Last Minute Christmas Gift Ideas

Due to life getting in the way I never did my intended teen post - there are some ideas for teens in the post below but also some ideas that you can either get online while there's time or on the high street. For women (and some men) if in doubt you can make up a goodie bag, for men you don't know well food and drink always goes down well.

Blue Bowl - last orders from this amazing present website are by 2pm on Thursday 21st. Need some stocking fillers? I simply love my leopard and though the zebra's are sadly sold out you can get these cool wild animal dispensers for the washi obsessive in your life (everyone has one of those). Tricky to buy for teens can have these pom pom hair ties or a pyramid pouch.


By Terry - it's rare for me to get excited about a limited edition eyeshadow palette. They are usually overpriced and just don't do it for me. The By Terry Limited edition eyeshadow palette for Harrods this year though is stunning and has some beautiful, wearable colours. Those of you near Knightsbridge and go and get it in store and the risk takes can take their chances with Royal Mail (Harrods have minimal details on their website).

Em-j - are posting orders made before midday today (Wednesday 20th). There are the new eyelash curlers which are perfect for a stocking and these personal brush pouches are great for keeping your brushes and make-up clean and separate when travelling.

Mini Mobile - joint favourite toy of the babies is this mini mobile. It packs up really small so will fit in your bag, clips on to pram, car seat or anywhere and makes the most lovely low jingling sound that isn't at all annoying which is a miracle. He never seems to tire of it. Available from Jojo Maman Bebe and other stores.

Mutha.Hood - absolutely my favourite tshirt purchase of the year is the Sisterhood tee and next on the list for me is the Fearless tshirt and Sweater. Tshirts for little girls, pins, totes and zip bags mean you have pretty much every age of girl covered. They are posting first class to make sure it gets to you. Select special delivery on your postage option and order before 12pm on Thursday 21st.

Nuby Flip Flop Book - need a last minute present for a 0-8 month old? This teether book has been my littlest's absolute favourite and you can get them in most Boots stores on on Amazon of course.

Small Print Books - absolutely the best place to get nice kids books. Last orders today, Wednesday 20th.

Trinket Dish - another great one for teen girls and this cute cat one from Oliver Bonas is a great price.
