Places to Seek the Unique for Holiday Gifts
0 |
Posted by: ShopandTell
Since I write a blog called "Seek the Unique," it's easy to see that
I like to shop. I love to shop for holiday gifts that are special and
personal. Spending more money doesn't mean the gift is better and it's
a personal mission of mine to buy gifts for loved ones and friends that
can't be found on any "big box retailer" shelf.
As you look for
holiday gift ideas, here are a few of the websites that I visit
regularly, if not daily, as as "seek the unique" for holiday gifts.
Inhabitat
This
blog is one of the BEST places on the planet to find innovations in
technology, practices and materials for sustainable architecture and
home design. Inhabitat is one step ahead of the crowd on the newest
products and gift ideas, in my opinion. Inhabitat goes beyond just
"green" ideas for gifts, this blog features some of the coolest
suggestions for gifts that are well-designed.
Go there NOW.
Fashion Kitty
"Fashion
Kitty" (known to her family as Lauren Messiah) is one of web's hippest
shopping divas. One of the reasons I L-O-V-E Lauren's recommendations
is that not only are her suggestions cool--they usually have a sense of
fun and flare. I stalk both of Lauren's column's regularly and she
hasn't steered me wrong yet. Find Fashion Kitty at StyleDash.com and you can ask her your fashion questions at Ask Fashion Kitty.
This Next
I
am a card-carrying member of THIS NEXT social shopping community. This
Next is a website I check everyday and it's an online "social shopping"
community where members share tips for what they like and where to find
it. You can read some of my recommendations as well as my fashion idol
"Fashion Kitty" on the links below. I've also included a link to
This Next's Holiday Gift Guide.
