All she wants for Christmas

Filed under Uncategorized by Vanessa at 11:55 am

If you’re fashion challenged but find yourself having to buy a gift for someone who lives and breathes the latest trends, here are a few ideas for Christmas.

“The Lucky Guide to Mastering Any Style.” This follow up to the “Lucky Shopping Manual” is a must-have for those who know how to dress and those who don’t. Recommended retail price is $30 but you can find it on sale for less than $20.

Boston sports ware. Forget the extra large jerseys and unflattering sweatshirts. Head to Bob’s Stores or Walmart to pick up Red Sox and Patriots gear that isn’t made to fit a large man. The best part is many of the items also come in pink. You’ll have to head to the store’s for the apparel though, since neither store offers the items online.

Stemless wine glasses. So much better than their fragile stemmed counterparts, they look good and provide a sturdier foundation. This set is made from recycled windshield glass and sells for $22 for a set of two.

I love shoes tote or cosmetic bag from Payless. They are $19.99 and $12.99 respectively and oh, so cute. Choose from black or tan in this style or check out one of the many other designs.

The World Domination Tour All Access Backstage Beauty Collection from Two Faced at Sephora. If your fashionista loves makeup, this is a great deal. There’s $150 worth of makeup packed into a stylish jewelry box type case. And at $34, it’s a steal.

Chickies Cleavage Coverage. A genius idea, this top turns a low cut shirt into work wear. They retail for $33 each.

A mix CD of fashion related songs. “Apple Bottom Jeans” by T-Pain, RuPaul’s “Supermodel,” “Dress You Up in My Love,” by Madonna and “Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend” (there are several versions to choose from on this one) would make for a very interesting compilation.

And for those of you who need to buy for tech junkies, check out Tech Stop in the Thursday Telegraph on Dec. 11 for some gift ideas that are reasonably priced.
