My Rant

I don't know about you, but when my fashion magazines start to arrive in November I get thrilled to see what gift ideas they have put together. I regret to inform you that none of the editors have stopped to realize that some Americans have been laid off or their hours have been cut to a minimum this season. While I knew I wouldn't be able to afford the luxury items that they put on the first couple of pages, I quickly turned to "Holidays on a Budget". Disappointed wouldn't give my mood justice, $150 for an Armani Exchange sweater was the cheapest item on the two pages. In the economic hardships are country is facing it almost makes me ashamed of the editors to not take this into consideration while making there picks. I should mention the magazines I'm looking in are not Vogue, W or Bazaar but Glamour, Marie Claire, Teen Vogue etc. So should we spent our entire budget on a $150 sweater, I would think not. I'm devoted to finding you gifts this season all for under 25. Keep checking back, lets call it.. Holidays on a Budget....for the rest of us.

Happy Holidays

Under 5

I've been trying to figure out a way to get everyone something this holiday season that wasn't a mug and some hot chocolate mix from the dollar store. It wasn't easy but I did it. I was able to get about 12 people on my list covered for about 5 dollars each. These are the sweet people that help me through the year but are not close friends or relatives. Here is what I came up with!!

Holiday Dresses

Tis the season to be dressy. Holiday parties are going to start in full swing. I've found some cute in expensive cocktail hour dresses. You can also add tights, new jewelry or a belt and wear it twice..
