The holidays are about indulging in luxurious gifts. Keep that in mind as you hunt for that perfect present for your friends and family.

Indeed, practical presents have their place, but there's something to be said for that over-the-top, whimsical item under the tree—like an embroidered chair from Capellini, a diamond-encrusted band of gold from Pomellato, caviar-infused face cream from La Prairie, platinum water bottles from Bkr and more. Depending on her predilections, one (if not all) of these luxurious gift ideas will undoubtedly strike her fancy.

If she’s a shoe lover, jetsetter or a feline enthusiast, treat her this holiday season with the item that just speaks to her soul—no matter what the cost.
