I am resisting the urge to buy presents for my friends that I want myself. Instead I am trying very hard to think about what each person would like. How do I know what sort of thing they would like? Well one way of finding out is thinking what they bought for you last year and this will probably be along the lines of what they would like to receive themselves. Here are some ideas.

Miss Sixty Beauty T Shirt

The Fashionista Friend - The fashionista friend will probably love designer labels and will really appreciate some thing with their favourite label on. If you can’t afford very much it doesn’t matter as long as it has the label on. Try hats, scarves or T shirts.

Dear Cashmere Jumper

The Mum Friend - Friends with children will probably spend their time thinking about practicalities and practical clothes. Come Christmas, they will be delighted to be treated to something a little luxurious .

Aftershock Evening Bag

The Young Free and Single Friend - This category also inlcudes the young at heart. These friends are likely to be partying hard over Christmas and New Year so you can’t really go wrong with a lovely accessory for their party outfit.

Billy Bag Leather Savannah Key Ring

The Work Friend - You may meet at the coffee machine every day for a chat but don’t really know too much about this persons style or what they like. You will probably only want to get a small token gift so  a keyring is perfect.

D & G Ladies Watch

And last but most importantly

The Best Friend - treat your best friend to some thing really special this year. No doubt she has supported you through all of your ups and downs this year so really deserves it.
