And it’s that time of the year again; it’s time for The Orange Gift Bag’s annual Christmas Gift Guides. While I share gift ideas all-year round, the run up to Christmas gets my adrenaline pumping like nothing else. My brain is brimming with gift ideas and I’m bursting at the seams with excitement on every cool, new find.
I’m starting off with a Christmas Gift Guide for Men because clearly they’re the hardest to shop for! This gift guide is a mix of gorgeous, useful and quirky things.
1. I am drooling over these
Perús Sneakers
right now. The brain child of Armand, Nicolas and Henri from France, these sneakers are handmade in Peru and are designed using traditional Inca patterns. What’s more, for each pair of sneakers you buy, one day of school is funded for a child in an underprivileged suburb of Cusco.

480-600kr

2. You can bet that this
Gant Scarf
will be used a lot. Scarves and Danish winters go well together.

3. "
Can you pass the pepper bot please
?". Imagine the fun conversation this could lead to. The gadget loving men in your life are sure to love these
Salt & Pepper Bots
.

Paco Rabanne Invictus Eau de Toilette.
Because, everyone could do with some eau de toilette. I was sold at the packaging. And that name…Invictus!

5. Or replace that eau de toilette with a deo and throw in a shower gel with the classy
Giorgio Armani Acqua
gift set.

pun intended
) behind this cool brand.

03/12/2015 at 20:23Oh my I love all these suggestions. Wouldn't mind getting my boys a Batman or Superman alarm clock, as for the sneakers and scarf, well I think I know what I'm getting my husband for Christmas.

04/12/2015 at 08:25It's super cool you've found something for the boys and your husband. I can see why the clock would be popular with the boys:-)

03/12/2015 at 18:11I agree men are pretty impossible to shop for. My husband doesn't wear after shave, and the shoes and scarf are too sophisticated a look for him. He's pretty much American preppy in chinos and a collared blue shirt year-round. He likes to cook so the salad servers are a great idea. The Batman clock I want for my son. I need to find out how to get that here in the UK.

04/12/2015 at 08:31Oh those blue shirts! My husband has so many of them too. The Batman clock and the salad servers are available on Amazon UK too. Hope this helps.
