Your bound to get invited to one (or five) holiday parties this season. And while we won't suggest you have to get a gift for every host, for every event”it's a nice gesture for some of the more important ones. Is your bestie cooking an entire feast for you and your friends? Get that girl a gift! Are you showing up late to an intimate event? Don't show up empty-handed! Basically, if it will be awkward for you to show up without any tiding of good cheer (in the form of presents), pick up something small to gift the host. We've got a couple suggestions to help you out.
Patch or lapel pin
On a budget? We hear you. But that doesn’t mean you can’t pick up something cute and inexpensive. Might we recommend the ever popular lapel pin or patch? Perfect for friends and family that like to show a little flair with their sartorial picks. The best part is you can easily support small Canadian businesses with this purchase! Look at brands like Crywolf and Heather Buchanan. This patch is by Montreal-based company Stay Home Club ($7).
