The holidays are here and as always, it's a mad rush. It seems like everything needed to be done yesterday, from decorating to buying gifts. But instead of hurrying to check things off our list, we should all take a moment for reflection, especially when it comes to presents. Think about the gifts you've given in the last four years. How often do you see your partner still wear or use something you wrapped up? If the answer is “never” or “not often” it's time to make a change. This year, stop going through the motions of buying disposable or lackluster presents. Instead, break that tradition and upgrade your gifts because you truly want to give your loved ones something that makes their eyes sparkle. You want to give them something bold … something beautiful. To that end, we're here with some ideas to help you revamp your gift-giving this holiday season.
For Your Best Friend
How many times have you given her a gift-card and called it good? The person who's been there for you through thick and thin deserves something that lasts a lifetime. Why not gift a gorgeous Shy Creation Pendant? The luscious blue sapphire is beautifully haloed by diamonds that shine brightly in 14-Karat white gold. Blue is also the color of loyalty, which is appropriate for such a devoted friend. Trust us, this will make her feel like a million bucks and you will feel great giving it to her.
For Your Wife
Of course your wife has been gracious about some of those gifts you've given her in the past, including the vacuum. (Seriously though, what were you thinking?) Her love for you is everlasting. With patience and empathy, she demonstrates that love every day. So, ditch things like slippers, vacuums, kitchen appliances and whatever else you were thinking about. Ramp it up with this LAGOS Love Knot. 18-Karat gold caviar beads intertwine with diamonds to create a stunning “knot”, symbolizing the unbreakable bond and eternal connection you share with her. She'll be sure to cherish this gift forever, which is quite a lot longer than a pair of slippers.
For Your Husband
A new tie may be a tried-and-true holiday present for your guy. However, this is the man who has given you his whole heart. When you're down, he makes you laugh and when you're happy he rejoices with you. Plus, he always opens the pickle jar for you. This year, why not step it up with this Omega DeVille Prestige? Classic and elegant in design, this timepiece is made of stainless steel. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the black dial featuring Roman numerals and a date window. A handsome watch for an equally handsome man. It will certainly make him smile and he can wear it every day.
For Your Mom
What have you given your Mom in the past? When you were a kid, home-made cards and fresh flowers were fabulous. Now that you're an adult, cleaning up after the big holiday meal and washing the dishes doesn't count as a present, no matter how much Mom loves that you do this. Now you're old enough to appreciate how much Mom has done for you throughout your life and really want to show her that. This simple yet graceful Jude Frances Link Chain Necklace would be a great way to do so. Chain necklaces are both trendy and timeless. This high polish golden chain link is no exception. Your Mom will be able to wear it with multiple outfits, from casual to formal. This is something that she will really treasure and will last long after the dishes are put away.
For Your Dad
Chocolates, socks, grilling aprons, mugs, goofy ties, bathrobes, special keychains … What has Dad not received when it comes to gifts? Every year during the last minute scramble to find presents, Dad seems to come in last, despite the fact he's always put you first. Well, it's time to change that! This year, get Dad something that is both beautiful and useful: a William Henry Pocket Knife. This folding knife is a unique blend of art and utility, perfect for the distinctive man your Dad is. You could also give him a William Henry Pen. Featuring crushed wood in silver acrylic with trim accents in stainless steel and topaz gemstones, this exquisite pen flows across the page. Your Dad will love these items so much more than any of those disposable last-minute gifts he always seems to receive.
