"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, the weather outside can indeed get frightful at times, and many of us may be in the throes of winter and all the cold, wet chaos it throws at us. Fear not, though, as being deep into the first few weeks into the new year means we have now entered Capricorn season, and this is the time we’re blessed with big adulting energy that will quite literally help us weather these storms.

From Dec. 21 to Jan. 19, the sun enters the sign of Capricorn the Sea Goat, the pragmatic hard worker of the zodiac, who is all about putting their nose to the grind and getting stuff done. It’s actually pretty synced up with how many of us feel during the end-of-year hustle and bustle, where deadlines are being met, goals are being set for the coming year (here’s to another go at those New Year’s resolutions, folks), and things are being put into place.

It’s not lost on them that their birthdays come smack in the middle of the holidays and winter gifting season, which means it’s also an opportunity for their nearest and dearest to spoil them doubly so for all the effort they give to the world. And if you’re lucky enough to have a Cap in your corner, you’ll know they give a lot, so get ready to take some notes from our picks below. Happy shopping!

RT82 Reference High Fidelity Vinyl Turntable

Few things tickle a Capricorn’s fancy more than quality sensorial journeys. This super high-fidelity RT82 turntable from Fluance delivers a deliciously analog experience with a clear, accurate sound (yes, even if you’re connected via Bluetooth), and a solid plinth and feet that guard against micro-vibrations. Translation: Your sweet, old-soul Cap will revel in how Miles Davis seems to be playing directly inside their living room.

Reviews on both Amazon (4.8 stars) and their brand site (4.9 stars) give this “beautiful” and “excellent” manual turntable the highest marks, with audiophiles praising how it “exceeded expectations.”

“Vinyl never sounded so good,” adds one such fan. “From top to bottom, I couldn’t be happier,” says another, while a particularly helpful review says even his kids start using it like “little audiophiles:” “Very happy overall with the purchase and would highly recommend for anyone entering into the hobby,” they say.

You can purchase it alone or with the add-on amplifier, or if you want an all-in setup, go for the RT81, which has one built-in.

“Trust Your Timing” by Alice Bell

Beloved Vogue columnist and pop culture fave Alice Bell has been delighting her audience for years with her super incisive yet warm and friendly approach to astrology. Her first book is a much-awaited guide for astrology beginners, those yearning for a deep dive into natal chart readings or even lost souls needing a cosmic blueprint for both their day-to-day lives and relationships.

Trust Your Timing gives expert insight into using astrology and transits to best understand your placements and work with planetary timings for a more efficient, divinely aligned approach. It’s packed with info from the fundamentals — signs, houses, aspects — and has a whole part dedicated to overlays and love synastry charts, which is where things get juicy! Capricorns can’t resist a compelling biohack, and this is most definitely 2024’s version.

Capricorn Lowball Glass

Your elegant Capricorn will flip over this lovely, understated glyph glass — we know we did! It’s probably the chicest piece of zodiac merch we’ve seen so far, and the fact that it’s borosilicate (aka durable and heat-resistant) and dishwasher-safe makes it a no-brainer of a Capricorn gift. Truly, the challenge is resisting getting all the signs.

Order a Jungle

Being an earth sign, Capricorns have an innate appreciation for chic greenery. Horti offers everything from expert-chosen monthly plant subscriptions to one-off purchases from useful niche categories (“pet-friendly” is a personal fave, as well as, um, “hard to kill”).

One standout is the option to avail of its “rare plant” subscription, which is a delight for green thumbers jonesing for more bespoke, hard-to-find picks. Another is the “Order a Jungle” bundle, which is a fabulously convenient option for those who want a special one-and-done curation for their spaces or their recipients’ — choose either 5, 10, 15, or 20 plants, all with one easy click.

Instant Karma Candle

Capricorn’s planetary ruler, Saturn, is also known as the planet of karma, which is responsible for the sign’s signature “you reap what you sow” energy. Wherever Saturn is in one’s chart is also the area where we take sober, calculated action, hopefully reaping rewards that stay with us for the rest of our lives. This is especially true for Capricorn, who goes through life with a disciplined, unflappable take.

This non-toxic, vegan candle from Snif won’t exactly cause your jerky ex to get dumped by their new partner or for that evil coworker to get passed over for a promotion. However, its sensual, spicy, expensive-smelling scent is a nice daily reminder that the universe always evens things out in the end.

P.S. The cardamom-cinnamon blend lends just the right touch of heat to winter nights.

Calm Movements Eye & Cheek Masks

Is there anything cozier-sounding than a name like “Superegg?” Apart from being just darned fun to say, we love that this premium K-beauty brand specializes in high-quality clean products. It alchemizes — you guessed it — the humble, hardworking egg’s skincare benefits into sophisticated cleansers, creams, and serums for a healthy glow. The brand has also won multiple accolades, including ELLE’s Future of Beauty Award for the Skin category, so we’re definitely listening.

