My Life

Cynthia’s Picks for the Best Holidays Gifts

Holiday shopping is up from last year with a strong economy and unemployment the lowest in 17 years. Seems the hardest part is just picking the right gift for family, friends and colleagues and finding the time to buy it. Fact is, working women don’t have a lot of extra time to get out to the malls. That’s one reason online sales are so strong, reaching $2.9 billion on Thanksgiving Day alone. So, here PINK CEO Cynthia Good makes it easy to shop. These are some of her favorite holiday gift picks! 

Says Cynthia, “I’ve been a fan of India Hicks since I hosted a fundraiser in my home last spring. Besides being a total badass, having five children, lots of animals and a shop on Harbour Island, she is the goddaughter of Prince Charles. She was a junior bridesmaid in his wedding to Princess Diana (she called it her worst hair day ever). She has spent her life traveling and discovering new things around the world. Her taste is extraordinary, just like her life, and her collection speaks to me on many levels. So, when it comes to holiday shopping, don’t stress. Here are a few of my favorite gifts under and over $100. If you’d like to see more, you can browse here; click and shop

The shipping deadline is December 21st for overnight! BREATHE … you can do this.

Happy Holidays and thanks for all your support!

Cynthia’s Favorites Under $100:
Never Ending Star Earrings
Perfect for your star employee, your sister or your mom; maybe even a reminder for yourself.
 
 
Dream On  
Remind your best clients and superstar friends and relatives to do the same.
 
 
Siren Scarf
A featherlight scarf, to be worn in so many ways: as an evening shawl, a quick accessory to
liven up another day of jeans, or simply as a sarong at the pool.
 
 
Good Luck Beetle Tray 
There’s also a beetle catchall, a lidded box and The Heritage tray. The beetle is India’s signature
bug since it stands for lots of good luck. 
 
 
Stationary 

Stationery engravers since 1878 and handmade in the US, great detail.
Long live the hand written letter. There’s little that stands out more in this digital age.
 
 
Agra Tassel 
The key to success is in the palm of your hands. Check out these key fobs in a
perfectly proportioned box designed to stand out like the magical Mughal fort it is named after.
 
 
Candles 
They’re all the rage. Check out The Grove and Casuarina and Black Hibiscus.
They are reminders of India’s island palm grove.
 
OVER $100
The Star Cuff 
This is the leading lady of India’s holiday collection. It’s gorgeous! It counts!
There are 1,840 Czech crystals. It’s time to shine-on!
 
 
The Chameleon
The beetle bag first appears to be a little makeup bag or pencil case
but hiding inside is an oversized shopper.
