Gift Guide: for the ladies


Cozy. That is what I want to give and that is what I want to receive. Perhaps it is because I was just up in Woodstock, VT celebrating one of my best friends weddings and the land was blanketed in snow. And although we have flurries outside of our window today, we have yet to have the first real magical coating of the white stuff. Either way I think that the cozy theme is one that fits many lovely ladies on your list.

So onto the gift guide.

Candles. They are wonderful to receive and to give. But I do find that sometimes at the holiday season everything becomes saturated with faux gingerbread smells and pretend pine tree. I like to stick with the simple, classic smells and one of my favourites is the Swedish Dream Sea Salt Candle. The clean aroma is enveloping not overwhelming.

Infinity scarves. I love these. They fit so snuggly under your winter jacket and take no time to pop on and off. And there are so many on the market you do not need to break the bank.

Booties are great. They keep your toes warm and they look great with dresses and with jeans. Sam Endelman Petty Boots are the perfect height and the zippers make them super easy to get on and off. The black suede is classic but they come in an array of colors. Yay, for choices.

Long, drapey necklaces are a great compliment to a holiday party dress or your t-shirt and jeans. And because it is made of brass it will oxidize over time creating a unique effect.

What is a better way to carry a little Springtime flowers around in your pocket? This Moorea Seal iPhone case is made of pressed flower hidden under a resin seal creating a beautiful effect.

And of course a cozy gift list would not be complete without a sweater. And this beautiful classic Madewell sweater has a twist. Not only is it color-blocked but it has a sweater has a zipper in the back allowing it to change from a classic style to a swing style in just a second.
