[Holiday Gift Guide 2014] for the Stylish & Practical

December 3, 2014 By Cherrie Leave a Comment

Do you need to give your bf or hubby some ideas on what to get you this holiday season?

OR

Maybe you are racking your brains trying to think of the perfect Christmas gift for your modern and fashionable mom, sis, bestie, or friend that is a girl?

Are they the type that likes things they can put to good use?
Perhaps they are the big-hearted type that would much rather give gifts than receive them?

Then I’ve got the PERFECT GIFT IDEAS just for you!

I’ve put together a gift guide with 10 stylish and practical gift ideas for the urban down-to-earth philanthropist…..so that the items won’t collect dust in a corner or stuffed in the bottom of a drawer AND you’ll be able to support some fantastic social causes (AKA the majority of these companies offer a portion of their profit towards helping others in need – through financial support, by offering employment opportunities or by gifting items as part of a one-for-one campaign, etc.).
