It’s A Cinch

Is a belt a thoughtful gift?

Absolutely! A belt can be worn year-round and instantly pulls together any outfit. Great for a man or a woman, you don’t need to know the person’s exact measurements in order to buy one. If you are shopping for a man, a simple brown leather belt is a necessity and he can never have too many. For a woman, black will go with everything and she can use it with pants and even over form-fitting knits or a dress for a more polished look.

Just Bag It

What can I get for a woman if I don’t know her size?

If you are not sure what size she is, whether it is your daughter, your wife, or your friend, a great gift for a woman is a purse. American Living has two fantastic options, the plaid handbag and plaid tote. Both carryalls have a stylish check print and sleek black patent leather trim. For the woman-on-the-go, opt for the handbag because it’s easy to access everything inside. If she likes to look a bit more polished, buy her the lady-like tote. Either way, she’ll wear her new bag day to night and will thank you that she can fit all her personal items with ease.

What are some clothing gifts the kids will want to wear to school?

One of American Living’s biggest hits for girls this season is the buffalo plaid skirt.
