For the creative spirits who prefer to make a bold statement. They love color, art, and the unusual, and are happily content to venture off from the norm. They’re drawn to craftsmanship, unique provenance, and pieces with a story behind them. Their style is personal, never predictable, and always evolving.
For someone who loves saturated color and bold graphic patterns, these wool blankets make exceptional gifts. The Finnish-made Punos blanket with its abstract vertical and horizontal stripes creating a weave-like motif suits the design lover (more colors available and on sale). The Schoolhouse x Pendleton collaboration produced this striking blanket for anyone building a collected home – comes in two other colors. Gift the fluffy handmade Mysig Throw to someone who appreciates a luxurious addition to the bed or sofa, or as a singular pop of color tossed over a chair (available in seven other colors).
Pair any of those blankets with bold red leather-wrapped Cubist bookends (available as a single or doubles), lacquered nesting trays for someone who loves organizational beauty, a chic yellow Hermes tray for the entertainer, or a book-like lacquered Backgammon Set. The citrus slice place card holders are playful, charming and perfect for anyone who loves to set a creative table.
For the friend who likes to try the latest in skincare, consider the InstaFacial Collection from Dr. Diamond’s Metacine as an introduction. The Holiday Gift Sets with complimentary gift wrapping are a splurge but would be appreciated by anyone already devoted to the brand. I personally LOVE the InstaFacial Plasma and Bioactive Moisturizer and use them with the the Coleman Compound. It has a cult following for a good reason. I’ve been using it for a few months and can see what all the fuss is about. Brown spots are finally fading away.
Not all sleep masks are alike. Skip average options and gift the best with a padded silk Drowsy mask in a fabulous color for a friend who values quality sleep or travels frequently. It’s a game changer for flights, completely blocking out light while the wide band keeps ear plugs in place. Hair accessories are having a moment, and the silver French Hair Pin turns an everyday essential into an object of beauty. Same goes for this vanity-worthy lacquered hair brush.
For the person who displays their creative spirit through their wardrobe and gravitates towards bold colors without fear. Gift a statement piece like the chartreuse Staud coat or a Rixo faux leopard for someone who leads with confidence. A bright La Ligne sweater adds a pop of optimism to anyone’s everyday wardrobe. If they’re carrying a designer bag, gift one in an exclusive color or fabrication – Bottega Veneta Andiamo in blue shearling or Toteme T-Lock in red patent leather, or a Loewe cardholder in an unexpected color. Their taste in jewelry is playful, unexpected and matches their personality – be it a python inspired bracelet, a rose gold ring covered in blue topaz, or a simple stone pendant on cord for someone who prefers unique over conventional.
