Chanel N°5 Eau de Parfum Purse Spray
If we were to ask you to name a never-goes-out-of-style fragrance, you’d likely say Chanel N°5. Though the powdery floral, ideated around notes of neroli, May rose, aldehydes, and bourbon vanilla, has been in high demand since its 1921 launch, Chanel continues to find ways to give this classic scent new life. For example, this year, they debuted this adorable purse spray that features three vials of the eau de parfum which can be housed in a sleek case adorned with a wearable gold chain. Vogue editors were immediately taken by this, and we’re certain your giftee will be, too.
Bottega Veneta Andiamo Intrecciato bag
Classic and trendy all at once, Bottega Veneta’s Andiamo bag is a staple found on the arms of almost all industry insiders, and celebs for that matter. With a roomy fit to comfortably store all her purse essentials, it’s a true heirloom-in-the-making handbag that will last for seasons in her closet, and not just for right now. You can never go wrong with a chic new carryall, as we like to say.
Dorsey Lucien White Sapphire Earrings
Dorsey is the name on every jewelry enthusiasts’ lips, beloved for its sparkling lab-grown tennis necklaces to these white sapphire earrings, below. At an under-$300 price point, this top gift looks and feels like a splurge without ever breaking the bank. She can wear hers dressed up with a party-ready mini and kitten-heel pump or down with a simple white tee and jeans.
J.Crew Cashmere Crewneck Sweater
Cherry red continues to dominate our seasonal shopping carts—at this point, it’s just another neutral. Sought after for their luxurious (and affordable!) cashmere, J.Crew’s crewneck sweater belongs on several Vogue editors wish lists, from Vogue’s Executive Fashion Director, Lisa Aiken to fashion editor, Mai Morsch. Wrapping tip? Keep things in the color family and tie hers up with a sweet red bow!
Dyson Special Edition Airwrap Multi-Styler
Are any of us surprised that the Dyson Airwarp has landed on our top gifts list for the second year in a row? Well, we aren’t. The coveted multi-styler remain’s one of the industry’s most impressive hair tools, which is why it’s still so sought after. The brand’s Coandă effect powers its styling capabilities—managing to dry and style hair with minimal heat damage unique a air flow system. The device arrives in a set with seven attachments, though the long barrel wands are our favorite for curling, whereas the brushes make raking through full manes a quick process. And if its tackling flyaways, there’s an attachment for that too. And in this limited edition strawberry pink hue, how could one resist?
Prada Leopard-Print Shoulder Bag
We can always count on Prada for crowning the season’s newest It bag. While their ladylike top-handle bags and charm-detailed totes are definitely eye-catching, this leopard-print shoulder bag is the undeniable standout for fall and winter. Worried about its staying power in your (or your loved-ones) wardrobe? Don’t be! In our opinion, it belongs right next to your go-to everyday handbags in black or brown. These days, leopard-print is just another neutral—and the most notable one at that.
Khaite Benny Belt
No cool-girls wardrobe could be complete without Khaite’s silver-studded leather belt. Vogue Shopping’s own senior editor, Talia Abbas, wears hers almost weekly with everything from tailored black trousers to lived-in blue jeans. The prized piece is also a given during fashion month where the street style scene shows off theirs front and center. The ultimate classic with a twist, keep her closet up to date (and forever in style!) this holiday season with the below leather luxury from Khaite.
Westman Atelier Lip Suede Matte Lipstick Trio
We haven’t seen people rally around a new lipstick in the way the masses took to Westman Atelier’s. Founded by legendary makeup artist Gucci Westman, her line introduced its first lipstick collection Lip Suede—in a matte finish no less, signifying to many that smoother, non-glossy finishes are back and better than ever. But instead of the dry, flaky mattes of our youth, these go on buttery soft and manage to cushion lips in peptides, hyaluronic acid, and botanical extracts for a hydrated, plump pout.
Alaïa Crystal-Embellished Suede Ballet Flats
Last year, no one could ignore the virality of Alaïa’s crystal-embellished leather Mary Janes, spotted on nearly everyone from the street style scene to Vogue editors alike. Not straying far, this season is all about the sumptuous suede version. In case you hadn’t heard, all things have been coming up suede for fall and winter. These statement shoes are also the perfect example of that trend-to-wardrobe-essential pipeline that we’re constantly waxing poetic about. If you were looking for a reason to finally add these beauties to your cart, well, this should be it.
Chanel Rectangle Sunglasses
Our dressing mood this year lent more mature, stealth, and effortlessly elegant than ever before. With style inspiration coming from some our favorite fashion girls throughout history, like Carolynn Bessette-Kennedy, Jane Birkin, Lauren Santo Domingo, to even the Olsen twins, one elevated wardrobe essential always stood out in our research: A chic pair of black sunnies. With subtle gold embellishment and a flattering rectangle frame, she’ll look the part in this pair from Chanel.
