Kicking things off with perhaps the most quintessentially Meredith Marks item on Amazon, this faux fur bucket hat. Aside from the fact that she’d totally wear this herself, Marks picked it with her ski friends in mind, because, “When you’re skiing and you get awful helmet hair, you want to put something else on for the après.” A practical queen!
Speaking of après ski, how cute would these Y2K oval sunnies look paired with aforementioned fur hat? “These are chic and change your vibe and look so quickly—it’s an easy buy for literally anyone,” said Marks. Package up the hat and glasses together if you really love them.

Marks and I are headphone twins. I have the same Bose pair and can back her up when she says that they’re comfortable enough to wear on long flights. I can’t help but wonder if she wore them on *that* return flight from Canouan with her cast mates…
“I was thinking this would be a fabulous gift for Seth [her husband] so he can TheraGun me.” Period! Marks has a similar one and said, “It’s so good when someone else does it on you because they go so much more aggressive than you would ever do on yourself.”

For a more low-tech recovery option, Marks, mom of three, says that she uses a foam roller like this one to stay loose. “When I’m feeling like my body is out of whack, I’ll use this on my legs. I’ll lie on it sometimes too; it opens up your chest and stretches you that way,” she says.
When the glam squad clocks out, this is Marks’s can’t-live-without-it tool to achieve her signature slick-straight hair. “If you have any sort of extensions, this makes it so much easier to blow your hair out,” she said. “I can literally do it myself.”

Another one of Marks’s hair secrets? This cult-favorite (and beauty editor-approved) hair oil. In Cosmo’s review of the best Olaplex products, contributor Mary Honkus said that this “liquid gold” formula gives her hair a “glass-like shine with just two drops.” She also says it’s great for reviving two- or three-day-old styles since it helps smooth down frizz and flyaways.

Marks credits her son Brooks for introducing her to the world of meticulous organization. She said the first step is getting a label maker. This one is Bluetooth-connected, so you can prompt it to print from your phone—and it comes with three label tapes to get started.
Marks admits that her mother knows nothing about this virtual reality headset and she’d probably be completely overwhelmed by it, but therein lies the fun. Similarly, our editors love it for a girls’ night in. For the uninitiated, you can use it to play games, travel to far-off destinations, or even unwind with an immersive meditation.

“I love the Polaroid,” she puts it plainly. “It’s chic, it’s cool, it’s a vibe.” This upgraded version has app connectivity where you can manually adjust shooting settings, it’s rechargeable via Bluetooth, and it fits full-size Polaroid film, not the tiny film strips that have been more popular lately. (Fun fact: At Meredith Marks DJ gigs, she sometimes gives out signed Polaroids.)
I chatted with Marks fresh off a DJ set at Alex Cooper’s Unwell Vegas festival, where she was introduced to this electrolyte drink. She said she had it after a night out and that “it gives a little boost.” Obviously, team Cosmo has tried them. This mango citrus flavor was my favorite.

Marks says that she’s been obsessed with Jonathan Adler’s “clever and cool” menorahs for years. Last year, she got the dachshund one, and this year, she’s eyeing this elephant. “I could always use another menorah (who couldn’t). We’re usually at my mother’s house for the holidays, depending when Hanukkah falls, so I feel like it’s the perfect thing to bring for her.”
Housewives need to create content, too! (They’re just like us.) “These are great, you can stick this on your light that you use to film with and it makes life so much easier when you’re on your own.” She thought this one was cool because it also has the mirror built in. “I would probably give this to one of my cast mates because we all know they like to look at themselves.” *cue devious laugh*

Another commonality I share with Madame Marks? The desire to have cohesive gift wrapping under the tree. She’s going with a striped kraft paper this year, while I’m opting for a Ralph Lauren-inspired plaid. Either route, your presents will be the best dressed.
Obviously, DJ Meredith Marks has good taste in audio equipment. This vintage-inspired speaker will exude shelf wealth when styled with books and other collected tchotchkes.

If you’re really looking to win over the Meredith Marks fan in your life, bring along a tin of her Meredith Marks Caviar next time you head over to their place. (My friends and I had a TikTok-inspired at-home caviar night earlier this year and it was so much fun.) Ossetra is generally considered a good caviar for beginners thanks to its mild/nutty flavor profile—the website describes this one as large, medium-firm pearls with a creamy and earthy flavor, best paired with classic blinis.
