Last Minute Christmas Gift Ideas or Ideas Just for You

Dec 20, 2013

I love living in Charleston but my one complaint is we don’t have a great mall or any good department stores. I just got into Charlotte yesterday for Christmas (and to have some much needed help with the little ones) and one of my first stops is always Southpark Mall.  I have not been shopping in almost 4 weeks since before Frances was born so it was so nice to get out and browse.  Wanted to share a few things I spied that I want for myself and would make great gifts.

All the places listed below if you order today will ship to you by Christmas eve for free.   but if you miss the deadline it is always fun to get packages post Christmas!

:: JCREW LEATHER BALLET FLATS ::

My girl Chassity really recommended these JCrew ballet flats to me swearing they are some of her most comfortable shoes.  Being on my feet all day chasing Sterling and running errands comfort is a must but of course I want them to look cute too. I ordered these and they blew me away,  so comfortable and the color selection is amazing.  Highly recommend.  Added bonus you can get an extra 40% off online (only 30% in stores).  I got the royal blue and love them

:: TORY BURCH LEATHER WRAP BRACELET::

I tried this on in the TB store and loved it,  the perfect bracelet for layering.  The snakeskin version which I love is onsale right now! This iridescent one is pretty awesome too.

:: VINCE CHEVRON KNIT SWEATER ::

I am obsessed with all things Vince, this sweater is a steal at 40% off.  Almost bought this for myself and it comes in 3 great colors.

:: TORY BURCH PERFUME ::

This perfume smells amazing.  I get tired of perfume quickly and I am always on the lookout for new fresh smelling ones.  May have to use my Christmas money to buy this for myself.

:: REBECCA MINKOFF CROSS BODY PURSE ::

Love this purse, especially the chain straps and quilted leather.  The perfect purse for an evening out.  It comes in so many great colors and is a great deal, under $200.

:: JOIE PRINT SILK BLOUSE ::

This blouse reminds me of my mom’s snakeskin one that I love.  It is 40% off right, an awesome everyday blouse.

:: GAP STAR ONESIE ::

I picked this onesie up for Frances and adore it.  It reminds me of the JCrew and Petit Bateau ones for a fraction of the cost, it is 40% off and comes to like $6.

it also comes in the organic version that is a bit more expensive.

:: VINCE LEATHER JACKET ::

My mom and I both own almost identical Vince Leather jackets and we live in them.  This is an investment piece for sure but worth every penny.  Mine is my go-to everyday jacket.  This one is on sale and they are hard to find to on sale, they go super fast.  It is great everyday jacket or one you can dress up.  It is so cute over dresses.

::BURBERRY PLAID SCARF ::

I have a Burberry Scarf, I absolutely love.  I love this royal blue color.  Currently part of the Nordstrom sale, this would be a fabulous gift.

  Have a great weekend friends!

    Great picks! Do you find that those flats run pretty true to size? Trying to decide if I should order a 1/2 size up or if they will be too big!
