I always tend to think about gift guides most around Christmas time, always forgetting that I buy birthday presents all year round. And boy, I seem to know everyone born during the summertime! Recently, I've had quite a few gifts to buy and the great range of L'Occitane gift sets have definitely come to the rescue. So, I thought I'd put together a little edit of my favourites, that should suit all budgets and tastes.

It's only four days until Christmas and now is the time that people start to panic buy the last of their gifts. After sharing my Last-Minute Beauty Stocking Fillers post, it's about time I show you my last-minute picks for the ladies! If you're still stumped about gift ideas for any lovely ladies in your life, or you're in need of some ideas for yourself, then hopefully this little guide will give you some helpful pointers.

Now that I've covered Gifts For Her Over £30 and Stocking Filler Ideas, my last present inspiration post includes gifts under £30, again with a mixture of beauty, home-ware, clothing and accessories. If you're short on money or have a lot of presents to buy and expenses at Christmas time, then these gifts are more affordable, whilst still being thoughtful and great quality.

With the big day only one week away, this gift guide may be a bit last-minute, but realistically, I leave my Christmas shopping until the last, two weeks of December. I'm all for organisation and forward-planning and I'd love to have all my presents beautifully wrapped and under the tree as soon as it goes up, but that's just not me I'm afraid. So if, like me, you've still got some gifts to buy, then never fear, this beauty guide could give you some final inspiration!