I love how each product includes a results-driven powerhouse of plant-based ingredients; this pack of five eye-and-cheek masks contains a ton of beneficial ingredients, including Centella Asiatica, peptides, hyaluronic acid, and rice bran oil, in a handy, travel-friendly format. Perfect for your busy Cap’s next red-eye flight.

x Marimekko Printed Round Mini Shoulder Bag

UNIQLO can barely keep these crowd-fave crossbodies in stock, and now that they come in exclusive Marimekko-collab colorways? Run, don’t walk, seriously.

I have these amazingly versatile bags in three colors, and I guess I’m just going to have to add more. Who can resist these peppy prints?

Bookmark the rest of the UNIQLO x Marimekko capsule collection as they restock inventory because missing out on these Scandi-chic pieces, especially at these prices, is bound to give you serious buyer’s remorse.

The Pro Bundle

Chances are you’ve seen this powder all over your socials, with everyone and their mother attesting to how colostrum is a boon for everything from gut support to guarding against inflammation to providing your body with antioxidants, et cetera — basically a whole-body benefit in a tub.

I credit my stash for less bloating and a strengthened immune system, particularly during the cold months. If your Cap is curious at all about this buzzworthy blend, now’s the time: It also has a new Performance Revival mix that promotes the creation of lean muscle and quicker recovery after workouts — you name it, just in time for those fitness resolutions. PSA: Bundles make things more giftable.

Velvet Bow Scrunchie

Are you ribboned out yet? Yeah, neither are we! Although your Capricorn might balk at the idea of anything too cutesy, this black velvet bow scrunchie distills the mega-popular coquette trend into a more sobered-up version that’s easily worn to work as it is for play. And at less than $10? Sold, sold, sold.

Monthly Membership

Pilates, everyone’s fave core workout, is reaching new pinnacles of popularity this 2024, which means more affordable options for the home workout enthusiast!

The Pilates Class from celebrity instructor Jacqui Kingswell is one such fun platform, with a variety of trainers, workouts, and even a multitude of recipes at the ready for subscribers. Its programs are pretty democratic, with categories ranging from “I’m a Newbie” to “I’m a Pro” ensuring you’re always at the appropriate level. Its monthly subscription clocks in at just under $30, making for a great gift.

Mineral Concealer

In case you haven’t noticed, Y2K is back in a major way, and countless microtrends — from soft club to corporate grunge — have been making their way back into the zeitgeist. Another comeback we’re stoked about? Mineral makeup, which shot to popularity in the aughts for being paraben- and preservative-free and safe for all skin types.

Apart from being all-natural, mineral makeup gives a smooth, flawless finish in a few easy swipes — a level of effortless perfection that your Cap will surely vibe with.

Demúre is a budget-friendly brand that offers color-corrective concealers, as well as vibrant eye colors and foundations, which also offers a more diverse shade palette, which is imperative.

Envoy 14-Inch Laptop Sleeve

Alexa, play Donna Summer’s “She Works Hard for the Money.” This sleek vegan leather laptop sleeve has everything your boss-energy Capricorn needs and none of the frills they don’t.

Its top opening is magnetic and it also features magnetic side openings that can expand for hassle-free charging, as well as pockets for other essentials. It's available for 14-inch and 16-inch laptop sizes and is waterproof, foam-padded, and slim-profiled. The sexiest sleeve we’ve seen so far, if that even were a thing!

Capricorn Moisturizer

Just in case you’re having trouble finding the perfect skincare stuff for your favorite goat, might we suggest this here *checks notes* Capricorn Moisturizer? Based on Western astrology’s four elements — fire, earth, air, and water — each product and element offers a different function and benefit, regardless of your actual zodiac sign (though they do ask for that in the intake quiz on the site).

Get as on the nose as you want with your actual zodiac sign, like this hardworking, barrier-strengthening Capricorn moisturizer, which echoes the strengths of the sign itself.

You can also pick up a collection based on each element or curate your own set based on your Big Three, aka your Sun, Moon, and Rising Signs (which is, natch, what I did). All products are vegan and contain 100% naturally derived fragrances and botanicals.

Revive Hangover CBD Gummies

A license to chill? Yes, please. For Caps that play as hard as they work, sometimes the morning after can get a bit rough. Enter: CBD hangover gummies (what a time to be alive, right?) that help combat all the ickies normally felt during that dreaded day after a bender — or that holiday party or five, since ’tis also the season, after all.

The Revive gumdrops come with 50 milligrams of high-quality CBD, which is a plant-based, anti-inflammatory, anti-anxiety, and anti-nausea antioxidant (and to those new to the game, is not the psychoactive strain from the marijuana plant).

