Hey everyone - Are we looking forward to Christmas? Who has their tree's up already? Have you started on your Christmas shopping? I started some of mine online a few weeks ago and then last week Mum and I took a day off work to spend the day shopping together. Last year I created three different gift guides, one for her click here, one for him click here and lastly one which was gifts £20 and under which you can read if you click here. However, this year I asked on my instagram - so follow me there if you don't already @emmapavier and it was highly requested to just focus on for her and for him with a range of different budgets and these gifts could be for your mum, dad, grandparents, brother, sister, partners etc! I hope you enjoy the 2021 gift guide series!
£20 and under:
Jones & James Luxury Retreat Set | The Range £12.99
Gift sets are always a winner and will vary depending on the person you are buying for! I saw this one when we was shopping in The Range for Christmas decorations and thought it would be a lovely gift as you also get a beautiful bag which you could use for make-up/skincare too. This set includes - a body lotion, bubble bath, body scrub, shower gel, hand cream and body butter.
Crystal Beauty Box on Swivel | The Range £7.99 (was originally £9.99)
If you have a make-up lover on your list of people to buy for this Christmas, I highly recommend make-up storage or even a make-up bag actually! It would be good to see what storage they already have - as I've had the clear acrylic storage holders before and you can usually get them from Amazon. Now, I have the Alex 9 drawers from IKEA and a vanity desk but if I did want to display any make-up and brushes on my desk I would love this!
The Dressing Table LED Vanity Mirror | Home Bargains £14.99
I actually own this and love it!! I've spoken about it before on my Instagram stories as it's a bargain and looks really nice on a dressing table. I have been looking at some bigger versions of vanity mirrors online after seeing them in some of the influencers video's - so that may, or may not be something on my wish list but I do like all of the different settings this one has.
What a cute gift idea - I think this would be perfect for a stocking filler, a little complimentary gift for a friend/family member or even possibly a work colleague if you're doing secret santa? The mug is really cute and festive and again a fantastic price for what you get! The next gift idea I am going to show you if you know a hot choccy lover would be perfect to give them too!
Hot Chocolate Station | Home Bargains £4.99
If you have a hot chocolate lover in the family to buy for, this would make a lovely gift - they can reuse the jars too. When we took my nephews Christmas shopping last weekend, we took them to Costa and they loved it! So for my older nephew as he is a HUGE hot chocolate fan and Costa is his fave, I'm going to buy him a gift card for Costa as an extra little pressie!
Long Hot Water Bottle | Home Bargains £9.99
I saw this when I was recently in Home Bargains, and I loved it! I thought this would be a perfect gift for someone who loves to stay super warm and cosy - and a great price too!! This would also make for a good secret santa gift, I know so many of my friends and family members would be super happy to receive this - it's packaged lovely too.
For his Nan this year we have brought her some puzzles, as she enjoys completing these in the evenings so again, I think for parents/grandparents this is a really good idea. You can get so many different styles of puzzles, some easier with less pieces and some really complex. I believe last year she actually got a personalised puzzle which made into a picture of her grandchildren which was really nice, I'm not sure where that was from though!
I've also seen two other cute gift idea from Marks & Spencer which I wanted to include as they are personalised gift ideas, and everyone loves something personalised! One for just £5 which is a personalised alphabet coaster linked here and the other is a personalised eye silk mask which looks absolutely stunning and is just £15 - what a lovely pressie! Linked here.
Another lovely gift (especially if you have a couple to buy for) or unsure what to get your parents... maybe even aunt/uncle would be a Moet & Chandon personalised bottle of champagne from Selfridges & Co there were two to choose from and one comes in at £20!!! Linked here.
£50 and under:
Olaplex Hair Treatments | Look Fantastic £26 each (my faves - no. 3 & no. 8)
Now this gift idea is for someone who often gets their hair done, and is looking to treat their hair to some nice products, Olaplex is on the more expensive range of hair care - but in my opinion, the products work really well and have been personally recommended to me by my hairdresser and the ladies that do my extensions. I have no. 3, no. 8, no.6 and the shampoo and love them all and have noticed a big improvement in my hair. As you can see I'm running low too - so, Santa, this would be a great gift for me! We love receiving products that we would usually buy ourselves!
When we moved into our first home, something I really wanted to buy was a coffee table book (to read as well as for aesthetics/decor) and we got the Dior one from Costco (under £30) and then the smaller Chanel book which was from Amazon which was under £10! I know a lot of people who have these including lot's of other designer brands and love them.
Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation | Look Fantastic RRP £43 - currently £36.55
I treated myself to this foundation in the recent sales as it was a bargain price from the usual and it was highly recommended by a lot of influencers I follow on Instagram, and their make up always looks so flawless so I thought I would get it whilst I could save £ on it. The amount of amazing reviews this had really sold it to me as well, it comes in lovely packaging too and looks very luxurious - so either this one, or the Charlotte Tilbury foundation would be a fab pressie!
