Tis This Season Gentlemen
‘Tis this season…blah blah blah, you know the drill. It’s the holidays, which means it’s time to buy those you love most in your life something lovely. Or, time to buy them something that makes you feel lovely about them. I think the greatest gifts are those that make both the giver and receiver happy. I made this gift guide with men in mind. Specifically, my friend’s boyfriends. If I have to have one more conversation about what I think they should get them for the season, I might explode. I think he’s unfashionable and dirty, so that was the inspo behind a lot of these. With that being said, lets jump into some great gifts that would make anyone happy to walk around with their loved one
Ok, I know, it’s expensive. However, it’s everything. Just “throw the whole kitchen sink at the problem and hope something fixes it” sorta vibe. What’s fun about this box is that it allows you to walk someone through the different products and how they use them. It’s not only a chance to upgrade his hygiene and home care routines, but it’s also a chance to inform him on why it’s important to do so. Also, if you buy it soon enough, it can act as an Advent calendar. Frankly, it could be the whole damn year’s worth of gifts.
I mean, come on now. It sells itself. He gets to explore some new smells, you get some smells for yourself, it’s a win-win. I think Scentbird is fantastic, so much opportunity to get to test and try without having to be married to an expensive new bottle. I think smelling good is one of the most sexy things you can do, so give your partner the gift of good smells.
The whole damn brand is amazing and gives you the chance to really customize sunglasses or eyeglasses. It’s incredibly reasonable for what it is, offers different sizing, and will allow you to mix and match lenses. I linked what I think are the coolest glasses on the planet. They are simple, go with everything, offer sun protection, and they make any outfit a little better. I call them celebrity shades, they speak for themselves
Get him out of those fuck ass skinny jeans. For the love of God. This gift is more for me than anyone else. I’m sick of seeing your boyfriends chicken legs. However, I understand we aren’t all comfortable with baggy or flares. So, get him bootcut. They are versatile, timeless and he can wear them in almost any setting. These J.Crew jeans are perfect: great wash, great fit, long lasting. Just buy them, you will thank me later.
I cannot tell you how many compliments I get on these. They are on sale, they go with everything, they are so fucking chic. He can wear them to lounge, to the gym, to run errands. They are so versatile, they can be dressed up and dressed down. I love that grey color in that specific material, however, you know your partner. So, buy them what they would wear. A word of caution though, with such a distinct silhouette I would stick to a neutral color.
