Gift guide for Men

As soon as the Christmas season rolls round many of us find ourselves in the position of what the heck do we buy for the males in the family?! So i have decided to put together a gift guide on what gifts would be great for your type of guy :)

The traditional man:

Vintage shaving set- my brother got one of these a couple of years ago and absolutely loves it. It's one of those ones your grandad would have used before razors and i think for a traditional/ vintage lover kind of guy this would be a great present.

Clay pigeon shooting session- I recently saw this on the programme Made in Chelsea and thought this would be a great idea for a present for a male.

Wine tasting session- again my brother recently did this and really enjoyed himself so if you know of any budding wine connoisseurs this would be great for them

Vinyl Record player- for anyone looking for a music fanatic this could be a great present. I know that my dad and grandad have a lot of old vinyl that they can't play anymore and would get a lot of use out of one of these. Just as a note these are more on the expensive side so if your on a budget this may not be the option for you.

Car racing days- My brother told me about this one and i thought most males would love this. For this one you can drive expensive cars around a race track or hire out a car for the day. Knowing my dad and his obsession which James Bonds cars i bet he would be chuffed with this as a present.


The New man:

 Manicure/pedicure- as much as they don't want to admit it every man has a feminine side and i think that for a man that likes to be groomed this would be a prefer gift.

Massage- no one can resist a good massage

Aftershave- ahhh the trusty man perfume. I feel like this is the go to present for any female that doesn't have a clue what to get their man. Even if it is a bit of a last resort present many men now love their scents and would be pleased with getting this.


The Traveler: (great ideas for young men wanting to experience what the world has to offer)

Back pack- Every going traveling needs a good back pack and these are really easy to find as well

Hiking boots- depending on the type of travelling the male is doing these could come in handy

Journal- when my brother went travelling he took a journal with him and documented everyday so that if later on in life he wanted to remember a specific day of the trip he could look back and jog his memory of the amazing things he experienced.

Camcorder- another option to let them document their trip however this is more expensive and bigger to carry around

Sun glasses- every traveler needs a good pair of sunglasses


The Geek:

Ipad/Kindle/laptop ext- these are quite expensive objects so if your on a budget this isn't the one for you

Bag/case: this is a great gift that means they can store all of their expensive gadgets in a safe way

Remote control car/helicopter- this is one of the options I'm going with this year as you can get these everywhere and at a good price.

Books- Again this is a good present at a good price


The music man:

Concert tickets- may be a bit late to get tickets now but still a good idea


vinyls/ record player- again a great present for a music lover

Headphones- easy to get and at good prices (skull candy and beats are some good brands)


And last but not least the
Film buff: Box set, Camera
Newyorker: Coffee machine
Fashionesta: Clothes, Shoes, Watch, Cufflinks
Sportsman: sports clothes, equipment
Chef: cook books, cooking equipment

Hope that covers every type of man, if not then i tried :) Hope that gave you readers some inspiration and if you liked it then i would love it if you followed my blog on bloglovin.
