Perfect Gift Ideas for Luxury on a Budget

We’ve all been there. The holiday season is approaching or there’s an important birthday, and you just don’t know what to buy for that special someone in your life. Things get even harder if you’re on a tight budget, as giving a gift that lets someone know how much you care without breaking the bank can be a tall order.

If you want to give a beautiful gift but simply don’t have the financial freedom to splurge, all isn’t lost. There are plenty of purse-friendly options that still look and feel like luxury gifts. These are just a few of the hundreds of fantastic options. Happy shopping! 

Luxury Candles

This is because everyone, yes everyone, loves candles for bath time, dinner time, and all kinds of occasions. However, most people won’t be keen to spend luxury prices on something as simple as a candle. Treat them to a candle or two from a high-end line, and they’ll think of you every time they light it.

Keepsake Watch

Gifts your loved one can keep forever are always a good idea, and a watch is a stylish alternative to jewelry. There are styles available to suit many tastes, from classic leather and gold to sparkly statement pieces. To keep the cost down, check out used Omega watches online.

Perfume or Cologne

For a luxury designer brand gift that doesn’t break the bank, try perfume or cologne. Everyone wants to smell great, and the designer bottle will look great on your vanity or in the bathroom cabinet. What’s more, you can choose your gift based on not only what brands your partner loves, but also how both of you like to smell. The perfect gift!

Designer Dupe

Even if you can’t afford to spend thousands of dollars on an item by Chanel or Balenciaga, you can still get the luxe look with a good fragrance dupe. We don’t mean a fake (that would be illegal), but there are tons of great mid-range brands making products that look very similar to their high-end counterparts. Opt for genuine leather with gold hardware and cool textured finishes for a real style statement.

Splash out on a high-end brand with luxurious packaging and treat the woman you love this year with the perfect red lipstick. Just make sure to ask a member of the store staff if you’re not sure!

Personalized Accessory

Getting something personalized has never been easier. You can add names, initials, or messages to all manner of items (jewelry, bags, wallets, etc.) in just a few clicks. For a timeless accessory, opt for an engraved pocket watch marking a special occasion with a message, initials or significant date. Even if the gift itself isn’t particularly expensive, getting it personalized with something significant to the recipient immediately elevates it from off-the-shelf to very special indeed.
