Gifts For Her

Reliquia jewellery is always priced well and this gorgeous necklace featuring freshwater pearls and tiny gemstones is summery and perfect for layering. It’s also half price ($75) during BFCM.

Make Christmas morning extra chic and cosy with this fun robe ($149) from Melbourne’s Hommey.

Yes, you may have owned something like this in the ’90s. But this Solaqua skirt ($320) is great with swimmers or a singlet.

For the woman who likes to make a statement! A single SIR earring ($190)  in a bold design will add pizazz to any outfit.

This Bassike tote ($495) is not your ordinary beach bag. Made from handwoven neoprene it’s handy for the beach but stylish enough to use anywhere.

It’s hard to go past Go-To, especially when they produce such cute collaborations, such as this one ($24) with fashion designer Alemais. Self care with style.

Tennis bracelets are so haute right now, and we love this one from Michael Hill ($399)

We love the cute, crescent shape of this St. Agni Bon Bon bag ($289).

This Lee Mathews dress ($899) is a strong contender for the perfect Christmas Day dress.

This stripy Venroy bucket hat ($89) makes the perfect beach companion.

You might not think of Oroton when shopping for swimmers, but this gorgeous one-piece ($249) would work as well on the beach as it would with a pair of black trousers.

These Aere sandals ($150) are a great wallet-friendly dupe for Marni fussbetts and will become your summer MVP (did we say your? We meant “the person you are buying for”.)

This Maison Margiela candle set ($250) includes three different candles all designed to be used in different areas of your home.

Gifting fragrance is so fraught: what if they don’t like the scent you choose? Enter the Byredo mini set ($300), featuring five different fragrances. You can’t go wrong.

It’s borderline embarrassing how many Lucy Folk pieces the PRIMER team collectively owns. You could almost buy us anything from this resort-wear brand (hint) – but this sarong ($225) makes a great gift because one size fits everyone which makes it hard to go wrong.

This tiny Juliette Has A Gun set ($55) includes a fragrance and a moisturiser which can be worn separately or layered together.

In August, we reviewed Ann Patchett’s newest novel and declared it the loveliest book we were likely to read this year. And we weren’t wrong. Set on a cherry orchard and exploring love in all forms, Tom Lake is the author’s sweetest novel yet, $32.99.

A deep dive into the rise of billion-dollar beauty brand Glossier and its enigmatic founder, this book ($32.99) is essential reading for millennial women with a penchant for no-makeup makeup – or anyone with entrepreneurial aspirations for 2024.

Anna Funder uncovers George Orwell’s forgotten wife in this genre-bending masterpiece. Perfect for the most enthusiastic member of your book club. Could also be offered as subliminal messaging to any misogynists in your life, $36.99.
