Ann Demeulemeester for Serax Set-of-Four Grace 20 Cl Tumbler

Assouline Miami Beach Book
Bright, vibrant, and full of spectacular art-deco architecture, this book is essentially a front-row seat on Ocean Ave. full of bronzed bodies, Rollerbladers, and everything else this wonderful warm-weather metropolis brings us. It’s the perfect accoutrement to any coffee-table book collection.

Even intimate gatherings or Zoom meetings can serve as excuses to experiment with new luxe makeup! Luckily, Dior’s holiday packaging couldn’t be more perfect for your beauty-obsessed friends. Palettes like this are easy to wrap and gift to anyone who deserves color and joy this year.
Alkeme 1" Diamond Cut Hoop Earrings
I can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t love 14 k solid gold hoops. These authentic gold vintage-inspired diamond-cut gold earrings are the ideal present for any style minimalist. But they’re also perfect for anyone who accessorizes to feel a bit glam...and who doesn’t? This pair might have to double as a self-gift, too.

Fable The Serving Bowl
My family is full of entertainers—you know, dinner-parties-every-weekend kind of people. Serving platters and bowls are always top of mind but can be pretty pricey—but Fable has an amazing collection of serving bowls at an affordable price. This serving bowl is beautifully crafted and adds warmth to any table setting.

Local Eclectic Solid Gold Textured Diamond Band
Yes, gold and diamonds under $100 is totally possible! Nine-karat gold is a great, affordable option if you’re in the market for some new fine jewelry, as it has a lower percentage of gold (9 percent) as compared to 14 k or 18 k (which have 14 and 18 percent, respectively). But it’s actually less soft and more durable compared to its more expensive cousins (as long as the other metals it’s combined with are a harder alloy, like silver or copper). All that is to say that this beautiful, minimalist gold-and-diamond band makes a terrific gift for those fashion-forward friends and family members.
Andrej Urem Milk Sculptural Candle
2020 has been the year of the status candle, and nothing beats this sculptural dream by Andrej Urem. It makes a great addition to any coffee table or shelf setting, whether you burn it or not, and will look right at home among your giftee’s preexisting candle collection.
Hermès Rouge Hermès Satin Lipstick in Rose Zinzolin
Nothing screams luxury like a little orange Hermès box, which is completely doable for under $100 with the brand’s line of lipsticks. Aside from the packaging (which I highly recommend keeping as decor around your home), the formula is as buttery-soft as you can get out of a lip product, making it a must for any beauty lover. If you really want to up the ante (and the budget), you can even splurge for the leather lipstick case to carry your favorite shade.

Luxe Dominoes “La Pinta” Luxe Card Deck
In my opinion, nothing says “luxe” more than a custom set of playing cards. It’s time to upgrade that tattered set to this very chic option from Luxe Dominos. Its ultra-modern design is handcrafted from a single piece of acrylic, and it comes in an array of colors—I can’t help but be drawn to the neon green.
Elemis Pro-collagen Rose Cleansing Balm
Give the gift of spa-like luxury accessible from the comfort of your own bathroom. I am fully addicted to the Elemis cleansing balm, and this rose-scented one feels over-the-top luxurious. A well-worth-it splurge for any beauty addict in your life (pro tip: I like to use mine while sitting in front of a facial steamer to really pretend I’m in the spa!).
Maison Balzac J’ai Soif Carafe & Glass
Take your nightstand water-glass game to the next level with this beautiful carafe and glass. The piece is inspired by the traditional drinkware sets in France that were displayed on a bedside table at night. What could be more luxe than that?

Max ID NY Ghost Tumbler
Fun glassware is something I don’t often buy for myself—which is why it’s the perfect gift. These sculptural tumblers are so cool they’ve earned a spot atop the bar cart instead of nestled in a crowded cupboard.
Rothko by Jacob Baal-Teshuva
Coffee-table books are always a win in my book (please excuse the play on words). At only $15 a pop, this artist series is a super-elevated item that won’t break the bank. Especially now that museums are off the table, this gives you a glimpse into the art-y world from your own home.
Montserrat Las Tres Perlas Choker
This dainty gold-and-pearl necklace looks like it costs a lot more than it actually does. The choker sits perfectly on your collarbones and works with an array of necklines—perfect for your next holiday ensemble.
