21st Gift Ideas for Girls

WHAT ON EARTH DO YOU GIVE A 21 Year old lady ??

Well the answer would be easy if you knew the 21 year old really well, but what about those birthdays your obliged to go to, but have no clue about what the young lady likes!
Just the other day a friend of mine wanted some clues as to what he should get his friends daughter, he too was in this predicament. Being closer to the age of 21 then he was he thought I would have some answers .... sadly it did not come too easy to mind. Its quite tricky to get the perfect gift that's not too personal and at the same time doesn't scream no effort at all.

Now you could just put some money in an envelope or get a voucher, but if you really want other ideas I have come up with some Chic gifts ideas below with budgets ranging from $30 to $100. I hope this will help you too if ever you get caught clueless in this situation.

•  A good quality Journal with a Nice Pen - Take it one step further and get a travel journal if you know that they are going to be travelling. This gift is thoughtful and tasteful and its one that they can keep forever. You can find these items at any stationary shop. This website does beautiful notebooks and journals.

 Scribesarcade

•  A luxury Candle - This is a sweet gift to give and even sweeter to receive. This gift screams sophistication and is perfect to gift to a young lady entering her mature years. You can get some great candles at the website below. But once again you can find great candles in great gift shops or body shops

Candlecrush

•  A bottle - well this is a hard one to perfect. If you know their favourite awesome but if you dont, I would definetly get a bottle of wine from the year they were born. And being that they are turning 21 it shouldnt be too hard to get a hold of a bottle of wine from 21 years ago.

•  Pashmina scarf - Now if you have the means no girl will ever turn down a nice Pashmina Scarf. While these can range from expensive to very expensive, you could grab a nice Pashmina scarf from $100 from up market gift stores, below is one where you could go if you live in NZ

Redcurrent

• A great quality Photo Album - With everything "online" these days, nothing beats a sitting down and looking back at photos full of memories. This gift is thougtful and it will allow the young lady to fill it up with maybe photos of their 21st or whatever they please. This is a sure winner.

Well this is just a small list of ideas, at the end of the day just follow what you think is right and appropriate and dont get too caught up. I'm sure what ever you pick will be the right choice.

Good luck and have fun.

SPRING FORWARD

With spring just around the corner, I am genuinely giddy about being able to enjoy slightly warmer weather and also welcoming back nature's glorious COLOURS.

With every season I always prep my closet with essential basics!
I never follow trend too closely, unless it compliments my personal style because the ultimate fashion rule I follow is "Trend comes and goes,where Style is forever.

My basics for Spring: 

Birkenstock's are a must have in my closet for spring and summer !! These chic sandals have been around for centuries,1774 to be exact!!  YES these shoes go in and out of trend, but honestly they will last you forever due to the high quality material it is made out of, and also the famous foot bed modelled to the natural shape of your foot! They are simply perfect! 

Everybody owns a light pair of denim ripped jeans don't they? They are a stock standard in my closet, I believe they never go out of style! They are just so perfect to dress up with a pair of platforms and dress down with sneakers or in my choice Birkenstocks. I feel it just gives you that relaxed sharp look and is so effortlessly chic.

Colour screams boldness to any outfit, and to me I love injecting bold prints and colours to my stock standard basics. We are talking spring here so floral is a must. I've chosen this glamorous over sized tropical top, just to shock myself that warm weather is coming HA! 

My most favourite thing about spring is the blossoming of the flowers. My family and I love spending time in Parks. A tradition we do is to always visit the newborn lambs at Cornwall Park. This time of the year always allows me to reflect on how beautiful Nature and LIFE really is. 

I don't mean to sound like I hate Winter..... but Spring I am counting the days till you are here :)

For the longest time I have always wanted to start up a blog, but never knew when , what , where and how to start, so... I said to myself " JUST START!" and here I am at the start line, full of energy and ready to get this journey started!

Now seems like the perfect time to just give it a crack , and HEY, even if you are the only one reading this I have succeeded in my own little way :)

Here is a space where I will share hopefully everything that my busy mind can share, and in doing so I hope you find a common interest or any interest at all.

Enjoy and I'll meet you at the finish line where ever that may be ;)
