FASHION GIFT IDEAS FOR THE HOLIDAYS

Dear valued reader, it’s that season of the year when making a choice gets tougher especially when it involves fashion. But not to worry, for we’ve got you covered. Why should you consider a fashion gift or why should your gift involve fashion?. Fashion is a social phenomenon common to many fields of human activities and thinking; meaning almost everyone regardless of their background would appreciate one especially if it suits their style, aesthetics or needs. Therefore while planning your gift, putting the essential needs of the person(s) you intend to present it to will help you make the best choice.

I’m sure you are aware that there are a variety of options you can choose from, such as; dresses, shoes, jewellery, deodorants, toiletries and much more. Using Classic, Relaxed, Dramatic, Creative, Rebellious, Feminine, and Elegant Chic, as style reference. So go right ahead and get creative 💪🏽.

In all, here are the holiday gift ideas that’ll help you pick the best present:

1. Their choice

Christmas is the world's favorite time of the year and the new year the most celebrated. You want to present a gift to your loved ones in a style that resonates with them. Figuring out their choice may be difficult for you, especially if you’re not so close to them; but if you are close it shouldn’t be a problem, you’d ace it.

Just in case your relationship isn’t that close here are some things you want to look out for:

a. Their closet: Focus on what they don’t have while observing what they do have; but keep in mind that your sense of style and theirs are different, therefore you want to provide them what they don’t have in the style they are comfortable in.

b. Their fashion catalogue: 99% of the world’s population have a fashion catalogue; either on their phones or fashion magazines. Take a peek, act curious - not suspicious or creepy.

c. Their fashion focus: this is one thing that is mostly underrated. Everyone spells out their fashion desires from their interests in fashion wears or accessories; the compliments they give, fashion inclined pictures they take and display items they hesitate to look away from.

Still don’t know what you could possibly get them? Here are some ideas using a festive palette red, pink, green, and white:

a. Make a statement with a beautiful silhouette, chic dress.

b. Sparkle in sequin dresses; dramatic red and white ball gowns.

c. 3D organza lace fabric with pink 3D chiffon rosette.

2. Fashion trends

You have to admit that you love to be on track with the latest trends, not just for your business (if you’re a business man/woman) but for your public appearance as well. Give your spouse, friends, families and even your fans a gift from fashion trends and the most talked about collection. They want to be seen/noticed and even feel among, don’t deprive them of that.

Some fashion trends in 2022 are:

a. Old navy long-sleeve sweater dress.

b. Le specs outta lone sunglasses.

c. Saint Laurent Lou matelassé leather camera bag.

d. Nashelle 14k-gold fill initial mini heart pendant necklace.

e. J.Crew cropped cashmere crewneck sweater.

f. Stand studio ring jacket.

g. A new day Eve tall dress boots.

h. Adrienne landau faux fur bucket hat.

i. JW pei mini flap crossbody.

3. Fashion advice

A lot of people take this for granted but you shouldn’t join the train: give good fashion advice as your holiday present, it does come with a long term appreciation plan. You want to show/advise them to personalize their styles, improve their personal style or completely update their wardrobe. Some people - even myself - find it hard to accomplish these on their own, be their "savior" and they’d adore you.

To successfully achieve this you need to have a deep knowledge of fashion, therefore I have personally scouted an information essential to fashion, that’ll definitely put your thoughts in the right direction 😎

Fashion is a non-verbal communication that can represent one's political and religious beliefs, gender identity, occupation, and essence. Whether intentional or not, the way that you dress, the accessories you put on and perfumes you wear, can send a message to others about how you view yourself and how you want to be seen. Therefore I’d advice you stand out, not blend in.
