The holidays are officially upon us, and its time to start thinking about the perfect gifts to buy for your loved ones. This season, we enlisted the help of 17 CFDA Members to help give their suggestions and alleviate some of the seasonal shopping stress. Ranging from diamonds earrings to an interactive workout mirror, here is the only gift guide you need for your holiday shopping.
ADAM SELMAN
Adam Selman x LeSpecs ‘The Prowler’, $119, lespecs.com
“Knowing that once the eggnog, hot buttered rum, and mulled wine has worn off, most of your nearest and dearest are running off to an island to lay in the sun like a gin soaked log in some tropical paradise – giving them some Adam Selman x LeSpecs will truly be the gift that keeps on giving.”
“Writing a hand written note in a handmade card if you don’t have a penny to spend on someone is always a good bet. Maybe think about revealing something truly special to your friend that they’ve forgotten, as opposed to a simple “Happy Holidaze!” maybe “hey, you still owe me $50,” or “I still think about you every time I wear this necklace I stole from you 5 years ago but hide it every time you come to my house”. If you’d rather not spend your time making that homemade card, I’d recommend a pair of my sheer tulle rose embroidered jeans sold exclusively at Opening Ceremony instead.”
“Nothing says “I love you” more than…a subtle hint to get back in the gym. Plus the trainers at Barry’s Bootcamp are some serious eye candy.”
Sunday Riley Good Genes All-In-One Lactic Acid Treatment, $105, sundayriley.com
“I’m not talking about the same glamorous candle that everyone else is going to give everyone else. Try something someone wouldn’t normally buy for themselves, like a fancy skin lotion. Sunday Riley makes killer all natural products and is sold online, and at local shops like one of my favorite stores Bigelows.”
“Women shouldn’t have to compromise their health for beauty which is why I love Tata Harper’s skincare products. They are all natural, organic, and have no artificial chemicals, leaving my skin feeling healthy and fresh.”
“Python Palms Boots are the ultimate 2019 animal print neutral. These boots are perfect with everything and that’s the kind of fashion gift you want to give.”
“I have always been a firm believer that less is more, but I honestly can’t get enough of Dr Barbara Sturm’s products. You can never start too early..”
“A girl can dream! All of Anita Ko’s designs are stunning classics, just think of it as an investment..”
Kaws x Sesame Street Sweatshirt, $29.90, uniqlo.com
“The perfect collaboration Kaws x Sesame Street exclusive to Uniqlo for anyone who’s still a kid at heart. I have been a fan of Kaws ever since I can remember and my son Levon is obsessed with anything and everything Elmo, so its a win-win for all.”
Slip Beauty Sleep To Go Travel Set, $119, violetgrey.com
“The slip silk queen pillowcase and eye mask are the perfect gift. I haven’t missed a wink or wrinkle with mine.”

“This is my personal favorite frame for the ladies. Its got a cool, retro vibe and is really flattering. The style conscious women in your life will definitely appreciate this one.”
“If I didn’t already have this, it would be high on my list. It’s high quality print featuring amazing content and focusing on photography of my favorite sport. Doesn’t get much better then that for me.”
Beams Plus Ribbed Mélange Mohair-Blend Cardigan, $245, mrporter.com
“The Beams Plus sweaters at Mr. Porter are another gift on my personal list. They are that ideal balance of being relaxed but not at all sloppy, and the fit, materials and construction are what you would expect from them – perfection.”

Oribe Cote d’Azur Luminous Hair & Body Oil, $75, oribe.com
“This is by far the best scent to wear, I don’t like strong scents that overtake you, so this one is just enough without being too much, it also gives your skin a nice sheen.”
“Created in one of my favorite yarns from Japan. Washy paper used to be used in the armor linings of samurai – now it’s for my eternal sensei. The ocean..”
“Throw all of the above into this beauty and head for the coast… Jon Passavant and Benj Lee are great friends and their gorgeous pieces are hand crafted in England. I love this bag.”
