My Christmas Gift Guide for Men!
Yesterday, I shared my tips for buying for the women in your life this Christmas season, and today, it’s the boys’ turn! Men can notoriously be hard to buy for, so I’ve checked out the best gifts on the market this year to take the stress out of your shopping. Need some help finding the perfect gift? Allow me to guide you!
DAD
Much like my advice for mums, dads rarely spoil themselves and Christmas time is a great way to show how much you care with a great gift! I love the shirting options at T.M Lewin for their fit and tailoring, and this check shirt is perfect for updating your dad’s wardrobe! If he is a bit of a foodie, a wine subscription like this one from Wine Gallery is a great choice to surprise him with. A sure winner if he loves the cricket is a book bundle all about his favourite sport. I love the selection at Myer when shopping for loved ones, and these books all about cricket will make the perfect gift.
BROTHER
For your brother. If he’s the sporty type, this beach cricket set from Sunny Life is super fun (and can provide plenty of entertainment Christmas day!). If he takes his beer seriously, then this tasting kit from Myer will be a hit! If music’s his thing, this gorgeous hardcover Bowie retrospective will be the perfect gift. You can find it at Mr Porter.
GRANDPA
A little bit of simple luxury never goes astray when shopping for grandfathers. If he likes to indulge in fine food and drink, this Glenmorangie 18-year-old scotch from David Jones (and bonus, it comes in a stunning box that’s almost too pretty to wrap!) or this luxury gentleman’s hamper set from Mr Porter is a great pick! A classic gift is a great set of cufflinks. I love this simple, sophisticated set from Hugo Boss, and I’m sure he will too!
BOYS
Now I haven’t forgotten about the little men in your life! If your son (or nephew, or cousin!) are like most and fell in love with Star Wars this year, Lego has just brought out buildable action figures, like this one you can find at Myer. For more outdoors activities, I love this micro scooter from David Jones – it’s an old idea, but a classic, and I love the added safety of the three wheel design. For fun the whole family can join in on, this pool slide from Wahu is perfect to cool off after Christmas lunch!
BOYFRIEND/HUSBAND
For your boyfriend or husband, I often suggest that classic gifts with a twist are always the best. One the subject of classic, nothing can beat a gorgeous timepiece – I love this one from Daniel Wellington. If he’s a tech guy, he’ll love these Beats by Dre headphones from Apple (aside from the limited edition red being on trend, a portion of the proceeds goes to (RED) to fight AIDS – a gift with a conscience!). If you’re looking for a great stocking stuffer, I love this shaving kit from Pankhurst, available at Mr Porter – luxe, and practical.
Happy shopping, only 23 days to go!
