In partnership with our partners
The countdown to Christmas is truly on, we're just over halfway through our advent calendars and if you're anything like me you'll have already watched Love Actually and The Holiday at least once. The festive feeling is well and truly here and so is the reminder to tick off the last of your Christmas shopping.
If, like me, you have a few family members and friends that you still have to shop for and you're looking for inspiration for your final few gifts. Then look no further. I have reached out to our Marie Claire Editors and Marie Claire Edit ambassadors to find out exactly what they're hoping to find in their stockings and under the tree on the 25th as well as what they're planning on treating their loved ones to this Christmas.
From jute Cowboy bags to LED masks and everything in between. There are gifts at each and every price point, from an eclectic mix of brands, stores and charities. So whether you're looking for a last-minute gift, to treat your nearest and dearest or, just yourself you're sure to find something in our Edit.

"It's important for me to give-back this time of year so I buy and gift my loved ones bars from Shelter's organic vegan and vegetarian chocolate. Handmade in partnership with Seed&Bean all proceeds go towards raising vital funds to support and help people struggling with homelessness and bad housing. The dark mint is especially delicious." Emily Ferguson, eCommerce Director
"Spending time with my family has become even more important over the past year: so it’s important that they have GOOD coffee when I visit. I'll be treating my parents to this so I can always have an incredible flat white." Hannah Cooper, presenter and Edit ambassador
"There’s one clear fashion direction that you can always rely upon and that's to go West. No brand is more emblematic of this mood than Tuftluck. Think, Western-style hand-tufted rugs, cowboy boot candles and flirty prints - I’m obsessed. This Christmas I’m treating myself to their Cowboy Tote, this ethical hessian style is handcrafted in Bangladesh through fair trade partnerships which facilitate access to education and medical care.” Sarah-Rose Harrison, Contributing Fashion Editor

"I wish I could say I shouldn't reveal my gifts ahead of time, because my family read everything I write, but alas that isn't true, so we are safe. My mum always takes my skincare recommendations very seriously. This year the skincare line I have recommend most has been Sarah Chapman and this Christmas Kit is perfect for mummy dearest. A spot of facial massage on Christmas morning? Why not?" Katie Thomas, Senior Beauty Editor
"Mayfair Mania hit this season pretty hard with everyone from the Duchess of Cambridge to Gigi Hadid stepping out carrying this bag. Hand-crafted from full-grain leather, the compact design is ideal for everyday wear and special occasions - think NYE!" Penny Goldstone, Fashion Editor Sponsored
"Although this would be a treat for me, my husband will absolutely steal it. I've had my eye on it all year and with all the Facials I missed out on over Lockdown I feel the cost is finally justified..." Hannah Cooper, presenter and Edit ambassador
"For me, Christmas is synonymous with cashmere. Cosy, classic and a creative gift for a tricky loved one. I treated myself to one of these last year and this one, blended with 65% recycled cashmere, will be wrapped up under the tree ready for my Mum come Christmas day." Sarah-Rose Harrison, Contributing Fashion Editor Sponsored
"I love Secondi's curated edit of second hand trinkets - their glassware isn't to be missed! So, when I saw they had launched a candle collection in collaboration with calligrapher Copper Leaf I knew it would be gorgeous and so considered. With warming notes of spiced orange and rich cinnamon, it's a gorgeous gift to give friends at festive gatherings." Sarah-Rose Harrison, Contributing Fashion Editor
"Playful t-shirts make a great stocking filler, this one - part of Shelter's collaboration with four artists who responded to the charities core belief that ‘Home is Everything’. Already purchased your gifts? To donate to Shelter this winter and help families facing homelessness, simply visit shelter.org.uk/donate" Emily Ferguson, eCommerce Director
"I do not, I repeat, I do not have too many rings. Despite what some people are saying. This Christmas, I will be adding this beautiful ring, from the most talked-about collaboration of the year to my collection." Katie Thomas, Senior Beauty Editor Sponsored.
"I've wanted a Sleeper feather-trim pyjama set forever but until this year haven't had a proper excuse. Now, with Christmas and New Years likely being scaled back celebrations, turkey Marabou feather-trimmed jammies are the perfect look for at-home glamour." Jenny Proudfoot, Features Editor
