Gift Pick For Today – A Fun Jewelry Gift For Her
Who wears a watch to tell time anymore, anyone? Well my hand went up but I don’t see many more!
Watches have almost become a thing of the past. They have become a jewelry accessory, like earrings, necklaces, scarves, etc. Except, when you are talking high end watches (but who cares what time it is when you wear a diamond watch like this here)
Anyways, I found this kitty watch today and I just love it so I wanted to share as a great jewelry gift for her.
Crystal-accented cat cuff watch is also a dazzling bracelet! Flip cover opens to reveal the genuine mother-of-pearl face. Easy-to-read-numbers; quartz movement. Silvertone metal. It is inexpensive too!

A unique watch that makes a great present for women of any age, and if she loves cats she will definitely love this watch.
Give Her A Stunning New Outfit For This Wedding Season
This is the height of the wedding season and do you know what that means? Well yes it means so many brides and grooms are working hard to prepare for the big day. But besides that, there are many more people that are going to attend these weddings that are looking for the right outfit to wear.
Well let’s clarify a bit.
The male guests, traditionally, will either put on a suite and tie, or a jacket, dress pants and a tie. Well yes of course they will wear a shirt with it 🙂
The female guests, traditionally, will say they don’t have anything to wear.
They will look for something new that looks outstanding on her. She will fret about what dress, shoes, jewelry and that she must look great but not as outstanding as the bride. That’s one of those difficulties, not out shinning the bride while still looking hot.
So to help you guys who either want to give your wife, or girlfriend, the gift of a new outfit for the wedding, or for you gals who are looking for an outfit for the weddings you are attending.

Gifts That Make Woman Feel And Look Wonderful In Warmer Weather
When warmer weather arrives it seems that men are happy to throw off their jackets, sweaters and pants and slip on tees and shorts.
Not a care in the world.
Some women, not so much.
As a woman I know that when the hot weather arrives many of us cringe. Women are much more concerned with their body image, when it comes to warmer weather, than men.
What women hide under layers or sweaters and jackets in the colder temperatures they hide anymore. She can’t wear that type of clothing as the temperatures rise to hide her body image concerns.
Whether they feel they are overweight, or too thin, the warmer weather threatens their sense of a positive body image.
I have some great gift ideas for her as the warm weather flows in.
But first I would like to tell you a story.
Since I can remember I have had a medical condition that limits my ability to eat and retain calories. It’s not something I like to talk about. I am telling you this now because it has had a huge effect of my body image.
As a teen the girls around me were developing curves. They were attractive, and attracting boys. I was not developing the curves. My waist was small, my hips were small, everything was small. I wanted to hide what I looked liked so I tended to layer clothing to make me look bigger.
I was lucky enough to become friends with a couple of girls who had the opposite problem as me. They had curves, lots of curves. Big hips, big everything. But they felt almost the same as I did. They wanted to hide too. Weight, or lack of it, has a huge effect on all women’s body image.
It was during the adolescence that I learned body image can have such a huge effect on everything in a woman’s life, especially self esteem.
When I started working in the fashion industry, eventually working as a manager in a major fashion chain, I took all the knowledge from that time to helping woman find the clothing that would work for them and make them feel good, no matter what their size. I also worked with women to make the experience fun. It was a mini-makeover experience for many of them. For example, just because you are not petite doesn’t mean you can’t wear bright colors. So moving them away from the drab and into the fab gave them a huge boost in confidence.
So when it comes to looking for a present for the special woman in your life keep in mind that no matter what she may feel about her body image you can give her the gift of acceptance & love. It tells her that you love her just the way she is. How wonderful is that!
As a physical present for the warmer weather, especially at beach time, there are some beautiful cover ups that can not only help her feel more comfortable, and make her look beautiful but the are also fun to wear! Here are a couple of caftans I love.

Whether she is thin or plus sized any of these she would love & will make her look fabulous!
Trending Patchwork Clothing Styles For Her
One of the latest fashion trends for women is patchwork clothing styles.
I just love the trend. It so reminds me of my teens, my hippie era, creating clothes that make you feel good no matter what was mainstream. Taking pieces of clothing and working it into a skirt, or jeans, etc. Or using different pieces of cloth and actually making an item.
The trend is back.
These clothes use different patterns, fabrics, textures that are mixed together to create clothing and accessory artwork to wear.
What fun!
I’m personally crazy about this look, and I bet the woman in your life would love to have some trendy patchwork fashions in her wardrobe this season too!
Check out the wild and wonderful fashions I have found and they are so reasonably priced too.

