As a woman, making tough decisions is part and parcel of our daily lives. Whether its making up your mind between two equally stunning pair of shoes when, alas, you can only warrant the one pair; or deciding between attending that evening spin class or catching up on the soaps with a share size bag of maltesers (I know which i’d choose!) – either way when it comes to making decisions women tend to have it down pat.
But if there is one dilemma that seems to elude every woman from here to eternity it is the dreaded ‘gift for him’. Regardless of whether its sibling, spouse or other – the male of the species manages to cause even the most organised of festive gift givers untold amounts of stress. And while as a mere fashion writer I cannot declare to solve this most terrible of christmas conundrums, I can offer up some unique gift ideas for those women out there that are just about ready to throw in the tinsel.
