Christmas Gift Guide #2 // Boys

The men in our lives can be sooo difficult to buy for; dads, brothers, boyfriends, uncles, sons... They're more than likely a pain the bum. I've put together a list of a few quirky Christmas present ideas to get your imagination going as you start your shopping!

1 - Fun Baseball Tee, Alibico, £21.99 // Alibico is a BMX-inspired brand which was started in 2010 by my brother's friend, and all their stuff is really cool. Perfect if you know a boy who's into BMX, or even a boy who's not. click here

2 - Vintage Bicycle Metal Sign, dotcomgiftshop, £5.95 // I think this is such a sweet and quirky gift, perfect for a garage, office or kitchen! The colours are really neutral too. Love!!! click here

3 - Wallet from Herschel Supply Company, £25 // Wallets are a necessity and the men I know love getting new ones, a bit like us girls and bags/purses/shoes/anything really... The one in the picture is slightly different to the one I've linked due to my computer having a meltdown, sorry! But yeah, wallets. You can't go wrong really. click here

4 - Personalised Map Cufflinks by Ellie Ellie, £29.50 // I can't express how much I love this idea; you get to choose two locations and have those places on the map put on the cufflinks! For example, you could get the person's birthplace and their current home town. Fabulous. click here

5 - Beard Oils by The Bearded Man Company, £13 for two // We know how much men with beards love their beards, so these oils are a fab idea to help them keep it in tip top condition. Plus there's a range of gorgeous scents so he'll be smelling divine too! click here

Hopefully this has helped you think of something to buy for those fussy members of the male species...

1 - Cross Stitch phone case from Sighh Designs, £12.50 // "An online store selling hand drawn stuff printed on stuff."

4 - Mean Girls tee from eBay, £8.95 // Everyone loves Mean Girls right? And a slogan tee is a must-have for every female's wardrobe! You can get a few different quotes on these t-shirts, but this is my favourite. click here

5 - Christmas Candy Box, Lush, £14.95 // I find Lush to be a little on the pricey side sometimes, but I think these gift boxes are a fab idea.
