125 gifts for every taste and budget

ONE OF THE MOST PLEASANT and at the same time tedious nuances of New Year's bustle - buying and receiving gifts. During the last week, we methodically offered various options - from beautiful underwear to gadgets, and in the final list we collected all of them together. It is too late to order gifts online, but many of the options below can be bought offline or find similar ones, and even with winter discounts.

10 funny and bright covers for iPhone

Stella mccartney

Another cover in the spirit of the great heritage of Salvador Dali. Especially it is useful to anyone who would like to go with red lipstick every day, but for some reason he denies himself this.

£35

Marc by marc jacobs

One of our favorite covers - on maximum swag with a touch of surrealism. In addition, the molten gold in your hands will fit perfectly into the current context of the return of fashion for luxury and kitsch.

Asos

Cat cover. Could this collection do without it? Of course not.

12 things with a unicorn

Plasters accoutrements

It is no secret that the consequences of any successful party are often bruised and abraded. So we advise you to stock up on packaging "enchanted patches" in advance - and the tin box can then be adapted for something no less magical. Inside they still promise a free toy - I want to believe that this is also a unicorn.

$6,25

ASOS Ring Holder

Most often, stands for jewelry are made in the form of trees or deer horns, and it is clear why: you can immediately hang the entire collection on such - from chains to rings. In this sense, unicorns, of course, lose in terms of functionality. But we are looking at this porcelain figure with a gilded horn and we think that this is exactly the case when less is better.

New Look Clutch

Remember the canonical scene from the “Godfather” with the severed head of a horse thrown on the enemy’s bed as a warning? This cute vinyl clutch can be presented as a gift to your best friend in such a sophisticated way. And what - personally, we would appreciate the joke ...

10 vinyl records that will decorate any collection

Taylor Swift "1989"

This year, so much was said about Taylor Swift that I want to keep silent for the sake of variety, but there is one reason not to do it. "1989" finally comes out on vinyl - and still has not returned to streaming services. On the one hand, Swift formally broke away from her roots, on the other hand, she is leading a public struggle to ensure that the music industry does not break away from its own. And if suddenly her views are close to you, there is more or less one way to express your support. MP3 is also difficult to put under the tree.

$19,89

Mica Levi "Under the Skin OST"

Micah Levy (also known as Micachu) loudly declared herself five years ago, forcing the hipsters to dance to the bizarre visionary pop gathered in the bedroom. Over time, her music, however, went deeper into experiments with academism, and the soundtrack to the drama of Jonathan Glaser is no longer songs, but chirping suites for an electronic orchestra. Dim the light, put this record - and very soon the one who is near you, most likely, will not have secrets from you.

£25,99

Ariel Pink "Pom Pom"

This year, Pink, it seems, finally decided to turn into the character of "South Park": for some reason he lied to everyone that collaborates with Madonna, insulted the singer Grimes, enchantingly criticized the top of the pop charts for Vogue and began to meet with porn model. Fortunately for him and for us, this all has a very indirect relationship to the music - in the album he, as always, speaks first of all to himself, exploring different periods of his and others' creativity, in order to try to understand what. The main reason to have "Pom Pom" on vinyl is very commonplace - it is in analogy, permeating everything that Pink has been doing all her life. That analogy, which is called "tru" and which sometimes goes crunch.

13 gadgets that will make your life more pleasant

Ultrasonic humidifier AIR-O-SWISS

If air purifiers still raise doubts about their usefulness (at least in Moscow), then everything is a bit simpler with humidifiers. You don’t have to pay the entire salary in the store for them, but it’s easier to breathe with them in a dry apartment in winter. When buying a humidifier, you need to remember that the sediment may remain from the bad water on the furniture, and it will not be possible to dry the laundry nearby. Such a portable kid AIR-O-SWISS will treat a relatively small area around it, but for one room it will certainly be enough. Plus, in a humidifier, you can insert any bottle of water and add a couple of drops of your favorite aromatic oil.

Selfie Stand

Do not be fooled, this year you are definitely googled "stick for selfie". What to do, the most ridiculous tool for photography 2014 turned out to be quite useful. Provided that the idea of self does not irritate you by your very existence, such a thing is quite useful when traveling. For socially awkward and just cautious, it is instantly no longer necessary to ask other people to take a picture of you, and with it the danger of losing the iPhone also disappears. Gaining unprecedented popularity in Asia and among video bloggers "stick", which is also called monopod, will be a good addition to the required items on the list of things to travel. The tripod connects to the phone via Bluetooth, and the camera is activated either by a special remote control, or by a button in the monopod's handle.

