Stay festivus to the maximus with our annual Brighton gift guide to cover all your Christmas gift buying needs.
As Christmas rapidly approaches, you might be stuck for some gift ideas in among all your end-of-year functions, Christmas get-togethers and work parties.
So, stick close to Church Street, Brighton and take your pick from our selection of ideas for where to shop and what to gift your loved ones this holiday season.
For mum
If your mum loves a handcrafted piece of jewellery, head to Autumn Gallery Jewellery to choose something sparkly from their latest selection.
Husk is another option for beautiful jewellery, candles, teas, hand-made bowls and cups and unique fashion pieces.
For a spot of pampering, you could give your mum a voucher for a facial, massage or mani-pedi from Brighton Beauty Therapy.
And lastly, if your mum likes a nice glass of bubbles, why not wrap her a bottle of French champagne from Vintage Cellars Brighton?
For dad
Brighton Theatre Company has a new season showing in 2018 which we think is worth checking out, so perhaps a season pass or double pass might be just the ticket.
Top Titles has a great selection of award-winning paperbacks that could get dad through the summer holidays of reading.
Another gift that dad might appreciate is some new threads from Gazman.
For your (grown up) siblings
For all the hard-to-buy-for brothers out there, perhaps a pair of runners from The Sneaker Store could appease. They’ve got big brands like Nike, Adidas, Puma and Brooks and offer a range of styles for sport as well as more relaxed lifestyle designs.
Sisters seem a bit easier to buy for – check out Mecca Cosmetica for one of their limited-edition Christmas cosmetic sets, a new lipstick or something from their premium skincare range. If your sister is an avid yogi or gym junkie, Lululemon has a beautiful selection of active wear, too.
For the kids
Smiggle is a popular choice for some fun and colourful stationery that adds the element of playfulness to pen and paper.
Seed Heritage has a great range of clothes and accessories for young kids, as well those who are bordering on their tweens.
If you have children in your family that love to go to the movies, treat them to a flick at Palace Cinemas Dendy Brighton. There’s a few great children’s films coming out in time for Christmas including Ferdinand, Paddington 2 and Coco.
For friends and co-workers
With Kris Kringles a popular way to do Christmas gifts among friends and colleagues, you’re sure to find something suitable in Church Street, Brighton.
Kikki K has a beautiful selection of gifts stationery and organising products, including diaries, meal planners and inspiration journals.
Wrapt Gift Co offers a stunning assortment of jewellery and accessories to suit a range of budgets, while Minimax has some great homewares such as vases, carafes and picnic bags – all perfect for summer entertaining.
