Whether for the snow bunny, the perpetual sun-seeker, or those drawn to the world's most extraordinary adventures, these selections from our team encompass every possibility for what could be beneath the Christmas tree this year.

For the Snow Bunny

‍The one who appears pristine from first lift to last run, from après to dinner.

• Barbara Sturm Skincare for Skiing | A certified ski bunny herself, Sturm's formulations are our year-round staples, particularly essential at altitude.
• Chanel Coco Neige Bandana | Quite possibly the accessory for the slopes this season.
• The skis Jacquemus + Lacroix | Jacquemus does it again, but this time it’s ski’s that ooze retro chic.
• The Fusalp Charloy Metal Jacket | Fusalp marries technical excellence with couture, this jacket is no exception.
• WE NORWEGIANS x Markarian Après Ski Sweater | This season's collaboration delivers impeccable attire for apres or getting cosy in the chalet.
• The Jacquemus Mid Yeti Moon Boot | Perfectly impractical, but incredibly chic.
• Cabane Tortin | Whilst impossible to place beneath the tree, this freerider's fantasy perches at 3,000 metres above the millennia-old Tortin glacier. ALS Private can make this happen.

The follower of the sun

It's Euro summer and Caribbean winter.

• Hunza G x Smythson | The collaboration we didn’t expect, two iconic brands come together for the must have journal to match your bikini.
• Slim Aarons Dining on Capri Puzzle | Aarons has captured glamour's essence for decades; we simply adore a puzzle.
• Missoni Beach Towel | The towel has become an unlikely accessory. Missoni does it best.
• The Perfume Story with Azzi Glasser | When summer knows no end, one requires a scent to embody this. Azzi's bespoke perfume service delivers precisely that.
• The Remote Beach BBQ | Imagine fresh-barbecued lobster on a private island where the beach belongs solely to you for the day. It won't fit beneath the tree, yet it will never be forgotten. An experience that elevates any Caribbean escape.

For the one who spends more time at sea than on land

They can circumnavigate the Med, but what adventure awaits next?

The (not so essential) travel essentials for seasoned travellers

They’re in-the-know and have experienced it all before it was even on the map.

• The Steamery | The latest blue and burgundy colour way makes steaming chic, and is an indispensable item on our travel checklist.
