Last Minute Gift Idea!

Airplus Spa Footies are to die for! While keeping you warm, they moisturize your feet with aloe and vitamin e. They come in three different colours - pink, white and purple. These ultra-moisturizing socks are super-soft and very comfortable. They ride considerably low on your ankle, too, wich is great because you can easily manage to wear them with many types of shoes without them puffing out over the rim of your kicks. They are conveniently thin as well. They are really warm and are great last minute stocking stuffers!

Scarf Galore

Scarves are a great way to add some colour and warmth to an outfit!! Usually, if you wear a monotone coloured outfit like whites, blacks and greys and then throw in a coloured or patterned scarf it can really add that extra OOMPH. As well, as the temperature slowly but surely decreases, scarves can really warm you up. You can just wrap it around twice with the ends hanging in front of you on either side, or sometimes I like to wrap it around partially, flattening it out and covering my shoulders. Scarves are hot accessories and are a great way to warm up this winter season, so don't hesitate to grab one on your way out the door tomorrow morning. As well, scarves are terrific stocking stuffers!! Snatch them up before it's too late!

Nice Nails!

One of my personal favourite nail colours is a dark red, or sometimes a dark purple. GOSH Cosmetics has this shade of deep purple that adds dark sophistication. Nail polish colours are hard to choose from, especially when the colour drastically changes from when it's wet and when it's dry. When I go to buy some nail polish, I tend to pick out several colours, about 3 or 4, and do a little dab on my nails. I sometimes do two coats, just to get a real feel of what the colour will look like. After waving my hands around frantically for a moment or two until the polish dries, I make my choice (usually after consulting the person I am with). This shade looks very good with many colours, including black. Nail polish colours can also tell a little bit about your mood or personality. In the summer, I usually wear vibrant colours like bright turquoise, but now in the winter seasons this dark colour can be very flattering.

Oh, Christmas...?

With the holidays fast approaching, holiday shopping is something that we all need to get out of the way. Something that is always a great gift is a gift card to your store of preference. That way, the receiver doesn't have to pretend to like that granny sweater that's 3 sizes too small you were contemplating on purchasing. They can pick out something that they'll really like. Money by itself is okay, but always seem to make you look like you someone who couldn't be bothered. As well, as the weekend come rushing up from behind, try to got shopping as soon as possible. It won't be nearly as stressful as if you wait until the last minute. As well, there is much more variety and almost all the stores are still in-stock.

Buying something like nail polish or a game are great gifts too, if you know the person you are getting presents for well enough. That way you don't worry about whether or not it will fit. Gifts such as those are always a safe bet.

So get up off your butt and get out there shopping!!
