It's a tried and true gift for a reason: coffee accessories are simply kitchen essentials, whether you are in the market for a new espresso machine or simply want to contribute to a loved one's mug collection.
When it comes to the former, we are taking inspiration from Khloe Kardashian, whose choice of espresso machine came to light in Poosh's Kardashian-Jenner holiday gift guide.
Kardashian's espresso maker of choice is the SMEG 50's Style Retro Manual (available on Williams-Sonoma), a classy and compact piece. 'This machine is so easy to use, and the vintage aesthetic makes it a timeless addition to any kitchen,' she states on Poosh's website. The machine's '50s-inspired aesthetic makes it clear why it's a hit with design-lovers (Kardashian included), but a closer look at its specification shows there's more to this maker than its good looks.
This space-saving espresso maker is Kardashian's coffee machine choice, and it's easy to see why. With its retro design and gorgeous cream colorway, it is as beautiful as it is functional.
Beloved by retro enthusiasts, SMEG is coveted for its toaster and refrigerators, all of which come in palatable colorways and curved shapes. The espresso machine is much the same, with features that are primed for the coffee lover.
This model brews single, double, and long drinks, with simple, backlit buttons and dual functionality to choose drinks and adjust preferences. It takes pods and coffee grounds, making it super versatile, and it also features a steam wand for cappuccinos, lattes, and beyond.
While Kardashian's choice is the timeless cream shade, it also comes in black, pink, red, blue, green, and white, leaving plenty of options for those who are interested in brighter shades. It's available on Williams Sonoma or via Amazon here – but the last-minute shopping doesn't end there. Our editors have curated some accessories to sit alongside the maker in your cafe corner (or on your countertops) long after the festive season concludes.
Who doesn't need another mug in their cabinet? Especially when it's designed by another H&G-favorite celeb, Ayesha Curry. We love this sweet set of speckled ceramic mugs for the perfect celeb-approved way to enjoy your coffee. We day dare say it may even make mornings more bearable.
