#01 Gigi Hadid joined
forces with Tommy Hilfiger
for his see-it-buy-it AW16-17
runway collection and together
they created the ultimate
all-ages gift: this nautically
minded silk bandana.
The easiest way
to do Kris Kringle better
is with a crowd-pleasing
drop. We suggest this
South Oz shiraz, which
is as vibrant on the outside
as it is inside thanks to the
work of celebrated artist
David Bromley.
