GIFT GUIDE - FOR HIM
BY: KENDALL MILLER
Ahh.. my favorite time of year, shopping for the men in my life.
Most (not all!!!) men don’t really shop for themselves throughout the year, whether they don’t enjoy it or just don’t have time. Christmas is a great time to get them essentials they need, pieces they should try, and of course stuff they actually want.
Whether it’s for my brother or boyfriend, gift ideas for them never come easily. But you have a rare opportunity to gift them what you think is good. Now I’m not saying to completely veer from their personal interests or style, nonetheless there is an art to the balance of honoring them while giving small nudges in a different direction they might not know exists! Today we venture into the mind of a man and what he wants (it’s scary in here).
Shop the Hats
This Christmas, we have an array of hats to choose from. A staple in many guys’ wardrobe, this is a no brainer gift to get your significant other, brother, dad etc. Like the one above you can choose a hat that fits their personal style and interests but is still cute and stylish. You could even create a themed gift around whichever hat you choose making it easy to find other things to pair together!
Shop the Fish Flask
I don’t know what it is about boys and their flasks but I swear they love them. This flask is stainless steel which helps it to last through the wear and tear it’s sure to go through. It’s something they might not think to buy for themselves but would get a lot of use out of. Also an obvious gift choice for the avid fisherman in your life.
Shop the Whiskey Dice & Whiskey Bullets
Another cocktail related accessory that your guy would love but might not think of for himself. These whiskey bullets keep their drinks cold and your aesthetic Insta pic opportunities plentiful. Think about it: a soft launch Instagram story with his hand holding a whiskey glass with dice in it?! Cool and mysterious. It’s really a win-win for you and him.
Shop the Jeep Candle
Candles are such a good gift for guys. Oftentimes gifts like candles, flowers, and jewelry get overlooked when thinking of guys. They can be seen as more feminine gifts, but guys deserve to smell good and look cute too! Finding candles that would fit into their room/house that also smell delicious can be hard but we have so many choices for you. The one above is great for a car guy or an adventure lover.
Shop the Dice Ashtray
We have to show love to the smokers as well. We have a few ash trays to choose from but this one is my personal favorite. It’s a functional but stylish gift! It can also be gifted to non-smokers to be used as a jewelry holder or soap dish. This could be a great gift to give your boy with a man cave. It’s a great addition to any room but would find a great home somewhere they could use it a lot!
Shop the Ornaments
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it a million times, ornaments are such good additions to gifts. You can pick something that reminds you of the receiver that they can use for years to come. Not only that but this small detail shows thought about them was put into the gift, versus just generic gift giving.
Shop the Puzzle
Puzzles are great gifts to give to family members or significant others because they are so versatile! They can provide the perfect date night or game night activity to do with your loved ones. They can also be converted into an art piece with the addition of a frame and some puzzle glue sheets. Le Puzz is unrivaled in aesthetic puzzles that still provide a challenge!
Shop the Rings
Like I said before, jewelry can be overlooked as a gift for guys. Obviously don’t get your boyfriend who never wears jewelry a ring, that’s like getting a gold girl silver jewelry (it’s a sin!). However, if you know they like to wear jewelry we have lots of fun stainless steel options to choose from in-store and online. The one above is a personal favorite for the edgy or indie guy in your life. It would also pair well with one of our chains in store!
