The Ultimate Christmas Gift Guide 2024

Whoever you're shopping for, you'll be spoiled for choice with our selection of gifts for her: check out our top picks from our new-in womenswear range for inspiration. Complete her festive outfits with a pair of party shoes – like these glossy red pointed slingbacks – some special jewellery, or a standout hair accessory.

Perfume is always a winning gift idea too: you'll find a range of scents from top beauty brands at M&S, from Floral Street to Clinique and Estée Lauder. Looking for more Christmas gift ideas for her? Read our guide here.

With great gifts for the kids in your life, you can make their Christmas even more magical. Delight LEGO fans with a set that'll keep them occupied for hours, or try an educational toy by Early Learning Centre. Visit our Character Shop for toys, clothes and accessories inspired by their favourite fictional friends, from Disney princesses to Paddington and Spiderman.

For babies, choose from our selection of soft toys, or go for a cosy outfit. Need more Christmas gift ideas for kids? We've put together a guide here.

From Benefit to Elizabeth Arden, Neom to Nuxe, our selection of top beauty brands makes M&S the ideal one-stop shop for make-up and skincare gifts. For an easy present idea, go for a failsafe make-up staple: Clinique's Almost Lipsticks look great on every skin tone, while Benefit's Badgal Bang! mascara is universally loved by beauty fans.

If there's someone on your gift list who deserves a little me-time, treat them to a pampering gift set. Try L'Occitane, Neal's Yard Remedies and Apothecary for nourishing bath and body products that smell incredible.

Secret Santa gifts are often the most challenging to buy, especially if you don't know the recipient very well – but our dedicated Secret Santa gift edit will point you in the right direction.

A gift featuring their initial will look thoughtful – try our sweet alphabet jewellery box, light-up letter or alphabet eau de toilette. For men, go for accessories like a leather belt (a steal at £20), or give them the gift of a cosy night in with our teddy fleece hooded blanket. Still unsure? Treat them to an M&S gift card, which they can spend on anything they like.
