Finals week has me completely stressed out but it’s almost over; 6 days to be exact. For all my college students out there just keep pushing through. I know you will make it. Its been a while since I’ve updated. You didn’t think I forgot about you guys did you? This time I have a gift guide for the men out there and I’ll be running through a few of my favorites.

• Starting off with a book called How to be a Gentleman. I thought this would be a nice gift to give someone and hopefully whoever you give it to you have a great enough relationship to know they won’t get offended. If nothing else it would look great displayed on a coffee table, desk, or bookshelf. Seriously considering getting this for my brother.

• This next gift idea I never knew existed until now. Maybe I’m just late to the party but they are collar stays. They do exactly what the name implies; keep your dress shirt collar in place. It seems so simple yet very useful.

• I haven’t mentioned it but I’m in love with anything needlepoint. That’s probably why 1/3 of the items on this guide are needlepoint. To save time and not completely bore you I’ll only be talking about one. This Smathers & Branson Monogrammed Card Wallet is amazing. They have many color options to choose from and it can also be personalized. We all know most men don’t like to carry much with them so this is the perfect gift; it holds all your essentials. Cards, license, and cash.

• Gift sets are always a good idea. They look nice and all of the hard work is done for you. This Barbour Scarf and Glove Gift Box  is perfect for the upcoming season. Imagine trying to find a pair of gloves with the perfect olive hue to match a scarf you bought. I know a total nightmare. I’m just kidding…maybe.

• The last item on the list is this Barrington Laptop Case. There are other color options but I decided to go with the Blackwatch Plaid for the holidays. It can be monogrammed but if you choose not to, the Barrington crest will stand in its place.
