TTT Holiday Gift Guide: For the Guys!

I realize most people are probably finishing up their holiday shopping as Christmas is only 10 days away, but for those of you who are still looking for a great find for your guy I have some fun options in our last installment of the TTT Holiday Gift Guide: Gifts for the Guys!

1. A truly delicious scent for him in a "cool" leather bottle that doesn't scream out: high maintenance!

2. For the guy who is sick of hearing about whole wheat pasta..."Eat Like A Man"

3. A functional man bag that is both easy on the eyes and light on the guy.

4. Perfect for the techie - a Polaroid digital camera with the added bonus of instant Polaroid printing!

5. A classic plaid scarf - because it seems when it comes to scarves men refuse to buy these things for themselves!

6. Give them the gift of design - a Taylor Stitch shirt they can custom design for themselves...

7. Always a sucker for a bow tie and a holiday inspired one at that!

8. A great shoe for them to kick around in...

9. A little humor to hold all that "dough" or "bacon" 

10. Stripes plus socks = no brainer 

TTT Holiday Gift Guide: For Her

My personal favorite gift guide - the one for all of the lovely ladies (including yours truly!). Whether large or small these gifts are sure to put a smile on every lucky recipient's face...

1. Love the coral and tan combo on this textured leather purse - it is also the perfect size to transition her from day to night. 

2. I tried this cashmere eye mask on and it is absolute heaven! A sure thing...

4. A soft and yummy short robe will be appreciated by all!

5. The perfect tote for traveling or running around town - plus a little leopard always goes a long way!

6. These wallets come in an array of stunning colors and can also double as a handheld clutch for a night out and about.

To The Tens Holiday Gift Guide: For the Home

Whether buying a hostess gift or gift for a loved one, a piece for the home is always a great bet. Who doesn't love receiving an insanely delicious candle, punchy cocktail napkins or a beautiful coffee table book. Here are my picks for Holiday Gifts for the Home...

1. The perfect ice breaker tray - a great addition to any cocktail table or bar. 

2.  A Rosemary Tree in a delightful galvanized pail is sure to be a hostess favorite. 

3. Katie Ridder Homes: my favorite new design book of 2011 - stunning images that even non-design savvy folks will find inspiring. 

4. Mr & Mrs cocktail glasses - I have had my eye on these guys for awhile and may just have to scoop them up now that I am a future Mrs...

5. Orchid candle snuffer - such a great display piece when not in use!

6. Chic desk calendar with gold bamboo stand - sure to dress up any desk space.

7. Spruce Tree Diptyque candle - perfect scent for those of us who don't have an actual Christmas tree this year (I burn mine nightly with Christmas carols playing - Christmas in a pinch!)

8. Hand blown glass matchstrikers - one of those things that everyone would love to have, but doesn't want to buy for themselves.

9. Monogrammed cocktail napkins in festive red linen (a little personalization always goes a long way!)

Can you hear me now?

The weather in New York seems to have gotten the memo that it is December overnight and I am frantically dragging out all of my winter accessories. One of my biggest annoyances in the winter is that my iPhone does not like to cooperate with my gloves. My poor right hand is usually sacrificed to the blustery wind so that an email or phone call can be made while on the go. That is why I was thrilled to hear about Echo Touch Gloves. Available in multiple colors, styles and fabrics these are designed to work with all of our numerous touch screen devices. My right hand is going to be very toasty this season!

p.s. Holiday Gift Guides are coming next week!

p.p.s. Wouldn't these gloves make an amazing stocking stuffer?? (hint, hint)
