The holiday season is upon us. Let the gift buying begin! First up are mama, pops, nana, and dada. Compared to friends and siblings, they're easy to shop for; they don't expect too much and just your effort will make them happy. But for all their love and support, they deserve an awesome gift, like this Victoria's Secret The Soft and Sexy Wrap ($39, originally $58) for mom. At that price, your wallet will adore it, too. Be sure to check out all the Sugar Network's 2009 Holiday Gift Guides as well.

FabSugar's Father's Day Gift Guide: Grandad

FabSugarUK — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 03:00:13 -0700

Father's Day is fast approaching, but have you got your presents yet? This weekend you might want to treat your Grandad too, and I'm sure he can always do with a new Summer shirt.

Just because it's supposed to be Summer doesn't mean it's actually warm, so a fine knit jumper might be just what he needs. This fine knit (£59.95) sweater from John Lewis is perfect for layering over a shirt. Alternatively, a Summer hat is a great way to protect him from the effects of the sun, Marks and Spencer offer this classic style (£16).

Tan Leather Plaited Belt - £20.00	Ambassador Summer Hat - £16.00
5 Luxury Pure Cotton Multi Stripe Handkerchiefs - £8.00	Linea Large Check Short Sleeve Shirt - £35.00
John Lewis Cotton Silk Short Sleeve Shirt, Blue - £25.00	Barbour Fine Cotton V Neck Jumper, Navy - £30.00
Light Brown Leather Rope Belt, Anderson’s - £60.00

FabSugar's Father's Day Gift Guide: New Dad

FabSugarUK — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 03:00:17 -0700

Being a new Dad can be an exciting time, especially with Father's Day taking place this Sunday. If you're a new Mum, related to new parents or maybe just really close to someone who is just getting to grips with parenthood then you could get one of these gifts for them.

It's important for a new Dad to bond with his child so a baby carrier (£24.99) could be the perfect present. Alternatively, new parents will undoubtedly have to be prepared for every occasion so maybe a man bag (£25) is the most important accessory. Eley Kishimoto's collaboration with Eastpak offers a funkier alternative (£60). See below for some more ideas for Father's Day.

It's that time of year again when you need to make a fuss of your Dad!

Next Sunday is Father's Day on both sides of the Atlantic, and what better way to thank him than with a fashionable gift.

As the weather is getting a bit warmer in the UK you can move away from socks and scarves and instead opt for handkerchiefs, light weight shirts or a bright coloured tie. See below for some gift suggestions for a range of budgets, – and don't forget to buy a card!

Shirts His Way

FabSugar — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 04:50:00 -0700

Want to know what Brian Sugar got himself for Father's Day? The proud papa scored himself some custom dress shirts via ShirtsMyWay. This site, very masculine and tough, takes you through the steps of creating your own dress shirts.
He can pretend he's in a video game all the while picking out fabrics, short or long sleeves, collars, cuffs, pockets, plackets (didn't even know what these were), yokes, buttons - pretty much everything and anything shirt-related. Then he enters his measurements and $75 later he has a custom-made dress shirt. It seems a bit laborious to enter all the info but they save it all organized for you. Plus, free shipping worldwide. Father's Day is next Sunday, design him some swanky shirts or get him a gift certificate. There's currently a special - buy any two shirts, get one free. Wheee . . .

Go Grab Happy With Puella Grab Bag Totes

FabSugar — Fri, 08 May 2009 08:50:22 -0700

Grab bags are so much fun. The idea of not knowing exactly what you're getting is thrilling. Back by popular demand are Puella's grab bags featuring merchandise from its Spring and Summer collections. The Silver Grab Bag ($100) has five pieces in it; the Gold Grab Bag ($150) has 10; and the Platinum Grab Bag ($200) has 15. In addition to the clothes, you get this adorable Puella canvas tote. They may seem pricey at first, but in fact they're money-savvy. With the Silver option - $100 for five items - each piece is only $20. Not bad, right? May I suggest you and four friends each chip in $20 and get a grab bag for your friend's birthday?

"L" Stands For Lovely Fab Mommie

FabSugar — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 07:50:22 -0700

My mom's name is Lori. And that's all you need to know, specifically. Generally, she is the coolest, sweetest, funnest, loveliest mommie - ever. Lori is a knitter, and therefore she's always toting around projects to her knitter friends' houses. Don't tell her, but I'm getting her this Alphabet Bag Tote ($20, originally $28) for Mother's Day; she can parade her L mommie pride all the live-long day.

FabSugar's Mother's Day Gift Guide

FabSugarUK — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 11:00:57 -0700

It's very nearly Mother's Day which means it's time to spoil the most important woman in your life! Traditionally Mothering Sunday is about giving flowers, but this year why not branch out to something that will survive longer than a week.

If you wanna stick with the floral theme then these Cath Kidston slippers (£28) are a great option – they even come with a cute matching dust bag. If you want to get a cheap and cheerful present then how about this floral jewellery roll (£7.50), lovely for weekends away.

Fab Gift Guide: The Bomb Boyfriend

FabSugar — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 08:00:22 -0800

If your man is the bomb boyfriend, meaning he's been there for you through bad haircuts, crazy outbursts, and even fixes your car (aw); then it's time to up the ante. This Valentine's Day, forgo the red silk boxers and get creative. It's not rocket science, boys are pretty easy to shop for. Get him a gift he actually needs or splurge on something he would never buy for himself. My friend's BF loves to surf; he would flip over these Oakley Hijinx Sport Wrap Sunglasses ($100) modeled by Adam from The City.
