My sister bought these Mark and Graham Pill Cases that hold two weeks worth of pills as gifts last year and they were a huge hit. Choose your monogram style for that personal touch.

I have a thing for hairdryers. They have to be good and work fast. The idea of a dryer doing it's job in half the time at half with weight of regular ion dryers is appealing, so Harry Josh's Pro Tools Hairdryer sounds like a worthwhile investment.  Plus, it is in a cool Farrow and Ball-ish shade of green.

Have that hard to shop for person on your list? For those that have everything, a cashmere travel throw is always a nice gesture. Queen of Cashmere has this beautiful black and white blanket with it's own monogrammed case.
