Fashionwithfifi's Holiday Gift Guides

The holiday season can be very stressful and in some cases overbearing for many of us. We have our fair share of stories of mistakenly leaving out friends and family members, waiting in long lines to find that the item that we’re looking for is not available and blowing the budget. And the ever popular syndrome – I’ve ran out of gift ideas. Don’t worry because Fashionwithfifi.com has the easiest and most inexpensive guides to helping you maneuver through the holiday season without the bumps and bruises.


Our first tip is to leave the lines behind and do some online holiday shopping. This is so convenient being at you get to do your shopping at the leisure at your home or office. Be advised that online shopping can be a cumbersome if you don’t know where to start, what to do or how to do it. Here are some of our tips for online shopping:

• Look for inspiration everywhere
• Comparison shop
• Repackage
• Check Shipping Rates & Dates
• Buy in Bulk

1. Look for Inspiration Everywhere

This step is the easiest of all, being that Fashionwithfifi.com provide our viewers with a lot of inspiration through our daily postings and features. Not only do we suggest nice items, we also provide our viewers with sale alerts to help save on cost.

2. Comparison Shop

Luckily for us, online retailers such as CharlotteRusse.com and Sephora.com offers online-only Weekly Specials and Sweet Steals on items you shouldn't miss. For instance, CharlotteRusse.com has a $5, $10 and $15 online exclusive sale where you can purchase graphic tees and select tops for $5, plaid shirts, tees and speaker gift sets for $10 and jumpsuits and robes for $15!

And at sephora.com, you can get a limited edition Korres Sugar & Spice shower gel trio for only $8, a $21 value, no promo code needed!

3. Repackage

Please don't mistake repackaging as regifting. By repackaging, we mean buying an inexpensive online item and repackaging them so that they appear expensive. Jewelry and accessories are great items that can be repackaged. For instance, you can purchase a $4.50 bracelet from CharlotteRusse.com or maybe two (since they're so inexpensive) and dress the jewelry up in a beautiful red ribbon. Not only will the gift appear expensive but the receiver won't know where you bought the items from. We're also certain that the receiver will love both the thought and gift!

4. Check Shipping Rates & Dates

Many online retailers are offering free shipping on all orders, while others require a minimum purchase of $50, so be sure you check the shipping rates before ordering. Another vital thing to be aware of is the delivery date. You do not want to order something online only to have it delivered days after Christmas. Make sure you plan and order your gifts ahead of time so that everyone can celebrate all at once.

5. Buy in Bulk

Remember the old saying "the more you buy the more you save," well that's exactly what you will find this holiday season online. Not only will you save on shipping but you can also receive free gifts with purchase.
