Graduation is an important milestone worth celebrating. If there is someone special in your life who will be donning that cap and gown, make sure it’s filled with pomp and circumstance by giving them some great gifts from NorthPark Center.

It used to be the power suit, and now it’s all about the power blazer.  Whether he is going out into the workforce or heading off to college, a great blue blazer is a wardrobe essential.  This Ludlow Club Blazer is made from a renowned wool mill in Italy and is fully lined. Pair it with khakis or dress pants for a more formal look or with jeans to dress it down.  Available in blue or grey and retails for $425 from JCrew Men’s Shop at NorthPark Center.

I still cherish the pearl necklace I received for my graduation.  David Yurman offers a variety of great styles from the classic string of pearls to modern pendants.  From their Cable Collectibles is this Pearl Charm with sterling silver and cultured freshwater pearl.  Retails for $250 from David Yurman at NorthPark Center.

Another great gift option is this I-Pad Leather Portfolio designed for the new iPad Air. It comes in a variety of colors and has a hidden magnetic activation that automatically starts the device when opened.  Add the graduates monogram for an extra touch. Retails for $143 from Tumi NorthPark Center.

All graduates appreciate money and gift cards!  Let them choose whatever they want by giving them NorthPark Center Gold, which can be used at most of the 235 retailers and restaurants.
