Gift Guide: For the Fashionista Under $250

Dec 7, 2010

I love giving gifts, but the one gift that I never give another woman is clothing.  So if clothes are off the table, what for I buy for the fashionistas on my Christmas list?  Accessories.  After all, having great accessories is the key to making a good outfit a stunning outfit.

Today, CHS is featuring three fashionista gift guides loaded with awesome accessories.  Each gift guide reflects a different price point: under $250, under $150 and under $50.  But no matter the retail price, every gift is fabulous!

1.  Marc by Marc Jacobs Ozzie Crossbody (Saks, $228)

What’s great about this bag is that you can carry it to a cocktail event or pair it with jeans and layers for a casual weekend look.  And I think that the neutral mushroom color mixed with the gold chain really makes a statement. 

2.  DvF Lace and Leather Gloves (Matches, $175) 

I love opera length gloves, but I’d gladly trade mine in for these.  Wear them with your basic black winter coat to give your cold weather style quotient a boost.

3.  McQueen Rose and Silk Thorns Scarf (Harvey Nichols, $235)

If you have an Alexander McQueen fan on you holiday list, a scarf is a great way to give them a designer piece at a fraction of the price.  And this scarf, with its bright colors, is definitely going to give your wardrobe a pick me up.

4.  Lee Angel Glass and Pearl Bracelet ($155)

I saved this bracelet for last because it is my favorite piece of the day.  It mixes paper chain black metal with sparkly crystals and delicate pearls to create a piece that is truly unique.  All the wow of expensive jewelry for a lot less coin.

Saw It On Social: Rooted

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]
