Designed to energize, hydrate, and soothe the skin on your face and neck, this ultra-rich yet surprisingly lightweight moisturizer will have your giftee looking (and feeling) refreshed and revitalized come the new year.
Double Gancio Suede Belt, Ferragamo
The holidays are a time when we could all use an extra hole in our belts, but what about a new one entirely? This supple mid-brown suede belt from Ferragamo features the brand’s iconic Gancio motif in the form of a gunmetal brass buckle, adding a touch of style to this everyday essential.
