Favorite Gift Guide

My favorite retail gift guide so far?

"The Awkward Holiday Gift Guide" from Need Supply Co.

I so could've used "the Secret Santa gift for you office holiday party- when it's your first week of work".

Etsy Love

While I might not have made my wish list yet, I know that I'm starting to think of what to get for my nearest and dearest on my list.
There are plenty of gift lists out there for your perusal (most retailers have already put together one by now).

But on my gift list I wanted to feature the talented folks over at Etsy (and bonus: they're all under $50, with most of them under $15. That's what we broke college kids call impress for less).
So lend a hand to the little guys and be kind to your wallet this year, because remember, it's not the money but the time that you spend on each gift that counts.

Geekery

I technically refuse to ever start thinking about Christmas until after Thanksgiving (and trust me, I do not participate in any of the Black Friday madness. I will be sleeping in until a decadent 2 in the afternoon thankyouverymuch).
But I saw these and I absolutely adore them.

Sobral Ming Pin Earrings

They're made from resin and old pieces of circuit board. Tres geek-chic.

I just need a pair of these to top it all off:
