It's not a question that we usually ask, but as the Holiday season gets closer, we find ourselves asking our guests: How big would you like it to be?

Traveling with a large shopping bag, or even a suitcase is not an option anymore for a lot of people. We hear you, carry-on only, whatever you can squeeze in there. Shipping costs are so high, you might just as well buy a flight ticket and deliver the gift yourself.     

On the receiving end of the gifts, we need to consider the city people, with limited closet space. The picky people, who prefer substance over size. The boat people (yes, we do have a couple of First Ladies that live on a boat!) where space is not even a word that they can use. And the people that actually like it small. Gifts that is. 

So yeah, size matters. 

While Paris, NY and Milan are all showing elephant size accessories, we decided to go off-Broadway, off-trend, and give you THE WEE GIFT GUIDE: Fun pieces so small you can hold in your fist (please don’t), and not larger than an iPad.