The gummies — which taste delicious, BTW, like juicy tangerines — also have ingredients that help in recovery, like dihydromyricetin, vitamin B, potassium, magnesium, and sodium. They’re also scientist-backed and developed by licensed medical pros, so you know you're getting the real deal.

I like keeping this 12-pack next to our whiskey collection because that’s what we responsible drinking households do, but it also comes in an efficient 4-pack that’s great for travel or one-off use.

Mongolian Cashmere Ribbed Beanie

Yes, you read that right: cashmere for $30 — your money-smart and quality-obsessed Cap will swoon. This cozy ribbed-knit beanie is made from 100% pure Grade-A Mongolian cashmere (the company partners with factories directly to provide goods at up to 75% cheaper than typical retail) and is unisex, cuffed, and so, so soft.

Hands down one of the best winter essentials you can get for yourself or a loved one, it has a 4.9-star rating, with many happy customers saying how this “comfy,” “perfect” beanie makes a “great gift.” Comes in two sizes and 12 chic colors.

Bespoke Jet Cordless Stick Vacuum With All in One Clean Station

If you're looking to spoil-with-a-capital-S this Cap season (or maybe want an impressive double-whammy gift for their birthday and the holidays), Samsung's latest cordless vacuum, the Bespoke Jet, guarantees a jaw-dropping moment.

It comes with its own Clean Station that empties the dust canister, two removable batteries, and multiple heads, and features the brand's strongest Jet Stick to date, which allows cleaning across multiple surfaces. Its Pet Tool attachment, along with a Combination and Crevice Tool and a Flexible Tool, all stow away neatly — and very satisfyingly — inside its own accessories cradle that also attaches to the station.

At almost $700, this top-of-the-line machine is no casual purchase. But if you're anal about vacuums and cleaning power, as well as want a sophisticated machine that integrates better into a home aesthetic, this might just be the thing to consider over that Dyson.

To wit: Its three colorways are really elegant and are on-brand for your earthy Cap, too, especially this Woody Green.

Capricorn Foiled 2024 Calendar Planner

Make sure your little goal-oriented Capricorn has a place to jot down all their brilliant ideas for the coming year. This hardback 2024 planner is gold-foiled and features metallic accents, with a beautifully illustrated cover by Nisha Sharma depicting the sign of your choice.

The planner comes with yearly, monthly, and weekly spreads — perfect for the overachiever in your life to fill in as the days go by. It also comes in a non-foiled version.

The Bundle

Coffee for the things I can change and whiskey for the things I can't, says every Capricorn ever (well, at least in my head). And for the workhorse goats that are indeed café-powered, introduce them to this groundbreaking coffee machine that’s well up their discerning alley.

The Bruvi is one of the most streamlined and most sustainable single-serve brewers yet. Chock-full of features that, for starters, allow it to optimize the perfect, most precise, great-tasting brew for up to seven different coffee drinks (enjoy coffee, espresso, Americanos, cold brew, iced coffee, infused coffee, and matcha latte, as well as clean hot water — all in eight cup sizes!), it’s also more hygienic, entailing zero daily rinsings or cross-contamination. Its engineering also allows for 40% more coffee extracted than a typical pod, so it’s literally giving more bang for your buck.

Best yet, perhaps, is that it uses B-Pods that break down in landfills faster and leave behind no microplastics (if you know anything about me, it's that I ~hate~ microplastics). It also comes with a 1-year warranty and looks so very Japandi-chic on any countertop.

Signature Lace Original Rise Thong (5-Pack)

Seamless lace might seem like an oxymoron, but not here. These classy thongs feature a no-dig, low-rise waistband that's invisible under clothes and have the right amount of stretch.

I'm always on the lookout for hot yet comfy thongs, and I've found that these pretty much nail that category. Plus, a five-pack is always convenient and the colors (it comes in two assortments) are very date-night-worthy — characteristics that come in clutch when gifting intimates to a Capricorn.

Wine Subscription Box

The Capricorn palate for the finer things is pretty well-regarded, so a wine subscription that keeps their spirits up (literally) is a smart move. Harry & David’s wine subscription supplies your recipient with one red and one white wine bottle each month of the brand’s exclusive Oregon-grown wines.

Not only will they be opened up to new varietals that might delight them, but having a constant monthly rotation ensures their stash is never running on empty.

Venom Go Heat + Vibration Wearable

The downside to being the one that gets things done? Things break down from time to time, and no one knows this better than your hardworking Cap.

This portable heat and massage therapy device from Hyperice (yup, the massage gun folks) gives you relief discreetly and on the go, without the bulk. Because who has the time and tote space for a massage gun all the damn time?

Each kit comes with a pod, a charger, and three reusable pads that can be used up to 20 times each. The pod magnetically attaches to the pad, and you simply stick the pad onto any sore, stiff muscle area, choose any one of three levels of heat or three vibration patterns, and you're good to go — yup, even if that means it’s to somewhere far-flung, as these are also carry-on-approved by the TSA.

