Some think that the best part of being frugal is getting to indulge in a few luxury items each year. With that in mind, we've pulled together a roundup of our favourite non-tech luxury buys this year. And if you're looking to spend less, don't worry—we've got a small, medium and large priced pick for each item.
-
Diamond Earrings
Diamond earrings are a classic gift appropriate for a woman of any age. It doesn't escape our notice that the earrings from Peoples Jewellers are larger and significantly less expensive than the earrings from Tiffany & Co. That's partly because the colour/clarity of the diamonds from Tiffany & Co is better, but also because you're paying for little blue box experience.
-
Cashmere Hoodie
A cashmere hoodie is basically the ultimate in cozy, casual comfort. We have a pricey option, a budget-friendly buy, and one from J.Jill that is available in traditional and plus sizes; a range of XS-4X all told.
-
Women's Wallet
A luxury list wouldn't be complete without a fancy wallet for day…
-
Metallic Clutch
...and a metallic clutch for night. Any of these options will dress up a little black dress—how much you spend is up to you!
-
Wine Glasses
By our estimation, quality wine glasses will either make your wine taste better or make you think your wine tastes better.
-
Men's Winter Wear
Our favourite pick is the fur-lined ball cap from Canada Goose. It's only $135!
-
High-End Sheets
Depending on your sleep schedule, you spend anywhere from 1/4 to 1/2 of your time in bed. So isn't it time to buy some sheets that aren't printed with Animaniacs? This is a great gift for your girlfriend/boyfriend or spouse, or you can skip the middleman and just buy them for yourself.
-
Men's Watch
Many men shy away from jewellery and wouldn't be particularly happy to get it as a gift. We've got three great loopholes here at three different prices.
-
Men's Dress Shirt
Men's dress shirts from Thomas Pink are world-renowned for quality. They're also a small fortune. We have some more reasonably priced options as well.
-
Kitchen Knives
You can keep this from your gift recipient, but the high-end Henckels knife set from Amazon.com is actually an amazing deal—the list price is over $500 US.