Prada Suede and Shearling Slippers
’Tis the season for cozying up by a roaring fire, lounging in soft separates, and sipping on hot teas and whipped cream-topped cocoas! The one thing missing in each of these scenarios, though? Prada’s suede and shearling slippers. Bound to sell out fast, we recommend getting your hands on these sooner rather than later. They’re a welcome upgrade to the ones she’s likely had in her cold-weather wardrobe for years. Pro tip: Make sure to add a luxury pair of pajamas to your cart, too for a chic full look—if not, these can also be worn outside just the same.
Bottega Veneta Eau de Parfum
Bottega Veneta made waves last month when it unveiled Matthieu Blazy’s first fragrance collection. At first glance, the packaging is a sculpture to behold on its own—the organically shaped glass bottle is made to look like Venetian blown glass with air bubbles and all, topped with a gold rim and corked top, resting on none other than a weighty slab of Verde Saint Denis marble. Inside each bottle lies one of five scents, each inspired by scents from around the globe. When we tested them, Déjà Minuit was a favorite—offering a warm, aromatic spice via notes of winter lemon, cinnamon, cardamom, and geranium. For your giftee, take your pick of eau de parfums from the full collection, or simply pickup the Discovery Set to sample them all.
Tiffany x Elsa Peretti Small Bone Cuff
Who could refuse a chic piece of arm candy this holiday season? And the coolest choice of all, well that goes to Tiffany x Elsa Peretti’s silver bone cuff, of course. Thanks to jewelry brands like Agmes, CompletedWorks, Mejuri, and more, these sculptural cuffs are a minimalists dream that not only have the Vogue-editor seal-of-approval, but the runway one, too, as seen at Saint Laurent, Gucci, and Loewe. Tiffany x Elsa Peretti’s will add just a touch a shimmer and shine to even the most basic of looks. With this little blue box under her tree this year, you just can’t go wrong.
Omnilux Contour Face Red Light Therapy Device
In beauty, I’d consider an LED face masks to be the most thoughtful gift because it can have a lasting, positive effect on overall skin health—making it well worth the investment. If they’re unfamiliar with this kind treatment, it uses different wavelengths of LED light to combat a wide range of skin concerns—from acne and dark spots to wrinkles and inflammation. Of the best, the Omnilux Contour Face rises to the top for its red and near-infrared light that helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, pigmentation, and redness. Plus, it’s made from a flexible silicone that’s comfortable to wear throughout the duration of its 10-minute treatment.
Miu Miu Fleece Down Jacket
Each season, you can always count on Miu Miu for an incredibly chic outerwear option. So far this year, there’ve been sumptuous suede blazers and preppy barn jackets to lust after. For winter, though, this funnel-neck, fleece-lined jacket is making its siren call heard! She can wear it zipped-up with a great jean and pair of boots for a casual off-duty look or with a sleek black legging and sneaker to a weekend workout class. As with any top gift, the stylistic opportunities are endless!
The Row Leather Ankle Boots
You (and anyone on your holiday shopping list for that matter) are going to need a pair of sturdy, lug-sole boots to combat those wintry mixes that are certainly headed our way. A cold-weather classic season-after-season, turn to The Row’s zip-up ankle boots. Not only are they made for stomping around in ease without sacrificing style, but come with the Olsen twin seal-of-approval—i.e. the highest fashion praise one could ever receive.
La Bonne Brosse N.01 The Universal Hair Brush
Everyone seems to be particularly passionate about hair brushing these days. In fact, when I told Vogue’s senior shopping editor Talia Abbas I was adding La Bonne Brosse’s acclaimed hair brush to this edit, she was thrilled. “It’s only a certain person who will be over the moon to receive a hair brush, but if you know who that is—let it be from La Bonne Brosse,” she says. “Too many pretty colors to choose from, I have two (and counting): one regular size I keep at home, one beauty bag-friendly for traveling. Not only is my hair visibly smoother and shinier—a statement I don’t write lightly—whenever I comb my hair with them, they make for a wonderful sensory experience that only a well-crafted brush can provide.”
Loewe Toy Bead-Embellished Pumps
Earlier this season, we crowned ballet pumps as one of fall/winter 2024’s top shoe trends. The perfect hybrid between our trusty flats and a polished heel, Loewe’s floral-detailed, bead-embellished heels first debuted on the brand’s fall runways and have been an instant hit since. With festive season in full swing, this fabulous footwear find will top off any of her looks with a fashion flare.