I like using mine for period cramps and my pinched shoulder, and since the device easily hides under clothes, it makes things so much more convenient.

Mother-of-Pearl Saturn Necklace

I’ve personally never seen a chicer planet necklace, much less at this price point. Saturn, Capricorn’s no-nonsense ruler, gets its time in the spotlight with this handmade, mother-of-pearl necklace that is at once both minimalist and impactful.

Wherever Saturn is in one's chart is also the area where we take sober, calculated action, hopefully reaping rewards that stay with us for the rest of our lives. This is especially true for Capricorn, who goes through life with a disciplined, unflappable take — let this be a sweet (yet non-cutesy) reminder that they've got this.

The Legendary ‘Vacation’ by Vacation Black Label Candle

Cap season in our neck of the woods means it’s almost as far away from beach season as it can excruciatingly get — and we say almost because thankfully, the folks at Vacation have our backs.

The makers of everyone’s fave throwback-inspired sunscreen products have a candle that, if I may, really does smell like your childhood summers in a jar. Don’t believe us? Just check out its notes of coconut — not cloying, mind you, just perfectly inviting and addictive — mixed with banana, pineapple, pool water, and Lycra (!), and you’ll be reminiscing about those neon-clad poolside romps in no time.

Feel free to spark this baby up every time that S.A.D. hits (guilty). Caps also have a penchant for black-label branding, so this is assured pride of place on their coffee tables or entryways.

Elise Sweater

Fast fashion? Not if your Cap can help it. This classic button-down top is part of a regenerative, carbon-negative wool collection, i.e. production of these sweaters actually removes carbon from the atmosphere. Imagine that! We fully appreciate this nod to thoughtful, slow fashion — and yup, your conscientious Cap will, too.

Apart from the flattering, form-fitting cut, it's a high-end purchase that gives more than it takes. And did we mention the Y2K aesthetic is back?

Plump Up Peptide HA Serum

This amazing hydrating serum from Trinny London contains advanced peptides and hyaluronic acid, which, according to its site, “are the skincare equivalent of restoring pillowy fullness to a well-worn cushion.” I mean, mic drop — I, for one, absolutely do not want my face to look like my ex-roommate’s Ikea futon.

Hyperbolics aside, I’ve also put this through the paces of my extremely dry apartment and can confirm the results are in the superlative. In the interest of science and also of this winter-centric guide, I’ve also tested this on my husband, who is now enjoying his new foray into the world of potent serums. “My face felt so soft and smooth when I woke up,” he said. (Many users apparently agree with him: “Sooo good,” says one, adding, “I would say Plump Up is the best so far. My skin feels amazing and it really does look visibly plumped.”)

TL;DR: Peptide serums are painfully underhyped when it comes to restoring moisture, smoothness, and suppleness, and this one from Trinny London is as good as it gets, without any stickiness. Your winter-born Cap will adore.

2.5mm Magnet Balls

Saturnian signs are system-builders, and this fun magnetic toy is both meta and stress-relieving at the same time, aka perfect for your Cap’s work desk.

Let them have fun de-stressing — or distracting themselves on that important call — by assembling and fiddling with these neodymium magnets, which come in either a set of 512 or 1,000 pieces.

Echo x Getty Manuscript Tarot Silk Square

Caps aren't likely to wear their hearts on their sleeve... but their star sign? That's a different ballgame, especially when via a gorgeous accessory, like this 100% silk scarf.

This 35x35-inch pick from Echo is a collaboration with Getty and features medieval illustrations of each of the 12 zodiac signs, alongside some celestial motifs. It comes in either black or cream and provides just the right touch of quirky charm to a Capricorn's polished wardrobe.

Get to Know Your Capricorn

Ruled by Saturn, the sobering, responsible planet that offers up the exact opposite of Jupiter’s expansive vibes, Capricorns are great at crystallizing and icing things down to their most realistic level. This means that gifts for Capricorns that are most likely to be on their wishlist include anything no-frills yet high in quality and durability (they aren’t big on flash-in-the-pan novelties). They work hard but also love to enjoy the fruits of their labor, so sophisticated yet practical appliances will also appeal to this sensual earth sign, who typically are born with a taste for simple yet useful refineries.

Polished, elegant, and work-savvy, Caps no doubt have a traditional and classic side, but being a cardinal sign, they’re also go-getters, especially in the workplace. Capricorn gifts that help lighten the load (or the mood), help them get even more organized, and reward them for their often-underrated efforts — like that big-ticket luxury splurge, an investment fashion piece, or a personalized planner — will warm their hearts. Gifts that help them optimize their fitness goals are also a great idea; not only does this zodiac sign start off our calendar year, but they also love working (and working out!) smart.
