Christmas is upon us! Although working retail during the holidays can be exhausting, I really enjoy assisting customers in hand picking beautiful gifts for their loved ones. This time of year can be stressful and with only 5 shopping days left Fashology and Vintage Parallels have joined forces to compile a list of fabulous gift ideas! We hope this helps.
1. Ipad Mini $249.00
The Ipad Mini is perfect for the techie you know. With the ability to have your life at your finger tips the on the go gal will love this! When purchasing the Ipad Mini you are given the option to rely on wi-fi connection or adding cellular (additional fee). An Ipad Mini Case would pair nicely as an additional gift! http://www.apple.com/
