Christmas gift guide // Ten treats for the girl who likes bling, rings and geeky things. And burgers.

Christmas gift guide

Who’s that girl? And I’m not talking about the 80s Madge film. Nor the Eurythmics song. Although I do like both.

I’m trying to sum myself up in case you find yourself gift shopping for a gal like me this Christmas. Or maybe you ARE shopping for me. In which case: Hello Mum!

I digress. Who am I? Uh, well, I’d say I put the fun into fashion and the glam into geek. I’m a geezer in girl packaging, and have been likened to a gay man on more than one occasion (cos I like boys, Kylie and exotically coloured cocktails).

Behold my Christmas gift guide! And yes, this was meant to be just five things but I just couldn’t narrow it down, so you get ten instead. Welcome.

1. iPhone eye candy

#FirstWorldProblems – as if it isn’t stressful enough having to take your daily outfit photos, now you have to make sure your iPhone looks the part, too.

Having given the cheapy H&M version a go, I feel ready to be gifted the Premiership of iPhone covers, courtesy of that clever chap Marc Jacobs. He just KNOWS.

Marc by Marc Jacobs pink Katie Bunny iPhone cover, £40, Stylebop.com

2. Skullduggery

If you like me, put a ring on me. No, not one of those scary sort of ones… although, if you bought me a blingin’ McQueen skull ring (that’s been on my wish list for, like, EVER), I’d probably marry you anyway.

Alexander McQueen Classic skull ring, £150, Selfridges

3. Musical notes

It’s a notebook. With a cassette cover. WHAT’S NOT TO LIKE?

Perfect for adding to my towering pile of other lovely notebooks that I just can’t bring myself to ruin by *gasp* WRITING IN THEM.

Moleskin Le Audiocassette notebook, £14.95, Selfridges

4. Burger sweats

Please take a minute to LOL at my headline there.

I had to put this in, it’s SO me. A slouchy jumper made from the softest marino wool with a bloody great big sequin hamburger on the front, oh my!

But I couldn’t allow anyone – ANYONE – to spend this much on such a novelty item, however uhh-maze it is. I think I’d rather take the cash. Thanks.

Markus Lupfer sequin hamburger jumper, £285, ASOS

5. Friendly accessories

H! By Henry Holland leopard lips clutch, £25, Debenhams

Moschino Cheap and Chic leather gloves, £135, Moschino

Continuing with the novelty theme, here’s two slightly more affordable styles. There’s something about putting a cheery face complete with a pair of ruby red lips on the ordinary that I find so fucking beautiful.

Hey, you’re talking to the gal who once started a Tumblr called ‘Ordinary Things With Faces On (dot com)’.
