Here at New York Post Shopping, we’re all about the insights. Even more so, we’re interested in how you — our readers — shop (and what you’re truly wanting to buy).

We’ve reviewed products en masse, compiled lists and lists of gift guides and consistently research online shopping trends. And, behind the scenes, we’re digging through search statistics to ensure we’re reporting on what you’re most interested in.

Enter Google Shopping’s Holiday 100 — a comprehensive list curated by the daily-used search engine that’s jam-packed with insights, must-have gifts and more. In short, it’s pretty much what we’re geeking out on this holiday season.

According to Google Shopping, “41% of shoppers find holiday shopping difficult because they need more ideas of what to give” and “23% of shoppers find holiday shopping difficult because they feel uninspired.”

To that, we say no more.

Last year, New York Post Shopping readers were all about this list and now, it’s even better. From lab-grown jewelry to human dog beds (yes, you read that correctly), see what’s all-the-rage in the here and now.

Click to jump to a specific category:

Hats off to Carhartt, the ultimate outdoorsy brand that’s always a win to receive for the holidays. According to Google Shopping, “Carhartt beanies were the top-searched beanie in the past 12 months.”

Everyone loves a good pair of slippers, and it’s no surprise the practical, cozy shoes continue to be shopper-loved. “Search interest in women’s slippers spikes every December,” Google Shopping notes. Hm, a good gift idea for women, we suppose?

This all-around sling bag pick is one of the internet’s most-searched items. “Search interest in UNIQLO’s Round Mini Shoulder Bag reached an all-time high in 2023. Plus, there’s a good selection of other colors you’ll be wanting to travel with.

For a tote above the rest, this one takes the cake. “The top-trending tote brand of the year was Marc Jacobs,” Google Shopping told us, and you’ll appreciate the designer’s carry-all comes in a luxe offering of shades in that decadent smooth texture.

We love personalized gifts around here and, apparently, so do shoppers nationwide. “Search interest in engravable necklaces went up over 5,000% in June,” according to Google Shopping — a clear indication that simplicity is at its all-time-peak.

Google searches prove that timing is everything. “Search interest in Seiko watches dials up every December,” the search interest told us, likely because men’s watches make wonderful gifts for your boyfriend or husband (or, the man in your life, in general).

It’s about time your snow boots received a major improvement. “Interest in Solel’s Kinetic Caribou Snow Boot kicked up over the past 12 months,” per Google Shopping, and we love how the pair comes in a versatile array of colors to choose from.

Simplistic, minimalistic jewelry isn’t going anywhere, and the proof is right here. “Mejuri is the top-searched sustainable jewelry brand of the past year,” Google Shopping notes, and we stand behind all of its stunning pendants, hoop earrings and more 100%. Plus, the brand is perfect gift idea for your wife.

This year, neoprene had everyone’s back. “Search interest in Dagne Dover’s Neoprene Backpack doubled in the past year.” Not only that, but it’s one of our personal favorites (hello, work bag) and is one of the best women’s backpacks we rounded up.

What’s more, you’ll appreciate how comfortable it is to lug around and adore all of its wonderful shades. Multiple size options are available as well.

The saying “sustainable diamonds are forever” hasn’t rung truer than it has in the past year. According to Google Shopping, “search interest in lab-grown diamond tennis necklaces doubled in the past 12 months.”

These #TBT pants are making a run for their money again. According to Google Shopping, “the search ‘how to style parachute pants’ ballooned 5,000% this year.” – a testament to how people like things loosey-goosey these days, much like the wide-leg pants trend that hit the internet last year.

Who knew a bag that looks synonymous with a pair of Crocs would garner an impressive amount of height. All jokes aside, this carry-all is both convenient and fully washable and, per Google Shopping, “searches for Bogg Bags reached an all-time high in 2023.”

We’re the first ones to tell you that when the cherished lululemon Belt Bag comes back in stock, everyone drops what they’re doing and runs to the brand (like moth to flame: shopping edition).

“Searches for lululemon’s Everywhere Belt Bag shot up 650% this year,” per Google Shopping, and we’ve been there through every second of monitoring its inventory (truly). After all, it’s the belt bag that — as its name suggests — takes you everywhere.

We’ve been following this particular pair of shoes for the vast majority of 2023, and can back up Google Shopping by noting this pair has the it-factor. “Searches for Dr. Scholl’s Time Off Sneaker leapt 5,000% this year,” the search engine shared.

This Amazon best-selling product doesn’t only have the it-factor; it has the growth factor. “Searches for hair-thickening rosemary oil grew to an all-time high in 2023, with MIELLE as the top-trending brand,” according to Google Shopping.

According to Google Shopping, “search interest in Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm spiked 900% this year.” Probably all from the New York Post Shopping team, TBH.

We reviewed the Dyson Airstrait this year and, since its advent, predicted it would be a Google-trending product. Alas, here we are — and it’s still the product we use on the regular. Though we still love the much-hyped Airwrap, this two-in-one product is both a blow dryer and a hair straightener. Who knew?

If there’s anything we’ve been obsessed with this year, it’s all things blow dryers and blow dryer brushes (we’ve, quite literally, reviewed the lion’s share).

On that sentiment, “searches for the Shark Hair Dryer tripled this year,” per Google Shopping. Pro tip: purchase a heat protectant to come along with.
