This may be my last gift guide this year, so I better make it count! There are still some great ideas to give that hard to buy for friend!
I have gift ideas in fashion, beauty and oh…lets start with WINE!
Leer Vineyards Heroic Red ($16 on sale, reg $24 a bottle) — This wine shows aromas of boysenberry with hints of leather, cedar and cigar tobacco. Flavors are of raspberry jam, chocolate and black pepper, with a faint echo of black tea on the long finish. This blend contains 58% Syrah, 29% Merlot, and 13% Cabernet Sauvignon. A Portion of the proceeds from each bottle sold benefits the Military Warriors Support Foundation’s Homes4WoundedHeroes & Homes4GoldStars programs, which provide mortgage-free homes to combat wounded heroes and spouses of fallen heroes of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Leer Vineyards Valiant White Moscato ($14 on sale, reg $22 a bottle) With aromas of peach and orange blossoms, the citrus flavors are intense, peaches, and tropical fruits dominate. A soft and luscious mouthful with a hint of effervescence for a beautiful liveliness and a balance to the sweetness. While crisp and sweet this Moscato is a perfect pairing with spicy seafood or chicken, and is amazing while paired with bleu cheese, and desserts that include pears or peaches.
I just received samples of these and have tried the red. It is delicious! I’m not a connoisseur, but I like that I can taste some of the rich and smoky flavors, but it is not too dry. It’s a little sweet at the end, yum! I plan to try the Moscato over the holidays and am looking forward to that!

Q&Q Watches — The watch on the left is Q&Q Solar Smile Series RP00J013Y ($36 on sale now, reg. $40) and the watch on the right is Q&Q Solar Smile Mini Series RP01J003Y ($36 on sale now, reg. $40). The one on the left is a larger watch and the one on the right is smaller, but both are great for fashion forward friends!
I love that these are solar. To charge the watches, you expose the dial to sunlight. I think it’s great that you don’t have to worry about batteries! And there are many cute choices!
