It's December which means it's nearly Christmas and I'm
finally allowed to be excited about this time of year, (I've been looking
forward to it since August.) I thought I would compile a list of Christmas
present inspiration whether it's for yourself, dad, boyfriend, mum or someone
you have for secret Santa. I hope that my list gives you some of the answers
that you've been looking for. I've popped links underneath the pictures to make
it that much easier to shop. I really hope you like this post as for some
reason it took me ages to put this altogether, I think I might have got
distracted by all the Black Friday discounts over the weekend!
My Picks/For the girls:
1 - Camera, 2 - Topshop sequin skirt, 3 - Not that kind of girl book by Lena Dunham 4 - Charlotte Tilbury's Dolce Vita eyeshadow pallete, 5 - Real Technique brushes & 6 - River island shoes
I'm pretty much obsessed with everything on this list and
I'm sure any girl who loves fashion & beauty would be happy to receive any
of these gifts. I’m a bit of a magpie so this section list is looking very
sparkly however I think it's allowed, it is Christmas. If you're feeling very
generous this Christmas, I think this camera would make such a great gift for
someone who loves their photography. I first spotted this camera on
super-blogger The Londoner's site, if it's good enough for her then it's
definitely good enough for me! However, if that's quite not in your budget then
these make-up brushes from Real Techniques will make any girls Christmas. I
really love the silver handles, I think they'd look great in a cute mason jar
amongst all your other brushes.
For Boys:
1- The Simpsons notebook, 2 - Richard adoyade book, 3 - Tom Dixon candle, 4 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle keyring, 5- Mclaggan Smith mug and 6 - Rapha travel set.
Despite having a dad and a boyfriend, I still find shopping
for men/boys quite tricky. I often find things that I would like and then
realising that I shouldn't be shopping for myself. I've tried to cater to
everyone here and I think I've found a few gems. If you're looking for a cheap
stocking filler then this Ninja turtle keyring from Lego is so cute and great
little gesture.
I have included a few pricer items including this candle. I
know traditionally you wouldn't buy a
man a candle but this one by Tom Dixon is pretty special, and wouldn't look out
of place in any bachelor pad.
My dad is a bit of a cycling nut so I know a
little bit about what cyclists like. I gave him this Rapha set last year and he
really loved it. I think the packaging is really stylish and I've heard the
products inside aren't too bad either, so this is a must for men who are into
cycling.
Gifts under £15:
1 - Star bright bath melt from Lush £3.50 each, 2 - Accessorize bracelet £15, 3 - Eyelashes by Cheryl £6, 4 - This Works duo £22, 5 - Topshop highlighter £9, and 5 - Notebooks by Paper rifle £13.95
Every year you're bound to be involved with a secret Santa
of some sort so I've picked some budget friendly gifts which I'm sure your
recipient will love! If not these gifts would make great stocking fillers. I've
tried to pick gifts that were all under £20 but the this works duo was just too
much of a good offer to resist.
I actually own the
ring that matches this gorgeous bracelet from Accessorize and I absolutely love
it, it's so sparkly and I receive so many compliments so this bracelet is sure
to create a similar effect.
As a bit of a make-up junkie I'm always on the hunt for the
next best highlighter and I've had my eye on this Topshop one for a while. If
you're friend loves make-up as much as me I'm sure this gift will be a massive
hit!
