Preview Editors' Picks: The Ultimate Holiday Splurge on Our Christmas 2024 Wishlist
"I got myself the Chanel slingbacks three years ago and they now look very used and abused. This is the best designer shoe investment—so, so comfy and versatile. I wear it to work events, evening parties, and even casual errands. It's the perfect heel height and it goes well with any outfit. I've been wanting to buy a new one, and I'll likely get it in the same exact color to replace my overused pair." - Marj Ramos-Clemente, Editor-in-Chief
Goatskin & Grosgrain Slingback in Beige & Black, $1100 (approx. P64,300), CHANEL, chanel.com
"A gold chain necklace has been on my wishlist for a while now and this one from Tiffany & Co. makes for a subtle everyday statement accessory. I'm a big fan of Sex and the City, and to me, this piece is like both Carrie's necklace and the SATC movie 'love' keychain. - Reg Rodriguez, Managing Editor
Love Pendant, $850 (approx. P49,700), TIFFANY & CO., tiffany.com
"These Nicole Saldaña Fabiana shoes have been on my wishlist for the longest time. They’re the perfect pair that can go well with any outfit. The design is very minimal with just a thin bow at the middle and it looks sturdier than the usual Mary Janes." - Bacs Arcebal, Creative Director
Fabiana shoes, P23,600, NICOLE SANDAÑA, nicolesandana.com
"I want the Tabi Skirt in Cream Polka Dot by Vania Romoff. I can see myself pairing this with different tops to come up with a variety of outfits, and it looks versatile enough for day and night events." - Maika Bernardo-Yu, Senior Publisher
Tabi Skirt in Cream Polka Dot, P24,750, VANIA ROMOFF, vaniaromoff.ph
"Mine is The Row’s XL Bourse bag or the New Balance x Miu Miu collab—the 530 SL suede sneakers." - Jana Jodloman, Associate Multimedia Director
530 SL suede sneakers, €890 (approx. P54,300), NEW BALANCE X MIU MIU, miumiu.com
"With my fixation on all things matcha, this year, I went and took up a new hobby: making matcha lattes myself. I've grown out of electric frothers and turned to the traditional ways with a chawan bowl, a chashaku teaspoon, and the chasen whisk. Many of these on the market can easily snap and wither away after several rounds of tea-making, so it's best to invest in a sturdy set for fellow matcha enthusiasts. Now, I'm eyeing Tsujiri's Matcha Gift Set, which comes conveniently packaged with all the essentials." - Kat Cabral, Lifestyle Editor
Matcha Gift Set, £60-86 (approx. P4000-6500), TSUJIRI, tsujiri.co.uk
"Bagasáo is known for their intricately woven denim pieces, but personally, I'm eyeing their 3-Way Core Satchel. Made of buttery genuine cowhide leather, the baguette has everything I look for in an everyday carrier—spacious enough for my belongings (which includes a laptop charger, BTW), but still has a sleekness to it with its classic box shape. The burnt tangerine version is calling out to me, and I can already imagine myself color-blocking with its warm hue." - Em Enriquez, Editorial Assistant for Entertainment
3-Ways Core Catchel in Burnt Tangerine, P17,820-19,490, BAGASÁO, bagasao.com
"Fragrance Du Bois' Sirène! I've been looking for a cherry-scented fragrance for a while now, but nothing blended as well with my skin as this one did. It also has oud and moss, two notes that I'm always looking for in my perfumes. And I'm not the only one who fell in love with it—the people who smelled it on me agreed that it smelled amazing. It's the perfect fragrance if you're looking for something soft and feminine, yet seductive and highly addictive. It also comes in a gorgeous bottle and the packaging it comes in looks like an engagement ring box—so romantic!" - Isha Fojas, Editorial Assistant for Beauty
Sirène, £235 (approx. P17,400), FRAGRANCE DU BOIS, fragrancedubois.com
"The pink Bottega Veneta Andiamo bag! My outfits revolve around a lot of neutral pieces so I love adding pops of colors through a bag. It’s the perfect structured tote in the perfect shade of pink too." - Pau Singh, Editorial Assistant for Fashion
Large Andiamo in Ribbon, $8400 (approx. P491,000), BOTTEGA VENETA, bottegaveneta.com
