For Whom/What:

Budget:

$7000

Extra Details:

What kind of fashion items are on your holiday wishlist this year? I have been gifting something special to myself because my birthday is in December, so it's like a birthday/Christmas gift combo. I usually get a designer handbag, but now I have a few staples I carry on rotation, I'm ready to venture out. I'm thinking about getting these mules from Prada. It can be one big item or several inexpensive but quality items.

If I had to pick just one fashion item right now, I’d go for the Hermès Kelly Belt ($1,125). It’s such a versatile, timeless piece that instantly elevates any outfit—whether you’re cinching a blazer, styling it with a dress, or just wearing it with jeans. The belt has that signature Hermès elegance without being over-the-top. If you’re looking for a true statement piece that’s both stylish and functional, I think this is it.

If you’re looking for a luxury self-gift that’s modern, effortlessly chic, and under $7K, the Messika So Move Pavé White Gold Diamond Necklace is a solid pick. It’s got that bold-yet-refined aesthetic with the signature Move diamond design, but in a sleeker, more contemporary shape. 

The full pavé setting adds just the right amount of subtle sparkle without being over-the-top, making it perfect for everyday wear or layering with other pieces. And oh, the sparkly white gold keeps it timeless and versatile. If you want a piece that feels special but still wearable, this one definitely delivers.

The idea of combining a birthday and holiday gift into one special purchase is such a lovely tradition, especially when it’s something luxurious and meaningful. Those Prada mules sound like a chic and stylish choice to venture into something new. They're timeless yet statement-making—a great blend of practicality and flair.

As for other holiday wishlist ideas, you might consider:

  1. Luxury Outerwear: A classic coat from Max Mara or a timeless trench from Burberry could be an investment piece you’ll reach for every winter. I thought the Teddy Bear Coat was a phase, but it seems like it's here to stay. 
  2. Fine Jewelry: Perhaps a Cartier watch or a statement ring from Chanel to add a touch of sparkle to your collection.
  3. Statement Footwear: If not the mules, how about a pair of iconic pumps from Christian Louboutin?
