With only a few shopping days left until Christmas, you may not have much time to take care of everyone on your list.
No worries, Brenda Flanagan has some gift ideas that may just do the trick.
 

Tis the season for giving, so we found an expert to give you some great last minute gift ideas for the girls in your life. Starting with a little bit of holiday cheer.

Gift guru Jamie Krell says your local liquor store does have great gifts, but this year switch it up.  She says, "Instead of bringing the usual and sort of expected bottle of wine or champagne, try somethign like Nuvo.  It's a French sparkling vodka mixed with a little bit of lemon."

The taste may be tart, but the price is just right.  $30 at most liquor stores. 
Unwrap a fresh scent with celebrity perfume packs. You can find ones from Beyonce and Halle Berry that are not only assessible, but affordable.

Jamie says, "Its really a great idea to take advantage of those gift sets around the holiday season because the fragrance alone would really cost about the same price its costing for the whole gift set and your getting 3 additional products"

Or how about getting the ladies in your life something from Carols Daughter.  They offer complete gift sets with all your bath & shower needs for just $25!

Jamie says, "You really can't go wrong when your getting stuff for the shower or for the bath.  Its something you know that women and girl friends are gonna use, they're gonna love and its gonna be put to good use."

And we can't forget about make-up. Jamie's tip is to try and find more, for less.  Her top pick, for $40 Malley has all your make-up needs wrapped pretty in pink.  And top off your girl's style with a clip-in hair piece like one from Hair-Do.  It's worth every penny.

Jamie admits, "Every celebrity that you see on the red carpet is wearing faux hair, I just gotta tell you now if you didn't know already, so for $49 you can get the same look, the same feel, you can even heat style it and you don't have to spend a lot of money."

And don't forget the stocking stuffers, petite presents do the trick.
