A lot of us only know Fossil to be a good watch brand, but it’s time we also got more acquainted with their fun, chic, and quality leather goods are now also available in the Philippines. Fossil’s Fall 2015 fun collections make them the perfect gifting destination. Read on and view the galleries for investment watches, bags, purses, and other leather accessories that you can get for the nearest and dearest to you—male or female—all in one shop. These days, we really need to shop in stores where we can buy gifts for most people on our list because, well, malls are just so crowded, and traffic is at its worst. We have to be smarter about gift shopping!

For your mom:

Get your chic mom a stylish yet super functional (Her) Boyfriend Watch, characterized by simplicity of good design and details borrowed from menswear sensibilities. Updated with a leather strap in cedar, the chronograph watch is set to become the most-worn seasonal essential.

The Perfect Boyfriend comes in a toasted almond leather strap with rose gold dial, and a narrower stainless steel strap with soft taupe dial. The limited edition piece is in yellow gold with camouflage accents. The ultra feminine Jacqueline comes in two styles: one with a navy leather strap with white and rose gold face, and another with an olive leather strap with stainless steel and black face.

Also in olive leather is the Chelsey multifunction. There’s also the fresh, feminine Tailor with a seven-link bracelet, classic steel plating, and an eye-catching spirographic dial. The Modern D-Luxe, meanwhile, comes with a wide cedar leather strap fastened by a D-ring attachment, a limited edition with only 754 pieces produced.

For your dad and boyfriend/husband:

Your dad would love (His) Everyday Watch, like the time-honored Grant collection, inspired by the simplicity of vintage timepieces. The Grant watch has a classic appeal updated with modern Roman numeral markers and materials like stainless steel and soft leather. Bits, bolts, and rich brown shades inspired by aged bourbon barrels are what makes the Grant watch stick, made to get better with time.

Meanwhile, your sports-loving Hubby might like the athletic appeal of Del Rey Sport, done in sleek black leather with rose gold case, as well as the Nate chronograph that comes in stainless steel and acetate with camo trimmings. There’s also the Modern Machine, which capitalizes on the military trend with a camo-inflected steel casing and brown leather strap. It comes in more classic colors: black stainless steel and oak barrel leather.

For your bestfriend and sister:

The women who know all your deepest secrets and are with you through thick and thin deserve functional leather pieces they can use everyday or when they travel, to always remember you by. They might like a (Her) Crossbody, which includes the Preston small flap in dark blue and inca gold. Its details and standout hardware are inspired by vintage binocular cases and camera bags from the ‘50s and ‘60s. It’s a mix of modern lines with an expandable structure, zip-around gussets, and crossbody strap. Perfect for travel, the Preston satchel can take her from day to night, work to weekend. For longer getaways, there’s the Preston weekender in soft black-pebbled leather.

Other pieces that they can use everyday are the Haven bucket bag in brown and black, the Emerson satchel in soft glazed maroon leather, and the brown Vickery backpack with functional pockets and drawstring for securing valuables in place. Subtly slouchy for a casual yet effortlessly classy vibe, all these crossbodies also go well with travel accessories, which you can also pick out from Fossil. Take your pick from the black Fairfax flap clutch, hot pink Sydney zip clutch, or Penguin coin pouch—which is so cute, I can die! Something they can definitely use for travel or daily trips to the gym is the classic hot pink travel bag where they can stash their toiletries. Or, for something smaller, get them an inca gold yellow wristlet for their phones and bills, or a luxe leather passport case.

For your brother or male best friend:

Help upgrade your brother or male BFF’s style by getting him a (His) Workbag. Why not get him a carryall like the highly practical Aiden messenger bag, which is sleek and professional without being too serious? Classic, rich leather with curious details like a removable shoulder strap and phone pockets make it his ideal travel companion for any adventure. He might also like the Estate backpack, which gives off a relaxed look, with expertly placed pockets and a space big enough to hold laptops and tablets, perfect for either work or play.

For something smaller—yet you know he’s averse to the murse (man-purse)—the Gordon khaki foldover tote just might change his mind. It’s a great accessory for carrying his essentials, documents, and gadgets securely. Or, to be on the safe side, especially if he’s a jet-setter, why not just get him the Curious passport case, travel pouch, and/or framed shaved kit in leather olives and browns.
