HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE: FOR HER

Our round-up of great holiday gifts found in Downtown Calgary continues – this time for all of the women in your life. There are so many great finds out there right now from shops in Bankers Hall, Stephen Avenue and The Core Shopping but I had to narrow it down to my absolute favourites. These lovely gifts are the perfect way to spoil the ladies of all ages. Everything from pampering to style to practical items, you’ll be sure to find something for everyone on your list. Watch for our next gift guide coming up for men!

Pamper Her

Whether you are looking for a gift for your mom or just for a great gift for someone who deserves some extra pampering, hook them up with a super soft robe and ultra luxe slippers. Why not include a gift card to their favourite spa or salon for a massage or mani/pedi? Alternatively, you could load up on bubble baths, nail polishes and other pampering goodies and create a great care package.

Classic Beauty

You can’t go wrong with some seriously classic items to throw into their stocking. Everyone loves getting treated to lovely hair products like Bumble and Bumble’s Shine Spray. It is ideal for getting your hair looking shiny and beautiful for holiday parties. She’ll want to toss all of her goodies into this stylish tote from Indigo. The black and tan vegan leather make it an ethical yet fashionable choice for anyone who loves a good bag.

All That Glitters

We all know someone who loves a bit of sparkle. Treat them right with some more glitter and glam this holiday. This cheeky clutch/crossbody bag is perfect for ringing in the New Year and she can stash all of her glittery goods in there for the night out. This glitter dust shadow is great for creating a dramatic sparkly and smokey eye for the party season.

Practical Living

And lastly, because we all appreciate gifts that  we can actually use, get her some super practical (yet still stylish and cool) for Christmas. These texting gloves from Banana Republic make so much sense for living in Calgary - chances are you’ll always be caught in some unfortunate weather at the exact moment that you are trying to get ahold of someone. Likewise for this fun backpack. Practical, cute and perfect for all ages - stashing laptops, books and clothes for an overnight trip to the mountains has never been so fun.
