It’s nothing you haven’t seen from Céline before, but with the holidays just around the corner, the last thing you want is to get the wrong present come Christmas day. In other words, to help your better half shop better (or in this case, shop correctly), might I present some luxe leather goodies from the French luxury house you can a) screencap and ‘accidentally’ send a WhatsApp along, b) leave your phone browser on this post so it might get spotted or c) just email the entire damn post and just say what you want. Whichever works best for you, really.

So without further ado, here goes. First up, we’ve got the beloved Luggage in its most adorable size thus far, in Nano (shown above). Priced at SGD3900 for this one in creamy Satin leather, it’s also pretty special because it comes with a debossed pattern that shows up only because of the way it is stitched.

Next up, there’s the Tri-Fold, which I’ve covered here before. Functional, well-thought out on the inside and in a good size that’s perfect for the modern working woman, this could be yours for just SGD4200, not a bad price for something you can use most every day at work, if you ask me.

Like the Tri-Fold but want something smaller for casual days out? Then check out the Tri-Fold Clutch (SGD2800), which basically has the same shape as the former but made without its pair of top handles. In its place you find a sling, or in the case of this particular style, a metal chain.

But if you prefer a clutch that’s more structured when it comes to the shape, there’s this, the Frame Clutch that also comes with a metal chain sling. Priced at just SGD1800, it’s made of lambskin leather in a Black/White combo that’s pretty sharp. And easy to match too, especially if your wardrobe is mainly in monochrome hues.

Last but by no means least, my own favourite of late, the Trotteur. In a half-moon shape that’s suddenly all the rage (yes, Phoebe Philo did it first), this one, in Small, is also the cutest. And besides only retailing for just SGD2400, it is also a classic-in-the-making that comes in many other colours as well. In other words, yes. And #happyshopping.
