These days, online shopping is catching up to, if not surpassing, the volume of in-store shopping, to the surprise of no one. Especially for those of us who do not have easy access to transportation, or who are housebound, physically disabled, or who may otherwise feel uncomfortable about making a shopping trip via public transit. Fortunately, many businesses offer gift guides to assist online shoppers to make the best decisions about the gifts that would be perfect for their list of recipients. Below are a few for your consideration.

One of my favorite gift guides is brought to you by Access World. Author J. J. Medaugh of A T Guys {@ATGuys} curated a great list of items in several tech, gadget, and game categories. Check out the Access World gift guide here.

For the past few years, Alexandra Herold, founder of Patti and Ricky, has published a gift guide filled with thoughtful, functional, and fashionable gifts for people of all abilities. Whether you are shopping for adaptive swimwear, lingerie, shoes, or jewelry, you’ll find an incredible collection ofapparel and accessories at www.pattiandricky.com.

Emily Ladau offers a disability gift guide featuring artists and craftspeople who, in most cases, have created products specifically for people with disabilities, or who are disabled themselves. Find Emily’s disability gift guide here. While there, check out past gift guides, which are linked on the same page.

Lifestyle blogger Luke Sam Sowden has a holiday gift guide just for the guys. Luke is a prolific blogger who writes about food, fashion, fragrance, and luxury gifts from prestige brands. Follow Luke on Instagram at www.instagram.com/lukesamsowden or on Twitter at {@lukesamsowden}. This year, Luke has a gift guide for the guys.

The Fashionability Channel podcast is your guide to accessible style. Emily Davison of www.fashioneyesta.com and I co-host the podcast, where we chat about all things style and beauty, especially as it pertains to people with disabilities. You’ll find a few holiday podcasts on topics from holiday stress-relieving self-care strategies to stocking stuffers. Subscribe to The Fashionability Channel podcast today.

Finally, I created my own holiday gift guide featuring jewelry and accessories by Elegant Insights Braille Creations, which I posted on my own blog, Sparkle On. Find products organized by price that are perfect for all the friends and loved ones on your gift list. The perfect holiday touch: Gifts of braille jewelry.

Keep in mind that in most cases, this weekend is likely your final opportunity to shop at many of these retailers, because shipping slows as the burden of moving literally billions of packages overwhelms parcel delivery services. This weekend is your last chance to shop til you drop…at least, online.

I wish you a very merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, joyful winter solstice, and a happy and healthy 2020.

See you next year!
