M&S’s Gift Edit Has All My Presents Sorted This Christmas

last updated 10 November 2023

November arrived in the blink of an eye, and soon enough we'll be speeding through December, too. For many of us, the festive season is a time of celebration, stacked with festive dinners, cocktail parties and work celebrations that are already starting to fill our calendars. Then there's all the prep—get a tree, find the decorations, plan all the details… all in all, there's plenty going on. And whilst I can't help with the wrapping, I can help tick "Buy gifts" off your ever-growing to-do list. Below, I've created a refined edit of brilliant gifts your loved ones will truly appreciate, all courtesy of Marks & Spencer. And if you're anything like me, you may find yourself adding to your own wish list, too.

Even though it's something we do each year, it can feel like a daunting task to pick out gifts for our nearest and dearest. At a time when we want to show those we care about how much we appreciate them, getting ahead of present preparation means that they don't end up with last-minute petrol-station chocolates. Plus, most of us have a list of at least a handful of people we're planning to gift this season, so wouldn't it be easier to get it all done in one place? I think so too. That's why I've pulled together a range of gifts that can be snapped up in one simple click of a checkout button. Here's to you, M&S

For fashion followers, what about a pair of killer heels, a dazzling bag or an NYE-ready dress they're sure to be wowed by? There are lots of gorgeous options for those who deserve a little self-care—M&S has a great range of scented candles and warm slippers which would be perfect for a cosy night in watching Christmas films. And for those who are hard to buy for, stick to the classics. Why not treat them to a cosy knit that ticks off both style and comfort this winter? M&S has plenty.
