    Father's Day Gifts For The Dad Who Has Everything

    If buying my mom a good Mother's Day gift was challenging, buying a Father's Day gift is nearly impossible! Already, there is a sharp decrease in the amount of beauty products, jewelry, apparel and fragrances that are marketed for men. My dad already has everything that he wants and if he doesn't have it, it probably means he can't afford it and if he can't afford it, I definitely can't! So year after year, right about now, I start racking my brains for something that is cool, unique and re-usable. After extensive research and many tiring hours of online shopping, I have come up with a list for myself as well as anyone else who has a hard father to shop for. From the quirky but practical, like a front-pocket wallet to help relieve dad's back stress and deter pick-pockets or a sweet and sentimental personalized photo night-light, you'll be able to find something for you dad who has everything! Your dad would probably buy you the moon if he could. Well, you can beat him to it and buy him an acre of celestial land, complete with a deed and documents! Workaholics, wine aficionados, gourmet gardeners and all those in between, check out this slideshow for some original Father's Day gifts that your doting dad is sure to love!

    Do Dad A Favor This Father's Day With Stress-Free Clothing Gifts

    We all know that generally speaking, men hate shopping. Although it would probably be a useful excuse to say that your addictive shopaholic nature comes from fierce bargain-hunting genes from both your parents, realistically your dad would probably rather be watching TV than trying on clothes in the dressing room. So while shopping-savvy gals like you or your mom might be insulted by seemingly obvious or "no-brainer" gifts like dress shirts or tube socks, you might be surprised to find out that when your dad says he needs practical gifts like clothes, he really means it. Forget that expensive newfangled GPS ('cause he'll never even read the directions to assemble it anyway) and think of all the time, boredom, and moaning and groaning you'll spare your dad by going out and doing his clothing shopping for him. By sticking to practical yet stylish gifts like a lightweight zip-up jacket, button-down striped shirts and sleek ties (after all, nothing says Father's Day like ties!), you'll be playing it safe in a good way by sticking to things you know Dad will actually wear and get good use out of. Check the slideshow for some easy-to-buy clothing picks that will keep your dad dressed to impress without him having to set foot in the hellish mall!

    Not all shopping is fun and games, trust me. I don't need to tell you about things that are fun to shop for- I do that all the time- but then are things that are completely unfun to shop for. Off the top of my head, I can think of a couple: foot cream, travel wallets, socks, headsets. All of these things fall into the category of "Things You Don't Necessarily Want To Buy But Probably Should." Here's a solution: get them for free! Earlier this week we told you how you could enter to win a Plantronics Voyager Pro Bluetooth Headset, worth $99.95. Want to know if your entry was the winner? Read on to find out!

    Father's Day is this weekend and if you haven't had a chance to pick up a present for dear old Dad, we are here to help. Fathers can be the worst people to shop for (I know my dad returns everything), but this year, Saks is helping children and spouses everywhere get a present he will really love. Starting Father's Day weekend (great for those last-minute shoppers), Saks Fifth Avenue in NYC will be holding an exclusive pre-sale event for PF Flyers. PF Flyers have been selling comfortable yet stylish sneakers since 1933. There is a pretty good chance your dad grew up on this brand and a brand he knows is a brand he won't return. These retro kicks are sure to make your father feel young again, while their modern detailing will keep him in the 21st century. Check out our friends at WhatsWear.com for more shopping news and fashion trends!

    Gifts for Grads: Frame the Memories!

    Looking for a perfect gift for the graduate in your life? Nothing could be more personal than framing a favorite photo as a gift, especially for high school grads headed off to college. I'm sure you agree - taking the time to print and frame a digital picture can take some serious effort, and is something that often is put at the bottom of the to-do list. That's why I love this photo collage frame from personalizationmall.com: you can pick any one-line message and it is lasered into a matboard. Just print a few photos for the back! Tip: it looks even cuter when you let one photo cut across two letters. For something a little simpler for the green-loving grad, what about the Mariposa recycled aluminum frame? It's glamorous and eco-friendly! Check out my slide show for other great photo frame gifts for grads!
