The Ultimate GLOSS Guide for Gifting

Lindzi Armstrong

This Holiday season, don’t neglect those you love who happen to have very specific tastes. GLOSS has assembled a gift giving guide for those in need. Consider it our little gift to you

The Hipster

Possibly the most sought after “look” for the aging Emo-kid with a soft spot for hip hop. Look for anything fluorescent, trendy and chunky.

The LED umbrella

This is a perfect pick for these “global warming” winters when it doesn’t actually snow until mid-January, or if you live in Victoria. The LED umbrella holds its glow within the shaft. Comes in black with white lighting, and red with red lighting. Available at www.thinkgeek.com for US$24.99. Buy it while the Canadian dollar is hot.

Street Sketchbook

Over 60 artists are compiled into this handy coffee table book. The hipster in your life will surely love this piece of hardcover wonder, which offers a look inside the process and pain behind creating aerosol art. Check it out at Amazon.ca.

Casalife Lounge

Low, curvy and it still looks like it could be from a very sexy video game – this coffee table from Casalife will look shiny beneath the beer cans and thrift store ashtrays. Constructed from solid New Zealand Pine, each of these pieces has its own personality with knots and slight imperfections – sound like anyone you know? Available for $605.00 at www.casalife.com.