Flamingo Estate Roma Heirloom Tomato Hand Care Duo
We’re sensing a bit of a hand-care boom. Friends, family, and fellow editors are getting more selective about treating les mains, and where better to turn to than beloved L.A. destination Flamingo Estate for divine-smelling formulas that nourish with the earth’s bounty? The buzzy brand grows its ingredients in its idyllic, sprawling California hillside garden and orchard—resulting in a bevy of home, skin, and foods to delight—from small batch olive oils and honey to display-worthy bar soaps and candles. Its heirloom tomato-scented hand cream and wash are cult-favorite standouts sure to spruce up any powder room—and leave all hands clean, soft, and deliciously fragrant.
Bottega Veneta Jacquard Check Blanket
Shopping for a piece of fashionable home decor for the stylishly inclined on your list? Give them a special something designed by one of their favorite ready-to-wear or accessory brands. In this case, we’ve been particularly obsessed with Matthieu Blazy from Bottega Veneta’s jacquard check cashmere blanket. We can promise its centerpiece-status in any home. Editor’s note: If your loved one was anything like us and completely enthralled by those Bottega Veneta bean bag chairs that acted as seating at the brand’s SS25 show but was ultimately unable to cop one before they sold out, this blanket will just have to do in their place.
Rhode The Pocket Blushes
You might be thinking: a blush is just a blush. But no, something about the new Rhode Pocket Blushes just hits different. Rich in peptides (like the rest of her line) and tamanu oil, Hailey Bieber delivers creamy, pigment-rich formulas that impart a warm burst of color with a single swipe. As the name and adorable packaging suggests, these are destined for on-the-go-use and can be easily blended with your fingers or with whichever brush you have on hand. There are six shades to choose from—Toasted Teddy is a fan-favorite bronze, while Piggy is a classic pink—all featured in this set.
Toteme Draped Fringed Bouclé Jacket
Typically, there are only a few items a season that make that transition from trend to certified wardrobe essential. From Copenhagen-based brand Toteme, this fringed scarf-like jacket is the perfect example. A two-in-one winter special, this chic camel style has been spotted on nearly all of our favorite street style stars, best worn buttoned-up with a go-to blue jean and pair of pointed-toe ankle boots. The fashion enthusiast in your life will be delighted to find this wrapped up under their tree!
The Row India 12.00 Bag
While we wait rather impatiently for The Row’s beloved Margaux tote to come back in stock, its ladylike, top-handle India bag is just as good an option. Large and luxurious, this hero handbag in a rich brown color will be her new everyday essential, from morning commutes to travel days. Feeling festive? Add a few bag charms in the mix for a playful and personalized touch.
Therabody TheraFace Depuffing Wand
Give the gift of firmer, brighter skin with the new Therabody TheraFace wand. The device pairs the best of cold and heat therapies to help anyone achieve their skin goals. The cryotherapy, known to reduce swelling and improve redness, does wonders for my morning facial puffiness—most notably around the eyes and along the cheekbones. Whereas the heat option, improves circulation and skincare product absorption.
Saint Laurent Logo-Embellished Suede Loafers
Fashion sourcer and Vogue contributor, Gab Waller, placed these Saint Laurent logo-embellished suede loafers at the top of her monthly Hot List, and needless to say, they were an instant sell-out. According to Waller, “We’ve all come to know and love the classic Saint Laurent loafer, but with the introduction of chocolate suede this season, it proved to me that this is a must-have.” For the loafer devotee on your list, it doesn’t get much better.
Burberry Check Scarf
There are certain items in a brand’s repertoire that become signature styles for a reason. When one thinks of Burberry, a classic khaki trench coat first comes to mind, but we’d also argue that its fringed scarves are just a timeless. Meant to be worn, loved, and eventually passed down to the next generation, this season’s reversible option is as outstanding a gift as it gets.
Mejuri Pavé Diamond Huggie Hoops
Sometimes the seasons best gifts come in small packages, like this pair of pavé huggie earrings from Mejuri. With prized pieces ringing in at under-$300, Mejuri is a jewelry brand that tops our holiday most-wanted list season after season. This year, of course, is no different.
Dôen x RMS Soirée Set
In collaboration with clean skin-care brand, RMS Beauty, Dôen’s soirée set features a special holiday-ready trio of clean skin-care and makeup essentials all wrapped up in a festive velvet pouch. The best part? It even doubles as an elegant evening bag. Vogue.com’s editor, Chloe Malle considers it a must-have in any party-ready wardrobe, beloved for both its practicality and easy polish.
Agnelle Susan Calf Hair Gloves
There is no denying the leopard-print mania that has taken over both the street style scene and the runways. So far, it’s been spotted (literally) on everything from slip skirts and outerwear to footwear and handbags. This holiday season, help her combat the sub-zero temperatures to come with a pair of leopard-print, calf-hair gloves from Agnelle. They’ll also add a playful pop to any outfit she has in mind, helping fight off any winter-weather wardrobe blues.
