Searching for the perfect present? These are the best fashion gifts for women under $250
Every holiday season has those hot items that top everyone’s wish list. While your years of writing letters to Santa may be well in the rearview, that doesn’t mean you and your loved ones aren’t hoping to end up on the nice list, and get the best fashion gifts for 2020.
Read on for what you should be dropping hints for, or find a gift that will make that special someone’s eyes light up!
It’s all about elevating your everyday looks
“2020 is the year of the matching sweat set,” says Alison Barnard O'Brien, owner and founder of Boston-based boutique injeanius. “We have a variety of styles to match every personality, from cute and quirky to classic... it’s all about elevating your everyday and if that means a cute loungewear set, we are all in.”
Christy Dawn Sonny Sweater
Created from organic cotton, this mid-weight set has been washed with a high-soft, non-toxic finisher, meaning it will already feel lived-in before you even try it on. She’ll love the five earth tones from organic dye that won’t irritate her skin.
George Men's Holiday Thermal Pajama Set
Don’t forget he likes comfort too! This thermal lounge set will keep him warm all winter long, and will make him smile with nine different seasonal prints. You can suit your guy up in a tasteful deer or plaid print, or give him major Santa’s helper vibes with the green, red and white striped set. Either way, you can’t go wrong with a set that you can also borrow and wear!
Roma Slip Dress in Plum Organic Cotton
Sweats not her thing? She’ll feel cozy and beautiful in this gorgeous organic cotton dress (house dress, nightgown, whatever works) made by a small, woman-owned, U.S. based designer.
Secret Treasures Women's and Women’s Plus Superminky Robe
Another option for keeping her cozy, but not-so-casual is this glam robe that features faux fur around the collar and cuffs. Available in 10 prints and patterns — from leopard to burgundy — and up to size 3X, the Superminky Robe is sure to be the gift she puts on right away Christmas morning.
Jeans are still a favorite
“Jeans are not the top on the work from home list, they do make us feel like we are starting our day even if it means we don't leave the house all day,” says O'Brien. “I think everyone should wear jeans at least once a week.” O’Brien suggests a gift card from Injeanius for a denim fitting experience, saying, “We conduct a Facetime consultation and send a box of options for you to try at home!”
If you already know her size, try these flattering styles and cuts.
Sofia Jeans by Sofia Vergara Women's Skinny Mid Rise Stretch Ankle Jeans, Short Inseam
These stretch skinnies from Sofia Vergara’s collection are one of the most flattering cuts, with a mid-rise and a contoured waist that will have her feeling so sassy and confident!
Wrangler Whimsy High Waist Slim Fit Jeans
Wrangler jeans have always been practical and well-made, but they’re also known for having a flattering fit, and this high waist pair are no exception! Designed with a bit of stretch, these jeans will have her channeling classic cowgirl style.
Athleta Sculptek Ultra Skinny Midnight Jean
While jeans are always in style, never has comfort been so important for so many of us! You’ll want to scoop these stretchy, comfy jeans — that really do feel like yoga pants — before they’re off the shelves.
Don’t forget accessories
Dress up any look with the right piece of jewelry, or stylish purse. These are the gifts that never go out of style, and look great with denim or a nice dress for the next time you’re out on the town.
Brilliance Fine Jewelry 14Kt White Gold One-Fourth Carat Diamond Solitaire Pendant Necklace
Nothing says romance like diamonds, and this solitaire necklace says “I love you” in simple, stunning style. Available in gold or white gold, this necklace has rollback prices that will make it look like you spent a fortune.
Hyer Goods Bucket Bag Black
If sustainability is on her mind this year, Hyer Goods offers chic bags made of leather sourced from factory scraps. This not only reduces the amount of waste that makes its way to landfills, but also ensures each bag is unique, just like her.
Lauren Napier Beauty 2020 Limited Edition Scarf
The perfect gift and accessory for every outfit? A multifunctional scarf. This black silk-satin blend scarf is quite the “conversation starter,” as it’s embroidered with catchphrases that accurately sum up our feelings about this chaotic year such as “Thankful and Annoyed,” “Inner Peace is the Ultimate Prosperity” and “It’s Been Emotional.” Wear it as a head wrap, necktie or layer with your favorite arm candy.
