Todays Christmas Gift Guide is the first of four that I will be doing and I thought I would start with lifestyle! These are the type of gifts that are great if you’re unsure what to get someone and don’t have many ideas, they are also the type of presents in which would be suited for quite a lot off different people so you could always buy a few people the same thing.
Guylian are one of my favourite brands of chocolate and are a little bit more luxurious than others. They are Belgian chocolates and really do taste just like the ones you get from Belgium, I’ve been a few times and these are just as delicious! The seashells are their classic product and the ones which I always purchase, filled with a smooth roasted hazelnut praline they taste incredible. I also love the blend of white, milk and dark chocolate as they work perfectly together. Now I hadn’t tried the Milk Truffle Seahorses before as I always go for the classic box however they are just as tasty, they melt in your mouth and are perfect with a cup of tea. Both of these boxes are a great size to give as a gift either for one person or even a couple as there is just the right amount of chocolate for them to be shared, also if you are stuck on what to buy someone you can never go wrong with chocolate!
I’ve included two gifts from an online store called The Present Finder which is great for quirkily and unusual gifts. The way in which the website is laid out makes it super easy to find the perfect gift, there are lots different categories to look through depending on who you’re buying presents for. One of the products which I have noticed to be very popular at the moment is the ‘One Line A Day Five Year Memory Book’. It’s basically a five year diary which has the date on each page and you just write in the year, then each year as you fill it in you can see exactly what you were doing or thinking about on that day! I think it’s such a great idea and I know quite a few people that would love this for Christmas.
Another product from the The Present Finder is something that is must-have in my eyes, a portable phone charger! This is the Pocket Smartphone Power Pack and I don’t know how I would ever survive without one of these, they are amazing for when you are out and about as you can just pop it in your bag and don’t have to worry about your phone battery dying. It makes a great gift as everyone has a phone so is something that everyone would love, also I always find that a few months after getting a new phone the battery doesn’t last as long so this is perfect.
There’s something about physical photographs which make them that little bit more special, I love having them to put up on the wall in my office or just to keep in my draw to have a look though. Firstly I want to share with you the Christmas Cheerz Box which contains lots of cute photos in the traditional instant photo format which is my favourite. You can personalise your photos by adding filters, messages along the bottom and different border colours. However if you’re looking for something a little different there is also the Cheerz Christmas Magnet Box which contains cute personalised magnets which you can pop on your fridge to make it a little bit more fun! Both of these are lovely and I have seen quite a few people with them lately, also the quality is amazing so you don’t need to worry about your images not being clear and beautiful. Who wouldn’t want a cute little box of photos from Cheerz?!
Then the last gift idea is for those who would like something a little bit different to style and protect their macbook or phone! Cover-up sell a range of skins for tablets, macbooks and phones with my favourite being their woodback designs (the one on my macbook is walnut). They’re like something I have never seen before and are great quality, not only does it keep my macbook looking gorgeous but it also keeps it protected from any scratches.
So they are all of my lifestyle gift ideas, I think they’re perfect for when you’re not sure what to get someone as these would be suited for most people. I have another three Christmas gift guides coming up very soon so keep an eye out for those!

I love Guylian chocolates! I always get a box for my mum as a small present each year, she loves them too. They’re definitely a lot more luxurious than other chocolates! I am in love with that One Line a Day diary though, wouldn’t it be amazing to look back at how you were thinking/feeling 5 years ago?! I wouldn’t remember normally so it’s nice to see how you and your life has changed within 5 years.
This is definitely my favourite gift guide I’ve seen so far!

There are some great gifts here, it’s so hard when you have no idea what to get someone! I wouldn’t think to buy someone a portable charger but it’s actually a really handy thing to have!

I really love that one-line-a-day book! It’s also an adorable idea for a newly married couple or new parents. It’s always fun to look back on exciting times like that.