Gifts For Someone Who Has Everything – Are You a DIY Gift Giver?
Don’t you just love when you get ‘homemade’ presents!
Home made creative presents are so wonderful to receive. They become one of my most cherished possessions. You know how much time, and love. goes into making it.
In this digital age, kids just aren’t learning to explore and develop traditional creative skills to the degree we were at their age. They’re going straight from the playpen to the tablet. Although it’s important for them to pick up digital literacy early on, it shouldn’t be at the sacrifice of other important types of creative and tactile development.
Kids are being handed tablet style computers to amuse themselves before they are able to walk instead of being given creative playthings to develop their finger’s dexterity and their brain’s creative centers. Instead of learning crochet or drawing and painting, young people are texting each other or playing computer games.
Creative hobbies, arts and crafts are also great family activities.
Skills from one generation passed on to the next during precious time spent together, creating a continuous trove of treasures. Treasures to touch and remember and pass along again.
I am thrilled to have in my possession the wonderful creatives that my Mum, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother made.
When I visit Craft Fairs and listen to the stories about how this person learned from their Mom who learned from their Mom and so on… I wonder what these Craft Fairs will look like in the future if we don’t make the effort to nurture the tradition of arts and crafts in the young of today.
Get kids to put their phone or tablet away, break out the beads, yarn, stained glass or watercolors and play together, learn together build some beauty and beautiful memories. It will do parents good to get away from the device screens too!
Kids aren’t the only ones guilty of spending too much time in front of screen (present company excepted of course!)
If you are a veteran ‘do it yourself’ gift giver, especially when it comes to the holiday season, there’s a good chance you have begun planning your projects right now.
If you are new to DIY creative ‘labor of love’ takes time, and time is limited, so best get started on those projects now if you want it to be ready on time.
Yes, a lot of dedication is needed, and time sacrificed, to create homemade memories. Just think of the smile when they see they present you have created for them.
Your efforts are worth every second of it for the joy they feel.
Or, perhaps instead of making something yourself you know someone that loves arts and crafts, is an artist or has hobby. You can find great gift ideas for them here as well!
Have a look at this a page which showcases some fine art, digital art, stained glass art, needle craft and other assorted crafts and hobbies. Check it out here!
Give A Gift That Celebrates Color & Gives Them Energy
I was watching something the other day that showed children playing. All of a sudden it struck me how colorful their outfits were.
Their tops, shorts, dresses, pants, shoes, all bright and alive colors. Children have a wonderful sense of color. They will put all sorts of colors and patterns together. Wear colorful hats, colorful boas, and given the opportunity, lots of colorful makeup. The rejoice in color.
Like many things that surround us in our everyday lives, we tend to take it for granted but color is a huge part of our life. Think about spring and summer and all that blooms. We feel reborn as the green leaves form, flowers in all shades of the rainbow bloom, everything is alive again. It makes us feel good. Color makes us feel alive too!
So why do we tend to tone down our colors as we get older?
Most of us tend to keep our wardrobe to monotone colors because of work. Women may add a flash of color with jewelry or accessories for work, men may add colorful ties or belts, but unless you work in retail, or an artistic environment, we tend to keep our colors low key.
Don’t be afraid of color.
Color helps when times are hard.
When you are looking for a sympathy or a get well present color should be part of what you want to look for. Color and lift the spirit, even if subconsciously. It can help, even in small ways, to help someone feel better.
Here’s a bit of info on color psychology that I thought would be interesting.
The meaning of color varies and can have different meanings is different cultures
- Black is the color of authority and power. It is popular in fashion because it makes people appear thinner.
- White symbolizes innocence and purity. White reflects light and is considered a summer color.
- Red is the most emotionally intense color and stimulates a faster heartbeat and breathing. It is also the color of love
- Blue is one of the most popular colors. It causes the opposite reaction as red. Peaceful, tranquil blue.
- Green symbolizes nature. It is the easiest color on the eye and can improve vision. It is a calming, refreshing color.
- Yellow is considered an optimistic color. Cheerful sunny yellow is an attention getter.
- Purple it the color of royalty, connotes luxury, wealth, and sophistication. It is also feminine and romantic.
- Brown is the color of earth and is abundant in nature.

Celebrate them by celebrating color!
If you are looking for an apparel or accessory present for your woman who has everything then look at apparel choices that will give them energy, that can help her live a happier life through a positively infused environment. Color will lift their spirits, and elevate instead of dulling their senses and mood. It also projects the lift in spirit to people that seeing them wearing the colorful outfit.
You can find colorful home furnishings and accessories too. Color in furnishings are turn a mundane room into a lively room. It actually doesn’t have to be a lot of color. Even a couple of colorful pillows will add more energy to a room. Or a colorful bedspread can add a totally new feel to the bedroom Give something of color that can make such a difference inside or outside her home.
I personally believe color energy, in clothing, furniture, pillows, shoes, and so much more is a powerful force in our lives.
It’s time to give up the drab and celebrate the rad.

Oh I so understand that, being a woman myself 🙂
So you are looking to find a present for the woman who love clothes, who seems to have it all, can be a big challenge. You may think you don’t know what she likes, and afraid to take that step because her closet is full. Don’t be… read on.
Let me give you some pointers:
First, pick one piece that you know she would like, whether a pair of designer jeans, a leather jacket, a silk skirt, a cashmere sweater, you get my drift. Just find one piece you know she will like. (If that is hard keep reading.)
Second, if it is a leather jacket look for leather pants to go with it, or if it is a silk skirt, look for a cashmere sweater to go with it. The extra piece can make a huge difference with the present, and to her joy.
Third, if you are okay with picking up a basic item, but not so ‘comfy’ picking up another piece of apparel for her (it might not match!!), then look for a great pair of shoes that work. (Did I hear a scream? No worries, got shoes covered too just read on.)
Fourth, okay guys I hear you saying “fourth??”, this one is easy. If you are not sure how to even start with the first piece of apparel for your women’s gift then let me show you what you can do.
