“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” – Margaret Wolfe Hungerford
What do men need? Clothes. Stylish clothes. Few of them like to buy them for themselves, so occasions warranting gifts (like Father’s Day) are the perfect opportunity to lend a loving hand. My suggestions for Dad this year start with the lightweight shirt above, and continue with…

This Sunday (May 8th) is Mother’s Day in North America (it was April 3rd in the UK). For most mom’s it should really be EVERY day, so for anyone who hasn’t bought the Mother’s in their lives a gift (ahem… any men out there?) – here are my four pillars to a successful gift for Mom:
1 – Thoughtful card:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 2 – Buy her flowers:
3 – Something luxurious:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 4 – Get sentimental:
I’m obsessed with quotes, and I’m a HUGE fan of “quotable cards” – there’s one for every occasion. I think EVERY gift (and occasion) deserves a thoughtful card, you can take it further with a quote that’s sure to warm Mom’s heart. I’ll leave the personal message inside to you.
You can’t go wrong with flowers. Bonus points if you get her favorite. Keep them spring-bright!
Mom’s often don’t spend as time and money on themselves as they do on everyone else. Pamper her! Invest in a designer candle, body lotion, perfume, or jewelry to show her she’s worth it.
My favorite gift to give anyone in my family is a KODAK Photo Book - filled with memories (and of course, I add quotes as captions). You can use photos to personalize mugs, jewelry, and magnets. Tight for time? Just load a digital frame with select photos (or create a slideshow for her iPad).

Happy Halloween Eve Eve!! October flew by… as we’re reminded by Hollywood’s minis (and famous parents) getting ready to finish the month with a festive BANG (or should I say BOO?).
The Beverly Hill’s pumpkin patch has been garnering some serious star power this month with Heidi Klum and two of her little ones; Halle Berry and Nahla Aubry; Christina Aguilera and Max Bratman; Jessica Alba, Honor and Cash Warren. I can only imagine their impending costumes… j’adorable.
Sarah Jessica’s brown-stone is ready and decorated in East-Village-NYC style for this weekend’s festivities. I’m sure James Wilkie and twins Marion Loretta Elwell and Tabitha Hodge Broderick are ready to get their trick-or-treat on… Awe. Whatever city you’re in this Sunday, whether you’re dressing up, carving pumpkins, enjoying treats – or tricks; I hope you do it in GOURDgeous style.
