Perfect Christmas Gifts for Ladies & Gents

Have you started your Christmas shopping yet?! Nope? Don't panic we still have a few weeks before the big day. This weekend we finally made a start on our daughter's Christmas shopping but now we have to think about all the adults in the family, some are so difficult to buy for - my husband particular. But for those who don't have a clue where to start I have put together a few Christmas ideas for both ladies and gents. I hope my ideas will help you on your way...

Ladies first...

Whether you are shopping for your mother, sister, wife, or friend I have rounded up my favourite ideas that meet a variety of price points. I have always thought that buying gifts for women are far easier than for men, but even us ladies can admit we get stumped sometimes so here goes.


From left to right

1. The Chocolate and Gin Collection, £20 from Hotel Chocolat. - Want to treat your special women in your life this Christmas? Yes, you can do this with chocolate and a collection of gin inspired recipes. For that extra special touch include a free personal card just to say you care.

2. "I love you" Disc Charm and Bracelet, £140, from Tiffany & co. - What better way to say I love you that with a beautiful bracelet in a lovely blue box. All women love a piece of jewellery, but before purchasing make sure you know her taste and colour preferences as it can vary between ladies. I do think that Tiffany & co do the most adorable and dainty jewellery but they do offer more statement pieces too. But whichever you decide opening that little blue box will bring a smile to their face, trust me gents!!!

3. GHD White Plantinum Styler, £165, from GHD - Go and treat your lady to the ultimate styler that will give them great, healthy-looking hair without any compromise. I am a big fan of GHDs and they are always bringing out great innovative products, the platinum collection looks so great.

4. Strawberry Festive Gift, £18, from The Body Shop - I can never get enough of The Body Shop I love their products and I am sure that I am not the only one. This year they have released products that have a festive feel about them, I would love this strawberry scented 'feel so good' collection that has lots of goodies for everyone to enjoy. A perfect gift.

5. Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Eau De Parfum, £48.50, from The Fragrance Shop - You can never go wrong with a perfume as the perfect gift for Christmas. Every year my husband gets me a perfume but he buys me a different one each time and I have loved every single one of them, he knows what I like. I love this fresh oriental scent and it comes in a beautiful pink bottle and would be great for any lady in your life.

6. Fiorelli Black 'Mia' Bag, £44.25 (REDUCED FROM £59), from Debenhams - This beautiful bag is on my Christmas list *HINT HINT HUSBAND* and would be the perfect handbag to add to any bag collection.

For the Gents...

Is it just me, or does the shopping get harder each year? Whether its my husband or brother I always find myself struggling to find gifts that I think they genuinely would love. I don't really want to get them just anything and I want their faces to light up Christmas morning. I have come across some great ideas this year and no matter what man they are for I think they will truly enjoy them.


From left to right

1. Braun Cruzer 6 Face, £42, from John Lewis - The 3-in-1 shaver, styler and trimmer turns any facial hair into a stylish beard, giving you a close shave, neat trim or defined edges. I am sure that the man in your life would be grateful for one of these. There are other grooming gadgets available from the Braun Cruzer range from Cruzer Body, Cruzer Beard & Head and the Cruzer Precision - to cater to all needs.

2. Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet Eau De Toilette, £39, from The Fragrance Shop - I always like to get my husband an aftershave for Christmas and his favourite has to be this Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet as its a bold, strong and masculine fragrance.

3. Emporio Armani Chronograph Watch, £129, from The Watch Shop - I am in love with this classic style and simplistic design as it can be worn casually or saved for best. To make it personal you could get it engraved with a name, a special date or just a loving message. I have ordered from The Watch Shop before and I cannot recommend them enough, great communication, fast shipping and great quality. I got my Dad a watch for his 60th birthday and I was pleasantly surprised that his gift arrived within two days.

4. RFID Signal Blocking Leather Wallet, £34.99, from Presents For Men - I never heard of these signal blocking wallets before but they contain a shield that prevents any scanning for personal information. This would make a great gift for a partner, relative or a friend that is a budget friendly, it would also make a great stocking filler.

5. Elemis Perfect Man Collection, £49, from Elemis - I don't know why men don't look after their skin, but it is one of missions to get my husband in a regular skin care routine. Perhaps a gift such as this will help him in the right direction. This gift comes with a range of products that help to firm, sooth and hydrate their skin - you will get £77 worth of products for the price of £49, what a bargain.

6. Sony Headphones, £29.99, from John Lewis - If any of your guys love their music these headphones are going to change the way they listen to music. Not only do they feature powerful, incredible clear sound they have fixed two-sided cord with AP remote for hands free calls. These are also available in a range of colours and I think that there are so budget friendly, what could be better?
