Father’s Day is this Sunday and I was thinking it would be fun to shop. Where, you ask?…the World Wide Web, of course.
There’s something so masculine about a crest, isn’t there? (I apologize for becoming side tracked so early in my post)
Be advised, the following gift ideas are items that may tend more towards what I wish Hubby would ask for, as opposed to what he actually wants although there are a few things contained herein that I’m sure he’d like (even if they are out of our price range).
Unlike most women, I don’t think men remember to upgrade or replace their travel bag…isn’t there a formal name for these. I call it a make-up bag but not in front of Hubby.
Hubby already has the pocket briefcase and the cards but he enjoys using them so much I thought it would be helpful to others to know what a great gift this is for the man who likes lists. {Source}
This little desk clock is totally out of my price range but if you can afford it for the man in your life I’d bet he’d think it was pretty cool…or is Cartier a woman’s passion?
If your man loves his Starbucks, so much that he spends $20 or more a week on those Grande Lattes, I highly recommend an espresso maker. I know they are expensive but they sure make a great latte and amortized over 1 year they pay for themselves—if you’re a Starbuck’s / Peet’s latte frequent-drinker.
Okay, maybe Hermes is out of my price range as well as the Cartier clock, but this particular throw looks so soft and I just love the colors and it seems to be more masculine than some throws…is that justification enough?
On to more practical, and affordable items…these RayBan’s are a classic favorite.
There’s nothing like a gift with a history…William Penhaligon, founder of the English perfume house in 1860 was Court Barber and Perfumer to Queen Victoria…the Duke of Malborough {and my hubby} wore Blenneim Buoguet (the fragrance above).
Now I realize that Sperry red canvas shoes may seem like a lousy gift, but I happen to know Hubby would like a pair…shhh, don’t tell him I’ve gotten him a pair!

Karen,
You highlight some wonderful gifts that I wish Tom wanted (but doesn’t). I’ll probably be getting him a large, non-stick skillet — boring! However, he did buy a pair of red Sperry tennis shoes for Ian’s wedding.

Linda,
These guys and their nod to the retro days of their youth! Hey, a large non-stick skillet sounds good to me, especially if he is going to be cooking you a great meal. 🙂

Talk about retro, my husband wanted a coin purse that he was unable to find for years. It was the kind you squeeze and put your change in made of leather. Well I found him one and gave it to him for his bday, and its about as retro as you can get: http://www.walletgear.com/change-purses/easy-squeeze-leather-coin-purse.html

Hi there! I know this is somewhat off-topic however I needed to ask.
Does managing a well-established website such as yours take a massive amount work?
I’m completely new to blogging but I do write in my journal every day. I’d like to start a blog so I can share my personal experience and views online.
Please let me know if you have any kind of recommendations or tips for new aspiring blog owners.
Thankyou!
