While you’re knee-deep in gift-buying mode, we’d wager that you have also found yourself picking up some things for yourself along the way. The impulse to shop during the gifting season should also include smart buys that you won’t regret in the coming year. For fashion-savvy individuals, that means timeless bags and shoes with great returns on cost per wear; pieces that are classic and versatile, yet do not look basic at all. If that sounds like what you’re looking for, Gucci’s got you covered.

Ever since Sabato de Sarno took the reins at Gucci and swung the brand right back to clean minimalism, the push to invest in great accessories has become more important than ever. With his runway preposition consisting of ’noughties style mini skirts and simple tops, it’s inevitable that the bags and the shoes need to be the focal points of the ensemble.

With a heritage that spans decades, Gucci has seen many trend cycles come and go. Yet, its accessories are set to endure. The timeless charm lies in their classic appeal, which add a sense of modernity to any outfit.

Take the Blondie bags, for example. The flap style bag with a sling chain gives a ’70s vibe— what more with the updated oversize Gucci insignia adornment. Or the Horsebit ballet flats, which are an update to regular ballet flats. Combine both the bag and shoes in one look, and you’ll get a thoroughly modern ensemble when worn with a t-shirt, stovepipe jeans and blazer combo.
