Women love to receive gifts any time of year. Whether the excuse is Valentine’s Day, a birthday or any day of the week, there is something for every woman on your list.
We love Diamond Candles, which not only offers deliciously flavor filled scents like Hawaiian coconut or vanilla lime, but the 100 percent soy candles come with a fun ‘ring reveal.’ As the candle burns, a surprise ring inside (valued at $10, $100, $1,000, or $5,000) is made inside the candle wrapped in aluminum foil. We unveiled a gorgeous ruby (ironically, my July birth stone),which was a perfect fit. The candle continues to burn a clean fragrance that fills up a room with immediate relaxation.
For the business woman in your life, be sure to check out Moshi, a designer of the fashionable Urbana bags. When it comes to combining style with urban chic, Moshi does it right. From stylish carrying cases to gorgeous functionality, the Urbana combines everything she needs in a briefcase with its lightweight design and weather-resistant fabric. We recommend the Cerulean Blue ultra-slim durable bag that has an interior large enough to fit up to a 15-inch laptop and iPad or tablet along with a ViscoStrap to reduce shoulder strain by 30 percent.
Now that the cooler weather is upon us, it’s time to snuggle up. We love doing just that with LinenMe, a gorgeous blue prewashed, super soft, lightweight throw that is not only great for warm summer nights because linen is a great conductor of heat, meaning it will keep her cool in the heat of the day and warm in the chill of the night plus it is more compact and easier to take with her on the go.
For a casual chic look, she will love Robert Matthew’s Sofia 24K gold leather shoulder clutch handbag. Made with 24K gold plated hardware, the bag is made of genuine Saffiano leather and comes complete with an adjustable shoulder strap. We love the dark sapphire color that has a top zipper and outside front zip pocket. Open it up and there is a roomy interior with striped inner fabric lining. While this bag may start out as a special occasion clutch, she will soon fall in love with it and make it one of her classic everyday pieces.
Admit it. Most women love word challenges and brain teasers, not to mention keeping journals of fond life memories. If the female in your life is anything like us, she will love Wordologies, a unique reminder to live inspired. From inspirational coffee mugs that say “Happiness Happens” to candles that celebrate life’s joys like “Peace Perfects,” there is something for every woman here that she will not only love but be inspired daily by each heartfelt message. Their motto -Be positive. Eliminate self-criticism. You choose your feelings and actions. Come alive. You’re worth it!
Speaking of inspiration, Oprah Winfrey has recently introduced her own audiobook for Macmillan Audio, which incorporates “What I Know For Sure” with her personal life experiences. In the four-CD compilation, she talks about her youth, her time hosting The Oprah Winfrey Show (the highest-rated program of its kind in history), and her success as America’s only African American billionaire, and everything in between including, the loss of her beloved pets and adopted new ones, and celebrated milestone birthdays. Her inspiring words of wisdom in "What I Know For Sure" are exactly what you think they might be – a candid, open look at some of the best and worst times in her life. While you may wish to gift this to her, it’s good enough to keep for yourself to listen to over and over again.
We talked earlier about the cool weather coming so it’s time to be prepared. It all starts with a great pair of socks and Kentwool has us covered. The 19th Hole Collection dress socks are an ideal fit for fall and winter. Made by the wool manufacturer that got its start by combining performance with golf socks, their product line has expanded into the dress sock market with new trendy styles. Each is made from a combination of superfine Merino wool and high-tech fibers for a luxuriously soft feel that also keeps feet dry and odor-free. If you don’t trust us, Bubba Watson and Matt Kuchar are big fans. Kentwool is serious about their socks – after all, the blend of wool was originally developed for US Special Operations forces during the first Gulf War.
