Happy December! The holidays are a quick three weeks away, which means we've entered shopping crunch time. I've put together some gift ideas based on popular brands and most-loved looks. Whether 2020 hit you hard financially or you're opposed to spending a small fortune on one item, my gift guide will certainly help you achieve your goal without hurting your pocket. Let savings be the gift you give yourself this season!
Gifts for HER
Gucci vs Amazon
I absolutely love Gucci's Sylvie Bee Star bag and found this adorable imitation by Beatfull on Amazon. Bison Denim is another brand store to shop for bee logo accessories // both brands include two types of straps for an option of looks.
$3,100 vs $33.99! #handbags #thebeesknees \\ Bee Shoulder Bag
Gucci vs Express
Gucci may be known for their belts but Express comes to the table with constant sales and undeniable quality. These belts are so similar and for a $622 difference, I'm choosing Express every time. #womensfashion #buckleup
RAINA vs Express
Snakes have been popping up all year by countless designers. This RAINA snake buckle belt can easily be replaced by another Express (sale) find. For a $75 savings, this swap is a no-brainer. #womensfashion #thelookforless
Balenciaga vs Shoes Everywhere
As seen on Instagram: Danielle's Balenciaga's retail for $695. My style inspired mules are not only 95% cheaper, they came with a studded flair. Let's be real, how long will WHITE shoes last walking these New York streets anyway? Achieve the look without overspending. Maybe you know someone following the #winterwhite trend, but don't forget to treat yourself too! These are perfect for any holiday party outfit. Schutz also offers an awesome alternative, currently 40% off with plenty of payment options.
Thom Browne vs Shop-Peche
Black and white is a classic color way for an equally classic shoe. Thom Browne always has the right idea but over $550 in savings puts this Brooklynite ahead of the game. Shop these shoes and other great finds at shop-peche.com
Tiffany & Co vs Pandora | Ross Simons
Tiffany's link bracelet is gorgeous, of course, but Pandora and Ross Simons each created admirable versions of this trendy accessory. Afterpay and Affirm, #ftw. #shopnowpaylater
Cartier vs Macy's | Sarraf.com
The infamous Cartier Love Bracelet costs $7,000! This year both Macy's and Sarraf's caught my eye and stayed within budget with gorgeous versions of their own. One day, Cartier, just not today. #thelookforMUCHless #womensjewelry
David Yurman vs Zales | HSN
If David Yurman's cable bracelet is the style you're looking for, Zales and HSN have you covered. Act fast, HSN has theirs on clearance and I can't see it lasting long at that price.
Tiffany & Co vs Troika
As a writer, I always loved the random ampersand accessories I was given. Troika sells the cutest & keychain with removable "you" and "me" charms if this isn't a stocking stuffer for your other half. #keychain #accessories #stockingstuffer
Gifts for HIM
Leatherman vs Troika
I'm personally in the market for a $90 Swiss Army knife I've had my eye on, but I'd be happy if I found Troika's mini-multi tool keyring in my stocking this year. I don't know a man in my life that wouldn't use this. $35 is a great deal, down from Leatherman's $120 price point. Check https://troikaus.com/ for other cool gift ideas.
Robert Graham vs Religion
Similar look for less: Religion is one of my favorite brands, especially for men. I love their skeleton logo and affordable prices. Shop the site now while everything is 20% off! us.religionclothing.com
David Yurman vs Effy
Box chain bracelets were a fashion staple when I was in high school, I couldn't leave this one out. Effy is a brand I swear by when jewelry shopping, and they are constantly slashing prices. This would make a great gift and it's currently on sale on saks.com
Happy Shopping!
and may your holidays be filled with love and joy.
