Angelica Hicks X Mr & Mrs Smith Gift Card

For Your Mother Who’s Been There From The Start
So it’s not what will come to mind when one thinks of a ‘thoughtful’ gift, but it’s a way of thanking mom, and telling her that she too, deserves a break every now and then. Mr & Mrs Smith has teamed up with Angelica Hicks, a fashion illustrator with a tongue-in-cheek sense of aesthetics, to design its latest gift set.

You may remember Hicks’ work for Gucci’s limited-edition summer T-shirt collection this year, and you can expect the same level of fun and cheer in this. Hicks’ Get a Room! Gift card features a cartoonised lobby and a tassled key chain. With over a thousand hotels and villas to choose from, you can be sure mom will take her time to plan her dream vacation.

Bracelets From L’Atelier Fred

For The Sister Who Dislikes Routine
Forget a single bespoke piece, the best gift for her is one that is modular. Fred has brought its L’Atelier box to Singapore, the first of its kind in Southeast Asia. Select the type of gold and jewels for both the buckle and fastenings, then digitally match her favourite colour onto the preferred cord material. Not to worry, the machine is able to scan and detect an extensive list of Pantone colours. She’ll probably pick more than one bracelet, but you can always engrave a special message that’ll remind her of you.

Banyan Tree Essentials Signature Collection

For The Zen Best Friend Who’s Been With You Through Your Darkest Days
Banyan Tree’s reformulated line of signature body and aromatherapy products is the outcome of two years of sheer dedication towards conscientious research and rigorous testing. Ranging from aromatherapy balms and perfumes to essential oils and soy candles, the wellness set doesn’t just promise your BFF a zen state of mind, but also advocates the use of sustainable materials through its one-of-a-kind packaging.

Insider tip: Opt for your purchase to be wrapped furoshiki-style, in a silky-smooth fabric woven from recycled plastic bottles which of course, functions fashionably as a scarf.

For Your Crazy Colleague Who’s Always Up For Some Fun
Nothing screams Christmas more than glittering sequins.

Ditch the overly-used clutch for the Dolce Box bag, which is opulently adorned with prints of roses, moons or stars and encrusted with sequins. If that isn’t enough to turn heads, the over-the-top sunglasses from the collection might do just the trick. Dark, mystic blue lenses bounded by a frame bedazzled with illuminating crystals that resemble a starry night — go big or go home this Christmas.
