Christmas shopping for men is definitely not the easiest. For me, there are a lot of men in my family so I’ve had my fair share of shopping dilemmas. Over the years though with trial and error there does seem to be a common ground of the gifts which proved to be extremely successful. I’ve collaborated with Littlewoods Ireland for this particular piece to show you my top five gift ideas while giving you a diverse price range too from the luxury to the stocking filler under €20.
The Timeless Gift
As a brand I always find Fossil watches offer a great selection for men. I bought my boyfriend a similar one last year and he’s worn it every day since. Deep brown shades are a great starting point as it’s a colour which will go with anything in their wardrobe. This particular style is a metal wrap around, James Bond- esque style that would cover age ranges from 17 up to 60. At €209 it’s more of a luxury purchase but something which they will get a lot of mileage out of. It even comes perfectly packaged in a quirky metal tin for safe keeping too.

The Token Gift
Whether you’re looking for a token gift or a stocking filler, I always love how Lynx do their Christmas packaging which looks extremely presentable. Lynx Black is their latest scent to the brand and it smells divine! With this set you get a Lynx shower gel, a card holder and a combination of both their deodorant styles, original and Dry. I found that Littlewoods Ireland have a variety of different Lynx Christmas packages giving you the choice of travel size gift options to various scents if you know the person has a particular favourite Lynx scent.

The Practical Gift:
If the man in your life happens to ask for an electric shaver then welcome to the minefield of men’s grooming! There is an enormous selection and it is so terribly easy to get it wrong. Believe me it’s happened to me so many times over the years! Most electric razors lean towards one particular kind of grooming either clean shaven or a barely there subtle effect. More and more now men like to have a variation in their shaving style, be it a bit of Bradley Cooper slightly unshaved vibes or a Conor Mcgregor well kept beard. This Philips 7 in 1 multigroom razer is an ultimate safe grooming bet. It has numerous adjustments for a super close shave, to a short subtle groomer, a beard trimmer and you can even use it for hair. It’s a great middle of the road price point at €55 ( it’s currently on sale on Littlewoods for €35 though!).

A touch of humour!
For those of you buying for camera lovers in your life, you will loved this idea! Fun and quirky this camera lens travel mug will definitely come in useful, but just make sure they don’t accidently put it in their camera bags! 🙂

Wrap him up
For the more label conscious guy, this Calvin Klein gift set is a perfect luxurious gift, definitely not your average scarf set! The steel grey is a great colour choice to opt for as it’s something which can be teamed with a multitude of clothing options.
