Not everyone has a vintage fashionista on their holiday gift list, but for those of you who do, here are some fabulous gift ideas to surprise and delight her.

Vintage Accessories

Why accessories and not clothing? Well, vintage clothing sizes can be tricky. Often size labels are missing on vintage clothes and even when available they tend to be very unreliable. In addition, many vintage clothing stores, especially those on the web, tend to have pretty strict return policies.

So…instead of giving vintage clothing as a gift, turn your attention to the many types of beautiful vintage accessories. There are so many options to choose from and one size fits all! How about a pair of Pucci sunglasses, a Christion Dior scarf, a lovely little compact, a gorgeous piece of costume jewelry, or a crocodile handbag?

Fashion Books

Selecting one fine book in a person’s area of interest is always a great gift. Here are a few titles that should please the vintage fashionista on your list:

Alligators, Old Mink and New Money: One Woman’s Adventures in Vintage Clothing

Valuable Vintage: The Insider’s Guide to Identifying and Collecting Important Vintage Fashions

The Fashion Book

20th Century Fashion: 100 Years of Style by Decade and Designer, in Association with Vogue.

Or choose a book on your vintage fashionista’s favorite designer.

A Gift Basket

If gift baskets are your thing, it’s easy to fill a vintage hat box with all kinds of treats:

Padded or wooden hangars
Acid-free tissue paper
Hollywood Fashion Tape
A sweater stone
Wool and Cashmere Shampoo
Gift certificates for eco-friendly dry cleaning

Vintage Fashion Magazines

Scout out a few vintage issues of Vogue or Harper’s Bazaar to really make an impression with a vintage fashionista. Any fashion-lovin’ gal will love looking through these guides to the fashions of yesteryear.

The following are just a few sites that offer gift certificates online: Enokiworld, Vintageous, Antique Dress and of course, Ebay.

Customer Review: Lovely Gift
This is a very nicely packaged and reasonably priced item. I gave it to my mother for Christmas 2007, and she loved it. The pasta was so fragrant that we had to hold the dog back to keep him from tearing into it himself.
