2016 Gift Guide for the Fashion-Forward Guy

Today, I’ve asked one of my best friends, Amanda, to share a gift guide that she created! Amanda’s husband, Scott, is definitely a fashion-forward guy – he always looks very dapper (a perfect match for his very stylish wife!). You may remember Amanda and Scott from their wedding last year – I posted about it here and their shower here. Amanda is going to be starting a blog soon, and I cannot wait to share details about it.

So, without further adieu, here are some suggestions that Amanda (and Scott!) put together to help you shop for the fashion-forward guy in your life!

2016 Gift Guide for Baby’s First Christmas

I remember when Isla celebrated her first Christmas (around 6.5 months old), family and friends mentioned that it was difficult to come up with fun things to buy her. But let’s get real – at that age, she really only cared about the wrapping paper. I did a gift guide for a one year old (here), but think that gifting a little one for their first Christmas can be about memorabilia, like this gorgeous Paloma’s Nest ornament or this customizable Christmas storybook. And then there’s the numerous Santa items; for example, these PJs, this bib, or these socks.

2016 Gift Guide for the Girly Girl

Today’s holiday guide would make Elle Woods swoon. So. Much. Pink. For any girl in your life that appreciates a pretty poufy swan keychain or the perfect pastel mani, I think these suggestions will suit her just fine.

To start, this Kate Spade jewelry box with the gold bow detail would look good on any dresser, but even better if it had this gorgeous sparkly number or these dainty earrings inside. If she’s a ring collector, I would opt for this pink ‘Pardon My French’ porcelain box I own this Eliza Gran tote, and love it so much that it made a trek across the Pacific Ocean to Australia with us last January. The pink pom-poms are the best.

2016 Gift Guide for the Creative-at-Heart

Happiest Friday in Houston (mainly because I wore a sweater to go running this morning – hallelujah for colder weather!)! Next up in the holiday gift guide series is a round up of fun gifts for your creative friend (which describes a lot of mine!). I am seriously in love with this hustle print and would cry with joy at the sight of all these colorful Sharpie markers in my stocking!

2016 Gift Guide for the Gadget Guy

Today is all about the Gadget Guy, so basically I had a ton of help with this post. Since my readers don’t typically fall into this genre, I’m going to do a bit more explaining today than the previous two days (do you really need me to detail the purpose of a vase?). I think these nine items are super cool, and I’m even including two on my own Christmas wish list!

I’ve got three more gift guides coming up for guys, so if your spouse, dad, boyfriend, guy friend isn’t super techy, have no fear! Hopefully I’ve got you covered in days coming. But for now, let’s dive into these gadgets.

Roomba: This one is a no-brainer. Everyone I know who has a Roomba loves it. You can schedule the time for the Roomba to start, and it goes to work, moving around your house, sucking up bits of dirt and dust. I remember reading about the Roomba in a marketing book at Texas, thinking it was the most robotic and futuristic thing ever, which makes me feel old now that it’s pretty commonplace! This is a gadget everyone needs!
