Christmasshopping always feels exciting, but come December when the festive season really hits, a lot of us simply don’t have the time or the inspiration to find the perfect gifts for friends, family or colleagues.
With so many gift options on shelves and in stores, shopping itself can be an absolute mission – but we’re aiming to take the time and the stress out of your shopping with early Christmas gifting guides, helpfully broken down into price points to suit your budget.
We’ve had our team of OK! fashion and beauty editors, who are clued up on all of the latest lifestyle trends, select the gifts they want to see under their trees this year. So from metallic boots to a midnight musk scent, here are the luxury buys we guarantee will win you approval this festive season…
Expert-picked luxury Christmas 2022 gifts
Fashion & beauty director Michelle’s picks
Louis Vuitton Purse, £90, see similar priced pre-loved bags here at Cudoni
I’m a big fan of shopping preloved sites as you can bag an absolute bargain. The ultimate gift doesn’t have to be “brand new”.
Rixo Leanna Dress, £255 here
A party dress is for life and not just for Christmas. This is my motto when hunting for a statement number that will not only see me through the festive season but can be worn all year too.
Sandra Alexandra Heart Earrings, £82 here
Do I even need to say anything about these earrings? I swear I’ll be having dreams about them right up until Christmas day.
Boden Belted Wool Maxi Coat, £210 here
Stay cosy and make a statement with this bold coat that will see you through season after season.
Beauty director Lynne’s picks
Jonathan Adler Hush Doormat, £189 here
Love the print, adore the fact that it can be detached and popped in the washing machine.
Guerlain Shalimar Millésime Tonka EDP, £90 here
I’ve sniffed my way through many perfumes, and this one is up there with the best. A gorgeous, limited-edition scent to impress even the most discerning of noses.
White Stuff Poppy Pouch Bag, £55 here
You can choose from three colour-ways, but I’ll be adding this neutral hue to my Christmas list.
Fashion editor Lauren’s picks
Bobbies Metallic Boots, £220 here
I love discovering new accessory brands. I also believe in spending a little bit more money on boots and handbags so they will last season after season. Please, Santa…
River Island Lilac Plisse Midi Dress, £55 in River Island stores (online soon)
How stunning is this lilac shade? I have my eye on this dress for an upcoming New Year’s Eve party.
Estella Bartlett Advent Calendar, £150 here
Forget choccie advents, I’m dreaming of opening up this jewellery calendar in the run up to Christmas. I’ll be sharing the joy with loved ones too.
Sif Jakobs Jewellery 18K Gold Plated Ring, £149 here
Made with green zirconia, this luxe ring is at the top of my Christmas wish list.
Beauty editor Laura’s picks
Diptyque Étincelles Scented Candle, £65 here
I’m even thinking of buying myself this candle now so that I can enjoy its rich, smoky scent in the run-up to Christmas. It smells of crackling log fires and hot cocoa – divine.
Fable & Eve Notting Hill Pyjama Set, £85 here
Since I’ll be living in PJs this festive season, I think it’s worth the splurge to get good quality ones like these.
L’Occitane The Best of L’Occitane Gift Set, £69 here
There’s a lot I love about this set: you save nearly £20 on the total value, £5 is donated to Shelter, and it contains some of all-time L’Occitane classics like Almond Shower Oil and Shea Hand Cream.
Fashion editor Harriet’s picks
Jo Malone London Midnight Musk & Amber Cologne, £115 here
Buying a fragrance for someone can be a challenge, but this cult classic spritz from Jo Malone is universally loved.
Kurt Geiger Glitter Mini Kensington Bag, £139 here
Handbags are investments, right? If someone wants to invest in this one for me, I’ll be delighted.
Ted Baker Jacquard Star PJ Set, £56 here
It’s officially hibernation season, and I’ll be celebrating it in style in these luxury – and very lovely – PJs.
French Connection Drinks Trolley, £195 here
Make any living room look classy with a drinks trolley. Optional extra: buy some ornate cocktail glasses to sit on it.
Deputy beauty editor Zoe’s picks
Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer Vinca Blue & Rosé, £359.99 here
If I could have just one thing for Christmas this year, it would be this. It’s pricey but with fast drying technology, no extreme heat and a new flyaway attachment, I know my hair will thank me.
Mango Cream Leather Boots, £149.99 here
I love a knee-high boot, and these cream-coloured beauties will go with so many different outfits. Really, it’s an investment.
Dior Addict Natural Glow Kit, £59 here
If TikTok has made you in desperate need of a Dior lip oil, this kit containing the sell-out lip balm, plumping lip serum and lip gloss will give us trend-led beauty gals our fix.
