Jeremiah Williams is a Fashion, Lifestyle, and Travel writer from Indianapolis. He is the Executive Editor of Social Club 19, a men’s fashion and lifestyle site. Social Club 19’s goal is to highlight and promote national and local brands that help men reach their style goals. Williams is an official travel guide to Indianapolis on Visit Indy’s blog doingindy.com. He is also a regular contributor to Patternindy.com.
Tis’ the season for stressing over what to get
that guy on your gift list. Social Club 19 has 5
gift suggestions to make holiday gift giving so
much easier. Instead of getting him another
pair of gold toe socks or just a standard gift
card to a mall, think outside the box with
unique accessories for him. Holiday time is a
great time to give a gift that is something that
he probably wouldn’t purchase for himself.
Get your favorite holiday drink. Put on your
comfortable clothes. These gifts can all be
purchased online in the comfort of your cozy
bed and away from the cranky shoppers.

Give him a work appropriate bagSocial Club 19 has always been a fan of the leather and detail of The House of 5th designs. The fall collection’s Stellenbosch Attache leather bag is a great choice. You can’t walk into an important meeting with a backpack. This stylish bag is a wonderful leather bag with a 100% cotton lining made in Indiana.
The gift that keeps givingA fantastic style trend is affecting the pocket of men. Pocket squares are a great gift option for men. The pocket square is not just for suits anymore. Vests, denim jackets, and sports
coats can all benefit from a good square. 12 Fold is an Indy brand that recently launched a pocket square subscription
service. Each month a new square will be delivered to him.
A gift that gives him some optionsA great fashionable trend in menswear is a focus on the laces of the shoes. One of Social Club 19’s favorite resources is Stolen Riches. Stolen Riches is an online brand that offers a huge selection of colorful laces for your boots and shoes. A great gift for the guy on your list is one of their style packs that offer a collection of 3 laces in color combinations tailored to a range of gentlemen.
Soft skin is kissable skinSocial Club 19’s most recommended skin product comes
from Lush Cosmetics. They do have a great men’s skin care line. Lush has made taking a shower fun. They have some
great gift packs that have products that work great together, to give the guy on your list soft skin and will leave him
smelling good.
In this case a skull pattern is fashionable approvedScarf season is a challenging time for guys. How do you wear a scarf? What material of scarf is best for what looks? Social Club 19 will be answering these style questions this season on Socialclub19.com. The fashion conscience guy on your list will love opening up a wrapped present with an Alexander McQueen scarf inside.

ShaSAM3 was born in October 2009 by Julia Rutland. The name is a hybrid of her three beautiful daughters’ names. The true meaning of fashion is taking risks and being unique. Julia believes that the true meaning of fashion is taking risks and being unique — ShaSAM3 reflects this in every piece of jewelry by meshing hard with soft, masculine with feminine, recycled with new.
Julia crafts each piece with love, and hopes you enjoy wearing her jewelry as much as she loves making it.
