What The W. ICONS Team Want For Christmas

Phoebe | Social Media Lead
"Nothing says festive season like a touch of sparkle. I’d slick my hair back in a sleek bun and add these statement earrings to instantly jazz up a pair of silk pyjamas on Christmas eve."
Grace | Social Media Assistant
"I absolutely love this classic little bag. The luxe velvet material makes it the perfect addition to any Christmas outfit, and its versatile colour ensures it pairs beautifully with almost anything. The twist handle adds a touch of intrigue and elevates the bag with a sophisticated edge."
Elizabeth | Editorial Assistant
"I’ve been eyeing this coat for well over a year, so I’m adding it to the top of my Christmas list. Leopard is a timeless pattern, but as a coat it can turn any outfit into a statement."
Claudia | E-Commerce SEO Executive
"Every few years, I invest in a quality pair of knee-high boots, and this season’s chocolate brown is a small but stylish update. These are commute-friendly – I’ll wear them all day, whether I’m heading to the office or to a cosy Sunday lunch."
Emma | Head Of Partnerships
"Having invested in a brown croc-effect belt from this brand earlier in the season, I know that this black-and-silver style will work incredibly hard for me in my wardrobe. The silver-tone rings and eyelets are what make this piece stand out, instantly transforming any outfit."
Des | Contributing Senior Fashion Editor
"I was totally seduced by this when I tried it on at a recent press event. It’s chic enough for the office with a tailored trouser and the perfect partner for denim days."
Georgie | Email Marketing Manager
"I love getting little stocking fillers for Christmas, and these sweet, knitted neckerchiefs (that are everywhere) are exactly what I’m after. I adore this one from &Daughter; the pop of red is just what I’ll need to perk me up in dreary January!"
Frankie
"Christmas is the time for new pyjamas. I adore If Only If, and the cotton nighties are perfect for snuggling up on the sofa in front of the fire. Plus, there’s the sweetest matching mini-me styles for the kids, too."
Lily | Fashion Newsletter Editor
"I’m always looking for a statement jewellery piece to lift my everyday, and these bow earrings would do just that. Hover over this photo to see – when worn they give the illusion that they’ve been threaded through your ears. A beautiful trompe l’oeil."
Fenella | Fashion Director
"I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect suede boots, and these can be slouched down to wear with jeans or dressed up for party season."
Polly | Fashion Director
"I love a keepsake gift – something that I’ll treasure forever. This year, I’m after a new watch, something that won’t break the bank but is a true investment piece, and I think I’ve found it in this Tissot model. I’ll wear it every day – it’s monochrome, which I love, and just the right level of chunky to stack with my jewellery."
Deborah | Editor-At-Large
"I adore Tohum’s nature-inspired jewellery, which is handcrafted by artisans in Istanbul. Their new collection, Botanicals Gentle Whisper, is inspired by the silk-tree leaf. The elegant design wraps around your neck and would look striking paired with everything from a white shirt to a strapless evening dress."
Regina |
"Nothing brings me more joy than setting a beautiful table for my guests at Christmas – crafting an inviting atmosphere with every thoughtful detail. A Matilda Goad brass candleholder, paired with a stylish matchbox and a lovely beeswax candle, is top of my wish list, to add that perfect touch of magic."
