Giving gifts is a continuum: On the one end you have accessible little tokens of affection, which are touching and memorable in their own way. On the other end are the big moments, the ultra-special gifts that’ll make her entire year (or even years). These presents are investment pieces that often require months of careful thought and research. Having the desire to give something heart-stopping is half the battle. But doing the legwork to actually find it can be tough. If you’re in need of some spectacular ideas, first, we get it, it’s been a busy year. And second, we’re here for you.
Whether the person you’re hoping to delight is the type to love sparkly heels meant for nights out or a cozy coat that feels like wearing a stylish blanket, we have you covered. Is she more into a classic aesthetic? Consider a quiet, streamlined handbag or a forever-chic white watch, both of which look amazing now and will be just as chic for years to come. Read on to see our favorite showstopping gifts, all of which are destined to make her year.
Rado Captain Cook High-Tech Ceramic Bai Yu Limited Edition
For the mom, sister, friend, or partner with carefully curated aesthetic, this sleek watch is sure to be something she’ll cherish for years. It’s made of ceramic and mother of pearl, but is particularly special because it’s truly limited edition. Simple but stunning, it’s luxurious worn alone or with a stack of gold jewelry.
If she loves simple, elegant jewelry, it’s safe to assume she’d also appreciate an equally sophisticated yet unassuming handbag like this one from The Row. With its top handle and gold hardware, the classic silhouette will look equally as stunning ten years from now as it does today.
Yes, this is the one a certain celeb wore with a matching cashmere bra, causing the internet to lose their minds. But besides being buzzy, it’s a luxuriously soft and hefty piece that’ll make your own in-house influencer feel like she’s swaddled in clouds.
How do you say no to sparkly pink satin heels that look equally as good with jeans as with a black tie gown? You don’t. They’re sure to be one of the most standout pieces in her closet.
Tied around a handbag, worn on the neck, or reimagined as a top if she’s feeling daring, this bright silk scarf will be one the most versatile pieces in her closet.
The biggest shoe trend of the moment is loafers. This stacked heel pair offers height without sacrificing comfort and would look especially good with a pleated skirt or baggy trousers.
Year in, year out, Max Mara’s teddy coat remains on top of everyone’s wish list and for good reason—not only is it super soft and warm, but it adds a textural layer to any outfit, making it the perfect finishing touch.
With oversized pearls and diamond studded hoops, these striking earrings are a memorable gift that’ll dress up everything from t-shirts to slip dresses before being passed on to future generations someday.
