In just a few short weeks, the season of holiday gift-giving will arrive, so I’m taking it upon myself to drop some hints about exactly which items are on the top of my list right now. In short, it’s brimming with everything from luxe investment items to everyday basics that I need to replenish in my wardrobe and everything in between.
The list starts out with Chanel’s cool sneakers that I know would quickly become an off-duty essential. Can you imagine anything cooler to wear on the weekend? I certainly can’t. It also includes elevated staples like cashmere sweatpants that are destined for an airport outfit, basic tops to pair with denim, and a winter coat so perfect it has been sitting in my shopping cart for weeks. Ahead, see my editor-approved holiday gift picks and perhaps shop them for yourself.
Leave it to Chanel to design the coolest sneakers ever.
I've been needing a long, tailored coat and finally spotted the perfect version.
This bag strikes the perfect balance of vintage and modern.
Can you imagine anything more comfortable (or more stylish) to travel in than cashmere pants?
I own this turtleneck in black, and it's one of the most loved pieces in my closet (I have receipts). Now I need it in white.
Honestly, what could possibly be chicer than these LV heels?
These sunglasses from Prada are everywhere on the street style scene and are suddenly a silhouette I need in my closet.
I have owned these for years, and they're the first thing I slip on when I get home. They're well loved, though, and now I need a fresh replacement pair.
The perfect thing for my apartment.
A cool, subtle take on logo heels.
I won't stop talking about cardigans and just spotted a great affordable style.
Hiking boots are the shoe style I can't quit, and I want to pack these for my next trip to NYC.
You can never own too many fresh white tees, and I love the cut of this crewneck style.
Yes, I already own plenty of denim, but this style from Khaite feels so elevated. I can't get over the button detail.
