Holiday Gift Ideas for a Decadent Hobo
HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE FOR A DECADENT HOBO
Since I was the one who coined the term “decadent hobo” I have the authority to definitively say what the holiday gift ideas for a decadent hobo are. I immediately think of Stevie Nicks circa era. Or Pamela Des Barres in her first memoir and her time being in the first all-girl rock group, Girls Together Outrageously. Now that have you have a taste of what type of lady this pertains to, let us begin.

ROCKS, MINERALS, AND CANDLES
The first thing any self respecting boheme needs are rocks and candles to set the atmosphere. I suggest earthy woody smells, ones that smell like nature with mystery. Woodlot makes organic coconut & non-gmo soy wax candles with heavenly names like Cascadia and Wildwoods. [UPDATE: the brand is no longer around.] I would recommend or any wood scent from Sydney Hale Co. A favourite of mine is aptly called .
Rocks are another wonderful holiday gift idea for a decadent hobo. They could be into crystal gridding or even just like having them around as decor. I love scrolling the gem section of The Witchery as well as Cave & Canyon. Both shops have an incredible selection of jaw-dropping specimens.
DARK AND MOODY LIPSTICKS
If her lips aren’t already stained in wine, she is most certainly wearing a dark lip shade. My suggestion would be Diorific Rouge Khol in Bold Amethyst from their Holiday Kiss Collection. [UPDATE: this shade was limited edition, this shade is nearly identical: .] It is the most flawless deep purple matte lipstick that comes in the most opulent tube.

Once upon a time, I would wear anything I had around, torn gift-with-purchase beer boxers, volunteer swag, or old band t shirts. It’s the dawn of a new era of luxury, this decadent hobo has upgraded to matching pajama sets. I feel most elegant in my .

BOOKS ABOUT GROUPIES
A decadent hobo should have a plethora of books strewn across her apartment. The latest addition to my personal library is the epic photography tome of the golden age of groupies. My favourite photographer, Baron Wolman and his book belongs on any decadent hobo’s coffee table. Pamela Des Barres recent release, is also a must read. Especially if you’re interested in penning a memoir of your own!
ROSE FLAVOURED GIN
Finally, rose gin (preferably consumed from a tea set inherited from a deceased grandmother) is the ultimate drink of choice. Dillon’s Rose Gin is so good, it can be enjoyed on ice with a bit of soda water. I add some mint leaves just to class it up a bit.
