Gifts for the Geeky/Techy One

I tried to get a mix of presents that would suit males and females as I think most geeky/techy presents are usually aimed at men. A great option for just about anyone nowadays is a phone case or Tablet Case/key pad  as they protect your all important devices, whilst making them look stylish and being totally useful. Another great useful product would be Portable chargers as phone batteries just don't last anywhere near as long as they used to because we use them constantly. Who hasn't realised 10 mins before going out that they only have 15% battery? An equally useful but perhaps more boring option is Memory Cards/External Hard Drives  as I constantly have the issue of not having enough memory on my phone and it's always a good idea to have everything backed up incase your laptop or tablet gets a virus or something. Headphones are another great gadget accessory that everyone would use, similarly a gorgeous leather Laptop Case and Organiser like this one (Though this one is ridiculously expensive!) would be very useful, personally I would love to be able to keep my stuff this organised (I definitely wouldn't though).  A cute novelty gift such as this Storm Trooper Soap Dispenser or Darth Vader Mug would make a great secret santa gift too. A TV Boxset or Movie DVD so that they can relive the experience again and again is always a safe bet too. Another option is Batman Pajamas or other apparel such as this very unusual Captain America Bra so that the recipient can show off their love of their favorite movie/book/comic franchise. A great tip is literally just to type in the name of their fave show/book/movie/comic into etsy and scroll tough all the lovely handmade items till you find something you love. Finally this Slytherin Wall Piece is a great example of room decor so that the recipient can surround themselves with the things they they love at home. Places like RedBubble or Etsy are brilliant for art prints, canvases and hand paintings.

Hope you enjoyed gift guide no.2, my gift guide for the creative one will be up soon...

Day 10: Boys Gift Guide

After last weeks female gift guide it's now the boys turn. I don't know about you but I find my Dad impossible to buy for. Neither of my parents ever want anything, so Christmas and birthdays are rather hard! So far all I have come up with for my dad are his favourite chocolates from thorntons (Alpini). My brother already has slippers covered, my dad doesn't wear ties or cufflinks, already has far too many watches and we already have Netflix so box sets are no good, so basically I'm gonna have to buy him some aftershave I think. Other good options are obviously clothes like shirts or belts and beauty products aren't just for girls, Boots have a really nice selection of male grooming kits from Ted Baker and FCUK too.

I hope those are some useful suggestions...
