Candle brand Literie partnered with Bravo to release a line of scents inspired by some of the Housewives' most iconic quotes. Choose from a sugary vanilla option named after Teresa and Melissa's unforgettable feud over sprinkle cookies on the Real Housewives of New Jersey, a citrusy pick inspired by Shannon Beador's "nine lemons in a bowl," or this fresh linen scent that might make you belt out Countess Luann's "Money Can't Buy You Class."
I've read so many Bravo-themed books that I could probably write an entire Bravo reading list, but for now, I'll recommend this oral history of the entire Real Housewives franchise, packed with insider information from not only the 'wives themselves but producers, execs, and Andy Cohen himself.

You may recall me mentioning that I spent several months of 2020 working on a Bravo coloring book. Said coloring book was designed by none other than Hello Harlot, complete with 16 pages of art inspired by some of the most chaotic moments in Housewives history. This "Best of" book is available on Amazon, or shop series-specific options from her Etsy shop.
What does it say about me that the only thing I can think of when looking at this hair clip is Dorinda Medley's iconic "Clip! Clip!" scene from the Real Housewives of New York. That being said, gift this rhinestone hair clip to anyone who wants to scream their love for Bravo from the rooftops...err...their ponytail (Dorit Kemsley-style).

Did I just add these to my Amazon cart while working on this piece? Perhaps, but in the words of Atlanta's Sheree Whitfield, "Who gonna check me, boo?" Each pencil is engraved with a classic Housewives quote (my personal fave has be Lisa Barlow's "Honor code, what?").
Pro tip: These pair quite nicely with our Housewives coloring book rec.

Not only does this book include dozens of recipes inspired by everything from "the morally corrupt Faye Resnick" to "Mention It Alllll-fredo," but it's both Housewives and Andy Cohen-approved. As Kyle Richards puts it, “We are always dining on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Sometimes when there is fighting going on, I am thinking, ‘Can we just end this so I can eat please?!’ I am a very good cook and really enjoy it, so I will love making these recipes.”
In need of a stocking stuffer? I'm very into this "Going Home to Watch Bravo" keychain, as it appropriately captures my mood approximately 99% of the time. Not to mention, these hand-stamped keychains come in six different shades, complete with gold foiled lettering.

It might be cold outside this holiday season, but you can keep the "Summer should be fun" vibes going all winter long by schlepping this pack of Loverboys to any holiday gatherings you might be attending with fellow Bravo lovers. Summer House fans have watched Loverboy go from a pipe dream to an actual company, so if you haven't yet sipped on these hard teas, now's your chance to "send it."
My fellow Bravo fans have so much to thank Lisa Vanderpump for, so it's only fitting that we pay tribute to her via prayer candle. After all, without her, we would have never met the SURvers of Vanderpump Rules. Although this candle is unscented, it still creates a nice ambiance for your Bravo viewing sessions.

Where would us reality TV lovers be without Andy Cohen? Probably curled up in a ball binge-watching The Bachelor and lacking the sense of incredible sense of humor native to every Bravo fan. Pay homage to the man who started it all with this embroidered hat, available in a range of colors.
Anyone who knows me well can attest that when I'm tucked into my enclosure room with the Peacock app fired up on my TV and a glass of rosé in hand, I'm not to be bothered. If you're shopping for someone who feels the same, gift them these deeply relatable socks.

No Bravo gift guide is complete without an item or two from Craig Conover's Sewing Down South brand. Southern Charm fans have watched Craig go from a lawyer who lied about taking the bar to an aspiring seamstress to the founder of a pillow brand. Scoop up this blanket, designed in a collab with Craig's GF, Summer House star Paige DeSorbo.
Headed to a holiday party hosted by a Bravo fan? Instead of slapping a ribbon on a bottle of wine and calling it a day, show off your gift-giving prowess (and passion for Bravo) by slipping it in this linen wine bag, emblazoned with Ramona Singer's infamous "Turtle Time" tagline. Bonus points if it's Pinot Grigio.

If your bestie's pet can usually be found accompanying them while they're their enjoying Bravo time on the couch, gift 'em this hilarious hoodie. Just pop in their town or family name for a personal touch. And if their pet isn't a fan of clothes, score a custom bandanna instead.
I legitimately cannot decide which of these Southern Charm coaster is my fave—it's gotta be a tie between "I have no interest in an inferior martini" or "Leisure is what I'm passionate about." No worries if your giftee isn't a Charmer: This shop has coasters for every Bravo show you can think of.
