Fun and festive gift ideas need not be expensive, and these 10 different SLGs are proof of that, all of which come under the SGD500 mark. From cardholders to fancy cases for your AirPods, these stocking stuffers are perfect for your friends, loved ones, or even if you’re planning to give yourself a fancy little treat, just because.

Going in a clockwise direction, you can start with Balenciaga’s Cash Large Long Coin And Card Holder (SGD395) in metallic purple grained calfskin. While it might look rather simple in the front, this functional SLG comes with 5 extra card slots and a long slip pocket tucked at the back, along with a central zip compartment that’s perfect for coins and keys. BALENCIAGA

The Card Holder Daily (SGD305) from Louis Vuitton comes in Damier Azur trimmed with pink, with a simple V-shaped cutout, one that’s small enough to fit within tiny bags or even slipped into your dress pocket whenever you’re out and about. LOUIS VUITTON

Gucci’s GG Marmont Card Case (SGD360) in Hibiscus Red is another classic favourite in chevron-quilted leather, with 2 slots front and back more than sufficient for your ID and important credit cards. GUCCI

If you need (and prefer) a longer option, meet the Zipped Compact Card Holder in Flamingo Pink (SGD485) from Celine, this time making a return in grained calfskin with gold metallic hardware. Slightly bigger at 13 cm by 7.5 cm, this bright pink SLG will be able to store more items like cash and receipts within the vertical zipped pocket at the side. CELINE

Not exactly a cardholder but more for coins and keys, the Bastia Change Purse (SGD380) in Blue Nuit Evercolor calfskin leather is an ideal option for both the boys and girls. The origami style is a signature Hermès design that has withstood the test of time and trends, and the Bastia is one that you can count on for daily use. HERMÈS

Rimowa has leather SLGs? Yes, of course. This particular cardholder (SGD280) is from the Never Still collection, with the exciting Sand Beige Mango colour keeping it eye-catching even from afar. RIMOWA

Not an ordinary piece for sure, meet the Puzzle Magnet Cardholder (SGD450) which will attach ‘magically’ to the back of your mobile device. Think of it as a quick access SLG to store 2 important cards within the quirky Loewe Puzzle cut-out design. LOEWE

Planning to do your bid for the environment? You can consider the I am a Plastic Bag Eyes Earphones Pouch (GBP104) from Anya Hindmarch made from recycled water bottles. Hook it onto your bag or on your belt loop so it stays by your side at all times. ANYA HINDMARCH

If you love the Olympia but wish it came in a smaller size, Burberry has the Vintage Check Cotton Olympia Coin Case (SGD420) in Archive Beige. Each pouch is sold together with a dog clip strap, though you can always opt to tuck it in and use it as a simple coin purse. BURBERRY

Not only is it super fun with the embroidered radish motif, but Coach’s Round Coin Case (SGD220) is also pretty bang-for-your-buck in polished pebble leather. At 10.5 cm wide, you can use it to store everything from loose change to random bits and bobs. COACH
