I Celebrate My Birthday All Month (Yes I’m A Libra)—30 Small Designer Items I’m Considering Gifting Myself

1 week ago 5

birthday outfit

I’m one of those people who celebrate my birthday *basically* all month long. What can I say, I love a sparkly dress, an excuse to order champagne at dinner, and free restaurant desserts. Not to mention the real best part about birthdays, getting to splurge a little bit on a gift for yourself. After all, we deserve it. This year I wanted to get myself a little designer treat.

I have been itching for that “just left a designer store, shopping bag in hand” feeling and with it being my birthday season the timing, I basically had no choice but to. I started looking for what designer item I wanted to get for myself, and I knew I wanted to keep the item around $500 or less. After doing some digging on Nordstrom and Net-a-Porter I ended up with 30 designer small goods that were so chic I couldn’t just keep them to myself. I found the most elevated Saint Laurent passport holder, a Burberry bear bag charm that is so adorable it hurts, a pair of Miu Miu sunglasses I’m sure are about to sell out, and so many more small designer accessories you’re going to love.

Keep scrolling to take a peek at my list of under-$500 designer goods.
