Perfect Holiday Gift Ideas

Handbags, Cashmere, & Accessories!

There are so many gift ideas in my look above, but let’s start with the Wallet on a String bag from Henri Bendel.
They continue to find new ways to design bags that are multi-functional. I’m a HUGE fan of things you can use in more than one way.
You get more bang for your buck. This bag is a wallet, attached to a small, sleek cross-body bag.
You can carry them together like I am (above) or detach them, and carry them separately.
By the way, if there are better wallets than Henri Bendel’s … I have not found them. They are THE best!

Pinch me…

Personalize Your Bag with Charms and Pins…

The dual functionality on its own would have been enough, but Henri Bendel takes it one step further.
You can personalize your bag. Add your name, your initials, your interests…
You can see on my bag above, I added the letters “E-R-I-N” a bee pin, a Henri Bendel pin and several hearts and stars.
It’s a fun touch that works for women of all ages from teens to stylish seniors.

Wear Your Necklace Several Ways

Now, I want to highlight the necklace

I talked about this in my first holiday Henri Bendel post, but it’s SO good, it’s worth repeating.
You can wear it as a collar necklace like I did in some of the pictures above
You can wear it as a choker… OR a lariat (just turn it around).
The necklace is adjustable so you can also play around with the height so it hits the sweet spot right under your collar bones.

Caped Crusader

Lastly, I just wanted to talk a little bit more about the cashmere at Henri Bendel.

If you want a fail safe, AMAZING gift for your friends or family…
I would definitely take a look at the cashmere cape or beanie (both pictured above).
They are luxe, classic, but with a modern HB twist.

ANDDDD… don’t forget to check out my holiday gift boutique HenriBendel.com.
I’m SOOOOOO excited to have my own shopping page here.
