Let's Hear It for the Girls

Why is this “joyous” time of year so damn stressful? If it’s not the holiday-party fashion crisis, it’s the vegan-sister gift dilemma. (No comment on the dwindling bank account.) DailyCandy is here to help with its annual Girls’ Holiday Gift Guide.

First things first: that do-gooder vegan twin sister. You’ll both approve of this paper vase, made of recycled newspapers.

mogu! Hang-at-home gals love to get cozy on the couch. Go stylish with a sequin-and-satin wool throw or classic with Kashmere. Toss in cashmere briefs and a Mogu pillow, and she may never leave home again.


sleepmask! Little Miss Busypants having trouble sleeping? Cris Notti’s sleep masks and Essence of Vali’s aromatherapy potions make her much nicer at her 9 a.m.


clio vases! She’s a walking cliche cheeseball, but you love her anyway. Chocolate and flowers are the way to go. Choose non-dorky versions, like Richart’s gorgeous Essential Ballotin, and a self-watering flowerpot. She’ll love her blooms even more if they’re in a beautiful vase from Clio.

la perla! Got a little sexual dynamo on your hands? (You lucky guy.) She’ll look hot in La Perla’s new Black Label lingerie. Wanna go the extra mile? Manon jewelry makes a great accessory.

Product whores will coo over Red Flower’s new body treatments and Sento Set or Fresh’s Index Fragrance Chronicles.

brooch! She’s all lady, head to toe. So treat her like one — whatever your budget, with diamond studs from Mia & Kompany or a brooch from Banana Republic (looks like a million, costs less than $50).


gap scarf! If she’s quirky, she’ll want the Wishes & Dreams calendar. If she’s totally not, she’ll go for Gap’s matching scarf, hat, and gloves.



No doubt something here will even work for Grandma Murphy back in Memphis. Now get back to stressing about your outfit. The January doldrums will be here soon enough.
