Fashion Jobs – Fashion Holiday Gift Ideas for Him & Her

Style Nine to Five - Fashion Jobs in Canadagiftgiving

It’s officially the holiday season! Christmas is fast approaching and we are currently dealing with one of the most mentally exhausting dilemmas of the year – gift giving. Let’s face it: we’ve come to the point where we usually have to ask a person what they desire for the holidays and they don’t provide us with a straight answer. Unless they don’t mind anything that’s handmade, it’s generally difficult to shop for a person who has no idea what they want especially when you’re on a strict budget and there are many retail promotions happening around.  This short guide provides a few gift ideas for Him and Her that will not only help narrow down your potential options but also are justifiable and practical for many occasions!

For Him

Cashmere Scarf
With the temperature gradually decreasing, it obviously never hurts to buy him a practical scarf especially when it’s cashmere. Because men typically like it “quick and easy”, scarves are one of the simplest go-to pieces that you can give for the holidays.

Long-sleeve Shirt
A man can never have too many long-sleeve shirts. They are worn practically every day for the office and are good transitional pieces especially if they need to attend a night occasion. Now that it is the holiday season, it’d be feasible to stack such pieces for all those parties they’re invited to.

Turtleneck Sweater
Many women consider turtlenecks as one of the key winter basics as they coordinate well with many pieces and are sensible for the cold seasons.
