The holiday season has just kicked off and Oprah Winfrey has already spoken out.
The 67-year-old media mogul’s digital magazine published its annual gift guide "Oprah’s Favorite Things" for 2021, which feature commercial products that have reportedly received Winfrey’s stamp of approval.
This year’s list is separated across 10 shopping categories, including style, cozy, home, kitchen, beauty, tech, pet food, children and books and writing. Some of Winfrey's gift recommendations come from recognizable celebrity brands while others come from small, minority-owned businesses.
