True to its name, this is a super last-minute wishlist those of you who have not yet shopped for gifts for your loved ones or even to treat yourselves.
There is nothing more satisfying when gifting something to someone knowing you chose the right gift. I would also like to add that I have worked with and personally used all the items, services, and brands on this list. This list is my personal recommendation.
In no particular order here they are:
- Tom Ford – #privateblend @tomford
Whats there to say about the Tom Ford Private Blend collection that has not already been said. The collection has a wide range of scents meaning there is something for everyone. Honestly, I could spend a whole day smelling the entire collection and not be tired. Great option for a gift.
- Eddie handmade pad – @eddiehandmade
The Eddie handmade notepad is a great option for a gift. I personally think it is one of the most practical gifts one can get especially for a creative. I love everything about this notepad and the brand in general. I call this notepad my lifestyle partner. Read more about it here.
- Hommage grooming kit – @hommage_luxe
From what I personally know, Hommage is designed specifically for men who want to take their grooming game to the next level. For men who take pride in looking and feeling good. My experience with Hommage’s ShaveCare has been good. The design of the Manhattan razor means that it fits perfectly in my hand giving me complete control of movement and motion. Great piece of kit to have. Read more about it here.
4. Kronaby watch – @kronaby
This black Apex Kronaby which is one that has graced my wrist a lot in the past few months as it is both functional and stylish. One of the things I like about the brand is the fact that it has managed to create timepieces which preserved the heritage of classic watches but also invest in the digital future. It is slightly on the pricier side of the scale of watches but is a worthy investment. Read more about it here.
- Elemis men’s grooming – @elemis
Elemis is quintessentially British and it is a market leading as far as luxury skincare is concerned. I first came across Elemis onboard a British Airways flight some time ago. Elemis prides itself on using ground-breaking science to produce results for skincare and lifestyle needs through ingredients sourced naturally from around the world. A few of these products will leave anyone’s skin feeling looked after. Have a read through a previous article I did on Elemis here.
- New Balance trainers – @newbalanceuk
There bad-boy pair of New Balance is just what I needed when I went away on holiday to Dubai a couple of months ago. They are very comfortable as well as stylish. A must-have for casual wear.
- J.J Corry whiskey – @jjcorry_blaise
JJ Corry Whiskey will go down a treat for anyone who is into Whiskey. The story behind the brand is as beautiful as the whiskey itself. The history combined with the passion from which it is made from makes this award-winning whiskey the one to have in your bar all year round. A list of the stockist for the whiskey can be found here.
- Duke & Dexter boots – @dukedexter
I personally fell in love with these Duke and Dexter Chelsea boots the minute I lay eyes on them. They really come alive with a rolled up pair of blue jeans. Whoever gets these will cherish them for a long time.
- John Smedley knitwear – @johnsmedleyknitwear
If you are a lover of good quality knitwear you would have recognized John Smedley as the undisputed leader in this humble yet prestigious garment. Whether it is the roll neck or the polo knitwear, there is no denying the fact that the knitwear exudes elegance and style.
- Stay at the amazing Langham hotel
The Langham hotel is one of the most prestigious in England is perfectly located in the heart of London with the famous Oxford street a stone throw away. Customer service at the Langham is as good as it gets. From the minute I stepped out of my Uber to speaking to room service over the phone to order my breakfast in bed, the service was exceptional. There is nothing like good old British customer service. loved every bit of it. I reckon this will be a right treat for whoever gets this as a gift.
So there you have it, people. I hope my list has inspired you to treat someone special this Christmas. Enjoy your Christmas.