Charlotte Tilbury Foundation | Charlotte Tilbury £34
This has quickly became my favourite foundation this year! I know lot's of my friends and family also really like Charlotte Tilbury make up - it comes packaged beautifully too so would make a very nice luxurious gift. I also love their bronzer too, and want to try so many other products of theirs as all the reviews I've seen are fantastic!
Some other ideas I spotted whilst looking on Marks and Spencer which may be a good gift idea for her too under £50 is a personalised dressing gown they have a couple to choose from (including ones for him) and they look so snuggly and cosy and are £35 linked here. I also spotted on their website some personalised women's cotton modal pyjamas which look so comfy again and these are £35 linked here.
£100 and under:
Blowout Brush Pro | Bondi Boost - £67.99 (AD - PR Product)
I was very kindly gifted the Blowout Brush Pro from Bondi Boost for their Cyber weekend sale and I have been using it every week since I received it and absolutely love it! It is a hair tool everyone needs in their life - so easy to use, can be used to style either wet or dry hair and it's also a really great price too for a hair tool - so highly recommend from me!
Kora Cream Ribbed Seamless Strappy Jumpsuit & Jimena Mocha Balloon Sleeve Knitted Cardigan | Missy Empire - £26 (Jumpsuit) & £28 Cardigan)
I am very fussy with clothes however, I feel something like a nice jumpsuit and cardigan you cannot really go wrong with - you can dress them up or down, and it's something they'll get a lot of wear out of. I've brought my Mum some clothes as part of her Christmas present this year which I think she'll love and whenever we get eachother clothes for Christmas, we instantly want to change out of our outfit and put them on. If you are wanting a safer bet - I'd suggest buying someone pyjamas or a dressing gown if you're not too sure on their style!
Gym Trainers & Clothes!! - Gymshark, AYBL, UnderArmour etc | Prices vary
For my birthday last year, my Mum and Dad brought me some running trainers which I love and get so much use out of - I trained for my 10k Race for Life in them, and also wear them for the gym. They are the under armour trainer charged impulse running shoes from JD and then in the sales this year I also treated myself to a pair of AYBL reflex seamless leggings and their crop t-shirt. A nice zip up jacket/coat (my favourites are both from Gymshark) would also be a good pressie for any fitness lover. If you wanted something on a lower budget I'd recommend - a yoga mat, protein shaker bottle, resistance bands etc.
Again, another find from Marks & Spencer which I thought I'd include is the Foodie Box - they have a huge range of Hampers & Food Gifts to choose from (all different budgets too) and I came across this Foodie Gift Box linked here which includes so many items!!
Fake Tan for me personally would be a great gift to receive as I do purchase it monthly - my current favourite tan (and has been for 2 years now) is the Trinity by Chloe Adair range from Rose and Caramel. I looked on their website and saw they do have her full bundle available which would feel more like a special gift, but just the tan, remover, mitt etc would be perfect - this is usually £73.97 that's why I'm including it in this section - however it's on the site right now for just £49.99 - I'll link it here for you (all FULL size products too)
£100 and over:
Airpods 2nd generation | Apple - £119
This is a gift I brought for Tom for his birthday back in August, and he loves them and wears them every single day without fail. This is a great present for people who you're unsure what to get them, but you know they enjoy listening to music/podcasts/youtube etc. via headphones. I have my Beats headphones which he brought me a few Christmas' ago which I wear to the gym and again I use them 4-5 times a week so great value for money!!
Perfumes are an amazing gift - this year I have asked for Ariana Grande Cloud perfume as I have heard amazing reviews on this, however the last perfume I was brought was from my Uncle and his family and it was the Chanel Coco Mademoiselle perfume which both Mum and I absolutely love - I think it'll forever be one of our favourites, the bottle is beautiful too and it makes for a very special gift as we don't often treat ourselves to perfumes!
A handbag or a purse is always a lovely present to give - last year on my Christmas wish list was a cross body bag and I received this one which I love!!! I have gotten so much wear out of it, and then when I went to Bicester village this year I treated myself to a purse to match.
Gucci heart earrings with Gucci trademark | Gucci - £160
You may remember this picture from my What I Got For My Birthday (linked here) for more present ideas and this is something Tom brought me, as for Christmas last year I also got the Gucci necklace and I love them both and wear them so much. I also think jewellery is a lovely present to buy someone. This year after doing my Race for Life my Mum also got me a pandora charm which says 'you light up my life' which was so cute, so I personally think if they have a pandora bracelet you cannot go wrong with charms - as I've never brought myself one I have only ever had them as gifts which I love too, as they all have a sentimental meaning.
Lots of Love,
Em oxo
