It’s hard to believe it but the holiday season is just around the corner. 2020 has been a stressful year, and we’re all glad to finally see the holidays. Your family and friends might be asking you what sort of presents you want this year. It’s the perfect chance to get investment pieces for your wardrobe. Adding a new favourite piece to your wardrobe can reinvent your daily outfits and add a little joy to your day. Small independent luxury fashion brands offer some of the highest-quality products on the market and make the perfect investment pieces.
I’ve rounded up five of my top picks to add to your Christmas wishlist. Make sure to tag me on Instagram (@syl_stylebysyl) if you’re lucky enough to receive any of these items this holiday season!
The bigger the earrings; the brighter the smile! These oversized square earrings will brighten any look. Whether you want to add a little fun to your workwear, or spice up a casual Sunday outfit, these earrings are a perfect accessory. The bright red and pink earrings will create a modern contrast when styled with monochrome outfits. You can wear your hair up to show off your new friends, or wear your hair down for a retro look.
Hattie’s earrings are made by hand using polymer clay. The earrings are lightweight enough to wear all day long. Complete with a cotton pouch, these earrings will become your go-to choice of statement jewellery. I’m completely addicted, and you?
2. ESZKA Crane Jumper – Harvest Club
Jumpers are the perfect piece of investment clothing. You can style them with everything from pencil skirts to jogging bottoms. Wear them at home while watching Netflix, or pack them with you for a winter vacation. I love the ‘Crane’ jumper in particular due to its bird motif. Birds are a common metaphor in literature and are used to represent independence and freedom. This jumper will help you find your confidence and embrace your inner girl boss. The Crane jumper is 100% cotton and can live in your wardrobe all year round.
No wish list is ever complete without a handbag choice. Polène is a contemporary Parisian brand that was launched in 2015 by three siblings. Their bags are hand-made by artisans in Spain, and their designs embody timeless French elegance. The ‘Numéro Un’ bag is one of their best-selling pieces and would be a versatile piece in any woman’s wardrobe. The bag features both a top handle and a crossbody strap, making it the perfect everyday bag to take on-the-go. The top handle gives a touch of lady-like elegance.
Green is the colour of the year, and this crocodile printed calf leather is second to none. This bag is the perfect present to open on Christmas morning.
We are all becoming more aware of our environmental footprint. The sustainable fashion industry is growing every day to meet consumer demand for eco-friendly fashion. The inspiration for Leselles came when its founder, Elle, visited a factory and discovered how much wool was going to waste. Her scarves use the highest-quality surplus wool, protecting our planet while making something beautiful.
A scarf is an investment piece that you can keep in your wardrobe for years to come. You can style it with your favourite winter coat for colder months or wear it as a shawl during a midsummer’s night. It gives you something to snuggle up in while elevating any outfit with a touch of elegance. Any of the Leselles scarves would be an ideal addition to your Christmas wishlist.
I believe that jewellery can tell a story. It’s an expression of who you are, and each piece reveals a little part of your personality. The Myoshi bracelet is a piece that you could wear every day, or save for a special occasion. The design seamlessly brings together the glamour of the 70s with modern trends to create a must-have bracelet. Jewellery can completely change up a look, and this bracelet can be styled on its own or layered with your other favourite pieces.
