Holiday Gift Guide 2010: For the Classic

It's that time of year again! Holiday Shopping time! If you are anything like me, it probably just occurred to you that its about time to get organized with holiday gift giving. I must admit, I am a bit behind this year! I usually start my shopping Black Friday but with my trip and all I'm just a alittle late to the game.

To help get your Holiday Shopping in gear we will be doing a 12 part Holiday gift guide - "12 Days of Great Gift Ideas for Everyone on Your List" from the trend-setter to the alpha male to the athlete. We all have different types of people to buy for, but no matter what your budget or the personality of the person accessories always make a great gift!

Tonight's edition is for the "classic." We all have one in our lives... maybe she is your mother or maybe she is your best friend. Either way the "classic" likes simple, high quality wear that is timeless, sophisticated and chic but never, ever overdone.

It's Beginning to Feel A lot Like... Burberry!

There is something about the Fall season and that classic Burberry check pattern that just go together. With Fall in full swing (despite the freakish 80 degree weather today) I've been begining to think alot about outerwear, specifically Burberry outerwear. And to be honest with you all, I'm an outerwear fiend. I can never have enough coats, jackets, vests, scarves, hats. Well, you get the idea...

Burberry does the Fall jacket well and this season, their new younger, fresher (slightly more affordable) Burberry Brit line as a bunch of pieces we are just absolutely lusting after! We think it may be the season to finally splurge on a good trench... thoughts?

Below are some of the best pieces from the outerwear collection for Fall, all available at Saks.

From Top to Bottom (Short Checkered Trench Coat, $695, Fur Trimmed Hooded Parker, $995, Convertible Jacket/Vest, $695, Knit Checker Jacket, $575)
