Him, Her, Mom, Dad – I got you covered in NAB’s very first Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide. I can’t believe it’s almost Christmas! Christmas is, of course, my and every other blogger’s favorite time of the year. How can you not love the lights, decorations, food, family, and gifts?! Regardless of what you celebrate, one thing we can all agree on is that shopping for the holidays is stressful. A few weeks ago I told Facebook a little secret about my Black Friday habits… talk about stress! So now I know for next year what I definitely won’t be doing so for all you last minute shoppers, here is my
These aren’t gifts for just any Mom, these are gifts for the MILF, the Mean Girls mom, you know, the super “cool mom”. I’m joking but I’m also serious. Just because you’re a Mom doesn’t mean you suddenly let yourself go and don’t care about the finer things in life. If anything Moms should be given extra special gifts, especially those single working mamas out there! It’s a tough job.
I think buying for Dads is like, the hardest thing ever. I never know what to get my Stepdad, Miguel, (his name is really Mike, but I thought Miguel sounded better so now that’s what we call him). I mean the Dads that are fashion forward and trendy are few and far in between so take anything fashion related out of the picture and what are you left with… ugh, a gift card to Home Depot?
This is my favorite part of the holiday gift guide because well, I’m a pro at picking things out for myself and what I like I can pretty much guarantee your BFF, girlfriend, or daughter will like. And no, I’m not bragging, my shopping addiction has just gotten completely out of control so now I can spot something great within minutes. #sadbuttrue
We all have our strengths and mine happen to be shopping and… um… um… blogging about it?
Similar to Dads that special “him” in our lives is also hard to shop for. Lucky for me, Patricio still has clothes from when he was a little surfer dude in high school so I can get away with getting him new clothes… for a man. He also has no clue about style so I can pretty much mold him however I want ::insert evil emoji here::. Just to paint a picture he didn’t own a pair of jeans before he met me… yeah.
Anyway, guys do need more than clothing as gifts which is why I included the rest of the stuff. For all the guys out there – how did I do?
Since it is the holiday season you’ll most likely be attending a few parties and get-togethers this month. And I was always told you should never go to someone’s house empty handed. So for those ladies and gents hosting the party, this guide is filled with what you can get them.
Can you tell I’m obsessed with marble and gold?
Most kids are super easy to buy for. You give them a pot and a pan and they’re happy. But what about the kids with trendy Mommies? You know, the Fancy Nancy, has a stroller for every day of the week, and feeds their kids only organic food type moms? Well, this gift guide is for them. I’m only allowed to poke fun at these Moms because I plan on being one of them. Fancy Nancy Mommy – I’m with you!
In all seriousness, the same old musical, light up toy gets old after a while. So, why not get kids something that is fun for the baby and also aesthetically pleasing for the parents?
Hope you liked my very first 2016 ultimate holiday gift guide and if you’re still looking for the perfect gift check out my Limited Time Holiday Shop, (most things are on sale). What gifts are you giving this year?
