Beauty Advent Calendars!
BEAUTY ADVENT CALENDAR time….the best time of the year :). These make the BEST beauty gifts for her. I surprised my girls and did the Sephora Beauty Advent Calendar and the Revolve Beauty Advent calendars last year and it was a hit! The DIOR Advent Calendar is a whooping $750 and just fabulous. The Kiehl’s box or Molton Brown Box would be a great gift for your Mother-In-Law. Drop a hint to your hubbie and ask for the Charlotte Tilbury advent calendar or Liberty Advent calendars. These make the best birthday gifts for her or a Christmas gift on December 1st!
Amazon Dupes (Fall version)
Hi Friends! Your Fall Amazon Dupe round up is here! I know we all love a good deal on the fall fashion you need and will be wearing into winter. So many great Amazon gifts below for everyone on your list. I have included great LuLu Lemon dupes, Spanx Lounge Wear dupe and Free People dupes in this post. Don’t pay full price for Eberjey jammies when you can pay half the price!
Tween Gift Ideas!
My Tween Gift Guide is here! Tween gifts are fun because they still enjoy playing outside and being creative without technology (aside from the gamers). Here’s a little breakdown of gift ideas by each type of tween. Load up on these tween gifts for their birthday or start thinking ahead for Christmas.
Amazon Dupes (Spring Version)
My last Amazon dupe guide was such a success I wanted to post another one that’s perfect for great summer gifts. I have included lots of great LuLu Lemon dupes like this skirt or men’s shirt. The Free People dupes are so much cheaper like this one piece or shirt. Some great men’s gifts for Father’s Day would these workout shorts or cooler. Still looking for a graduation gifts? Love this barefoot dreams dupe or affordable roller suitcase. Get Gifting!!
Teen Holiday Gift Guide!
TEEN GIFT GUIDE IS LIVE! SO MANY GREAT OPTIONS FOR THE TEENS ON YOUR LIST. YOU KNOW I INCLUDE A GAME AND BOOK ON EVERY LIST BECAUSE THEY ARE ALWAYS KIDS IN OUR MINDS. YOUR OLDER TEENS CAN USE THIS SOFA OR WEEKENDER FOR THE FUTURE! MAYBE YOU HAVE A YOUNGER TEEN THAT WOULD LOVE THIS LIGHT PROJECTOR OR FUN LAMP FOR THEIR ROOM. MY TEENS WANT A NEW PHONE, THESE SPLITS59 LEGGINGS, THE GOLF BAG AND THIS BARBOUR JACKET.
Tween Holiday Gift Guide!
TWEEN GIFT GUIDE IS LIVE! IN MY MIND THE TWEEN AGE GROUP IS 9 TO 12 OR 13 YEARS OLD. OBVIOUSLY A PHONE IS ON ALL OF THEIR LISTS AT THIS AGE. I STILL THINK THEY LOVE TO PLAY OUTSIDE AND ENJOY CREATIVE PROJECTS SO HOPEFULLY SOME OF THESE GIFT IDEAS JUMP OUT AT YOU. HOW FUN WOULD A NEW GUITAR AND LESSONS BE? I KNOW I WILL BE BUYING A FEW OF THE SKIRTS (cheaper than Gold Hinge) and the FRUIT FACE MASK FROM MY OWN LIST. THE VINTAGE TEAM SHIRTS AND HOODIES ARE FUN FOR YOUR SPORTS FANS.
