Levi’s! Shark! Vanessa Hudgens’s Top Gift Picks From Kohl’s

Now that we’re soarin’ and flyin’ into the holiday season, Vanessa Hudgens is helping Us break free of our gift shopping stress! The High School Musical star just shared her top gift picks from Kohl’s — and it includes these $56 Levi’s jeans she wears “almost every day.”

In an interview with Us, the famous actress opened up about what it was like to partner with Kohl’s again for their “Where Family Comes First” campaign, as well as shared her “favorite things” from the retailer for the season. She joins other stars, like Lea Michelle and Sarah Hyland, who’ve also teamed up with the retailer years after their early 2000s campaigns.

“I think Kohl’s is so amazing because it’s there for you at every stage of life and this is a true testament to that,” Hudgens said. “Now, partnering with them once again for the holidays, which is one of my favorite times of the year, and giving gift guides and everything . . . just being able to share the festive spirit is always something that I’m very fond of.”

A lot has changed for Hudgens since being a Candie’s girl over 13 years ago. She’s now married to professional baseball star Cole Tucker and the two also just welcomed a brand new baby on July 3, 2024. But that’s not all — Hudgens said her style has evolved from the time as well. Back then, Hudgens’s boho-chic, festival style was all over our Pinterest boards. Today, her dressing has shifted to be “a bit more tomboy-ish.”

“I wear this pair of jeans,” Hudgens said. “They’re the Levi’s 94 Baggy Wide Jeans almost every day. And [the] baggy t-shirts and the feminine dressing has definitely gone down on my radar.”

She’s now a self proclaimed “queen of comfort,” which is especially true when it comes to the holidays. She said that during this season, she’s “such a cliche shopper,” and loves “a knit pant with a matching cardigan,” which is a “go-to” for her. This is also why she’ll be shopping (and gifting) the Sonoma Goods For Life Shawl Collar Duster Cardigan and the Koolaburra by UGG Women’s Burree Platform Slippers, which she said “you can never go wrong with.”

“I just want to be cozy and comfortable,” Hudgens said “There’s nothing better than a fresh pair of slippers.”

Another thing that’s changed for Hudgens is that she’s “become such a homebody.” For example, this Christmas, she said she wants “to be at home,” with “the Christmas tree up, the fireplace going, some Christmas music playing and [with] a cup of warm mulled wine.” Sounds like sheer perfection to Us! Her below gift picks match her holiday plans so seamlessly.

For playing Christmas music in the house, Hudgens recommends the Victrola Journey Bluetooth Suitcase Record Player, which is “so cute [and] so easy to put anywhere.” For drinking hot cocoa or for getting a “little pop of caffeine,” she’s a fan of the Nespresso by Delonghi Vertuo Pop+ Machine. Then, to set the mood even further, Hudgens will either light the candle version or give herself a spritz of the fragrance, Maison Margiela REPLICA’ By the Fireplace, which she said smells “warm and kind of smoky.”

While listening to music and drinking a cozy drink, Hudgens also loves the Simply Vera Vera Wang Cozy Sherpa Faux Fur Hooded Lounger, which she said is “the coziest thing in the world.” The lounger is also perfect for wearing while doing a skincare routine as well. For this, Hudgens pointed out that the Tatcha Dewy Skin & Lips Hydrating Skincare Set makes “a great gift,” as does the Conair LED Light Therapy Anti-Aging Device.

Her gift recommendations don’t stop there though, we made sure to include more of her picks below! As Hudgens said Kohl’s has “literally everything,” and makes the perfect one-stop-shopping destination for the season — both online and in stores. Now’s also the best time to go shopping since many of her picks are on sale ahead of Black Friday!

On top of being a super stylish, edgy pick, Hudgens also called the Levi’s ’94 Baggy Wide-Leg Jeans jeans “really comfortable.” “They don’t feel hard like a lot of jeans,” Hudgens said. “They’re really soft. You can move in them and they have like a little bit of give.”
