That time of the year again. When you start feeling the despair as the holidays are coming closer and you still have not found the perfect gift for your loved ones. But do not worry because Mr Dino is here to help. Today, I am going to give some tips of how to learn how to choose the right gift for him ( boyfriend, brother or even a friend) or her (wife, mum).
I have also included a gift guide to get some inspiration for the best gifts of the season. THE GIFT GUIDE FOR HIMEveryone thinks that is more difficult to find a gift for him. But men are more easy to satisfy. That does not mean that you should not get him a nice holiday gift. Choose a nice sweater that will become his favourite and always remind him of you. A nice funky pair of socks that will cheer him up. Even you want to go extra get him the game console that every guy wants. THE GIFT GUIDE FOR HERThe perfect holiday gift comes always with something gold or glittery and every girl loves. Choose something that she will use every day and it is memorable. A unique scent of a perfume or a leather card holder that it will remind her of you. Choose a gift set as it includes a few items and they always come in a cute gift box.
Fashion and in general the clothing industry is one of the biggest industries in the world. To be more exact, fashion is responsible for 2% of the world’s Gross Domestic product (GDP) which is valued at 3 billion dollars. People tend to take everything for granted without thinking about the effects of what they do. That is the reason for this post, to raise awareness to you, a person that might love fashion or hate it but at the end of the day, you and almost everyone else on this planet has a wardrobe full of clothes.
