Updated: 9:54 AM CST Nov 12, 2026 Editorial Standards ⓘ Lauren Lee Digital News Video Producer Oprah's Favorite Things is celebrating 30 years with a curated list of holiday gifts designed to bring comfort, creativity and practicality to everyday life. Adam Glassman, the creative director of Oprah Daily, explained how products make the list. Advertisement "A lot of things are actually tried and true. Things that Oprah uses, eats, smells, tries, gifts to other people. That's really what makes the list," Glassman said. Here are some of the top picks from Oprah's list : Melifluos Reversible Wrap Poncho, $37 Women's Shawl Wrap Poncho for Cape Ruana for Travel Plane Blanket, Reversible Open Front Design (PC01-15) Melifluos SHOP NOW walmart.com $38.92 $36.92 At Melifluos, we believe that style should be accessible to everyone. That's why we're here to solve a common dilemma faced by every shopper: finding a piece of clothing that are both stylish and affordable. Tired of the choice between fleeting, run-of-the-mill scarves and overpriced designer options, we founded Melifluos in 2014, right from our college dorm in Los Angeles. Our mission is simple: to create beautifully designed clothing pieces that elevate your style without breaking the bank. Our business model is straightforward: by working directly with fashion designers in Spain and partnering with top-tier manufacturers, we ensure quality craftsmanship and exquisite designs. By offering our products directly to you on Walmart, we eliminate middlemen and unnecessary expenses, passing the savings on to you. Since our inception, we've received over 30,000+ compliments from customers who feel their fashion style has been elevated with our products. Not only do our fashion pieces exude elegance and charm, but they also instill confidence, knowing you've found a high-quality accessory at an affordable price. We stand behind our products with a 30-day free return policy, because we believe you deserve to feel confident and stylish without compromise. Extra Versatile: Measuring 48" x 48", our ponchos are perfect for everyday wear and travel. Use them as a travel blanket, a stylish shawl for warmth on a plane or in the office, or as elegant accessories for weddings. The possibilities are endless! Luxurious Material: Melifluos shawls are made with 100% viscose derived from bamboo, a fabric that is warm, cashmere-like soft, and kinder to your skin and the environment. Elegant Design: Elevate your style with our versatile Spanish-inspired shawls. Whether on a plane, cruise or train, out for a casual walk, commuting, or attending formal events, our shawls ensure you look elegant on every occasion. Designed in Spain: We believe that elevating your fashion style is not hard; you just need a beautifully designed shawl that makes you stand out in the sea of run-of-the-mill ones. Priced at $37, the Melifluos Reversible Wrap Poncho provides multiple outfits and can be used as a travel blanket. "We searched high and low for these," Glassman said. "These are the prefect poncho." Sister Golden Jigsaw Puzzle, $32 Jigsaw Puzzle: Flower Moon Sister Golden SHOP NOW sistergolden.com $32.00 For screen-free family time, Sister Golden's $32 puzzles turn a mother-daughter team's artwork into a thoughtful gift. "Vicki, the mom, forages in her backyard for petals and twigs and leaves. Then, her daughter photographs them and they turn them into puzzles," Glassman said. "It is a low-key way to bring everyone together." Amazon Basics 11-piece ceramic nonstick cookware set, $56 Amazon Basics Ceramic Nonstick Cookware Set Amazon Basics SHOP NOW amazon.com $55.66 For those with limited kitchen space, the $56 Amazon Basics 11-piece ceramic nonstick cookware set offers a compact solution.

The cookware is ceramic-coated, making it easy to cook with less oil and clean up afterward. The pots and pans can go from stovetop to oven, then into the dishwasher.
