With the 2025 Saks holiday light show opening on November 24 in New York City, the retailer is firmly top of mind for holiday gifting. When it comes to gifts, I always return to one category: little luxuries. They're small indulgences that feel elevated, thoughtful, and special.
Many of the items below are pieces I already own—and love—so consider this a curated list of things I'd be thrilled to receive myself, including a plush bathrobe, a Dior Lip Oil, and the perfect pair of gold hoops. For fragrance lovers, you can't go wrong with cult favorites like Delina Exclusif, Bal d'Afrique, and Lost Cherry. I'd highly recommend cashmere-lined leather gloves, a designer cardholder, a luxe hand wash, Georg Jensen candlestick holders, a sauna blanket, and even a Staub cast-iron pan.
These are the gifts I'm convinced would catch any fashion person's eye at Saks Fifth Avenue this holiday season.
One of the best things I've ever bought for myself is a bathrobe. Having something warm and cozy to put on after a shower or to wear around the house when I'm cold has genuinely made my life better.
Cashmere-lined gloves are such a good gift.
I will always want a Dior Lip Oil.
A Polo Ralph Lauren sweater they'll never get sick of.
If Delina Exclusif was given to me, I would be thrilled.
Parfums de Marly makes a room diffuser of the scent as well.
Everyday gold hoops.
A chic Dôen cardigan.
These faux-fur mittens look so warm.
In the fragrance world, Bal d'Afrique is a pretty universal crowd-pleaser.
Surprise them with Loulou de Saison.

…or this Balenciaga one.
Lost Cherry is one of Tom Ford's best-selling fragrances.

I don't know anyone who wouldn't love to receive a high-quality Staub pot.
This fish pan is incredible too.
I had a brief stint where my TikTok For You page was showing me videos of people manually making juice, which influenced me to want a sleek silver juicer.
If the person you're shopping for is into wellness, the HigherDose sauna blanket is perfect.
Diptyque room spray.
A four-piece cup-and-saucer set.
This timeless Prada wallet.
A tray for trinkets.
A classic trench coat.
