Here, ELLE Canada digital director Cynthia Quellet shares the handpicked treasures on her wishlist.
Taylor Belt, Sezane
Price: $110
A beautiful, timeless leather piece. Wear with jeans or a dress.
Olympe Ear Cuff, Hermès
Price: $385
I’ve been looking for a delicate piece of ear jewellery for a few months now. This tiny gold-plated model from Hermès definitely caught my eye.
Le Vernis, Chanel
Price: $44
This golden shade (Tuxedo) will give my manicure a festive air. Ephemeral edition.
Cyme Mini Bag, POLENE
Price: $380 US
The aesthetics and the quality of Polene’s leather make the French brand a sure bet. I’d be proud to wear this new camel model.
Lace Camisole, H&M
Price: $31
I love the fluid way this satin top falls. The lace details look great under a low-cut sweater.
AirPods Pro, Apple
Price: $329
Ever since I tried my boyfriend’s AirPods Pro, I can’t live without them. If he ever wants to see his again, I have no choice but to get my own pair!
Terracotta Crumpled Salad Bowl, Helio Ferretti
Price: $62
This fruit bowl almost looks like a work of art! It would look great on my countertop.
Lace Ruffle Sock, Simons
Price: $12
Isn’t the lace edging on these socks the perfect amount of preppy? I’m already imagining wearing them with my patent derbies. Perfect for a Christmas stocking!
Recess Pickleball Paddle, Anthropolgie
Price: $86
Pickleball is the new sport everyone’s talking about. With this set, I won’t be playing on the chic courts of Central Park, but at least I’ll have a nice racket!
Women’s Kinetic Impact NXT Boots, Sorel
Price: $200
Say goodbye to winter dreariness with these pretty Sorel boots! I love the fashionable look of this style, which combines waterproof wear with warmth.
Cake Stand, OUI
Price: $27
I’ve always looked at my friends’ cake stands with envy. Here’s my excuse to start baking!
Jute Table Runner, Soha & Co.
Price: $35
This jute table runner will look great during the festive season as well as on more rustic occasions.
Kelowna Dress, Eve Gravel
Price: $296
I love the cut of this dress, its bold colour and the fact that it’s made in Montreal. For me, it’s a big YES.
Classic Yatzy, Anthropologie
Price: $33
I played Yatzy a bunch as a teen during the summer vacations. I’d be over the moon to pull out this chic version on winter evenings or during weekends at the cottage.
Personalized Gua Sha, OMY
Price: $40
To try the gua sha is to love it! This black obsidian stone accessory from OMY Laboratoires can be engraved with your name and be used cold or hot, depending on the desired effect.
