Gift A Day #1: How Charming

Saturday, December 01, 2012


Welcome to the 2012 Shot of Brandi* Holiday Gift Guide! My Bachelor of Science in Shopping, helps me spot some creative ideas for friends and family.

Last year I started featuring a gift every day and I’ll do that again this year. I love a good theme, so each year for a few days I theme things up.

One of my favorite songs of 2012 was “Rack City,” in which I learned that “racks” are stacks of money. Inspired by this future classic song, this year’s theme is gifts by different racks – aka by price. I’ll have a bundle of gifts under $10, $25, $50, $100 and then a post of “price is no object” items. Whoot Whoot!

So let’s kick things off with today’s item. This is a personal favorite of mine. For that lucky lady on your list, give her the gift of a little blue Tiffany’s box – seriously, you can’t go wrong with something from T&Co.


I recommend the Tiffany charm bracelet and a charm. Tiffany’s then has a large selection of adorable charms in the $100 - $150 range that you can add for birthdays and special milestones when you are stumped for a gift. 

One tip -  if you are buying charms for a link bracelet, you need to buy a little hook thing to put the charm on the bracelet. Don't forget to ask for it. They are an extra $15. T&Co will also permanently  put the charms on your bracelet if you want. 

And yes, two of my favorite charms are featured in my blog header ; ) Thanks Shot of Mom!
