The Fashion Editor-Approved Picks From Net-A-Porter’s Winter Edit

Holiday gifting just got a lot easier — and way more stylish.

For some, the holiday season can feel seriously stressful. It’s hard to know where to start looking for gifts and even harder to decide which ones are worth the investment. That’s why we’ve teamed up with NET-A-PORTER and our Senior Branded Fashion Editor, Elly Ayres, to share a few of the season’s best gifting trends. “I think the craftcore trend is still very much with us (and makes for a wonderful jewelry gift),” says Ayres. “I also think we’re going to see more flamboyant rock ‘n’ roll-inspired apparel, thanks to a certain British ex-boy band member whose penchant for glamorous, stage-ready looks is unstoppable.”

And as for her top holiday gifting tip? “I start the holiday gift hunt for friends and family as early as possible, so I can gift thoughtfully and avoid the panic of the last-minute purchase,” says Ayres. “If I see something that instantly reminds me of a friend’s style or creative interests, it usually makes a great gift pick for them! I try to shop for pieces that are in line with my recipients’ signature look — but a little more head-turning — because those are often the pieces they love, but haven’t already bought for themselves.”

From whimsical ear cuffs to the chicest velvet pajamas, Ayres picked out her favorite gift picks from NET-A-PORTER, where there’s something to gift everyone on your list (and wear yourself to every holiday occasion).
