Give the gift of luxury from Christina's By Linda Thorsen Bond for Holiday Guide

f you want to give the gift of luxury this holiday season, shop at Christina’s Luxuries in Boulder. When Owner Barb Wilson talks about it, it sounds as romantic as that novel you’ve been saving to read on the coldest of Boulder nights: “Luxury is a state of mind. It is the moment you put on a new plush robe on a cold morning or warm flannel pajamas right before crawling under the covers. It is the delicate lace of a sexy teddy or chemise skimming across your body as you pose in the mirror. It is the day you wear your favorite cashmere sweater that feels decadent with jeans that fit just right and cozy socks to top it all off. “It is the scent of a new candle lit while you soak in a tub of warm body oils, followed by your favorite lotion and heavenly perfume. It is your entrance into a holiday party wearing a stunning dress that everyone
compliments you on that flatters all the right places. “It is a new matching bra and panty set that feels like nothing and looks good under everything. It is giving the man in your life the best in men’s underwear because he deserves to feel luxury too. It is the joy of sharing time with those you love this holiday and into the new year. Experience luxury.” Christina’s has a full line of lingerie and the entire staff is trained to know what is best to fit and flatter. Fitting Fridays are a good time to visit so you beat the rush to get the right foundation for your holiday fashions. The shop carries many brand names in lingerie, but notable brands are Stella McCartney, Simone Perele, Hanro and even SPANX. For men, the new Saxx underwear has been rated by Men’s Health Magazine as the heathiest and most comfortable brand available.

that includes bikinis, tankinis, one-piece swimsuits and cover-ups. Of course, there’s no better time to give the gift of cuddly nightwear than the winter months. One of the most popular presents this year is UGG brand socks and robes. The Cozy Time pajamas by Eberjey and Natori’s plush Sherpa long robes are definitely appealing, but the real luxury is cashmere robes from Arlotta. The idea of a bridal registry isn’t new, but have you considered registering your sizes and preferences so someone shopping for you will be able to pick things you really want instead of that garter belt out of a James Bond movie? In the wrong size? (You could even register for the garter belt, if that’s your fantasy!) On Saturday Dec. 7, Christina’s is donating 15 percent of their sales to the benefit of “There with Care, Shopping for a Cause Has Never been so Sweet!” This charity provides a wide range of thoughtful
and fundamental services to families and children during the critical phase of a medical crisis, easing the burden of life’s day-to-day obligations with compassion and care. Don’t forget there’s free parking and free gift wrap at Christina’s Luxuries, 2425 Canyon Blvd., Suite 100, Boulder, 303.443.2421, christinasluxuries.com.
