Sarah LafargeInvest in premium knitwear
Knitwear is always a great choice for a Christmas gift – most people are happy to receive something cosy made from cashmere or merino wool to see them through the cold months ahead. Opt for something in a bright colour to cheer up gloomy January and February days.
This bold yellow beanie has been given a five-star rating by our customers, who love its luxurious feel and quality. Made from merino wool with a hint of cashmere, it's part of our exclusive collaboration with Bella Freud. Also available in pink, there's a matching scarf too.
The home decor hero
Homeware is a great gift idea for anyone who's recently moved into a new house or who loves interior design. For a fail-safe present, choose something that blends in seamlessly with their existing decorating scheme: think calming neutral colours and simple, contemporary shapes.
Our asymmetric vase is the perfect gift piece. Rated an impressive five stars by our customers, it has a textured finish, giving it an artisanal feel. In neutral off-white tones, it'll add interest to any room. Customers love its rustic look and unusual, curved silhouette that's perfect for displaying flowers or dried stems.
The me-time pampering gift
Know someone who deserves a bit of time out this Christmas? Treat them to a pampering beauty gift set. We've got options from premium brands including This Works, L'Occitane, Neal's Yard Remedies and many more.
Our customers' top pick is the Radiant Neroli & Orchidee gift set by L'Occitane. The set contains eau de toilette, shower gel and a soothing hand cream scented with neroli and orchid, plus a hint of sweet orange and peach. Reviewers have given it a five-star rating, saying the products smell "fabulous".
The cuddly new friend
Children of all ages will love receiving our Christmas Spencer Bear. With a cosy knitted Fair Isle scarf, adorable reindeer antlers, plus a seasonal red nose, he's the ideal festive soft toy to snuggle up to. We also love that he has 'M&S 2024' embroidered on one foot, making him a memento of this year's festivities to be treasured for years to come.
Not surprisingly, our customers gave Spencer Bear five-star reviews, one saying "every Christmas must have a Spencer Bear and this little chap fits the bill. He is super cute, cuddly and good value".
The luxe leather bag
Men can be tricky to buy for, but stylish accessories are always a safe option. Take inspiration from our Autograph range, which features classic designs in premium materials: perfect for a special gift.
We love this roomy leather weekend bag, available in black and brown. With a detachable shoulder strap and plenty of pockets, it's a practical gift that will last him for years to come. Customers have rated it five stars, commenting on its incredible quality and roomy interior, with one review mentioning that it holds its shape well.
