This Holiday season, we present to you, dear reader, a curated list of the best gifts from the shops, designers, and brands you (and we!) love the most.
Never showing up empty-handed is one thing, but showing up with a hamper full of Christmas joy, a handmade paper vase that moonlights as a piece of surrealist art, or stress-melting aromatic luxury teas in hand, means a return invitation is guaranteed. Here’s a one-stop guide to gifting for the hostess of those exciting Christmas parties you’ll be attending all this month.
Although, gifts can be a last-minute obligation, the more thoughtful the gift, the less likely it is to be re-gifted or forgotten, locked away in their cupboard of non-useful gifts. After all, you want to see that three-tier cupcake server by Good Earth coming out for a cameo at the next high-tea at their home. Not to mention, well-deserved credit and compliments directed at you for finding “the loveliest present”.
