One of the top fashion accessory trends of the season are bracelets and especially leather cuffs, see my Holiday Gift Guide of Fashion Bracelets for them – and here are some other choices for fashionistas (like you).
Hand-Knit Sweater/ Long Eyelet Hoodie ($179) by Mayu is made of 100% alpaca in Peru. I love alpaca, so soft! Mayu is a member of the Fair Trade Federation, and by purchasing this beautiful hoodie, you know that you are supporting a Peruvian community. The hoodie comes also in red among other colors and please check out Shop Mayu for other beautiful handmade alpaca sweaters and accessories.
Herringbone peacoat at Talbots ($249) is a classic in fashion colors. I have it in yellow, and absolutely love it. It dresses up a jeans & sweater outfit, or brings color to a more formal business look. Talbots’ high quality makes this peacoat to last, especially if you get it in timeless color like black or grey.
Lola by Marc Jacobs gift set ($75) is one of the most popular fragrances, sure to please a fashionista. Lola is a floral and sexy scent, feminine, but fresh. The 110 dollar value gift set comes with 1.7 oz Eau de Parfum Spray and 5 oz Sensual Body Lotion.
If you are looking for sexy, high quality lingerie that doesn’t cost a fortune, please forget about Victoria’s Secret. Go to an actual lingerie shop instead, or at least to high end department stores with better selections. You will get bras that actually fit for real women. I recommend the Freya Polyanna ($60) at Nordstrom.
Valencia boot by Farylrobin ($285) dresses up any outfit. The trendy ankle boot style with a twist for the fashionista, who has already seen it all. Farylrobin shoes are unique and the high quality leather makes them luxurious.
The silk-cotton ruffle top ($49.99) by Rugby is a fashion must-have. Silky ruffles go perfectly under a boyfriend blazer during the winter time, and bare the shoulders for parties and warmer weather. It’s luxurious fashion gift that doesn’t cost a fortune.
Alex Stitched Patent Large Tote by Coach ($398) is their signature Op Art pattern, high quality patent, roomy for all daily essentials. I like the white, I think the white is new black in handbags, it goes with everything and yet it’s not as safe choice as classic black – but this tote comes in variety of colors, including black.
Coach also has stylish gloves for winter fashionista, and their leather gloves would make a luxurious gift. I however found much more reasonably priced leather gloves from Nordstrom – their embroidered cuff leather gloves run for under 50 bucks, and come in different colors.
Suede studded skull clutch by Rugby ($59.99) is a skulltastic gift for fashionista. The skull motive still keeps being trendy all year round, and this clutch will bring a little rock’n'roll or punk to any outfit. Great to mix with the classic little black dress as a fun accessory, or perfect to dress up a jean & boots outfit for.
