With the holidays just around the corner, Celebrity Stylist Mark-Alan Harmon and Prime Outlets team up for the ultimate guide to gifting with style while minding your wallet.
According to Harmon, known for dressing Hollywood elite and for regular appearances on Style Network, E! and CNN Showbiz Tonight, shopping the outlets this holiday season is the ideal way to share your passion for fashion, while keeping an eye on your budget.
"The holidays are the perfect time of year to give gifts family and friends long for, but are unlikely to purchase for themselves," said Harmon. "This season, you can bring fashion and style to your gifting by shopping for designer goods at value-priced outlet centers."
At everyday savings of 25 to 65 percent off full retail prices, Prime Outlets' shoppers have complete access to style icons including Gucci, Michael Kors, kate spade, Giorgio Armani General Store and Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH, among many others.
According to Senior Vice President of Marketing Karen E. Fluharty, who manages the 21 Prime Outlets centers across the United States and in Puerto Rico, Prime Outlets partnered with Harmon for holiday gift recommendations to help shoppers find high-style gifts for a fraction of the cost.
"We know many people are shopping early this year and planning against a budget," said Fluharty. "This season is all about chic-onomics and these tips speak to our shoppers on a personal level and help them select exceptional gifts they can afford and are proud to give."
To gift like a stylist this season, Harmon and Prime Outlets suggest the following ideas for a holiday to remember:
- Designer Clutch: Mrs. Clause's Handbag -- Romantic and fashionable, give her a designer clutch she's sure to use on special occasions. For an even more luxurious handbag, look for interesting fabrics such as velvet, satin or suede.
- Leather Gloves: The Perfect Fit -- As the temperature drops this winter keep loved ones toasty and warm with a pair of luxe leather gloves. For a hint of refined elegance, look for gloves in a variety of lengths and colors such as hunter green or aurora red, or embellished with buttons or charms.
- Designer Jewelry: Bling in the New Year -- This holiday season is all about ornate, designer jewelry. Adorn her with distinctive pieces such as a crystal encrusted cuff or bejeweled earrings for a fabulous look that is sure to make a statement.
- Leather Journals: Bound to Impress -- Perfect for friends, co-workers or the person who has everything, leather-bound journals, address books, photo albums or sketch pads are thoughtful and useful gifts. Look for leathers in a variety of colors and textures to add a trendy, personalized touch.
- Fashion Tome: Deck the Table -- Books on fashion and style are the perfect accessory to any tabletop this holiday season. Be sure to choose hardcover books full of colorful images and inventive designs.
