Gift Like A Fashion Editor With These Holiday Picks

Between our family, best friends and colleagues, our gift list always incorporates a multitude of lovely ladies. Unlike the guys on our list, we find buying for these women far easier since we covet a lot of the same things—specifically luxurious, practical and versatile items. Where better to find such gifts than Splendid, one of our favorite destinations for everything from plush cashmere to timeless basics? We tapped our editorial team to share what they’ll be buying for their loved ones this season. Whether you’re shopping for your mother, sister, best friend or coworker we guarantee this will inspire you (and relieve a lot of gift-giving anxiety in the process)!

Gifts For The Ladies

"I know my best friend will wear the heck out of this high-neck, long-sleeve dress. It's comfortable and cozy, yet the fitted silhouette and cool shoulder cut-outs make it a hero piece for wintry daytime festivities or a night out." —Amy Lee, Associate Fashion Editor

"I'm planning to refresh my sister's footwear collection. These colorful, lace-up flats are a great update to her everyday arsenal and can be dressed up for evening with fun tights. She'll also love a pair of these versatile (and comfortable) booties because they look great with everything." —Samantha McDonald, News Editor

"My mum adores elevated basics which is why this luxurious cashmere pullover is a no-brainer. My little sister could use a little whimsy in her polished wardrobe so this delicate star-print blouse and lace-back sweater will strike the perfect balance." —Nicky Deam, Editorial Director

"My coworker has been jet-setting around the world from Barcelona to Hawaii to Mexico City. This leather and suede backpack is perfect because it's big enough to store her laptop and daily essentials while still embodying her fashion-forward style. Not to mention the bright pop of color is so fun." —Erin Nicole, Lifestyle Editor

"I'm planning to buy my mom this knit vest with a detachable faux-fur collar because she is always in need of something easy to elevate her favorite jeans. Plus, she lives in Arizona where cold weather accessories are rarely necessary. This layer is festive without being overly warm but can be layered under a coat when she travels to colder climates." —Laura Lajiness, Fashion Editor

"My cousin just had a baby and relies heavily upon pieces that are comfortable yet stylish. These green knit leggings are an easy way for her to inject color into her look, while the mid-rise blue and grey skinnies are great on days she needs a little more structure." —Kristi Mikesky, Managing Editor
