I Have the Gift of Incredible Taste—12 Luxe Items Anyone Would Want to Unwrap

1 week ago 3

I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's almost that time of year when every conversation ends with "Happy Holidays!" I'm not sure where the time went, but luckily, I've already gotten a head start on holiday shopping. As a fashion editor, my brain naturally separates items into categories and occasions—all you'll hear from me when shopping is, "Ooh, that would look amazing on vacation" or "This would be such a cute gift." These days, I'm focused on the latter, and of all of the incredible pieces I've seen this year, my favorites have been at Fossil.

The brand has always specialized in intentional design and craftsmanship, and from its unique watch ring to its iconic mother-of-pearl watch faces, Fossil's classic styles are particularly swoon-worthy this year. But Fossil offers much more than incredible watches, which is why I've rounded up all of the jewelry (and even iconic handbags) that'll be the perfect finishing touch on your looks this season. Consider this your personal Fossil gift guide. You're welcome.

If Who What Wear editors had to name one piece of jewelry that's dominated the past two years, we'd unanimously agree on the timepiece. Not only did trend forecasters predict that watches would reign supreme, but all of your favorite influencers and tastemakers have been seen sporting this timeless accessory.

I have so many screenshots of the Raquel Watch and the matching Watch Ring in my camera roll. The Raquel style is straight from the archives and was updated to fit seamlessly into the classic yet on-trend styles of 2024. You can't go wrong with the slim and versatile silhouette of the watch, which features a polished seven-link band that's available in four different colors. Did I mention that you can get complimentary engraving or embossing? Trust me, that custom personalization will be the cherry on top of an already special gift. The matching ring also makes quite a statement. Without fail, people will always ask where you got it. Might I add that the flexible band is perfect for gifting—you won't have to awkwardly ask for someone's ring size. Gift someone any of the timepieces below and they'll never stop thanking you.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Jewelry will always be a top-tier gift. It doesn't require much thought when you know a thing or two about the recipient's personal style (and when you have incredible options to choose from). Lately, I've been drawn to Fossil's watch-inspired jewelry—they feel like an ode to the timepiece but don't feature a dial. Take the Arden Bracelet for example. At first glance, it looks like a loose watch dangling off your wrist, but with a closer look, it's a standard bracelet with a bit of flair. And if you have someone in your life whose style is more minimalistic, the Harlow style would be right up their alley. I love that Fossil adds a modern twist to the classic styles that shoppers fell in love with years ago, always offering amazing options for every shopper.

Come to Fossil for the watches, and stay for the luxe handbags. Fossil offers the kind of shopping experience where you have one item on your wish list, but can't resist leaving with more than what you came for. For me, that irresistible piece would be the Jessie Leather Bucket Bag. Available in brown, black, and leopard haircalf, this bag can elevate just about any outfit. It functions as an everyday bag for the girl on the go, the busy mom, or the Gen Z person who loves adding chains and charms to their big bags. Other than the Jessie, Fossil has many other handbags in endless sizes, silhouettes, and colors, including animal print, which has been trending hard lately. Every handbag is made of premium materials and bound to garner compliments.
