My 58-Year-Old Aunt Buys Whatever I Tell Her—30 Items I Want Her to Splurge On

My aunt and I bond over many things, but somehow, our conversations always come back to shopping. My aunt’s wardrobe stood out to me even at a young age and now that I am almost 30, I am often surprised at how similar our styles have become. Naturally, we’re always sending each other our most recent or pending purchases. Tack on the fact that it’s basically my job to shop for a living and you can guarantee that between the both of us, it can feel like we’ve seen it all. 

Because of this, when I send my stylish aunt something I deem noteworthy, she usually listens. Without exploiting her too much, she also has a higher spending budget than I do which makes her lifestyle much more fun to shop for than mine. Ahead, I took the time to curate a list of the best luxury shopping finds that I am saying are 100% worth the splurge. From designer handbags to current It items, this list is filled with everything a shopping fiend would love and I’ll be sure to keep you posted on which items she actually buys.
