Gift Guide: The Men and The Athlete

| Fitbit, Gift Guide, J Crew

This week has been full of gift guides and it has been exciting, and slightly exhausting, putting these together and I have loved doing it.  Over the past five days you have seen my suggestions on what to get your best friend, your green friend, your tech savvy friend, the hostess, and the ultimate foodie on days one, two, and three of gift guides.  Today I bring you two more and tomorrow will be the last day with what to get someone you don’t know well and the best gifts for under $10!

The first guide today – what to get for the men in your life.  Who are the men?  Well brothers, fathers, sons, boyfriends, best-guy friends, and every and any other man on your list:

Sparkles and Shoes Gift Guide The Men Boys

For the men in your life a gorgeous dopp kit,  a massive gorilla eraser, portable NFL speakers, a gin-making kit, or the video game Grand Theft Auto Five are great gifts for under $50.  Next, for less than one-hundred dollars, you can buy that special guy a leather desk diary, a silk handkerchief, a classic wallet, a Lacoste polo, J. Crew fleece slippers, or an unbreakable iPhone case.  If you are going to spend more than $100 I love this black boys-boys watch, a portable high-tech camping stove, and this grey J. Crew Merino wool sweater.

The one present I missed? The Datevitation coupon book. Why did I skip it?  Well because it usually $25 but with the code SPARKLESANDSHOES you can get one for $15 with free shipping.  But even better you can win your very own coupon book, my Datevitation giveaway ends at midnight!

Next up is the gift guide for the athlete.  After Black Friday and Cyber Monday I am sure you are tight on cash so if you haven’t already picked up a present for your more active or athletic friends or family take a look at my picks. I have to give a special shout out to my girl Tarole over at One Haole Girl for some of these suggestions!

Sparkles and Shoes Gift Guide The Athlete

For the athlete the reasonable gift includes toeless yoga socks, sweaty bands, or the Feedzone cookbook which you can get for under $20.  The next level up, for under $50, you can get the awesome waterproof headphones or the Under Armour Superman t-shirt. If you have no budget for your favorite athlete I have heard amazing things about this balance ball chair and I am sure they would enjoy the Yurbd earbuds, FitBit Force wristband, the Capiz Jacket,  Senso Glove RH for gold, or top of the line compression socks.

Do any of these 15 boys-boy items or 12 athlete approved picks work for someone on your list?

    The only thing on here my guy would like is the Armani watch. Le sigh… I however, have been asking for the FitBit watch! I REALLY want one of those.
