For The Scatterbrain
Umbra Poise Jewellery And Accessory Stand, ASOS, £17.50
ASOS has called this a jewellery stand, but it could also double up as a fruit bowl or a safe place to chuck your keys as soon as you get in the door. Big enough to fit the biggest of statement necklaces, it will easily find a home in any room of your house, so you can keep your valuables where you can see them.
For The Time Poor
Remove & Chill Nail Polish Eraser Cream, Beauty Mart, £14.25
If your ladyfriend moans about chipped nails but never has time to tidy them up, pick up a tube of this acetone-free, polish eraser cream. Simply apply a thick layer onto each nail, leave on for one to three minutes, massage into nails and remove with a tissue or cotton pad. It’s enriched with macadamia, almond and argo oil to keep hands in tip top condition too, without the lingering smell of usual varnish remover.
For The Poetry Lover
Milk and Honey, Rupi Kaur, Amazon, £5.72
Kaur’s debut collection of poetry explores love, loss and longing, bringing readers with her as she explores the highs and lows of relationships.
It’s nigh on impossible to get tickets to her live readings when she goes on tour, so this is the next best thing.
For The Gift That Keeps On Giving
Bloom & Wild Subscription, Bloom & Wild, prices from £18
If you’re looking to upgrade from last minute petrol shop flowers, try a monthly flower subscription that comes with free delivery and a different handpicked bunch every time.

For The Accessory Aficionado
Gold Hoop Earrings, Mango, £9.99
Keep things simple with a delicate piece of jewellery. This classic hooped pair is an affordable wardrobe must-have and is perfect for the woman who wouldn’t buy them for herself.

For The Fragrance Fiend
