I'm going to put my hands up and say, that when thinking of what to feature for today's gift guide, I was thinking a lot about what I would like to see under the tree this year, and about my gal pals. So obviously, this was one of the easiest of gift guides I've created in this series, and the last one too! 

There are some gorgeous gifts for the ladies in your lives below, plus, with Black Friday tomorrow (although a lot of brands have offers on already) you will be able to pick up a bargain on some of the below. I know I'll be checking out the Missoma sale, and picking up a little sparkly treat for myself. 

So, this is the last post in my Giftmas series! I hope you've enjoyed, and I've also given you some ideas for Christmas. Most importantly, I really hope you are all able to have a wonderful Christmas, even if it's going to be slightly different this year, make sure to keep positive and stay safe.

Day 9: Men

I always find it difficult to buy for my husband, and the other males in my family, so putting together a gift guide just for men is tricky. But I'd like to think that the items below are good and not too cliché either - from clothing to items such as the hand held massager and the acupressure mat, and even a make your own ukelele (yes, a little random, but go with it!) there is something in this gift guide for every guy out there - heck, there are even a few items in here that will definitely be suitable for the ladies too. Although, there is a gift guide for them coming tomorrow...

Shopping for the little 'uns can be super easy, but when it comes to the older kids, specifically teenagers, it can be blooming tricky! 

Usually the magic of make believe at Christmas has pretty much faded when you're a teenager. Out goes the letter to Father Christmas, the carrots once left out for the reindeer on Christmas Eve are now being dipped in hummus, and the mince pies are being eaten before they're even placed on a plate for Father Christmas. 

But, one thing that doesn't change is presents - this can be no easy feat - there is always something new, and I don't know about you, but I am not up-to-date / 'down with the cool kids' to know exactly what is 'cool' at the moment. 

So, I've consulted the in-house step-teenager, and managed to get more than a few short answers out of him, I also consulted the world.wide.web, and found some ideas that I personally think are 'cool' - Tbh, the 'girly' items I've chosen I'd happily have under the tree for myself - those pink metallic Swedish Hasbeens being number 1, along with the Marc Jacobs hairslide - HELLO. 

I LOVE shopping for kids! You can truly indulge your inner-child, and pick items that you wish were around when you were little (think Flamingo dressing up costume), choose some colourful items of clothing, and fun toys that they will (hopefully) play with for longer than 10 minutes! 

Whether you're shopping for your own little ones, your friends' toddler or your nephews and nieces who are growing up far too fast, there's a gift here they're sure to treasure. 

I have my eyes on a fair few of the items below for my friends’ young children - I’m especially loving the inspirational kids print by My Tiny Beast, and also the personalised pom-pom fairy light by Melanie Porter. 

I hope you find something below, and if you’re looking for a gift idea for teenagers, fear not - I have a a post coming for you tomorrow...

Day 4: Food

Day 5: Beauty

We all have that friend or relative in our life that’s beauty-obsessed, and we can all probably relate to the fact that shopping the beauty aisles can be a bit overwhelming (to say the least).

I love a beauty gift set (way more than a beauty advent calendar), they're great value, and brands usually include at least one of their best sellers in the set. I've rounded up my favourite beauty gifts to help make your shopping go a little more smoothly during the festive period. From skincare, makeup, haircare and fragrance - the beauty addicts in your life will love these gifts. 

Don’t say I don’t treat you.

Day 3 of Giftmas, and it's all about books.

Buying books can be a bit of a tricky one, but I LOVE recommending books and gifting them to friends and family, as much as I love reading them. For me, 2020 has been a big book year for me (I've had a lot of time on my hands) and as I type up this Christmas Gift Guide series, I am currently reading my way through my 31st book of the year. That's for another post though, as you bet I'll be writing up about them separately. 

There are a few friends and family members I, without fail, will buy a book or two at Christmas for, and always write a little note inside the front cover. I find this to be such a thoughtful gift idea, and cost effective. 

This gift guide was a tricky one, as it was hard to narrow down my favourites! However, this guide doesn't just include books I've read - I've also added a few that came as recommendations too, and included a few cookbooks, which may come in handy for tomorrow's gift guide...

You will notice, that all the links for the books below take you to Bookshop.org I wanted to support local, independent businesses as much as possible throughout this gift guide series, and this website is an online bookshop with a mission to financially support local, independent bookshops. 

Due to the current climate, we physically can't walk in to our local bookshops to pick up our next read - we have to order online. So this website allows us to have an easy, convenient way to buy our books and support local bookshops at the same time - what's amazing about it, is that if you want to support a specific local bookshop, you can find them on the map provided, and that bookshop will receive the full profit from your order. Otherwise, your order will contribute to an earnings pool that will be evenly distributed among independent bookshops. Either way, you're helping, so get clicking! 

 Day 2 of Giftmas, and today is all about Christmas gifts for under £20. Whether you’re shopping for your BFF, or a colleague's name you've picked out of a hat for the usual office secret Santa- hopefully this post will give you a few ideas!

From the creative, to the most random (yes, Gin Mayo is actually a thing) there is something for everyone. Personally, I'm loving the Sighh x The Insecure Girls' Club collaboration which launched last week - everything is super cute, but I especially love the mirror decals - check the rest of the collection out here, and treat yourself. 

For those that love a bit of a giggle, I suggest buying someone who has a dog the Trump dog toy (there is also a Boris one too!), and for someone stylish, you can't go wrong with a reusable tote from Baggu - the metallic one is a favourite.
