Last Minute Gifts for the Plus Size Woman

The holidays really do sneak up on us, don't they? I'd like to say I was done my shopping weeks ago but really I was finished this week. My husband, well, he usually braves the dark and cold and goes out the night before to finish things up if not begin. For a man who hates shopping, he couldn't pick a worse time to go. It doesn't matter what I do or say, he will probably continue to do his shopping this way. I'm sure he's not alone. If you are a husband, sister, daughter or some other friend or relative and you still haven't gotten anything for the curvy woman in your life. Do not despair. Here are a few suggestions:

Books

The book store has a wealth of gifts ideas. There's CDs, journals, and of course books. For a laugh and a dose of wisdom try Wendy Shanker's The Fat Girl's Guide to Life. It is a blast. For a taste of curvy fiction then you must get her the Odelia Grey mystery series by Sue Ann Jaffarian. Currently there are four books, the most recent is Booby Trap: An Odelia Grey Mystery. For the creative woman try Julia Cameron's The Artist's Way. Or get her a book about goddesses, like The Living Goddesses by Marija Gimbutas

Spa

Every woman likes to feel pampered. And it is even better when you don't have to do it for yourself. Take a quick trip to the local spa and book her very own spa day for the New Year, a facial, a manicure or a pedicure is always a welcomed treat. All three and you will definitely be in her good books.

Gift Certificates

Order them from her favourite online shop and have them delivered to her email. Don't know where she shops? Here are a few suggestions that are sure to please:

* Hips and Curves
* Lane Bryant
* Kiyonna
* Torrid
* Apple Bottoms

Season's Greetings to you and yours and all the best for the New Year.
