Black Christmas: 2008 Holiday Gift Guide

Perhaps I was in a dark mood...or maybe it was the conversation I had with my boyfriend about his favorite Christmas movie, "Black Christmas" [a Christmas horror movie!?]... either way, as I began compiling my holiday gift guide, I quickly began to see a pattern -- you guessed it: black! Despite the slightly dark tone of the list, the gifts are actually all quite lovely, practical, and well-priced [all under $50!]:




Write a note for your sweetie or create a design of your own: Chalkboard Candle, $19.50. Delight.com.


So simple and versatile, but with an edge: Giles & Brother. 3mm Spike Bangle in matte hematite. $45. Gargyle.com.


If your loved one must have a vice, you can at least be sure they are warm and cozy while they indulge: Smoking Mittens, $25. Spoonsisters.com.



Slightly dark, but with a wink: Gothic Black Pom Pom Scarf, $36. Fredflare.com.




Gorgeous notebooks, almost too pretty to write in: Set of three Black Dahlia Notebooks, $18.95. Momastore.com.


A bit gothic Lolita, no?: Black Hard Candy Heart Sunnies, $11. Fredflare.com.






A great gift for guys or girls -- practical and stylish: Large charcoal natural deoderizer ball. $45. Fitzsu.com.
