Gift Guide: The Fashionable Babe

Sometimes getting someone’s size right can be a little tricky, but not to worry – if you’re shopping for your favourite fashionista there are plenty of gifts you could get them that you don’t need to have their measurements for.

A tip – if you’re buying jewellery, make sure you find out what metal they prefer. Think about the accessories that express their personality – either things they could use every day like a phone, a briefcase or bag, or a watch; or something fun like a camera. If they’re a magazine reader then a copy of their favourite magazine is a cool stocking stuffer, or a subscription would make a great present.

If you’re shopping for a book loving fashionable babe – get her a book about fashion! If she’s a social butterfly, something like a Mighty Purse will come in handy – it’s not just a cute clutch, you can also use it to charge your cellphone. Perfect for the gal on the go (and they have vegan options, if you don’t like leather).

Debut Bangle Bracelet Set, $15.00 | Mighty Purse Envelope Clutch, $183.00 | Girl Express Metallic Sandals, $12.00 | Boh Runga 9CT Gold Feather Kisses Studs, $289.00 | Debut Embossed Crossbody Handbag, $25.00 | Black: History of Black in Fashion, Society and Culture in New Zealand, $52.99 | Bird & Knoll Giza Riders Scarf, AUD $298.00 | Witchery Belted Sunhat, $79.90

If you know your fashionista’s favourite store, get her a gift card! If she’s been eyeing something up from Hope & Harvest, 17 Sundays, Harlow or one of her other favourite stores, she will be excited to be able to make that order. If the store she loves doesn’t have gift cards, get crafty and make one up yourself (and then pop the cash in her account at a later date).

Fashion lovers, are you coveting any of these gifts, or is there something you think fellow fashionistas would like that I haven’t included? Leave me a comment below and share this post as a subtle hint *wink wink*
