Holiday Gift Guide Edition Two: Dream Presents (A.K.A. Insane Gifts That We May Never Buy But That Is Fun to Dream About)

Last year one of my most successful posts was this one.  People really seemed to like it so I decided to give you yet another round of ridiculously amazing gifts this year.

This beautiful dress from Valentino comes in at a whopping $5,880.  As I am not a celebrity, I may never wear a garment so very expensive.  But I do dream, as do you I am sure, and hey, what girl wouldn't feel like magic in this dress?

This watch is worth 15 million dollars...................so, yeah.   I just have to say that if I ever had this on my wrist, I don't think I would feel safe going out in public.  I mean, there are 201 carats of DIAMONDS on there.  Still, it is absolutely stunning and thus, a true gift of my dreams. 

Now I don't know much about cars, but I do know that this $1.25 million dollar automobile is the cream of the crop.  Get him this and you can guarantee he'll love you forever (or is it wrong to buy love? I don't know, but I don't think you can hate a person who gives you this...). 

Can't think of a good gift for your kids? How about this teddy bear made of real gold, sapphires and diamonds for $71,500?

Are you a serious chocoholic? Well, then let me introduce you to one of the most stunning chocolate collections I have ever seen.  And the cost? No less than $275!

Or, if those chocolates aren't enough to satisfy your sweet tooth, you can head over to Serendipity for a sundae that will blow your mind.  As the world's most expensive ice cream sundae, this gold leaf covered confection is $1000.  I would savor the moment.

So there you are, another edition of my insane gifts.  I can't believe it's been over a year since I started this blog.  Whether my audience is large or small, I love to write these posts and share them with everyone!

Holiday Gift Guide Edition Two: $10-$35

Sometimes there are those people who we know deserve a gift, but we aren't about to hand them the rent.  This may be true for average friends, coworkers, nieces, nephews, cousins and neighbors.  So, here are the perfect gifts for those special acquaintances that, while important, aren't getting a new iPhone from you.

Chocolates are the perfect gift for tons of occasions.  They are fancy, but not overly so, and they are 100% delicious. (See's Candies, $20.40, Dark Chocolate Soft Center Candy)

Movies provide wonderful entertainment and choosing ones that you know the recipient will enjoy make them feel heartfelt.  Have a romantic relationship? The Titanic is the perfect love story.  (amazon.com, $24.99 discounted from $54.99, Titanic Four Disc Combo)

You may not be getting them an iPhone, but the wonderful cases from Speck are the next best thing.  This one comes with a built in pocket for cards and money, plus it comes in a variety of colors.  (Speck, $34.95, Smartflex Card for iPhone 5)

Or for those who are a bit more unique, how about this ear shaped case in a fuschia?  (bigbigeye.com, $9.99, Ear Styled Case) Yes, I am aware this is one cent under the cost range of $10 dollars, so just consider it your own little present.  You are now a penny richer.

And finally, jewelry is a great gift for any girl.  And while some pieces may be out of your budget, this one is definitely not, but it still looks like a million bucks.  (Overstock.com, $26.99 discounted from $42.99, Tressa Collection Sterling Silver Vintage CZ Bridal and Engagement Ring) *Note: just because the ring says engagement doesn't mean it has to be for that occasion necessarily.  Trust me, any girl would want the bling, regardless of the cause*

Overall, the most important thing about buying someone a gift is that they really truly like it.  It's important to make it something unique and tailor it to them, so they feel like they are truly special to you.  Good luck with your shopping, and I hope this helped to give you some more ideas.

Holiday Gift Guide Edition Two: Stocking Stuffers (Under $10)

Last year I comprised a few posts of the perfect gifts, organized by price.  Since it got such a great response, I've decided to try again this year in Holiday Gift Guide Edition Two.  Now last year I started with  gifts that were under $20 but looking back, I realized I never gave a comprehensive list of stocking stuffers.  So, here are the little gifts I feel will most brighten your holidays. 

This nail polish from Tilly's is only $2.99 and is just gorgeous.  I bought myself a bottle a few days ago and I love it! This is the perfect small present for any girly-girl!

On Amazon.com there are tons of discounted CD's.  While CD's are on the way out, sometimes it's nice to have the real thing, and one can always download the music onto iTunes if need be.  This vintage Dirty Dancing is only $6.99.

And if you don't know what music to give them, an iTunes gift card should work just fine. 

This candle from Paper Source is just $5.95 and will keep the holidays bright for whoever receives it.  Paper Source also has several other wonderful stocking stuffers like...

...this mini paper calendar to have them dreaming of the new year ($7.95, Paper Source). Plus...

...a reindeer that poops cola-flavored jelly beans! How cute! ($6.95, Paper Source)  Plus...

...this Santa Claus lip gloss and soooooo much more! ($2.95, Paper Source)

I hope this list gives you plenty of ideas for little ways to brighten the holidays ahead.

P.S. More Gift Guides are to come!

Fab Feature

Remember a while back when I posted about craving a leather jacket?  Well, I finally got one (okay fine, it's not leather it's pleather....SAVE THE COWS)!  I know what your thinking, "It took you this long to buy one jacket?"  But I'm a busy girl and the right style just hadn't come my way yet.  Besides, I never feel motivated to shop for the next season, I always tend to buy things that I know I can wear right away, so it wasn't until I really felt winter approaching that I really went searching.  Yes, I'm a procrastinator.  But hey, at least I get stuff done eventually.  Anyway, the jacket is cute, brown, and sort of a play on a bomber.  I love it and I feel impossibly cool when I wear it.  I would highly recommend you get one too.

Above is the real Fab Feature here.  This adorable printed dress from Topshop has me falling in love. The only bummer is that the cold is coming, and little dresses are going to have to go away for a bit.  However, if you are willing to brave the chill, this dress with leggings and, yes, a leather jacket would be absolutely adorable.  As for me though, I think I'll stick to admiring from afar and dreaming of spring.
