The Ultimate Gift Guide 2023

This holiday season is about unpacking joy - connecting with friends and family, and gifts that spark great happiness. With Christmas around the corner, we’ve curated the best gifts to help you show appreciation for your loved ones. Discover our top picks this holiday season, including Gifts for Her, Gifts for Him, and much more.

Choosing a handbag or wallet for someone can be very personal, making it even more rewarding when you’ve found the perfect piece for them.

If you’re shopping for mum, your sister or girlfriend, give her something that she’ll take with her wherever she goes. Women know that a good wallet can make even the most difficult days more manageable. From zip-around wallets and other large wallets that carry everything, to small wallets and cardholders for the essentials, our wallet collection caters for any lifestyle.

 Aside from wallets, every girl needs a go-to bag. If you’re shopping for someone who cares as much about style as function, we recommend a crossbody bag. Crossbody bags are designed to be hands-free, allowing them to go about their day while keeping essentials like their phone, wallet and keys close at hand. There’s a crossbody bag for every style, from timeless leather bags from Evity for everyday to statement pieces from Marikai, with bold colours to set them apart.

 If you’re shopping for a verified fashionista, spoil them this Christmas with something special they’ll love for years to come. Whether you’re buying their very first designer piece, or adding to their growing collection, find inspiration from our selection of designer gifts by AYA, Guess, Calvin Klein and more.

The best Christmas gifts for men are items they need, so why not choose something special he'll use daily?

If you want to streamline your partner's work days, leather bags are as stylish as they are durable. From smart briefcases for commutes to the office to sleek duffle bags to pack his gym gear, he'll appreciate a reliable bag to help him conquer whatever the day throws.

We recommend a quality leather wallet if you're looking for Christmas gifts for dads or older men. Chances are they're due for a new wallet, whether his current one is beyond repair or he needs to declutter and downsize. For more men’s leather gift ideas, we also have wallet and belt sets and wallet and card holder sets from well-loved brands such as Colorado. Backpacks are also great gifts for men, as they're a staple piece he can use long-term for any occasion. A classic black backpack is the perfect all-rounder bag for men on the go. Ideal for work, travel, or days when he needs more storage than his pockets.

Kids' bags are the perfect Christmas gift to prepare them for the year ahead. Not only will they love having somewhere to store their belongings, but bags give them the gift of independence and responsibility.

Whether they’re heading back to school or need an option for going on family trips, backpacks are the perfect travel buddy to keep kids organised. Choose a favourite that will do it all, including backpacks for boys and girls featuring their favourite prints, cartoon characters, and more.
