Women's Holiday Gift Guide Vancouver
Herewith, our gift picks for the gals, from save to splurge.
If your bestie likes books gift her a paperback from Penguin's Couture Classics series. Famed fashion illustrator Ruben Toledo drew custom covers for the three female-centric titles, Pride and Prejudice, Wuthering Heights and The Scarlett Letter. $20 each at www.penguin.ca
Spruce up the office space of a working girl with Cubicle Art by Vancouver-born artist Talia Shipman. The 4x6 pieces feature photos taken on travels paired with hand-written messages, like “It's not me, it's you,” and will mount to a wall or stand upright. $55 at Vancouver Special, www.vanspecial.com
Heat up the cold hands of those warm hearts you know with a pair of leather driving gloves. In patent, snakeskin and other colours, they're the sexiest we've seen and will make her feel like a secret agent. $79 at Club Monaco, www.clubmonaco.com
Road trips with gal pals aren't the same since Polaroid passed on, so replace hers with the Fuji Instax, a cute instant camera that takes credit card-sized snaps. Joshua Jackson just took one to Mexico to capture holiday pics of his paramour Diane Kruger. $145 at Urban Outfitters, www.urbanoutfitters.com
A Burberry trench is timeless, and with the brand's recent Art of the Trench collaboration with The Sartorialist, the gal you give it to can street-style it up and submit her photo to be featured on the website. From $1,095 at Burberry, www.burberry.com
