We all have at least one person on our holiday list that may feel a little intimidating to shop for. You know the one: expensive taste and high expectations. You value their style opinions and always come to them for outfit inspo, but when it comes to giving them the perfect gift, you may feel a little lost. How do you find a luxe gift without breaking the bank?
Well, donāt fret. The best part about StockX is the live marketplace model. Prices ebb and flow on the site, which means you can find that coveted luxury item in the smartest (and more affordable) way possible. All you need to do is be proactive, constantly checking your favorite brands and products until you find an ask that fits within your ideal budget. Itās one of my top skills (and hobbies), I must say. I am always checking the asks and past sales to see which favorite luxe products are bound to sell at lower prices (proof: I just got a Prada Cleo Bag for an incredible below retail price).Ā
So if thereās too many things on your holiday shopping to-do list, Iām here to help with the luxurious heavy lifting. Iāve rounded up the top below retail luxe finds so all you need to do is shop. Call it a winter dream.
OFF-WHITE Out Of Office OOO Low Tops
The OFF-WHITE Out Of Office OOO Low Tops are the perfect luxe gift for the people on your list who love both streetwear and high fashion. Released in 2022, the sneakers are an iconic style from the brand. The shoe features OFF-WHITEās signature design elements, including the zip tie, bold typography, and instantly recognizable arrow motif. I love the low-top silhouette for a sleek and modern look. This sneaker is usually sold out, so the below retail price on StockX is a must-have find for the holiday season.
Gucci Bifold Wallet
Wallets are a smart category to tap into the luxury goods catalog without breaking the bank. Most brands have a wide selection of options to choose from, with styles that still include their premium materials and recognizable design elements. The Gucci Bifold Wallet is the perfect example. Crafted from MicroGuccissima leather, this wallet is the epitome of Quiet Luxury. I love how the Gucci logo is displayed in a patterned monogram imprinted within the leather (aka the āMicroGuccissimaā) giving the wallet a luxurious texture on the exterior. The interior features one bill compartment and six card slots. Itās a stylish yet functional choice that looks expensive but currently hits below retail.
Palm Angels Classic Logo Print T-shirt
You can never go wrong with a classic style from a favorite streetwear brand. The Palm Angels Classic Logo Print T-Shirt is currently below retail on StockX, making this find a trendy choice for the luxe street stylers in your life. The Palm Angels logo emblazoned across the back makes a style statement while the relaxed fit of the shirt takes the logomania moment from loud to relaxed and effortlessly cool. The front collar also features a small Palm Angels logo in the classic font that feels subtle enough to not feel overdone. Itās a gift that will impress even the hardest to shop for on your list.
Saint Laurent Court Classic SL/06 Low
I have been trying to get my hands on these sneakers for quite some time now. They seem to always make it on the top of my holiday wish list every year, but are sold out before I add to cart. The Saint Laurent Court Classic sneakers are an in-demand style from the luxury brand and for good reason. I love the simplicity in the design, effortlessly blending minimalism with elegance. The handwritten Saint Laurent logo on the side of the shoe adds a playful and casual touch to a typically edgy label. It feels unexpected yet still effortlessly cool and sophisticated. The distressed cream canvas material makes these luxurious sneakers feel casual for everyday wear. With a below retail price on StockX, this is definitely the year I wonāt be missing out on this iconic sneaker.Ā
Burberry Letter Graphic Cotton Blend Zip Hoodie
Ever since Daniel Lee took over the creative realm at Burberry, my obsession for the British heritage brand has been slowly growing. Iāve followed Daniel Lee at Bottega Veneta and fell in love with his modern quirky aesthetic. He invented that āBottega greenā shade and took the intrecciato leather to new heights with his designs (Cassette Bag and Lido Sandals to name a few). So safe to say, I canāt wait to see how he revives Burberry by playing into its history while still making it feel fresh (his je ne sais quoi). To prepare for the Burberry renaissance, tap into the recent archives with the Leather Graphic Cotton Blend Zip Hoodie. Crafted from a premium cotton blend, the hoodie features the classic Burberry checkered pattern in the interior of the hood for a subtle nod to luxury. The leather graphic B on the chest modernizes the British brand, making it a standout piece that will elevate any casual wardrobe.Ā
