Well, it finally happened. We got the dump of snow that everyone secretly hoped would never happen. The kind that grounds planes, snarls traffic and sends us scurrying inside to slurp steaming bowls of soup. But why avoid the inevitable? We know the cold, snow and slush are coming, so why not make the most […]

As you may be able to tell from the cards, candy and chocolate already filling store shelves, Mother’s Day is fast approaching. The yearly challenge of finding the perfect gift before May 12 is officially upon us. This year, instead of getting your mother the standard scented candle (this one smells like coffee!), take a peek at our selection of thoughtful gifts for mom.

For the mother with a passion for style, jewellery always does the trick, and it doesn’t have to be as expensive as you may think. The ultimate statement necklace for under $100? Done. We’ve thought beyond the little blue box and selected unique clutches, sunglasses that match mom’s unique style.

gift ideas for women »

Somehow, shopping for the leading ladies in our lives often proves to be the hardest. The challenge for Christmas gift ideas is to be creative, on trend, and meaningful—not the easiest task, but a necessary one. If you’re shopping for your girlfriend, wife, sister or mother, it’s essential to make the gift matter and worth every penny spent.

For Christmas 2012, we’ve dreamt of all things lavish and luxe that can double as a satisfaction to a women’s fashion craving as well as functional piece in her every day life and they are anything but traditional. We know that diamonds have been declared a girl’s best friend, but this year we’re thinking outside of the little blue box and selecting gifts that show creativity. We’ve opted for lush fur pieces that will keep her warm all winter, geometric shaped cuffs that will reinvent the arm party, and even a onsesie that just begs to be taken to a ski resort. These are the pieces that will win a woman’s heart.

Thinking creatively about holiday gift ideas for men, for us, means appealing to his five senses. It can be your brother, boyfriend, husband or dad on your Christmas 2012 gift list, but our trendy ideas are sure to gain a man’s stamp of approval. Alcohol, socks, and sweaters have been tried and tested gifts for as long as we can remember for gifts for men, but this year we’re taking the basics and adding a twist.

Christmas is often the most stressful time of the year for many people. Even more so for those who decide to host the cocktail parties, the dinners, and the new years bashes (hats off to them). Because it’s a party faux pas to show up empty handed—especially when someone has spent hours preparing—we’ve thought of creative Christmas hostess gift ideas for those who bare the grunt of the work.

The bonus of shopping for a friend or family member who is constantly having people over, is that a gift that works as a thank you for planning a holiday party is also useful to their everyday life. Give them gifts that will help them relax after the fete dies down like a red wine and chocolate set or a scented candle that will make the rest of post-party worries melt away. From Cooking with Siracha to the now-classic Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty coffee table book, these items will look beautiful in a new apartment or well lived in home.

We all may have our proclivities, but we all certainly don’t fit into stereotypes based on the things we like. Sure, that makes us unique, but also makes so many of us so darned hard to buy for! Since we think most would agree that buying gifts for Father’s Day reaches the top of the difficulty scale, we’ve put together 20 refreshing gift ideas that would please many a difficult daddy.

You can’t tell, but we wrote this with a British accent. That’s how excited we are for the nuptials of Prince William and Kate Middleton this Friday (has our month-long countdown taught you anything?) There was a point in time where Will’s “I do” might have sent us into the depths of despair with visions of our could-be life of polo matches, fancy hats and royal-crested pinkie rings crumbling before us. These days though, our royal loyalties lie with that crush-worthy bad-boy Harry, so for now, we’re totally game for rising at 6am to watch the event of the century along with the rest of the world. For those of you who’d like to join in full spirit, we’ve prepared a guide to the essentials you’ll need to host your own themed party. May the festivities begin!
