In the pursuit of completing our gift lists for the 2023 holiday season, we often find ourselves in need of a nudge, a subtle suggestion, or a touch of guidance.

 

If you’re looking for ultra-luxury gift ideas to unwrap, we’ve got you. We reached out to our team of experts to provide some inspiration, and their gift recommendations this year are nothing short of amazing. From luxury stocking stuffers under $500 and deal-worthy designer bags to timeless timepieces, small box surprises, and so much more. Read on to uncover a treasure trove of gift picks for every budget and every person on your list. 

Luxury Gifts Under $500

The impact of a gift extends far beyond, even when it comes to smaller presents. In the realm of ultra-luxury, we’re not just filling stockings for the sake of it; we’re investing in gifts that hold significance. When it comes down to it, quality over quantity always wins.

Louis Vuitton and Bottega Veneta are some top brands to look to when you are searching for luxury gifts for that handbag lover in your life – not to mention, for a steal.

Some of the best gifts are the ones you wouldn’t buy yourself – like a teeny tiny bag. The Mini Sac HL Speedy is so playful, cute, and timeless – a total statement piece! With the recent resurgence of the Speedy, we know this style is here to stay. Plus, the limited edition multicolor monogram – created by Japanese pop artist Takashi Murakami – makes this version extra special.”

The Mini Jodie has become a Bottega Veneta staple, and I love this new interpretation in suede. Perfect for fall and winter, it’s the perfect gift for the holidays because it’s a neutral color, and understated elegance can be worked into anyone’s wardrobe. Not to mention, anything Bottega Veneta oozes quiet luxury, which is a lifestyle that’s here to stay.”

“Do you not know the size of the ring or bracelet to buy? Earrings are a great way to bypass that question and get something you know will fit. But it’s important to know if the person receiving this gift has their ears pierced or is willing to do so! Personally, I love a classic stud, like these from Van Cleef and Arpels. Vintage Alhambra will typically offer a clip-back earring with a removable post, so if you’re unsure, this may be the best option.”

“I love what newer designers are bringing to the market, relative to the iconic Maisons that are over a hundred years old. Brands like Suzanne Kalan, Jennifer Meyer, Messika, Anita K, and Foundrae offer youthful designs with playful stone settings. Since they’re newer, sometimes they’re slightly more affordable than other brands. I share these options with a caveat: since they’re newer, we don’t always have much in stock, so when you find one, buy it! The most important thing? If a design catches your eye and makes you think of someone, you should get it.
