It's Time to Begin the Countdown to Christmas!

2012-11-28 00:00:00

It’s time to get your advent calendars at the ready because it’s only 3 days until the beginning Advent! The Christmas decorations may have already appeared in the shops by the end of October, but for the average holidaymaker, it’s not until December that we can truly begin the countdown to Christmas day.


So what will you be buying for your loved ones this Christmas?


Check out this quick gift guide if you’re struggling for ideas...


The WifeDior CD3228 glasses


When it comes to shopping for your wife, you know she’ll appreciate a pair of luxury designer glasses. And, as it Christmas, choose something a bit more special than her average everyday pair. These Dior glasses feature a flattering cat-eye shaped tortoiseshell frame with attractive gold temple detailing. The narrow arms and delicate frame is both feminine and classy, meaning that even if you’re not 100% sure of her style, you’re onto a winner. 


The Husband


For the female shoppers, choosing a pair of frames for your husband could be difficult. For a pair of glasses that are both stylish and masculine, Alexander McQueen is a good brand choice. As for the shape, opt for a simple rectangular or wayfarer frame with wide acetate arms for one of the most popular styles.

Ernest Hemingway 4618
The mother-in-law


Buying for the in-laws can be tricky, but just to be safe, opt for a pair of classic retro frames like these Ernest Hemingway glasses. Ernest Hemingway is a popular glasses brand renowned for its vintage, elegant styles with attractive colours and frame shapes. These round tortoiseshell glasses would make an ideal gift and are universally flattering.


Son or Daughter

Ray Ban Wayfarer
For a teenage or adult son or daughter, the best choice would be a pair of cool Ray Ban sunglasses. Ray Ban is the most popular brand at the moment, as seen on the likes of Beyonce and Jude Law. As you may feel out of the loop when it comes to young celebrity style, Ray Ban is an easy choice and a brand your son or daughter will recognise and appreciate. 


To avoid the Christmas rush, ordering online can be the ideal solution. Simply choose, click and wait for your parcel to arrive at your door!
