15 Pretty Little Charms for Ladies

Posted in Accessories, Gift Ideas | 1 comment

Looking for gifts for ladies? At the onset, there are lots of things that would make nice gifts for women, but as you search, the sheer number of these things to choose from becomes more and more daunting. One thing I know though, most women love little trinkets. Take for instance my mom and some of my girl friends, they love charms.

So I’ve been searching around looking for pretty, unique, and affordable charms for these ladies. I like the idea of giving my mom as well as friends one charm in every special day. This might also point you to the right direction if you are looking for gift ideas for girls. All items I picked are on the below $25 price bracket, you don’t even have to wait for Black Friday sale to grab these since they are pretty much affordable. Lol! I know I’m generous but I’m also mindful of the budget. But still these look pretty enough and not even cheap looking..

Chocolate Indulgence Gift Box

Posted in Gift Ideas, Girl Talk | 0 comments

Will somebody give this to me? A box of chocolates!  I should ask hubby to read this blog, but uggh I think this site is just too feminine for him though I think it’ll do him a world of good to take a peek at my posts so he can get ideas on what to give me hmm.. =)

Anyway, this came to mind because one of my closest cousin is celebrating her birthday and I’ve been thinking of what to give her. Of course, I’d want to give her something she could indulge in so I asked myself, what’s a really sinful indulgence that I have a hard time staying away from?

The answer… nope not designer goodies, not spa and pampering. My answer would be chocolates!!! They are just heavenly, for a constant dieter like me anyway.  Thankfully, cousin D is just like me. Crazy about chocolates. The difference though is that I prefer dark chocolate while she prefers the milky white chocolate. So, I’ll be sending her a bunch of chocolates plus when I visit her in July, I promised to bring her a box of Royce Nama chocolates since I’ll be dropping by Singapore.

Harvey Nichols Chocolate Indulgence Gift Box

Incidentally, I came across the Harvey Nichols Chocolate Indulgence Gift Box. The description is enough to make me drool..

Indulgent and deliciously decadent, this Harvey Nichols Chocolate Indulgence Gift Box contains many of our favourite chocolate delights. The Harvey Nichols Hot Chocolate is made with heavenly Valhrona chocolate, to be served stylishly in the iconic Harvey Nichols Baci di Dama mug. Along with an assortment of chocolate treats, from bars to fudge, to chocolate covered brazils and luscious couveture orangettes, this gift box is an indulgent treat.

I think its just perfect. Except that they only ship in UK. But I’m posting it just the same coz its really a great gift idea..the whole set costing £60.00.
