gift lists

With Christmas just around the corner, I'm feeling a little panicked. I haven't even begun thinking about gifts until two days ago (with school overtaking my life), and now I'm crunched for time. Last Christmas, I got my mother a cashmere pashmina, my father fleece gloves, and my sister a bunch of books. But with a new year, I'm feeling even more personal pressure to top the past. So without further ado, here are some of my gift ideas...

For my bookish, Twilight-obsessed sister:
- "The Twilight Saga: The Official Guide"
- Gilmore Girls Seasons 6 + 7 (since we watched the rest of them already)
For my elegant, uber-feminine, nature loving mother:
- Personalized glass picture frame
- A watering can for all of her darn plants
- Gap cowlneck sweater
For my nerdy, can't-dress-himself, tai chi loving father:
- Timberland cotton shirt
- Alfani sweater (in blue)
- Tai Chi CD
For my adorable, fashion-conscious friends:
- a cool knitting and sewing guide
- Merona earrings
- Vera Wang short scarf
- Merona ribbon wrapped bracelet
- headbands, headbands, and more headbands!
