It’s no secret that women of all ages love the color pink – it has even been scientifically proven! Chances are you have a pink lover among your friends or family, and need to come up with new, fun gift ideas for Birthdays/Christmas/Valentine’s Day/Other Special Occasions. I’ve selected a few gifts I know I would love to receive.
Rose Body Oil With biodynamically grown ingredients, a solid blue glass bottle with a hot pink label and a subtle, soothing rose scent, this body oil from Weleda feels a lot more expensive than it is ($25). Even though it consists of almond, jojoba and rose oil, it does not feel greasy on your skin. The oil absorbs surprisingly fast, and leaves your whole body feeling smooth, hydrated and smelling faintly like a rose garden (but not too much so!).
Wine Opener The hot pink “Chic Lady” wine opener from L’Atelier du Vin deserves a place in any wine-drinking pink lover’s kitchen. At $44, it’s affordable enough that I personally would add a bottle of wine to go with it. Chateau De Segries Tavel Ros perhaps, in keeping with the pink theme. $44 for the opener and $17 for the wine.
Espresso/Cappuccino Maker Who doesn’t love a cup of strong espresso or creamy cappuccino? Bialetti’s adorable Pink Mukka Express ($89.95) and Dama Pink ($42.95) will make just that, right on your own stovetop. Both are super cute with black bases and pink tops, and since a portion of the price goes to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, you can feel extra good about buying one.
The Cutest Camcorder On Earth The Flip MinoHD from Pure Digital Technologies is not only a great little camcorder (3.94″x1.97″x0.63″); it is cute as can be as well. What makes it so cute? You get to design it! Choose a style from their gallery (there are tons!), use their “pattern maker” to create a totally unique pattern, or upload your own design or photo. But it’s not all looks: it has a 2x digital zoom, an f/2.4 lens, a 1.5″ screen, 4GB of internal memory, a built-in flip-out USB arm, and a tripod mount, and it only weighs 3.3 oz. The price? $229.
TL9 Digital Camera Samsung’s cameras all come with great features and extras, but few are as tricked out as the TL9. This chic little camera comes in 3 colors (silver, black and pink) and manages to fit a multimedia player, camcorder, voice recorder, text viewer and MP3 player into its sleek body. The camera itself is nothing to sneeze at either. It has a 5x optical zoom, 10.2 MP, smile, blink and face recognition, dual image stabilization, a focal length of 38-190mm (35mm equivalent), and 11 difference scene modes. Retail price is around $240.
Vertu Cell Phones Not widely known in the US, these handmade cell phones from UK-based Vertu (a subsidiary of Nokia) are uber-stylish gadgets that would make any Valentine gasp with delight.
There are three pink phones in their “Constellation” collection: the “Monogram Cerise”, the “Core Range Pink” and the “Precious Range”. The Monogram and Core both have pink leather backs and stainless steel fronts, and the Precious is black leather and 18k rose gold with black ceramic keys. All weigh 5 oz., have GSM coverage in 180 countries, Bluetooth email, web browser, 400 hours of standby and 5.5 hours of talk time.
The exquisite Signature Diamonds collection includes the ultra luxurious Rose Gold Pink Sapphires and Rose Gold Pink Diamonds phones (both encased in gold, and the face of the phone is framed with a garland of pink flowers, in sapphires, rubies and diamonds). These two phones measure 4.8×1.6×0.6, weigh 7.1 oz., have 3-9 hours talk time, 300 hours standby time, coverage in 175 countries, a loudspeaker, voice recorder, multimedia messaging, and more.
$6,000 and up might seem like a hefty price tag for a cell phone, but not only do you get an uber-chic, exclusive phone – you also, with the press of a button, get access to a round-the-clock concierge who will help you with everything from finding that perfect gift to putting together an itinerary for your honeymoon.
