The A-list interior designer Mark Cutler shares what is in for luxury home decor in 2015.

Let's be frank. No one needs anything but well-crafted pieces made of durable, refined materials are the hallmark of conscious consumerism and is the antidote to cheap throw-away fashion. When giving, go for a top luxury brand that your loved ones will adore. Case in point our covet list below which will inspire awe those gifted. For the ladies, Fendi, the Italian family owned brand known for furs, and their infamous 90's baguette, new it offering is the "peekaboo". This one in painted python. Or if you're yearning for an American classic then do Tiffany &Co's crocodile satchel. It will have a place in your bag museum for years. It's not a cliche' that diamonds are forever and the venerable brand Cartier's diamond and emerald secret watch is a one of a kind show piece fit for a literal queen. Chanel's lion time-piece is pure lavishness on a wrist. Both are more of an investment that pure purchase. If the lady has an unusually spicy style then go for these turquoise and emerald Chicuita dangles from deGrisogono. They too are one of a kind but will make an ensemble look drop dead gorgeous.

Our picks are this brightly-hued chubby from Frenchman Yves Solomon and the of-the-moment must have, the fur vest; this one from Timo Weiland. A watch is a sign of power and style for important men and you can't go wrong with Swiss watch-maker, F. P. Journe's chronometre' or the Roman jeweler, Bulgari's platinum Octo. Both have a masculine gentility that he will love and will become the go-to time-piece in his watch cabinet. Salvatore Ferragamo's lux crocodile sneaker is great for that business titan in your life who needs to look pulled together even when he plays.
