Fashion is more than just clothes. Whether you’re dressing for the office or going out for the night, it’s an extension of your personality. If you’re looking for a gift that will be a hit with the fashion set, here are a few suggestions.
In 2014, a lot of the buzz was centered around the new wave of fashion and fashion accessories. This includes things like the new crop of ballet flats and the ubiquitous face mask. These items are great for their convenience and style.
But it’s not just the latest trends that have garnered media attention. In fact, some of the most stylish and fashionable people are actually wearing things from the distant past. You’re not likely to catch someone wearing a dystopian jumpsuit, but you’ll probably catch them sporting a pearl necklace or a striped sweater.
Of course, this does not mean you need to spend a small fortune on a holiday gift. The key is to get something that is functional, on-trend and fun. There are a ton of options out there to choose from.
One of the more interesting gift ideas is a good pair of sunglasses. You can go big or go home with an oversized pair from brands such as Jimmy Fairly, JW Pei and Tory Burch. For the ultimate in comfort and protection, try a waxed cotton shell for a more fashion-forward feel.
A pair of oval-shaped sunglasses is a good choice if you’re trying to look cool in the snow. They’re also great for keeping the sun out of your eyes.
Similarly, an eye-catching bag can make a statement. A beaded purse or handbag can be a standout, especially if you’re going for the glitz and glamour look. Another great idea is a custom-made, hand-crafted bag. Check out the website of New York City-based Susan Alexandra to see if there’s something that speaks to you.
The same goes for a well-crafted pair of headphones. Whether you’re looking for a gift for the music enthusiast or simply need a new ear bud for your own personal playlist, you can’t go wrong.
Other options are a cute set of pajamas. Jennifer Lawrence has been spotted in a pair of Sleeper PJs, but there are plenty of cult favorites on the market.
While this might not be the best Christmas present you can give your friend, it’s sure to be the most appreciated. Plus, you can personalize the gift by telling your loved one what they’re supposed to be reading or what the oh-so-cute teddy bear is. Getting a friend or family member a snazzy new outfit is always a good idea, but a little gifting goes a long way.
Finally, the most important piece of clothing for the winter months is something warm and cozy. AllSaint’s brolly is a swoon-worthy option, made from cashmere and wool blend. It also comes in a tiger-tan color.
Whether you’re looking to buy a Christmas gift for your favorite fashionista or just want to treat yourself, there are a ton of good ideas to keep you on the right track.
