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. […]

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