Savette Symmetry Pochette Tote
The contemporary handbag brand that belongs in every fashion-girls wardrobe? Savette, of course. And while their slouchy suede totes are a style no-brainer, this Symmetry Pochette top-handle bag is the undeniable standout. With details like glossy leather and an embellished gold clasp, it’s a style that’s versatile as it is stylish—she can wear it with a classic LBD for chic cocktail attire, with a white tee and jeans for a casual off-duty look, or with a tailored blazer and trousers for a twist on modern workwear. Like the aforementioned LBD, the Savette Symmetry Pochette has a similar eternal closet appeal, lasting for seasons to come in her wardrobe.
Fara Homidi Essential Lip Compact
A lip compact, like this one by makeup artist Fara Homidi, is certainly the chicest means to applying lipstick. Instead of delivering the precision of a traditional tube, the palette packaging offers one the freedom and versatility to swipe on the pigment to their liking. For sharp edges, draw it on with a brush, or for more diffused, stain-like color, simply use your fingers. Want added customization? Wear the comfortable matte texture on its own or with the featured nourishing Prime Baume.
Toteme Shearling Hat
The Copenhagen fashion crowd serves as a constant reference for fashion girls: Their style is cool without ever trying too hard, minimalist with a twist—in the simplest of terms: supremely chic. And the brand at the helm of it all? Toteme, of course. Gift a small piece of its magic this holiday season with this snuggly shearling hat. Functional, festive, and fabulous, it’s the ultimate winter style staple.
Smythson Soho Weekly Agenda
It’s almost the new year! Set her up for organized success with Smythson’s weekly agenda in a cherry red, croc-embellished leather. Several Vogue editors rely on its chic pages to keep them right on schedule and up-to-date. After all, at Vogue, being on time is considered late. Not to mention it looks effortlessly elegant on any desk or in any work tote.
Costa Brazil Vela Jungle Candle
Unsure what to gift that special someone? A tasteful candle is always a good idea. And fortunately, Costa Brazil makes one sure to impress even the chicest giftee. Though not the same scent as its sought-after eau de parfum (Aroma is one of my most-complimented scents), Vela Jungle is equally as transportive. Notes of white and black Breu resin, wild jungle flora, cypress root, and Brazilian vetiver places one straight into the Amazonian forest for a cozy, long-lasting scent sure to warm up any home.
Bottega Veneta Drop Earrings
Bottega Veneta’s Drop earrings belong on every fashion enthusiast’s wish list—that is if they don’t already have them. In a slight upgrade to the signature gold style, this hibiscus-colored option just dropped and are an instant add-to-cart. They’ll add a subtle pop of color to any all-white winter wardrobe or any minimalist’s outfit for that matter. Shop quick before they’re bound to sell out!
Dries Van Noten Metallic Sneakers
Each year, there seems to be a rebirth of some classic sneaker style that ultimately ends up gaining mass traction and becoming the It shoe of the season. Thanks to brands like Dries Van Noten, The Row, and Miu Miu x New Balance, retro sneakers are a bonafide thing. And while we know it can be hard to replace your trusty Adidas Sambas, this metallic style, below, from Dries Van Noten is worth self-gift. Wear yours (because yes, you should also treat yourself to a top gift) à la Vogue’s fashion market and collaborations director, Willow Lindley, with a festive Fair Isle sweater and cool pair of corduroys.
Merit Retrospect L’Extrait de Parfum
If Merit’s makeup and skin-care products reimagine how the modern woman does her glam, its first perfume does the same with fragrance. To do so, the brand tapped French perfumer Fanny Bal, who after 200 iterations landed on Retrospect L’Extrait de Parfum. It has a vintage feel and the scent sort of changes with you throughout the day. An initial spray will reveal a more clean, floral touch via pear, rose, and ambrette, transforming into a more sultry, skin-like scent by nightfall—think vanilla, musk, moss, and jasmine.
Augustinus Bader The Skin Infusion
Any skin-care lover will always appreciate an Augustinus Bader gift. Instead of its Rich Cream (which you probably gifted them last year), consider its latest innovation: The Skin Infusion. Think of it as a four-week program for improved skin resiliency. Its TFC8 peptide complexion pairs with a vitamin D activator, vitamin B5, zinc PCA, and evening primrose oil to improve skin texture, tone, luminousity, and firmness over time. The texture is quite gentle, similar to a lightweight, milky cream so it’s best used after any face serum; and yes, you can even use it with retinol.
Olivia Von Halle Yves Silk-Satin Pajamas
Remember that luxury pair of pajamas we told you to wear with Prada’s suede and shearling slippers? This silk-satin burgundy set from Olivia Von Halle are the only ones to choose. With a sumptuous look and feel, she’ll feel as chic as she does comfortable.
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit
A festive palette is always a delightful gift that remains useful year after year. It’s true—you can never have too many! The Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit is a classic choice, available in five festive limited-edition designs—like the lotus flower motif here—and six different powder pigments to choose from for highlighting, blushing, and contouring.
