Chan Luu Printed Silk Scarf
Scarves were shown all over the international Fall 2019 runways, making them one of the biggest accessory trends of the season. Chan Luu’s printed silk versions in jewel tone hues are both beautiful and versatile; she’ll wear them all year long, whether artfully tied around her neck, as a stylish headscarf, or even wrapped around the crown of a wide-brimmed hat during the summer months. $125, Blush, 4305 W. 44th Ave., 720-639-2575, shop-blush.com; and Rebel, 5910 S. University Blvd., 720-283-1004
Adorned Welded Bracelet or Ring
For a twist on a traditional jewelry stocking stuffer, gift her one that’s both modern and permanent, like a welded bracelet or ring by Adorned. Literally welded onto the wrist or finger, these delicate chains, wire bangles, and chain rings come in a variety of metals, including 18-karat yellow or rose gold, as well as sterling silver. Plus, you can personalize a piece with initials or gemstones like champagne or black diamonds and even sapphires to give your gift some long-lasting sparkle and shine. Prices start at $58, CLP Jewelry, 1464 S. Broadway, 303-733-7986, clpjewelry.com
That's only $1 per issue!
Luxeire Turtleneck Tank
Gifting a wardrobe essential usually means a box with a boring cotton T-shirt inside. Not so with Luxeire, a line of weightless foundation pieces perfect for wearing under delicate vintage or designer clothing or to avoid the itchy feel of wool and cashmere sweaters. Cut in a soft, quick drying, and breathable Italian Lycra/nylon fabric, styles include a sexy, long-sleeve V-neck and reversible scoop neck top, but our favorite for the winter season is the must-have turtleneck tank. $88, Covered, 2353 E. Third Ave., 303-993-5509, coveredcherrycreek.com and Mariel, 3000 E. Third Ave., #8, 303-623-1151, marielboutique.com
Frame Après Ski Sweater
Have a skier in the family? Pick her up one of Frame’s bold, graphic sweaters. The luxury denim brand has a mini-collection of wool and cashmere ski sweaters emblazoned with everything from “Ski Bunny” to “Après Ski” for the girl who will be shredding the slopes—or just having hot toddies in the lodge—all winter long. $295 each, Bazar, 2525 15th St., 303-593-0494, denverbazar.com
360 Cashmere Fingerless Gloves
Animal print is always on trend, which is why we love these cashmere leopard-print fingerless gloves by 360 Cashmere. They’ll keep her hands cozy and warm, while leaving her fingertips free for delicate tasks—like texting. $175, Perch, 2606 E. 3rd Ave., 720-381-0290, and 122 E. Meadow Dr., Vail, 970-688-5947, perchvail.com
Quilted Koala Cosmetics Bag
A chic makeup bag to house all of her beauty essentials is a must-have. Give her one that will start her day of right, with a playful “Badass” or “Fearless” cosmetic bag by Quilted Koala. The bold graphics and classic prints—cotton camouflage or wool plaid—make these beauty bags fun, yet still timeless. $69–$89, Garbarini, 239 Detroit St., 303-333-8686, garbarinishop.com
Eberjey Knit Slipper Socks
Toasty slippers are always a good stocking stuffer idea for cold winter mornings, but Eberjey’s knit slipper socks are a cuter, cozier option. Pick them up in winter white, or that millennial favorite hue, blush pink. $38, Dragonfly, 3615 W. 32nd Ave., 303-433-6331, shopdragonflydenver.com
Kate Maller Moon Phase Studs
What girl doesn’t want to find a pair of gold earrings in her stocking? If you’re gifting jewelry this holiday season, choose a jeweler who sources fair-mined gold—that’s gold that comes from small-scale mines and has been mined responsibly—like local jeweler Kate Maller. Her moon phase studs are a mismatch set of one full moon and one crescent moon made of fair-mined, 18-karat gold fused with 18-karat gold dust to give these delicate baubles the look of the moon’s crater-filled surface. $255, Kate Maller, 3450 W. 32nd Ave., katemaller.com
