Maxine’s Christmas gift guide: her picks for holiday presents
I love Christmas for a number of different reasons, but one of the biggest is because I love to give gifts. Finding the perfect present for every person is like a game to me… and the reward is seeing their face light up with surprise!
I’ve compiled a Christmas gift guide that I think mums, dads, best friends, and more will love, full of picks that will make whoever you give it to smile!
Christmas gift guide for her:
Spa gift voucher: The women in your life deserved to spoiled. That's why I think one of the best gifts to give is spa gift voucher. Treat her to a lovely, relaxing day... you know she probably needs it!
Mani/pedi: If a spa is a little out of your price range, a gift voucher for a facial or manicure/pedicure will also be appreciated. Go with her and have a day out on the town!
Jewellery: Who doesn't love jewellery? A gorgeous bracelet, a simple necklace, and a lovely pair of earrings always go down a treat.
Scarf: You can never have too many scarves. A gorgeous scarf is the perfect way for her to accessorise this winter. There's also so many options: a pashmina doubles as a shawl while a big chunky knit is on-trend. Go the extra mile and get some matching gloves, too.
A package full of their favourite things: This is a lovely present, as it shows that you've given it some thought. Put together her must-have items, be it a book, her favourite bottle of wine, or her go-to snacks.
Spend some time together: Time is one of the best gifts of all. Whether it's going out to dinner, hitting the cinema, an afternoon tea, or even a weekend getaway, this gift will go down a treat with your loved ones. While they'll love their other gifts, I bet this one will be the one she looks back on and remembers forever.
Christmas gift guide for him:
Their favourite cologne: Top up his signature scent with a bottle of his favourite cologne or aftershave. Or perhaps the one that sends your pulse racing! You know that this is a gift he'll definitely use!
A new wallet: There's never a bad time to switch out a wallet. Chances are, he's probably using an old, tatty thing and would really appreciate a nice, new one to keep everything in place.
Cocktail, beer, or wine set: If he likes to host, then why not give him a cocktail set? He can mix up his favourite drinks for everyone. If he's more of a beer guy, a pack of craft beer will go down a treat. And, if he prefers the finer wines, a nice selection of wine and cheese will be much appreciated.
Robe & PJs: Christmas is the perfect time to update his leisurewear. He'll appreciate a comfy pair of PJ pants or a cosy robe on these long winter nights.
Grooming kit: Grooming is all the rage at the moment. If he has a beard, he'll love a shaving and beard care kit. You can already buy one, or you can DIY your own kit with your favourite products.
Headphones: A nice set of headphones are the perfect present for men who like to listen to music, podcasts, and books. Bluetooth enabled ones are ideal as they don't require any wires or fuss. This is a great option for men who use public transport to commute into work!
Spend time together: Just like we wrote above, spending time together is the best gift. Take him to his favourite gig, football game, or even to the cinema.
