Holiday Gift Ideas for Girls

The Holidays are approaching and for some it is a season to give and receive. So here is a list for gift ideas (not in any order) for the special femme fatale in your life.

1. Handbag. I personally like bigger bags cause i can carry lots of stuff around while looking stylish. This Christmas I have requested the "Jorja" large in natural colors from Matt and Nat.









2. DVD movies. Dark Knight, Harry Potter, Sex in the City Set are only some titles that might spark some interest.

3. Gift certificate to a hair salon for when i feel a need to change and uplift my looks. I don't have any recommendations for any salons in the Edmonton, AB, Canada region as I am still looking for the right hairdresser.

4. OSX Leopard. For the techie girls you might know, one day they will have to change over to the new operating system for their Mac computer and it might as well be now.

5. Monthly flowers. Fresh flowers is not just reserved for calender events. Maybe have the flowers sent to your sugar mommy's place of work or her home and you will score some brownie points. One of our local flower shop Eden Lilly on Whyte Ave can provide you assistance to all your floral needs.

6. Dummie books. I am not a big reader of fictious books but I always like to read the Dummie book series as they as easy to understand and learn about almost anything. I was looking at what topics are available on amazon.ca and there are many of them in cooking, crafting, language, exercise, etc. But just a warning, be careful of which subject you give her as it might give a different message. Like "Pilates for Dummies" or "Slow Cooking for Dummies" can also mean you think she is fat or she can not cook to save her life.

7. Jewelry. I think for every women, she should always have some essential blingbling. For example, diamond stud earrings and an everyday pendent. So go to your local jeweler and get her the prettiest pair of diamonds you can buy or Swarovski crystal jewelery will do if you have a budget to meet. Just make sure when you have money, you have to replace the Swarovski crystals as nothing can compare to the real thing. If you can, leave them in the instantly recognizable blue and white packaging of Tiffany & Co and she will not stop talking about them till Valentine.

8. Cashmere sweater. They are expensive but give her a classic style and she will sure wear it throughout the year.

9. Lamy pen. They will set you back a few bucks but if you want give her luxury in a pen/pencil, here is your solution. A local stationary store, Notables have all you fancy writing instruments needs. Fountain pens are one of my favorite writing instruments. It also makes her seem more high class despite her chicken scratch that she calls legible writing.


10. If all fails, gift certificates to any shoe or clothing store she frequents. I don't think gift certificates are too impersonal as the amount is in correlations to how much you love her.

Happy Shopping Everyone. Please try not kill any store employees in your holiday rush.
