1. Brixton Jethro Hat, $60
Brixton has mastered the fedora. The moss-colored Jethro is a free-form shaped hat with a wide unfinished brim and feather. The Jethro is intended to be molded and customized to your liking. Fabric texture and shape may vary, so no two hats are exactly alike. This hat makes a statement without saying, "Look at me!" and goes with virtually any color you are wearing. Choose this one or find another from the Stockist's full line of Brixton hats. (CZ)

2. Eberjey Estelle Underwire Bra, $65, & Hipster, $46
This set is dramatic in color, with curve-loving shapes and a mix of striking lace patterns. The underwire bra offers comfortable support and has straps so pretty, you'll want them to peek out from under whatever you wear. The matching low-rise cinched hipster is a must. Contrast satin bow at center front. (CZ)

3. Hand-Lacquered
Jewelry Box, $144
Because you got her something else to put in the box, right? Tabula Rasa's vast selection of one-of-a-kind boxes makes it hard to choose just one. Hand-lacquered, it is a beautiful statement piece to add to any room. Her jewelry is valuable, and it should reside in an equally valuable home. Tabula Rasa also takes care of her correspondence needs, including stationery, fine pens and journals. You'll find any number of unique and beautiful gifts, such as jewelry and fragrances, just to name a few. (LL)

4. Pleated Boot by Walk, $395
These fabulous, slouchy boots, handmade in Israel and comfortable as a down pillow, are sure to be a staple of her wardrobe for years to come. Get creative and dress them up or down. Paletti has it all, from high-end women's fashion, shoes, bags, jewelry, gifts, and a local artisan market to even an espresso bar. (LL)

5. Green Onyx Crystal
Necklace, $355
Onyx crystal from Turkey is surrounded by Swarovski crystals and cultured pearls and comes with a sterling silver clasp. Handmade by famed oil painter, Lanny Barnard, who can now unabashedly call herself a jewelry maker, too. You can never go wrong with a classic pearl necklace because it doesn't follow trends and is always in style. Here you'll find one-of a kind pieces made by Lanny, each made with the artist's intention. Choose from estate jewelry, original art, lighting and European antiques. (CZ)

6. The Alwand Vahan
Bracelet, $1,350
This bracelet goes from day to evening seamlessly. For everyday wear, your beloved can stack this gorgeous bangle made with 14k yellow gold, sterling silver and .08tw in diamonds on top of other bracelets. But it's also great to wear solo for a hot night out on the town. Bennion Jewelers is a Salt Lake City staple, carrying the finest names in jewelry and watches as well as custom pieces. With some of the friendliest staff in town, you'll easily find the perfect gift for both him and her. Its new location on the north side of City Creek Center is sure to impress. (LL)
