Gifting with our retail team.


Who better to share gifting ideas than our retail teams? They know our styles inside and out, so we asked our crew in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, New York and DC to spill their go-to gift items just in time for the holidays. From comfy womens shoes to travel bags and masks, there’s something for everyone on the list.
 
The Gift Guide.
This season is all about giving thanks. Whether it’s a pair of shoes they’ve been eyeing for months or a couple of masks for their stocking, this guide is here to help you reach present perfection.

“I’m giving my mom The Mary Jane in Black. They’re fun and classic, just like my mother. She can wear them with anything, and be reminded of me every time she ties the bow.”

“The Portfolio in Sage Camo tops my list of gifts I’ll get myself. This classic print in a dark neutral color bridges form and function, making it exactly what I need in an accessory.”

“The Lace Up in Vanilla is perfect for my best friend from college. She’s currently doing her rotations for medical school and needs a great work shoe that still works on the weekend.”

“Personally, I think The Essential Pouch makes the best gift for everyone on my list. It can be carried as a clutch or used as an organizer inside The Essential Tote—those magnetic fasteners are such a useful feature.”

“Nothing says “The Holidays” quite like a pair of metallic shoes. I’ll be gifting myself The Point in Night Metallic this year.”

“The Saddle Bag is just right for the sporty gals in my life. They can go hands-free and rock it every day!”

“I’ve been looking for just the right shoe to complete my collection and I think The Loafer in Navy Giraffe is the one I’ll gift myself this year! It’s a bold print that classically elegant. Plus, I love the dimension of the multiple colors.”

“The Mary Jane in Wildcat is going to my best friend! The pattern is classic and fresh at the same time—plus, she can dress them up or down.”

“The Handbag in Total Black has gunmetal grey hardware making it so sleek. This bag is just the ticket for my aunt who wears both gold and silver jewelry. This will be a great classic and versatile bag for her to use for her everyday bag!”

“The Mask in Olive & Navy is the perfect unisex gift. Masks are good for those “just in case” moments when you forget to get someone a present.”

"The Bucket Bag in Ink & Ivory is an organizational dream. My sister has two kids and she can use the two side pockets to organize all their goodies while staying hands-free with the crossbody strap. Plus, it's machine washable so if juice spills, she can clean it!"

“The Sneaker in Night Stripe is just right for my grandma! She lives in our sneaker, often saying they’re the only shoes that fit her feet. Her favorite color is Navy, so I think she’ll be excited to show off in these.”

“Stocking stuffer alert! The Vanity Set in Spruce & Raspberry is just right for mom. It can even be broken up into two gifts if you’re feeling the holiday crunch.”
