Daddy Dearest: A Father's Day Gift Guide

Image from here.
Starting from an early age, I came to the vivid realization that all women must come to terms with: it sucks to buy men gifts. I love the men in my life dearly but it I would rather smash my favorite Dior palette than have to buy presents for them. Maybe I'm just not tuned in to the pysche of men but the thought birthdays, Christmas, and the dreaded Father's Day gives me hives. But fear not! I've compiled a list of Father's Day gifts for every sort of man, consider it my gift to the rest of women kind.

For the Man Cave
Buy here: Etsy
This iPhone/iPod charging deck is amazing! It's made from reclaimed French wine barrels and has a sleek minimalist design that even the pickiest man will love. It also won't break the bank at only $68.00, bargain!

For the Fashionisto
Buy here: Gap

I'm pretty obsessed with colored skinnies, and they're not just for women! Men look best in muted or jewel toned jeans, think burgundy, gray, or this orange/coral color. The fashion forward man in your life will appreciate your encouragement of the newest trends!

For the Globe Trotter
Buy here: Etsy

This passport case has a classic air about it, and you can personalize it match his style. I actually bought this passport case for myself and my man (we're cute like that) and the quality is amazing. I would certainly recommend it!

For the Bartender Wannabe
Buy here: Uncommon Goods

Whiskey stones will keep his drink cold without melting and making it watery. Made of natural soapstone, they are soft enough that they won't scratch his glass. You can buy them alone or with these classy glasses.

For the Scientist
Buy here: Uncommon Goods

If he's part Einstein, part jamie Oliver he'll love this molecular gastronomy kit. Don't know what molecular gastronomy is? Me either but your favorite scientist might!

Let me know what you think of these gifts and let me know what your buying the dads in your life!
