Last Minute Gifts.

So it's five days until Christmas and you don't have a gift for (insert person here). 

Don't sweat! We have ALL been there! I made this post for that reason! Sometimes when we are stressed, we don't think of gift ideas that are staring us right in the face! Hopefully this post will give you an idea of what to get those last couple people.

I've organized these graphics by gender, relationship, and price. For example, the ladies are first (as it should be, hehe). In each category there are three gifts. The gifts range from 150 to 0 dollars. (Zero?! What could that be? Read on and find out!) The order, from bottom to top, goes like this: $0-20, $20-50, $50-150.

So with this understanding, let's get started!

To start us off, let's talk about a female significant other. The S.O. gifts can be especially difficult because of worrying thoughts like "Will they like it?!" "Is it good enough?!" First off, any gift is good- it's from YOU. So throw that thought out. For those looking to spend a pretty penny, Tiffany's is most every girl's dream. That little blue box can do a lot! This necklace is simple, beautiful, and classic. Now, if that is too expensive (which is FINE, we all don't have that much extra money to spend- especially if you are a college student like me!) any pampering products go a long way! My favorite brand is Lush. These are all handmade, natural, and make any bath/ pampering sesh feel like a spa! Lastly, MAKE HER SOMETHING. Yes, this is the ZERO dollar option. It doesn't have to be much. A mix CD, a poster, a written love letter. I sometimes find these to be the best gifts because of how much meaning they can have. 

Next up, that lovable sibling. Urban Decay has been a beauty lovers go-to this past year, and they have new Naked on the Run palettes to suit the needs of every makeup junkie! If your sister isn't the makeup type, but more so the sporty type, a yoga mat (or any other workout gear) will make her so happy! We usually don't like to spend much on workout gear. I mean we are SWEATING in it. However, there is nothing nicer than to get ready for a workout, or game, with a nice piece of clothing or gear! Lastly, disney. Girls LOVE disney. Well, at least 9/10 do! DVD/ Blue Ray are releasing updated versions of the classics. Amped up color, sound and more! She will be sure to love it!

Lastly, friends. Whether you're a girl giving to a girl, or a guy giving to a girl, these will be sure to help. Wristlets are helpful, practical, and an automatic "win" in the gift department. There are cheaper versions, but I find leather, or faux leather, ones to last the longest! Ah, makeup again. Face palettes like this one, from Benefit, are cheaper than the Urban Decay ones but just as nice! They have a variety of products, so whether she is a "lip girl," "eye girl," or "contour girl," she will eat this right up! To wrap up the last gift of the girls, who can deny earrings? I mean really. These ones from Francesca's, are simple, reasonably priced and did I say, CUTE?!

Ah men. Gotta love them, but gotta HATE shopping for them! No, no I kid! Surprisingly, these ideas came pretty easily! For your S.O, two words: leather jacket. Nothing is more attractive on a man then a sharp leather jacket. Maybe it's because I have a crush on Danny Zuko -sigh-.... anyways back to the point of this post! I don't have a specific one to send you to, however the best way to look for leather jackets is to go to a department store. They carry the most variety. Next, workout gear! Under Armour is a great gift for a guy who likes to rock it out at the gym! Nike makes great running clothes that feature NFL, MLB, and NHL teams! Be sure to check it out! Lastly, MAKE HIM SOMETHING. As stated before, hand make gifts are great and are sure to make him smile.  

Brothers. I have one. I know the struggle to buy for them! Whether a gamer, or an athlete I have ideas for you! Gaming headsets are a great gift choice for siblings who are willing to spend more on their brother! These, by Sony, are sleek, cool, and more importantly, allow for your brother to talk to all of his friends while gaming! Next, shaving cream/ cologne. Personal grooming gifts don't seem like much, but are always thoughtful and will be used! Find a great scent, I recommend any scent by Art of Shaving, and purchase that baby! Lastly, if your brother is a bit sarcastic (which, most seem to be), this t-shirt is a hilarious gift. I can SEE the sarcasm dripping off this shirt! Can't you?!

Bros before (well, you know). Guy friends can be hard to buy for, you don't want it to be romantic, but you don't want it to be thoughtless. These pint glasses are a fun gift to give to a beer loving guy friend! Urban Outfitters carry endless amounts of funny glassware so you can create your own set- hop to it! ( Get it, hop? Like hops in beer? Sorry, I'll stop now.) Okay, so I don't know why my examples are all the Packers, but it was the easiest graphic to find! Hats are a great gift, not too expensive but still awesome. With the superbowl rolling around, he'll be thankful to be reppin' his team! Wow, here we are, the last gift. Earbuds. I personally think these are a great gift. Whether he is a music lover, only rocks out at the gym, or makes plenty of business calls- these will be super thoughtful! 

What, are you still here? Why are you still reading this?! You have shopping to do! Go! Oh, and while you're out, treat yourself to a coffee- you deserve it!
