This Week’s Gift Guide: Shopping for the Trickier Victims.

Some people are just hard to buy for.  Either because of their position or role in your life (boss, therapist, dad’s new wife), because everyone gives them something little & affordable already (teachers, coaches, trainers) or because they are just plain hard to find the right gift for (in-laws, teenage boys, preteen girls, snooty neighbors).  Here are some random items we found for the random folks in your life.

Your Boss if she’s a Woman

The taupe cashmere TEXTING GLOVES from B.D.Jeffries in Morrison Shops.  $75 and unlike the kids’ raga-mittens that look like you just pulled them off some hobo, these elegant full fingered gloves have small openings in each finger tip to allow for elegant, full sentence texting.  The pic doesn’t do them justice.  Go by and see.
