I'm an Unabashed Lover of Luxury—37 Gifts I Immediately Oohed Over

There are good gifts, and then there are great gifts. Some thoughtfulness and a little bit of taste can go a long way in becoming a great gift giver, but a healthy cash flow surely helps too. If money is no object this holiday season, you'll want to keep close tabs on the list below.  Because we're all for keeping the element of surprise, here's a suggestion: Skip the gift cards and perusing the wish list this year, and go for gifts that really speak to their personality. And if in doubt, a wrist full of shimmering gold or a trendy Prada bag will never not elicit a wide smile. Whether it's for the person who has everything or for the picky person with highly discerning taste, you'll find something here that's sure to delight. Even with a more modest budget, I've included a few stunning under-$150 gifts that don't skimp on luxury. 
Here's a universal truth: Everyone gets cold during the winter. The easiest way to keep warm? Invest in a pair of cozy socks. 
A lot of elaborate candles exist, but Loewe's new collection of beautifully scented (and pretty!) candles are really sure to set an impression.
While fine jewelry never goes out of style, Van Cleef's famed Alhambra pieces have surged in popularity among the fashion crowd recently.
Rihanna also has this hat—that's all the persuasion needed.
On the chance you know their cup size, please buy this gorgeous lace bra.
Here's a cool note to mention for this gift: The Brooklyn-based designer recently won the CFDA American Emerging Designer of the Year Award.
Shearling is a huge trend this year. Also a plus: These are on sale.
A splurge by far, but certainly worth it.
The It bag of 2020 is still one of the coolest gifts around.
With a dash of trendy and a dash of utility, there are so many ways anyone can style these boots.
When in doubt, a unique candle is surely the way to go. 
Everyone I know is obsessed with this top.
Yes, the bags are amazing, but don't overlook Gucci's quirky homeware line.
The follow-up to Tom Ford's 001 book—which virtually everyone I know owns— 002 covers the American designer's post-Gucci years as he establishes his own namesake brand.
The vibrant color really makes this a standout.
My friend just moved into her first big-girl apartment, and I've already bought these for her.
I can't think of anything chicer.
Streetwear fans will love this new release from the highly anticipated collaboration between Wales Bonner and Adidas.
If you're looking for a stunning piece that's unexpected, Brooklyn-based fine-jewelry designer Bernard James is one to watch.
Boring throw blankets are so 2020.
These heels manage to sell out almost everywhere they're sold, which seems like the best endorsement.
Simply breathtaking.
This Kartell stool slash side table will never not be cool.
When everything else seems obvious, a gift from an emerging designer is a rather cool way to show off your fashion prowess.
If you want to shock and awe, gift this bag.
Keep them cozy all season long.
Artist Sabine Marcelis has a cult following, so I'm sure any design lover will fall for this.
For the cool, artsy person, cool Marshmellow wedges in Matthew Williams's revamped Givenchy aesthetic.
A coat to last a lifetime.
Gloves are one of those things you always need but never seem to have. This cashmere pair from The Row is the pinnacle of extravagance. 
Truly nothing tops the luxurious feel of cashmere. 
Londoners love Rixo, and the brand recently dropped a new collection of pajamas that can essentially double as outside clothes.
For the perpetual traveler, a suitcase that's tough as nails.
This isn't just any robe; it's a quilted, padded robe, and I'm sure 99% of homebodies will be geeked to open this present.
Girls love Amina Muaddi.
Ever since the spring, I've been hyped over this sweater, and it's definitely a fashion-person favorite right now.
An icon.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
