With the holidays approaching, it's once again time to get something straight. 1) The special woman in your life (your partner, best friend, or sister) deserves a luxury gift, and 2) it doesn't have to cost you a million/billion/trillion dollars. Sure, a designer handbag or first-class plane ticket will run you some $$$, but let's redefine what it means to a luxury gift for her, okay?!
Personally, I think that something "luxurious" could be everything from being able to drink a martini on-demand thanks to your at-home cocktail machine to an impractical purchase that's not expensive per se, just expensive for what it is (like $42 designer lip oil). Think nicer versions of everyday, mundane items, like a sophisticated leather passport cover or Loewe hand soap.
Luxury gifts for her at a glance:
The good news is that you don’t need a black card to shop luxury. This roundup includes the best luxury gifts for her, from small-but-mighty indulgences to bigger, statement-making splurges. Whether you’re in the mood to buy her a little treat or go all out, there’s something in this list of luxury gifts for her that’ll make them feel seriously spoiled.
When is the shipping deadline for Christmas?
This year, USPS recommends shipping by December 18 for Ground Advantage, December 20 for Priority Mail, and December 21 for Priority Mail Express to arrive by Christmas. UPS and FedEx usually cut off Ground shipping around December 17–19, with expedited options available through December 23–24 depending on service level—but you'll likely have to shell out more cash for that. Retailers like Amazon often push delivery deadlines as late as December 22 or 23 for Prime members—but don't wait that long. Time is ticking, order early and check the shipping deadlines at your retailer before you hit "add to cart."
Best Deal
Nothing like a pair of fancy pajamas to make her feel luxe. She might not be able to get out bed when she's snuggled up in this buttery soft modal set from Eberjey.
For the person who still believes handwritten notes > texts. These beautifully-illustrated notecards and envelopes instantly upgrade thank-you cards and holiday notes. You can personalize them with initials for an extra custom touch she'll adore.
Give her the gift that keeps on giving: silence. Well, sort of. For concerts, flights, or simply surviving loud group dinners, these chic earplugs are a lifesaver. They reduce noise without muting the world completely, so you can still hear the music (or the tea) without the hearing damage. And they look cool, too, not like the dorky bright orange earplugs of yesteryear.
Does she treat her houseplants better than she treats her friends and family? Gift her this sunny little lemon tree, which brings serious Italian costal energy to sunrooms or anywhere that gets good light. Bonus points: It actually produces fruit, so it’s cute and productive.
It sounds cheesy, but diamonds really are a girl's best friend. Minimal, sparkly, and effortlessly luxe, this bracelet is the kind of everyday jewelry she’ll never take off—and will absolutely get asked about. And since it's dainty, it won't feel over the top to be worn every day.
Designed for face and body use, this glowing panel taps into infrared red light tech to support glowing skin and overall wellness—no appointment required. She can leave it up at her desk for all-day self-care or bring it out whenever she's needing a little glow. Especially in the dead of winter, it's a great pick-me-up.
If she's constantly drooling over Charlotte Tilbury's newest makeup launches (which who isn't), surprise her with the whole dang thing. This cult-favorite Pillow Talk set delivers rosy, universally flattering glam in one perfectly giftable package. You don't even have to wrap it!
This TikTok-viral K-beauty skincare device is beloved by Hailey Bieber, and we totally get why.This all-in-one device helps to absorb skincare products into your skin, smooth facial lines, increase volume, and more.
This green croc bag looks a lot more expensive than its just-over-$100 price tag. The brand is carried by everyone from EmRata to Gigi Hadid, so it’s got the A-list seal of approval.
If they’re into fashion, they’ve definitely been eyeing something from Ralph Lauren to round out their cold-weather wardrobe. Treat them to one of the brand's iconic bear crewneck sweaters.
I think she deserves a beautiful watch, personally. She's sure to obsess over this unique watch with a pretty green band and a unique, retro watch face.
You'll be saving them tonsss of money by gifting them this at-home laser hair removal device. It’s super lightweight and simple to use. Goodbye, razor burn! Goodbye, painful salon sessions! See you never!

Treat your giftee to these sleek headphones that look v stylish and offer incredible sound quality. They’ll be able to completely immerse themselves in their fave tunes or shows thanks to the active noise cancellation feature.
If she loves her beauty sleep, upgrade her nights with this weighted blanket from Bearaby. The knit style is so cozy, and the evenly-distributed heaviness feels like a big hug.
Okay, if she’s always on the go, she needs this mini tote-shaped crossbody for all her plans and such. We love the thick strap for hands-free and easy carrying.
This internet-beloved TV is my home decor white whale: Basically, it's a framed TV that displays realistic-looking art when it's not in use, turning that black rectangle on your wall into an aesthetic moment.
It pains me to say this—and I'm sure you don't even want to hear it—but La Mer’s cult-favorite moisturizer is actually worth the insanely high price point. The brand’s signature ingredient, cell-renewing Miracle Broth, works wonders to help skin feel firmer, look more lifted, and visibly diminish lines and wrinkles.
Flowers will never be an overrated gift—especially if they’re eternity flowers from Venus Et Fleur. These are extra special because they’ll last ’em up to a year! Plus, how stunning is the packaging?
Oh, just some chic leather accessories to help her sort out her things while traveling! Any self-proclaimed fancy girl will love this (and the wrapping is gorgeous, too).
