Why is it that on an ordinary day in, say, April, you'll see something and think to yourself, "That would make the perfect gift for my sister/mother/niece/daughter/girlfriend. I'll have to remember this at Christmas!" And then when it actually is Christmas and you're shopping overtime, your mind draws a blank any time you try to think of something to get the people on your gift list. Frustrating. Here's a list of a few awesome holiday gift ideas for that best friend, favorite aunt, or covetous fashion blogger (ahem) in your life.
Let's start with this hot pink crystal studded cocktail ring. This is pure fun. It's chunky, gorgeous, and has a slightly retro look to it. I guarantee that whoever you give this ring to will put it on immediately and refuse to take it off, even when everyone is asking politely if they can try it on. The recipient will most likely sleep in it too, just like you did when you got that sparkly tiara for Christmas when you were six.
Makeup kits are great fun no matter what time of year, and this Sexy Starlet kit from Benefit includes three favorites done up in a fabulous pink and gold clutch box. You get CORALista cheek powder, a warm coral shade, Some Kind-a Gorgeous oil free foundation faker, and a tube of BADgal lash mascara. With a tube of tinted lip gloss, this could be a person's entire weekend makeup kit.

Got a lipgloss addict on your list of gal pals to shop for this holiday season? Search no more -- Stila has just released the ultimate gift set for anyone who loves sampling their famous brush-on lip glaze at the makeup counter but just can't bring themselves to spend more than $20 a pop! The Lip Glaze Holiday Collection consists of eight slightly-shrunken versions of their gloss for just $25! Four of the colors are best-sellers -- from Kitten (golden caramel) to winter-festive Cranberry (deep red) -- while the other four are brand new! Eight stellar shades at just a fraction of their $80 value? Sounds like a deal I need to jump on, stat! Of course, I should probably hold off on shopping for myself until after I start shopping for my friends and family...
Price: $25
Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add Stila Lip Glaze Holiday Collection to the Hive.
