My Favorite Gifts to Give & Automatic Watch Giveaway

In general, I don't like to give clothes as a gift unless I really know the person and his/her size and taste well. It is such a hassle if the size is too big or small. Also, I avoid giving perfumes and skincare products because these are rather personal. I have received perfumes which I don't care for and can't return because I don't have the receipt. As a savvy gal, it would be rude to ask the gift giver to provide the receipt. Usually I will purchase things such as chocolates, fashion accessories, bath and soap products, and little home decorations because these gifts are savvy but not too personal. 1. Shea Butter Hand Cream & Bonne Mere Soap $36 (1 and 2 via L'Occitane.com)
2. Shea Embrace $69 --- I adore everything from L'Occitane. Shea butter products are not scented so I can provide some luxury without getting too personal.
3. Ann Taylor Cashmere Ruffle Scarf $125 --- A gal can always have another scarf. Who can resist a ruffle cashmere scarf? Not me! (via anntaylor.com)
4. Godiva Chocolate Care Package $45 --- I have not encountered a person who dislike chocolate yet. (via godiva.com)
5. Bath & Body Aromatherapy Soothe the Sense $20 (via bathandbody.com)
6. Crystal Tiffany Box $100 --- This is great for candy or jewelry storage. Of course, any gift inside a little blue box is just adorable. This is one of my emergency gift for girl friends. (via tiffany.com)
7. Good Bottle of Wine --- My current favorite is to give V. Sattui Riesling ($18.75 per bottle). It's slightly dry and sweet which goes well with spicy poultry and seafood. So far, most of friends who tried this liked the taste. (via vsattui.com)
8. Kosta Boda Fine Carafe sale $57 --- We can always use this in the kitchen for wine or even juice. (via kostaboda.com)
As Christmas is just around the corner, I am excited to announce an Orient ladies automatic watch giveaway to one Savvy Mode followers. After all a gal needs to have different accessories to match her looks. For myself, I have both fun casual and serious meeting watches. I would love to have another serious Rolex similar to 2er00001b. I don't say this enough but many bloggie friends have been with me from the beginning and I can't begin express my appreciation. I want to say having you in my life makes my days brighter. Good luck and have a super day!

xoxo, SG

I love your gift ideas, hon! It's so true, no matter how great a sweater it is, sometimes it's just too personal.

Sigh, I wish I could win that watch but I know I won your scarf giveaway already!

Meg said...

I never buy clothes as gift (except pajamas) as I find it hard to guess sizes and taste. Chocolate is never a bad gift!

Oh, and I've been a follower for a while.

I couldn't agree more about gift giving. I have a few perfume bottles that I have no idea what to do with because they're just not my taste.

Your alternatives are great :)

And I love the watch giveaway! What a lovely piece. I'm definitely a follower here.
