Have a few fashion lovers on your shopping list this year? Trying to think of what you can tell others to get YOU? You’re in luck! From stocking stuffers to scene stealers, budget-friendly to wildly extravagant, here are some fun gift ideas you can use to get the “It’s perfect! Just what I wanted!” response you want.
Looking for some tried-and-true beauty classics that would be welcomed in any stocking? Peruse the 2007 BEST OF BEAUTY Master List from the Editors of Allure Magazine. They review hundreds of products in dozens of categories to find the best performers. Some are old classics, some are new favorites, all are sure to be a hit with the fashion-savvy on your list.
| Scent Sampler
Like the idea of giving perfume but not sure which fragrance is right? No problem! Sephora’s Scent Sampler allows you to give samples of ten of their most popular fragrances (Philosophy Inner Grace, Vera Wang Princess, Givenchy Very Irresistable, among others) so the recipient can try them all and choose her favorite. Then she can redeem a gift certificate at Sephora for a full sized sample of the one she liked best. Great idea! Some restrictions apply, so be sure to read the fine print.

A luxurious muffler looks great, feels great, and can update an old coat in a flash. If you have someone on your list who’s fussy or hard to buy for, give them a beautiful muffler and see how often they wear it. With all the compliments such pieces tend to generate, it will probably be a lot.

Simple, classic, elegant. If your favorite fashionista doesn’t have a pair of diamond stud earrings, perhaps you should get her some. Beautiful pieces are often worn for years and passed down through generations, so don’t be afraid to splurge. You’re sure to get your money’s worth.

Do you have a young fashion lover on your list who’s also into Ninetendo DS? Me too! Challenge her inner designer by designing a clothing line, styling her models’ hair, and putting together a fashion shoot. She can even see what it’s like to run a boutique and work with clients. Ages 7 and up.

Energy-draining projects. Year-end deadlines. Last-minute shopping. Unexpected guests. Want to pamper a special someone and take her away from all her troubles for a while? Then gift her with a massage, facial, or manicure and watch her grin from ear to ear. Look for participating spas across country or around the corner with a little help from Spa Wish. (Also recommended to anyone reading this.)

Have a fashionable traveler on your list? Try a pretty new set of luggage that looks great, has wheels and handles, and stands out from the sea of black suitcases on the airport luggage carousel. Designer brand luggage doesn’t have to be expensive to look good and perform well.

Gift Card
Sill stumped? Try a gift card to their favorite store (department, boutique, book, or discount) or a general-purpose gift card, like American Express. Gift cards make it easy for people to get just what they want while making it easy on you to give. Win-win all around.
So, there you have it: fun gift ideas for the fashion lovers on your list. Why stress yourself out this holiday season when you can just let your fingers do the clicking?
