown. Question: What would Angelina wear? Answer: This. Our Badgley Mishka Boutique opens Sunday, December 9, at 11AM ET. 

3. Shun Chef’s Knife. I’ve come to accept the fact that my younger brother will always be a better cook than me. In lieu of waving a white flag? I’ll just gift him this seriously legitimate chef’s knife. (Well done, little one.) Our The Chef’s Go-To: Shun Knives Boutique opens Thursday, December 13, at 11AM ET.

4. Metrokane V1 Vacuum Decanter. For those (somewhat rare) occasions when a bottle of wine lasts more than a few days in my apartment, this vacuum decanter will ensure that every last drop tastes as good as – make that even better than – it tasted on the day of opening. Our Metrokane Boutique opens Friday, December 14, at 11AM ET.
