Christmas doesn’t always have to be about giving, it can be a great time to treat yourself too. In the Christmas hype and buzz around buying gifts for other people, we often forget about ourselves too. This year, that shouldn’t be the case.

Treat yourself (and your friends and family) this Christmas
Treating yourself doesn’t always come in the form of luxury items, it can be running yourself a bath, going to the cinema by yourself or just making sure that you’ve got time to relax and unwind after a busy day. However, we know that sometimes you will want to invest in gifts for yourself, so here are some ideas on what to purchase if you are looking to splash the cash this Christmas. A lot of these suggestions can also make great gifts too!
Cartier Love Bracelet
This purchase is perfect if you have a significant other, or if you want to show a little bit of self-love. The Love bracelet is built on the concept of everlasting love by the fact that you can’t take it off unless you’ve got a specific screwdriver that comes with the bracelet. The Love bracelet comes in several different colours, from 18ct yellow gold, white gold and rose gold.
Jo Malone Fragrances
Jo Malone fragrances can make for the perfect treat. There is nothing more important than smell. Jo Malone offers a variety of scents, from lime basil and mandarin to English pear and freesia, there’s a scent for everyone. If you’re buying one of these fragrances as a gift and you don’t know what they will like, Jo Malone makes a gift set of five different scents so they can try each of them.
Gucci wool mules
Nothing says comfort like a pair of Gucci slippers. These wool mules are embellished with, of course, the classic interlocking GG logo. Made out of soft merino wool and designed to have a pointed toe and leather sole, these slippers could make for a great Christmas gift for someone or even a cosy addition for yourself.
Saint Laurent monogram cardholder
A cardholder is a nice accessory when you don’t want to take a big and bulky purse out with you. The Saint Laurent monogram cardholder looks extremely sleek and features four card slots and a quilted design. For £190 it’s also a very reasonable purchase if you want to splash the cash.
Rolex Lady-Datejust
This suggestion is on the pricier side of gifts. However, the Rolex Lady-Datejust is the perfect first Rolex as it features an elegant design with simplistic features. This watch is made from a choice of stainless steel, everose white or 18ct yellow gold. The Lady-Datejust can be completely customised down to the dial and strap. The dial options include mother of pearl, meteorite and diamonds and diamonds can come all over the dial, or not on the dial at all.
Rolex have also introduced the Lady-Datejust with a very feminine pink dial. This colour dial has a sunray finish which creates light reflections. If you want a Rolex, but not the standard gold or silver one, this could be a good and unique option.
Balenciaga classic city small black leather top handle bag
The Balenciaga city bag is one of the most on-trend bags right now. The simplicity and size of the city bag make a real statement, and it can be paired with pretty much anything. It has a slight Y2K feel to it, especially when it comes in colours like hot pink and bright orange. The bag features two top handles, metal hardware and a glossy finish.
Spending money on the ones you love… even if that includes yourself
Around Christmas time we always speak about spending money on the ones we love. But we forget to show self-love. So if the one you love is yourself, then there is no better time to treat yourself than Christmas. So whether you want to physically invest in yourself by buying some Gucci slippers a Louis Vuitton handbag for sale or even a Rolex, or whether you just want to run yourself a nice bath, it’s always a good idea to treat yourself.
