Top Twelve Gifts for the Men in Your Life
In last week's holiday gift guide, we brought you Ten Cheerful Gifts for the Holiday Host or Hostess. For this week's post, we present the top picks for the men in your life. Whether it be your husband, your brother, or your dad, we've got the best gifts for the pickiest guy on your list. Look out for next week's post with gifts for women. Happy holiday shopping!
Created by two of Esquire Magazine's "Best Dressed Real Men," Armstrong and Wilson has the best selection of pocket squares for any man's suit. Whether he wants a funky print or a simple white square with blue trim, these buttoned pocket squares are a great gift for any man who loves to accessorize.
The perfect stocking stuffer, Dapper Classics has men's socks in every color and pattern combination he could dream of.
Every man should have a classic cashmere sweater in a neutral color. Everlane uses the same manufacturers as designer clothing, yet offers high quality at a more reasonable price.
We love all things skull and crossbones in my house. Pajama pants too “old” for the man in your life but you can’t look at his holey sweats from college for one more minute? How about these edgy J. Crew PJ pants I bought my husband last year?
Is he picky about his cologne? This Sephora gift set includes 10 samplers and a coupon to redeem for a full-sized bottle of his favorite fragrance.
Perfect for keeping pens and electronics organized inside his work bag for easy (and super chic!) access.
Does your husband dress well at the office but lose it on the weekends? This J. Hilburn belt allows you to choose your own combination of leather or suede and stitching. I got my husband chocolate suede with blue stitching for his birthday this year and he wears it all the time.
Is the man in your life addicted to his iPhone? These gloves are not only made with high-quality leather and lined with cashmere, but they also have flip-back technology on the thumb and pointer finger for touchscreen use!
The self-proclaimed "Netflix of ties," Freshneck is perfect for the fashion-obsessed man in your life. Simply choose from their selection of ties, pocket squares, and other accessories, add your favorites to your "queue," then receive your top three in the mail and wear all you want! Whenever you decide you're ready for some "fresh" looks, mail them back and receive the next three ties from your queue.
For the man who needs help curating a trendy new look, choose from one of the many gift sets from Everett. Choose from more simple, solid colors or go all out with camo print or paisleys. I love that they come pre-packaged in a cigar box!

No man could say no to a Birchbox subscription! With samples of all the top grooming products sent monthly, he'll be able to discover new brands and purchase straight from the Birchbox website.
Give him an iPad sleeve that will impress his boss and coworkers.

Don't Let Your Bag Wear You
It's odd for a fashion stylist to say (I know), but I've never been into wearing bags featuring designer logos. I just love it when someone says, "I love your bag, what is it?" Of course I don't love it when I have to tell them it is an obscure Italian brand they will never find in the store...
My clients are often burdened with the pressure of choosing a bag. Some don't want to foot the bill for a "name" bag, and others don't want to be characterized by the brand they're carrying.
Worry no more, dear readers! The search is over. I've found three brands, all of varying price points, which should satisfy most lifestyles and budgets. Happy shopping!
Everlane is a brand I first heard about from Rosa Loves DC in this blog post about her fabulous reverse denim tote. I saw it in person last weekend and let me tell you, these bags look like they cost four times as much as they actually do!

I've also newly discovered IIIBeCa. I literally stopped in my tracks the first time I saw this line at Lord & Taylor. Great quality leather, fabulous colors and good design: what else could you ask for?
A Clean-Cut Bag That Respects Its Owner's Style. This is the title of the New York Times article that introduced me to AB A Brand Apart. Doesn't that just say it all?

The Perfect Outfit
Where did she find this awesome blazer, with a waist-creating shape and a color made for the camera? On this blog of course! It arrived in her inbox just as panic about a TV appearance was beginning to set in. She had it overnighted and wore it on the Today Show a few days later.
How much is the perfect under-top worth? In this case, $285. Although initially floored at spending this much on a tank top to go UNDER a jacket, she realized that after 4 hours of searching, time saved shopping plus umpteen wears would make this a value piece after all.
Who makes the perfect pant for you, baby? Theory, every time. This is a lesson none of my clients ever forget.
I recommended this perfect pump to the client (and many more since!) 8 years ago. She has now bought multiple pairs and it still goes from work to dinner to cocktail without missing a step.
Ok, so this is not the exact black tote the client was carrying, but I just had to add it. RosaLovesDC featured it on her blog a few weeks ago in a great denim color and I must agree with her, it is the perfect tote.
Happy shopping!
