Christmas is in less than two weeks, and you probably haven’t even bought a single gift yet, have you? Tisk tisk. Thanks to online shopping, long gone are the days of fighting through department stores during the post work rush, although I’m sure that still happens.
Either way, perhaps (hopefully) we can help.
Majid Al Futtaim Digital Gift Card
Gift cards can be seen as a lazy gift, but when the card itself covers practically every mall in Dubai and over 5,000 stores – Mall of the Emirates, City Centre Mirdif, City Centre Deira, just to name a few – this is the easiest homerun you can give anyone this Christmas.

CDLP Robe
Sweden is a cold place. Naturally, its countrymen would have cracked the code for being the snuggest under, or above, the covers in winter (or if you just want to walk around the house like Tony Montana).

WHOOP
The most advanced fitness tracker on the planet monitors sleep, recovery, and overall health, weighs next to nothing, and just received massive investment from Cristiano Ronaldo (I’d take fitness advice from him).
Get it here.
American Psycho
The novel is as notoriously iconic as the Christian Bale led film adaptation (let’s please forget that they’ve just announced a remake that literally no one asked for). Still, Bret Easton Ellis’s controversial masterpiece started it all, and his vacant, icy prose deserves your attention. Besides, don’t you want to fit in?

La Prairie Skincare
The Rolls-Royce of skincare, rumour has it that if you can afford it, you’ll start glowing like Brad Pitt in Troy. After all, we know how diligent the Swiss are with their watches, so it makes sense they’d give the same dedication to skincare.

LEGO McLaren
Not just an excellent toy and stimulating activity, but assuming you have the discipline to refrain from opening the box, it can also be a very lucrative investment. Don’t know what I’m talking about? This might explain.

Henry Jacques Perfume
Arguably the most luxurious perfumery on the planet, when considering the amount of time, dedication, and intricate ingredients that go into every bottle, nonetheless the magnificent bottle itself, the price really isn’t that shocking.
Get it here.
Bon Charge
As the world’s largest platform for science-backed wellness products, Bon Charge is an award winning bio hacking platform providing at home solutions across sleep, health, beauty, and wellbeing.

Suit Supply Penny Loafers
Made in Italy, this contemporary spin on a timeless classic are equally Danny Zuco and a biker jacket as they are dinner at the Ritz in a three-piece-suit. You really can’t go wrong, and you really should own a pair.
Get them here.
ZEGNA Cardigan
You can never have too many cardigans, just ask Steve McQueen or Logan Roy. And something about the extra chunky neck just adds that lion-like mane to your frame, making you look even more powerful.
Get it here.
Nespresso Machine
They have countless machines to choose from, all of them excellent. There’s something very therapeutic about making your own cup of coffee. Only thing missing is a good cardigan (wink).

Malo Baby Onesie
Know any soon-to-be/recent parents? Give them this and they’ll love you forever. And besides, what baby doesn’t deserve to be wrapped in the most luxurious cashmere onesie from Italy?

Gucci Sunglasses
These are perhaps the cockiest shades around that are still accessible without appearing like you desperately want to be noticed, even if that is the case.
Get them here.
Fender Stratocaster
Is Fender the greatest guitar maker of all time? Well, considering it was the axe of choice for both Jimi Hendrix and John Frusciante, that’s enough convincing for me. And if you don’t actually play guitar, at least you can hang it in your bedroom to make girls think you’re cooler than you actually are.
Get it here.
Versace Reve Pen
Get it if only for the sole purpose of writing that one love letter to that one girl that got away. The luxurious instrument in your grip will add a romantic weight to the letter one can’t describe, only feel. And if you have no long lost love, write your mom a poem telling her she did a good job.
Get it here.
Santoni ‘Easy’ Chelsea Boots
A new era of a classic staple, these contemporary, Italian-made Chelsea boots weigh less than 300g, and have a memory foam insole. Orange is the new red, at least in terms of soles.
Get them here.
Hanes ‘Beefy T-shirt’
You can never go wrong with a white t-shirt, but be weary of flashy brands adding several zeros to, what should be, a simple and affordable staple in your closet. The Beefy T-shirt is a thicker, heavyweight material so it feels much more luxurious than the price tag would insist, but you’d never know.

Merry Christmas.
