The holiday gift guide
Lindsay’s choice
Isabel Borland five gem pale pink sapphire cigar band ring, $4450
I chose this gorgeous Isabel Borland band because it’s understated yet captivates you with each detail. I dare you to try it on and not fall in love.
My name is Lindsay and most of you know me by now from the fact I’ve been with relish for an amazing 12 years.
When I’m not working I am with my boys, Ryker and Gunner, most always at the hockey rink.
Things I like: Maine, Patriots, fires, and tequila.
Things I don’t like: unsweetened coffee and overcooked steak.
Let Lindsay help you choose a gift for anyone - or everyone - on your list…

Jesse’s choice
Khrisjoy puffer jacket, $1895
I picked the Khrisjoy coat for a number of reasons. It’s an easy, oversized fit and can fit a range of body types, so it makes for a great gift. It’s also super warm.
However, I really like that the brand was started by a stylist who picked one thing to design: coats. They were meant to stylishly reflect her rebellious attitude as a child and go against every terrible boring coat she was forced to wear.
The straps say “HangoverClub”.
We have different colors.
No store remotely close has them.
Come buy one!
Hi, my name is Jesse and I have been at relish for about 3 years.
Although I am from North Carolina, I have always had strong interest in fashion. My mom was a seamstress and pattern maker in NYC, and I’ve been taking style advice from Pharrell and Kanye since 2004. I studied fashion design in school and all my past experiences have been in garment construction. I came to relish after attempting to start my own accessory line SALVO, realizing I still had a lot to learn.
Food is another strong interest of mine. When not at relish, I am out trying all the cool new restaurants in DC, cooking, or watching some food show on Netflix.
Come work with Jesse to find a gift that’s as much fun to give as to receive

Laura’s choice
While these Parts of Four necklaces are a little more punk rock than my usual taste in jewelry, I’ve found myself wearing my champagne quartz pendant constantly this fall.
I love the edge it gives to a plain top, and have played with different ways to wear the chain - long, doubled up, or knotted somewhere in the middle.
They’re even better when you layer a few together!
Parts of Four quartz necklaces, $725 - $950
Hi, I’m Laura. After a decade working in brand strategy in London & NYC, I moved home to DC in 2016 to join the team at relish.
My style is definitely rooted in classic European tailoring, which six years living in the UK helped to solidify. But I firmly believe that tailoring is at its best when mixed with a ripped jean, or a chunky boot, or some other surprising twist.
When I’m not at the store, you can find me chasing after my precocious 3-year-old daughter, and trying to throw together a good dinner party for friends. I’m currently out on maternity leave with our baby boy, who made his debut a couple of weeks ago!
Visit us on Cady’s Alley to mix and match our Parts of Four jewelry collection - and let us wrap it all up with our signature orange bow
If you can’t make it in, give the team a call at 202 333 5343 and we’d be happy to work with you over the phone
William’s choice
Sacai mini bag, $295
I picked this Sacai bag because I like pieces that play with ideas of proportion and utility. This bag is not a carry-all for the busy mom, but more for the individual who just wants a little something extra: a special place to store a few select items.
My name is William and I’ve been working at relish for over a year now.
My taste and style is mainly influenced by the music I listen to, electronic and rap, classes I took on color theory and costume history, as well as authors like Margaret Atwood, Philip Pullman, and W. David Marx. I also speak Italian and I’ve lived, worked, and studied in Sorrento, Urbino, Florence, and Monte di Procida.
I’m a heavy fashion researcher in my free time and I actively read all sorts of magazines and articles relevant to fashion. I believe accessories are crucial for creating a defined look which is why I’m always wearing Chrome Hearts.
Come by the store and let William help you find the perfect gift (and wrap it up in our signature style)
