The changing leaves and dropping temperatures mark the return of Oprah Winfrey’s highly anticipated Favorite Things list, now unveiled for 2024. This year, Winfrey has curated an array of gifts ranging from self-care products and cozy apparel to innovative tech gadgets and essential kitchen items.
In a nod to her celebrity connections, the list features selections from high-profile figures such as Shay Mitchell’s Beis luggage, Kim Kardashian’s Skims loungewear, and Duchess Meghan’s As Ever lifestyle brand. Winfrey has also shared personal insights, including her favorite fragrance and the beginnings of her journaling journey.
Notably, this year’s list prioritizes diversity and small businesses, with 60% of the featured products coming from small enterprises and over 50 brands owned by women. The total number of selections is 112, a slight decrease from last year’s 116 offerings. Winfrey expressed her intention: “Every year I set out to find gifts that feel just right and carry meaning. My hope is that these gifts will help you celebrate the people who light up your life—and maybe add a little sparkle to your own.”
The price range of the items varies significantly, starting from affordable options just under $20 to high-end purchases like a $2,200 TV, one of the priciest items ever included.
