Oh, Christmas! The lights, gatherings with friends and family, eating out, making toasts, celebrating… and the presents. Even if you’re a big fan of giving Christmas gifts, it’s still possible to run out of ideas. Think about it, some people are harder to buy for because they have everything… or because it’s difficult to find something they’re going to really like.
And because this time of year is for enjoying, we decided to help out by suggesting some Christmas gift ideas, so you just have to decide which one best suits what you are looking for. The Havaianas Christmas gift guide also contains recommendations for gifts to give to everyone.
Original Christmas gift ideas for women
When it comes to finding the perfect gift for someone, the best thing is to know them really well. What they like, what will excite them, their hobbies… the little details that can help you choose something they will definitely like. However, you don’t have to always ask the person in question, you can come up with the best ideas just by being a little bit more observant than usual.
Of course, if you don’t have enough time for this, then here are some original gift ideas for you.
The exclusivity of handmade items
Some handmade items or creations from independent designers are as unique as this time of year. Among our Christmas gift ideas for women, we suggest a handmade piece of jewellery, a bag, a shawl or a scarf. All you need is to find something that best suits their style.
Incredibly fresh skincare routine
If the woman in question is a true skincare lover, then a small fridge for storing her favourite cosmetics could be a hit. That way she can spend a few minutes pampering herself every day to start the morning on a positive note or to wind down at the end of the day.
Travel lovers
Does she travel frequently both for work and pleasure? Then perhaps a good gift idea for your girlfriend, mum or sister would be a… carry-on suitcase that is the perfect size for hand luggage to hold all of their necessities for any destination. A good pair of slippers is also the ideal gift for a tireless traveller. You can put them inside the case and give them two gifts in one!
All about relaxation
Maybe the woman you’re giving to has a lot of stress in her daily life and could do with a little bit of relaxation. What better than to gift her a day spa experience? You could also add a pair of women’s flip flops for her visit.
Go big!
Giving tickets to a concert or musical to someone who would love to see their favourite artist live is always a guaranteed success. It doesn’t have to be a concert, it could be theatre tickets for a musical, etc. The key thing is to think about what they like and gift them an unforgettable experience.
Original Christmas gift ideas for men
People often say that finding gifts for men is harder than for women, but as mentioned earlier, there is nothing like paying attention to the details that make the person in question happy in order to find the perfect present. We hope these Christmas gift ideas for men help you when it comes to buying at this time of year.
Rapid-fire
Do they like music? Video games? Then a pair of headphones could be a good option. You could choose wireless headphones or something more discreet and easy to wear for the daily commute. Whatever you decide, there are many options that will suit that person’s lifestyle perfectly.
Well-equipped
If the person in question loves hiking, day trips, the beach or simply uses one every day, a backpack could be a great choice, always making sure it is comfortable for that person’s back.
A toast to all
Perhaps your dad or partner has become a real barman lately. Why not take advantage of that hobby and encourage them to take it further? Gift them a cocktail set with the perfect glasses to serve their latest creations so that they won’t enjoy them alone.
Under cover
Whether it’s their usual style or just for trips or going to the beach, a well-designed cap with a generous visor could be a winning Christmas gift idea. You could always take advantage and choose a more modern design or their favourite colour. And if you’re looking for something more for everyday use, why not buy them a nice, original tracksuit?
For retro lovers
If you’re looking for a gift for a music lover, you have loads of options, but a record player could be a great idea, especially if they like all things vintage. Choose a suitcase-style record player or something more modern. What’s important is for them to be able to enjoy their vinyl discs… you could also complete your gift by buying their favourite disc.
Original Christmas gift ideas for children
The smallest members of the household are usually the easiest to buy for at Christmas, but you don’t need overwhelm them with toys in order to make them happy. Here are some Christmas gift ideas for children.
A soaring imagination
Superheroes, princesses, animals… a costume is always a good idea for children who love pretending to be their favourite characters. Let their imagination fly!
Sleeping with the best
It may be one of the most traditional gifts, but it’s also one that children will definitely use. Give them pyjamas featuring characters from their favourite series or comic books and they will look forward to getting into bed.
The best stimulation
There’s nothing like encouraging reading from an early age, that’s why we believe that one of the best gifts you can give to children is books. Look for a theme they will like and is suitable for their age so they can read it themselves and enjoy the story.
Go for it!
Not everyone is lucky enough to live in a place where it’s warm enough to bathe all year round. But if the child in question loves water, why not gift them a swimsuit and some children’s flip flops? As with the pyjamas, you can find them with their favourite characters. Everything’s a bonus!
It’s all about the rhythm
The last Christmas idea we’re going to give you may not be to the parents’ liking, but it is definitely the best option for stimulating children. Giving them a musical instrument will not only allow them to enjoy music from another perspective, but may also help them discover a vocation that will help them in the future.
