I was going to put this post out next week but I figured this might be the weekend everyone is shopping for the Dads and hubbies. I sat down with Erik and asked him for some of his favorite things so pretty much everything here is Erik approved! I always find Father’s Day so challenging for gifts. While I want to get creative and think outside of the box sometimes it’s best to go with the classics but maybe add a twist because let’s face it — guys are pretty simple at the end of the day. So here it is. My Father’s Day Gift Guide for 2018!

FOR THE COOK OR GRILL LOVER
Lucky for me Erik does ALL the cooking in the house but I am good at picking out new things for him to use to make his cooking a lil spicier!
SMOKER BOX we have this and LOVE it. Use it to cook romaine lettuce and really spice up your salads. Just add a lil salt and pepper and you’ll be obsessed. Great for chicken too and adds such a nice smokey taste.
MONOGRAMMED CARVING BOARD I love anything monogrammed because it just adds that lil personal touch.
FOR THE GOLFER
TRAVIS MATHEW SHIRT AND TRAVIS MATHEW JACKET one of Erik’s go to brands for golf clothes. I love this jacket for playing in the spring and fall.
TRAVIS MATHEW HAT Erik has this exact one.
FOR THE ENTERTAINER
GALVANIZED ROLLING WAGON WITH BUCKET AND BOTTLE OPENER ok so clearly we can benefit from this gift too ladies. I mean come on how cute and on trend is this? Since we put our pool in I have found having a drink cart for when we host parties to be useful but also chic.
GALVANIZED DOUBLE BEVERAGE TUB beer on one side and wine on the other. Everyone is happy!
FOR THE BEACH LOVIN DAD
STRIPED HURLEY BATHING SUIT AND BLACK HURLEY BATHING SUIT one of Erik’s go to brands for bathing suits.
KIEHLS SPF 50 Kiehls for men? Yes please.
BEACH TOWEL complete your beach dad gift with those high quality towels from Pottery Barn.
FOR THE PRETTY BOY DAD
CLINIQUE FOR MEN ok so for the record Erik does not use skincare (insert my angry face) BUT Clinique has been my go to for skincare and this is what I would urge him to start using to keep his pretty face young and wrinkle free.
BELT one of my favorite belts from Erik’s belt collection. So preppy and classic!
HUGO BOSS FLIP FLOPS Erik is a HUGE Hugo Boss lover. These flip flops are perfect for the beach and look great with jeans too.
WATCH BOX and he has a thing for watches. I got him this one years ago and he still uses it.
FOR THE SIMPLE DAD
ALTERNATIVE BASEBALL TEE probably one of Erik’s favorite brands and mine too. They make the softest pieces perfect for weekends.
ZIP UP HOODIE let’s face it. Sometimes we just have to buy for a simple guy. You can’t go wrong with a classic hoodie. This one is in Erik’s closet and in weekly rotation.
PUMA GYM BAG they might wear ugly basketball shorts to the gym but at least they can have a stylish new bag.
LEATHER TOILETRY CASE a must have for their cologne, razor and shaving cream.
I know it’s hard to shop for anyone but ourselves haha but hoping this gift guide gives you some Father’s Day inspo!
Have a good weekend lovelies!
I like your gift recommendations! Great ideas for all Dad’s & Granddad! Thanks Tam!
Glad you liked it! Guys arent’t the easiest to shop for!
