‘Tis the season. A time for loved ones, celebration, reflection and good food, as well as the season of gifting.
It can be overwhelming thinking of ideas for the perfect gift, so that’s where the GRAZIA team has you covered. From the underground if-you-know-you-know brands, to the pieces on everyone’s radar, there’s something for everyone. But best of all, this gift guide is GRAZIA-approved.
An Edgy Sneaker
Whether she’s a sneaker head or simply a streetstyle lover, these sneaker collabs have been on our radar for a while. While the Adidas Sambas have been climbing the trend ladder for the entire year, this collaboration edition is an easy way to add an effortless cool vibe to your simple laid-back fits.
The Silver Purse
The rise of metallics has been a well documented trend, but so has the micro purse takeover. Coperni’s silver Mini Swipe Tote ticks both, with its sleekly futuristic vibe and unique circular shape and a hard exterior, the bag is effortlessly cool.
A Bold Red Touch
If there was a colour that seems to have the fashion discourse at a halt, it would be a vibrant, lively red. This Bil Arabi gold ring delivers that boldness while enwrapping it in a gold layer of elegance. With “Love” written in Arabic lettering, it’s the perfect everyday ring.
Trail of sweetness
While Kayali perfumes are known to leave a stream of enticing sweetness following your footsteps, their Eden Sparkling Lychee perfume reimagines it. With a fruity floral body, this intoxicating scent blends sparkling lychee, candied violets and a tangy blackcurrant. Cheerfully sweet and fruity, this fragrance radiates confidence and temptation.
