The holiday season is a time of sharing love, joy, and compassion. It’s a time to show appreciation for those around you. I hope that you find this “Little Luxuries Set” to be helpful in spoiling your loved ones this year!
Hilo! Welcome to Day 3 of our 25 days of #Giftmas series! I am so excited to share today’s set with you. We will explore some of my picks for the ‘little luxuries’ to purchase for your love ones this gifting season. If you haven’t already read Day 1 and Day 2, please find them linked.
As you contemplate on what to purchase for presents this year, I personally think that little luxuries are a great option. A lot of our family members probably enjoy browsing for luxury items, but will hardly pull the trigger because there are other items that are of a higher priority. A good example of this is when a new mama decides to buy a stroller for their baby instead of purchasing a practical handbag for themselves.
This post will focus on little luxuries that are just under $1000. The pieces will be less trendy just so it can stand the test of time. If this post goes well, then lower or higher budgets will be to come! So make sure you share this with everyone! Thanks! 😊
Product #1
Tiffany Paloma Olive Leaf Pendant $875
Kicking it off strong with a classic brand, Tiffany & Co. This fashion house curates a lot of timeless yet unique pieces. The brand is more synonymous for their sterling silver pieces, but their 18 karat gold pieces go for reasonable prices as well
This olive leaf pendant has a very dainty design with a hint of diamond sparkle. It is currently available in both Rose Gold and Gold.
Product #2
David Yurman Madison Bracelet $950
Next up is a piece from David Yurman, this jewelry house also has really unique designs for pieces. However, I chose a product that is more simple and not particularly flashy for the branding. Most people will know the Albion and the Chatelaine range, but may not know that Yurman also makes pieces that are less signature and just as timeless.
This Madison Bracelet comes in three sizes, Small, Medium and Large.
Product #3
Saint Laurent Puffer Clutch $945
Out of all the picks, this piece from Saint Laurent is probably the ‘trendiest’ of them all. With all the hype around the Chanel 19, Coach Pillow Tabby, Saint Laurent‘s puffer bag, these styles are seen all over social media.
As a clutch style, this type of bag will be less out of date when it becomes less trendy. It’s a very versatile piece since it can be a ‘grab and go’ or dressed up for date nights. For under $1000, it would be worth it to see if the after market will produce a bag organizer where a chain can be clipped onto the sides to use this as an actual bag.
This puffer clutch comes in many colors, but the classic lambskin version that don’t have a metallic finish are the only ones that will fit within the cost parameters of this post.
It is important to note that the clutch is accompanied by a black embossed leather card holder when purchased from the Saint Laurent website. Other online retailers do not seem to advertise this in their descriptions, so please check your packages prior to wrapping the present for gifting.
Product #4
Valentino Rockstud Leather Crossbody Bag $950
Last, but definitely not least is this Valentino Garavani piece. For this price range, it is getting increasingly harder to find high-end luxury brands supplying the market with substantial bags. In the handbag world, the size of this piece would be categorized as a “Wallet on a Chain” just based upon what it can fit.
This piece features a top handle as well as a crossbody strap. These two options allow for versatility of daytime and nighttime use. Although the bag seems to have a very simple design; Valentino did add studs to spice up the accessory and make it theirs. The rock-studs are a Valentino signature, allowing the bag to remain timeless, minimalistic, but still unique.
