'Tis the lovliest time of year... Because although the days darken early, the nights illuminate with twinkle lights strung along the cities' avenues. Electric snowflakes float in the air, while buildings wrapped with red bows beckon shoppers forward to their glittering and elaborately decorated storefront windows (a future post in the making). Marking this season's shopping adventure is today – Cyber Monday, the more civilized and cultivated cousin of the notorious Black Friday. And with that in mind, I’d like to offer you a little helpful gift guide for the special ladies and gentlemen in your life.
Ladies
Faux Fur Pullover @ Kate Spade – Very old hollywood, and so warm for those chilly winter nights!
Penguin's classic hardcover novels @ amazon – I love the refined covers of these classic and heartfelt stories!
Artist’s Attache Case @ Anthropologie – Such an elegant confection for the aspiring creative.
Crystal Brulee Bracelet @ J.Crew – The perfect amount of sparkle in a great neutral dusty rose color!
Claus Porto Soaps @ Santa Maria Novella in NYC and London – The scents and packaging are so lovely!
Gentlemen
Country Tweed Sport Jacket @ Barbour – So perfectly English prep!
Vintage Bison Stamp Cuff Links @ Brooks Brothers – Evokes a certain sense of history and quirkiness.
USB Typwriter @ etsy.com – This looks amazing! I kind of want one too!
How to Be a Gentleman @ amazon – Who couldn't use a few tips of the trade!
Library Decanter @ Pottery Barn – So very James Bond! Fill it with his favourite spirit.
Happy Holiday Shopping!
Thanks for the Christmas list :-)
ReplyDeleteI think I will wear the tweed jacket with the buffalo cufflinks while drinking scotch from my decanter in a gentlemanly fashion and typing at my typewritter. Good list.
