Christmas present ideas for my mom?

I am trying to decide what I should get my mom for Christmas. I donât have a lot of money to spend for Christmas. Iâm looking at around $50. My momâs birthday is in January, so I plan on purchasing something more to make up for it. Iâm not sure if I will buy something for Christmas so she will have something to unwrap or if I will just save her Christmas present until her birthday, when I have more money, and buy her something really expensive.

Anyway, my mom LOVES home items. She loves figurines and things that make the home look very homey. I currently do not have a vehicle. I live in a town where we only have Wal-Mart and JCPenneyâs. Wal-Mart is on a highway and impossible to walk to. So I either have to buy something online or buy a cheap outfit at JCPenneyâs.

Here are the things that I could get her:

1)A nice outfit at JCPenneyâs (She rarely buys herself nice clothes. The last nice outfit she got was from her birthday and I bought that as well.)
2)A hair regrowing set (my mom has been losing her hair lately. She talks about it constantly about how ashamed she is. Sheâs 64.)
3)A t-shirt from her favorite singerâs online store.
4)A pair of new tennis shoes she says she needs.
5)At Walmart.com, I found a blanket in the photo category. She loves pictures and I was thinking about getting a blanket with a bunch of my pictures while growing up. Here is a link to the site of what I was thinking: http://photos.walmart.com/walmart/loggedoutproductpage/prd=plushblanket/prdtype=18700/isfrom=_xffwalmart_xffcollageit
6)I could buy or make her a Christmas card and give her cash that she can buy whatever she likes when we will have transportation.

What do you think? Which should I get?
I can't buy a car for $50!

Going Out To Dinner...Help With Accessories/Hair/Makeup?

Q. its a kinda fancy-ish restaurant. this is the dress i'm wearing: http://www3.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.aspx?DeptID=50455&CatID=55886&GrpTyp=PRD&ItemID=13c0ea4&attrtype=&attrvalue=&CmCatId=50455|52333|55886
its white and brown, not black. in case you cant tell.

what accessories should i wear with it?
also, how should i do my make up? i would like my blue eyes to stand out more.
finally, how should i do my hair?? its below shoulder length. brown with natural red highlights.

Answer
Do an updo, kinda like Julia Roberts did when she won the Oscar. Your lipstick should be red with a black top lid eyeliner. I have found that this is perfect for blue eyes. Think Christina Aguliera. Make sure that your eyebrows are arched perfectly, though. Use a good brow shadow and good brow brush. Black patent strappy heels and a matching clutch purse should set it off!

Have fun!

Whats up guys,
I need to find something good to give my girlfriend for Christmas... it doesn't necessarily have to be a wrapped present either. Were both seniors in high school and we've been dating for almost 4 months, which has been perfect. I was thinking maybe along the lines of a dinner cruise on Lake Michigan in Chicago, since we live pretty close to the city. but that's a little too expensive, and might be too fancy. Im sure ill think of something creative/fun but for now, i have you guys. So, any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

http://www.polyvore.com/friend_bday_party_outfit/set?id=24982459

Should i do solid leggings if so what color of maybe solid leggings but on the side lace??

Answer
definitely go with the second outfit its edgy meets girly but its still appropriate for the occasion. I really like the lace leggings because they add a cool pattern that is suddle enough that it won't take away from the top.
Have fun!
