10 of the Best Christmas Gift Ideas for Women

If her wardrobe is as bold and joyful as she is, you need a gift to match her vibe. Enter Bvlgari – a brand that will forever be defined by its indomitable sense of glamour. The Serpenti Forever bag comes in a variety of sparkling iterations, each one painstakingly decorated with hand-applied crystals. Talk about a conversation starter.

Ok, so she has it all – but does she have a Piaget Sixtie? Unveiled at Watches and Wonders Geneva earlier this year, the elegant timepiece takes its inspiration from the bold geometry of Piaget’s mid-century heyday – specifically the 21st Century Collection, which eschewed traditional shapes for more unconventional silhouettes. It's a piece of design history for her to wear every day.

It’s impossible not to be the centre of attention when you’re holding a Judith Leiber bag – and this fabulous espresso martini number deserves to be worn by someone that will do it justice on the party circuit. Encrusted with crystals from top to bottom – latte art included – this piece is the ideal Christmas gift for the most vivacious social butterfly you know.

Sometimes the simplest designs make the strongest impact. Minimal – but no less chic – these Bvlgari Tubogas hoop earrings make the case for ‘less is more’. Bearing the same grooved design that has been a house signature since the 1940s, the understated pair is a fine-jewellery staple she’ll wear again and again. Diamonds may be forever, but sometimes unadorned gold will more than do.

When choosing a gift for your loved one, only the very best will do. Contemporary yet timeless; glamorous yet understated, the Chopard Ice Cube ring is a safe bet. Featuring 0.11 carats of square diamonds set in 18-karat white gold, this geometric take on the eternity ring is a beautiful way to showcase your ongoing devotion – guaranteed to grant you a bravo on the big morning.

Every family or friendship group needs a host – and with hosting duties often comes an abundance of gifts. Namely, flowers. Make sure she always has a vessel to display them in with this Baccarat Octogone vase. Cleverly faceted to reflect the shapes and colours of the blooms placed inside, the crystal creation is a true work of art – and an ideal Christmas gift for those who take pride in their home.

She’s a confident, creative, independent thinker – and probably already a fan of Jonathan Anderson’s Loewe. So why not treat her to a future fashion heirloom in the form of the sculptural Toy pumps, characterised by their petal-shaped toe and pooling lacquered heel in blown-up Barbie proportions? This is a pair of shoes that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Much like her.

Synonymous with quiet luxury, Swedish label Toteme makes pieces that appeal to both the style-conscious and those who favour classic design over ephemeral trends. This black leather T-Lock bag strikes the perfect balance between structured and slouchy, made in a shape and size guaranteed to stand the test of time. And what could be more chic than that?

The fashion world’s Alaïa obsession sees no signs of abating – so why not indulge her with one of the season’s trending bags this Christmas? With its of-the-moment burgundy shade and innovative leather-wrapped hinge fastening, this Le Click East West shoulder bag will win you instant brownie points with any connoisseurs of design.

Brunello Cucinelli’s heels will elevate all kinds of outfits, whether worn with jeans, party dresses or her sharpest officewear. They’ve been expertly crafted in Italy from ultra-soft nappa leather, giving them a rich, even colour, and are embellished with sparkling monili embroidery on the heel. Worn with the rest of her wardrobe, they’ll ensure all eyes are on her.
