Cool StuffCultureInspirationLifestyleLast minute Christmas gift guide 2016

If you’re like me, you might be a last minute Larry or Lara – even though I have lists written weeks in advance I don’t actually act on them until I REALLY need to. (Procrastination – we’ve spoken about this before right?) Like buying Christmas presents for example – I will keep looking until I’ve found the illusive ‘right’ gift. Does that really exist?! OR will buy something ‘ok’ simply because it’s too late.

Anyway, with 4 shopping days left until Christmas there’s still plenty of time for you to succeed in the art of gift giving of 2016 – that’s what next day delivery is for 😉 Time is precious, so I won’t chat much more but if you’re super stuck then here are some brilliant (if I do say so myself) gift ideas for the special, but hard to buy for, people in your life:

• Biscuiteers: Jolly Ginger  –  Urban Outfitters: Print hanger  –  Suck UK: Corkboard frame  –   Mina Lima: Harry Potter Postcard set  –   Urban Outfitters: Succulent Tealight candles: Urban Outfitters  –  Geo-fleur: plant subscription  –  Ecoffee: William Morris ‘Poppy’ cup

•  Monotype: Johnston Tote bag  –  Mr Jones Watches: Colour Venn watch  –  Lego: Key holder  –  Urban Outfitters: Giant Bulldog clips  –  Oliver Bonas: Letterboard  –  Suck UK: Table Tennis notebooks  –  Breaking Bad inspired Chemistry beaker mug

Annnnnd if all of those items are sold out (PFFT!) then I recommend browsing some of go-to high street favourites for gifts (I think it’s too late for Etsy & independents now?):

–  Oliver Bonas  –  Flying Tiger  –  Urban Outfitters  –  JOY  –  Kikki K  –  Hotel Chocolat  –

And if all else fails, gift cards are a brilliant option! Happy Shopping and don’t forget that for the people working in retail, this is a busy and pretty stressful time. They want to help you so don’t make it hard for them, don’t be a dick and don’t forget to smile 🙂
