With school resuming, the time honored traditions that accompany it are in full swing as well. Cue the after-class lessons, team sports aplenty and, of course, birthday parties! Whether your child’s invitation comes through your mailbox or inbox, these gift finds will make celebrating the birthday girl or boy as easy as RSVPing.
Happy Thanksgiving week, dear readers! ‘Tis the season for turkey and tracking down a terrific surprise for everyone on your nice list. In the spirit of supporting smaller brands, I wanted to publish a list of places I personally patronize year-round. This isn’t your typical gift guide, rather an old-fashioned rolodex of clever and very chic outposts organized by category. Two categories to be exact: Ladies and babies. Whether you’re browsing for the haute hostess in your life or your prickly niece, there’s an online shop for that.
Good tidings to you, dear readers! Do you still have Christmas gifts to get? If so, I have some different ideas for you. This list is a bit of a departure from most blogger guides as I do not use affiliate links—most of these recommendations are tried and true picks that you can trust I purchase for my own friends and family. I’m also wary of promoting excess consumerism, instead I’m hoping to support small enterprises and champion creative endeavors that will delight this holiday season. There are price points for just about everyone on your list, too. So without further ado, release the reindeers!
