Gift Guide: The VP
Posted Wednesday, November 29, 2006 at 06:15PMCatching a soy latte with her requires finding a free slot in her BlackBerry’s hour book, show up ten minutes late and your appointment is canceled, cancel in less than 24 hours in advance and you’ll need to reschedule, at your expense.
Her suit’s as crisp as her manners and her way with words, she doesn’t do flats but won’t rock platform peeptoes until after her 9 to 5 for fear of vibing less than pro.
She’s a total VP.
And though she’s got the mind of a man, food isn’t the way into your most boss lady’s heart.
Instead, consider gifiting some Loubies, some ankle booties that seriously gloss, polish ooh la lovely, like her. An ankle boot may be just a New Wave rehash, but ask Monsieur Louboutin, and an ankle boot is your boss-y BFF’s new classic.
But maybe you’re paper-savvy, too, and rather invest a G in your own business than another pair of skyscraper heels for your VP. Downgrade, but barely, to this cheeky chic Tiffany & Co. Buy/Sell/Hold dice. “This is something that was missing from my stock portfolio management strategy,” says oO.
No, kidding, doll. Who do you trust for investment advice: that guy at WaMu trying to pimp you a mutual fund, or a luxury company that knows how to hustle?
“Tiffany’s sterling silver half inch dice, engraved with the words BUY, SELL and HOLD on each of the sides. Perfect for these insecure moments, or if you want to be more Las Vegas than Wall Street,” says oO. “Individual investment results may vary, but like all Tiffany’s gifts, it comes with the signature blue box.”
There’s one guarantee.
And another?
That she’ll ooh la love Zegari’s designer laptop bags. “These laptop cases are gorgeous!” says Shopping Diva.
Sure are. And we both know your VP doesn’t do nylon messenger bags, they’re just not boss. Not like designer laptop bags by Gina B. International. “I LOVE THIS BAG! Most important is it’s fashionable,” says Kibibi Springs.
Def most important, it vibes a touch Marc-y Marc, and -
“It also holds my laptop, personal necessities (wallet, makeup bag, cell phone, etc.), and office needs (highlighters, calculators, notebooks, etc.) in one location!”
Perfect, love.
So are these eco-chic stock listings cufflinks. Styled out of recycled newspaper, they vibe right for your lady hustler who likes to remember what paid for her Galliano suit. Another money smart reminder for is this ‘think of when you had none’ money clip. “Perfect for your office buddy who finally got that raise they deserve,” says Abh75.
And so your VP can wind down from her paper chasing? “Ciao Bella combines healing, mood enhancing, and relaxing essential oils with enriching botanicals, vitamins and minerals to balance the skin’s functions, reduce stress, and promote an overall feeling of well being,” says Beauty Cafe.
