perfect gifts for your bff with lauren sims

Hello loves! Lauren Sims here from laurenkaysims.com. I'm so excited to be posting for LOLO Mag today and giving you some great gift ideas for your best friend! For those of you who have been following me for a while, you might remember that I toured Sterling Vineyards in Napa back in the Fall. When people ask me now what my favorite wine is, I always say a Sterling Cab. With intense fruit and well-integrated oak, the 2012 Sterling Cab is a powerful expression of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is a 10 in a 10 and would truly make the greatest gift for your best friend, or a hostess, or your husband, or basically anyone else in your life.A few other gift ideas for your best friend: you can't go wrong with holiday pj's. I recently got a set myself and actually live in them. Like, when I'm home, I'm in my Christmas pajama set! And how adorable are these Kate Spade wine tags?! This is such a cute and creative gift that's under $20.Also, let's just talk for a second about wine and chocolate. You just can't go wrong with those two things, ever. And these chocolates from Lux Maggie Louise Confections are just as pretty as they come! (Let me tell you, they also taste as good as they look too).Another no fail gift: a cashmere scarf. I love this blush pink one because it's feminine yet classy, and will go with everything in your (or your friend's!) wardrobe.If your bff is really into wine, I think this Wine-inspired fragrance set from Kelly and Jones is such a lovely and thoughtful gift! Don't worry - you won't end up smelling like wine. The fragrances smell so fresh and floral and are very subtle!Thanks for letting me share these gift ideas with ya'll today! I'd love for you to follow me along on instagram or via my blog! xx

one-of-a-kind pieces

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm a pretty basic "cut-offs and a tee" type of girl. I love fashion, but I feel like the majority of my wardrobe is made up of great basic pieces that I can mix and match with anything.This crochet dress however, is an exception. When I first saw it online, I thought it was bold, yet still feminine and classy. It stands out, but not in an obnoxious way. I think every girl needs to have a few one-of-a-kind pieces like this in her wardrobe. For special date nights (I wore this to a beautiful winery with Michael this weekend), or a trendy brunch. Something that makes you stand out from the crowd, but still lets you feel comfortable in your own skin.
