Featured in this article
Glossier Black Tie Set
A box from Glossier is like Kryptonite—it makes fans of the brand weak with delight. This limited edition four-piece [set](https://www.glossier.com/products/black-tie-set) ($50) holds party prep for it-girls of all complexions: Black gel eyeliner (smudge or clean line), Moonstone Haloscope stick (for a soft focus Christmas light glow), a lip gloss wand for glassy effect, and new #glossierpink nail polish. The black satin ribbon also doubles as a hair tie or choker, for girls who love to improvise.
The Sleeper Candy Cane Pajama Suit
This [shawl-collared short robe, tasseled belt, and slim cropped pants](http://the-sleeper.com/en/shop/candy-canes-pajama-suit/) ($260) play just as well with stilettos, champagne, and scarlet lips, as they do with fuzzy slippers. So, ring in the New Year in PJs! Cutting the carpet—at home, or on the town.
Cole Haan Women's GrandPrø Tennis Sneaker
These lightweight gunmetal leather [sneakers](http://www.colehaan.com/women%27s-grandpro-tennis-sneaker-metallic-gunmetal/889203944102.html?lsft=adtype:pla,channel:online&gclid=CjwKEAiAg5_CBRDo4o6e4o3NtG0SJAB-IatYQt9NYDfaypzmzzFdArkwcQWS5ZdQvSlrP3N8H1OmOBoCw9_w_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds&dclid=CP60zbT84tACFcV8Ygod4nENaQ) ($150) are heaven for the feet. The ultra-precise design is polished enough for wearing with formal clothes, or for adding sparkle to sweats (hello, holiday travel). But the performance qualities actually make them wearable during work outs. And don’t worry if they get muddy on a hike—you can rinse them with a little water and they'll look like new.
François Gilles Plastic Market Bag
Made in Taroudant, Morocco by ex-pat decorator François Gilles, these [totes](https://www.instagram.com/p/BM1baD6DxJ4/?taken-by=_xenomania_) ($100), made partially of recycled plastic, add flair when taking a spin to the market. (Never slouch on chic.) This pink “lace” version was snapped up by Danish supermodel Helena Christensen last week.
What to get for that impossibly stylish colleague (or sister, or girlfriend)? You know the one—effortlessly on-trend, maybe a bit daring, but always pulling it off with panache? (Infuriating.) What gift could such a discerning creature not wither at? Gift certificate? Travesty! For stylish fail-safes, look below.
Oh, and if you're searching for gifts for him, we've got those too.

The shapely cuff is 18k gold, and a dangling freshwater pearl keeps things kinetic.

Steven Alan09Rachel Comey x Hansel from Basel Socks
Turn any sandals into dance-party-ready glitter machines. (Socks-under-sandals is the latest. Stylish recipient will know this.) Made in Japan, these [chaussettes](http://hanselfrombasel.com/collections/holiday-gift-guide/products/metallic-rib-crew?variant=5791241349) ($41) are the love child of Indie super star designers Rachel Comey and Hansel from Basel.
Net A Porter10D.S. & Durga Candle
This Proustian line of scents and candles will fill out the aesthetic universe (smells must be beautiful too) of any taste-crazed bon vivant. The “[portable fireplace”](https://www.dsanddurga.com/collections/candles/products/portable-fireplace) ($64) is perfect for harkening the olfactory notes of the winter season, with heart notes of smoke, oak ash, and cedar—and top notes of dwarf pine, naturally. Pull out the Dostoevsky and get cozy.
Argent11Argent Crossover Vest
This new female-founded workwear brand is dedicated to making officewear cool and functional. This mens-y plaid peaked lapel [vest](https://argentwork.com/products/crossover-vest?variant=28890020163) ($298) works as a deconstructed suit over a turtleneck. Or work it with jeans, a t-shirt, and heels for “I got this” confidence in a meeting. The bonded media pocket inside lets her carry around an iPhone and lipgloss without overstuffing her pants.
Rothys12Rothy’s Flats
These knitted flats with thin, sneaker-like soles are like yoga pants for your feet, but the effect is pure elegance. The perfect [ballet flat](https://rothys.com/collections/women) (in either captoe shown, $125, or point, $145) for running errands in jeans, dashing to yoga, rushing to a meeting in a suit, or painting the town red. The 3D knit uppers are made from a material derived from recycled water bottles. The shoes are machine-washable. Done.

Montblanc14Montblanc Augmented Paper
A smart pen and paper ensemble is a must for board meetings. But this one truly is smart—in the connected-to-your-phone sense of the word. [Montblanc's notebook](http://www.montblanc.com/en-us/discover/specials/augmented-paper.html) tracks your penstrokes, and every word (or doodle) is transferred to an app on your phone. Keep digital copies of all your important thoughts. The silly ones too. And yes, the pen is a real Montblanc. $725
