Remember Oprah’s Favorite Things list? It was an event that took place every holiday season on her daytime talk show. Studio audiences would hold their breath as they hoped Oprah would bestow some of her favorite things onto them. Usually Oprah would handpick a particular studio audience to receive these extravagant gifts.
Whether it was an audience full of teachers or soccer moms, it usually went like this — Oprah would announce that it was time for her favorite things, and the studio audience would promptly lose their minds, and made GIFs like this exist.
And this.
And we can’t forget the men either.
Basically everyone went nuts for Oprah’s goodies.
When Oprah’s daytime talk show went off the air, we said goodbye to a lot of things — Oprah belting out everyone’s name, her awkward hairstyles, and her epic side eye, but most of all we said goodbye to people reacting to her Favorite Things list. While we’ll always have the GIFs, we’ll never truly be able to recapture the joy of watching people lose their minds. Despite all of this Oprah still curates a yearly list of her Favorite Things, and 2014 is no exception.

This year Oprah’s Favorite Things, which is listed in her December issue of O Magazine , spans a list of 72 items, all ranging from cashmere hoodies to fuzzy slippers. If there’s any doubt that these items were Oprah tested, O tells readers, “I tasted, I tested, I sniffed, I touched, I lotioned, I potioned, I snuggled, I brewed, I steeped, I read, I shared, I dared, and then, I did it all again…and again…and again.”
Here’s a few fabulous things that made Oprah’s list.
1. Tory Burch Reva Double Wrap Watch
This item is listed at $395 and is available for purchase at Tory Burch .

Here’s Oprah’s thoughts on the beats headphones.
“These Beats by Dr. Dre Studio Wireless headphones and the matching Beats Pill (a.k.a. speaker) in glossy gold make me want to get my dance on. And we’re the first magazine to have them! Both items are Bluetooth enabled and shockingly lightweight—and will sound as good as they look for years to come.”
3. Ginger Beauty and Wellness Collection – Triple Play

This body collection was originally listed for $265, but is now 10 percent off with Oprah’s code “OPRAH.”
“When it comes to gifts, three is the perfect number—generous without being overwhelming. Which is why I love this set, featuring pink Fijian ginger three luxurious ways: as a powdered tea, a body scrub and a bath soak.”
4. Tea Ritual Set – The Big Steep

This item was originally listed for $90, but is now available for 20 percent off with the code “OPRAH.”
“This set has everything you need for teatime: a teamaker, two glasses (I lobbied hard to get the extra-large size exactly right!), and Teavana Oprah Chai tea. Well, almost everything—splash of almond milk not included.”
5. Electra Loft 7D Ladies’ bike – Aluminum 7-Speed Bicycle

This awesome item is a bit expensive and is listed at $550.
“If you can’t get to a SoulCycle class (my favorite workout!), this comfy, easy-to-handle, seven-speed bike, available in two stylish colors, is a great way to stay in shape while keeping your carbon footprint under control.”
