Cool Advent Calenders – Not Full of Bland Chocolate…

Mini Mané from Ciaté at Sephora ($69)

Advent calendars have come a long way.  My childhood was full of felt on a tree (which by the way I absolutely loved Mom) and cheap drugstore chocolate calendars with so-so chocolate that tasted fantastic when you could finally eat it.  These two options from Sephora certainly up the game, and are pretty exciting to open everyday.

But I also say a)make your own or b)buy one and refill it with your own treats every year.  Here are some other Advent Calendars I liked:

ps Anyone annoyed I am already talking about Christmas?  But let’s be realistic people, with all the planning to do beginning of November is the time to start to get organized!