$19,99

Polaroid Instant Camera

For those who are bored with Fujifilm Instax, or for those who consider them to be a lot of teenagers, you can offer an instant camera of the founder of the photo for the impatient - Polaroid. Slowly but surely, Polaroid makes his comeback to the world of photography: their version of the camera for snapshots is essentially a digital camera, which is equipped with its own printer. Before printing, photos can be viewed. Plus, you can transfer them to a computer or upload them to the network - this way there will be more pictures than in one copy, and you can not worry about their safety.

10 adult toys

Ferby

In childhood, everyone was divided into two categories: those who had a ferb, and those who were jealous first. Let's be honest, sometimes it seems that the devil himself lives inside this fluffy lump, who sings something unkind, and inside he has not a mechanical stuffing, but an otherworldly force. Nevertheless, it seems that the ferbie is rather safe, so you can fulfill your or someone else’s unrealized childhood dream and finally get the desired animal. Now the language of the ferb - ferbish - can be translated using an iPhone, and he knows how to learn and dance even better than before.

Set LEGO "transcendental palace"

One of the unexpected successes of the year was “Lego. Film” - it turned out much better than one might think. There was a place for him and satire, and ode to creative thinking, really funny jokes, as well as a completely cordial story about the relationship between father and children. One of the most beloved characters of the film instantly became Unikitti (in Russian translation - Kisonka, but we will immediately forget it) - a cross between a cat and a unicorn, which is very, very not worth angry. She dwells, in an obvious way, in this very Sky-high Palace, which can be assembled from a set. To complete the picture rely also figurines of the main characters, Emmett and Wildstyle, as well as the terrible Lord of Business.

799 rub.

Bed in the shape of Totoro

The biggest gift on the list, which at the same time pulls both the toy and the interior, is a giant bed in the shape of Totoro. In her favor say two things. First of all, absolutely everyone loves the Miyazaki anime "Totoro". Secondly, everyone during his viewing dreamed of being in the place of baby May. So, if space and aesthetic preferences allow, we offer to embark on all serious and settle such Totoro at home. They also lurk their dangers here - there is always a chance that once you are in such a bed, you no longer want to get out of it.

10 sets of cosmetics that you can buy right now

Make Up For Ever Brush Set

Although we are sure that there are not so many brushes, this set of four looks self-sufficient. Its a big plus - all the brushes are made of artificial lint, which means that no one will cause allergies and you can give them to everyone. The largest and fluffy can be applied and powder, and blush, and highlighter; canted - draw eyebrows and arrows, and the rest - to distribute and shade shadows or concealer. However, even those who have similar brushes have a kit too - having two identical tools eliminates the need to wash them every day.

$65

Kit L'Occitane "Karite"

In L'Occitane stores there is always such a big choice that even a buyer with a brand and type of funds can be confused. In our opinion, it’s safest to give a set of “Karite”: there are at least two best-selling brands in it (hand and foot creams), and its fragrance is not so pronounced compared to other L'Occitane products. And we are sure that with one such gift even the owner of very dry skin can comfortably survive the winter.

5150 rub.

Gianna Rose Atelier Soap Set

The brand Gianna Rose Atelier does everything it takes to make hygiene not just a necessity, but a pleasant and even meaningful ritual. It seems to us that such a set of soap can be served not to the closest, but to the most demanding person - he is both strict and elegant. Moreover, the flavors of the GRA are balanced, but not deafening, so they won't argue with the familiar smells of the house inhabitants.

FOREO ISSA

The new gadget of the Swedish company FOREO is similar to the previous device for cleansing and massaging the face, but this time it is an electric toothbrush. ISSA is completely made of silicone, promises not only to thoroughly brush your teeth, but also to whiten them, massage the gums and take care of the environment - the ISSA charge should last for 365 uses. We already want to try this cute invention with a battery that is ready to compete with the Nokia 3310 (and are ready to accept it as a gift).

12 900 rub.

Jawbone up3

We already dreamed about Jawbone UP last year. If in 2013 Santa Claus was not so supportive, in 2014 he simply could not resist - Jawbone became even higher, faster and stronger. Now the bracelet is able to count the heartbeat, independently recognizes and records the type of training and began to measure the quality of sleep more accurately.

7990 rub.

Withings aura

Withings are known for their love of accurate measurements, this time they created a whole system of sleep monitoring. The Withing Aura package includes an application (for Apple's users, alas, only now), a large alarm clock with integrated temperature, light and noise sensors and a large flat sensor that reads movements, breathing and heart rate (the sensor should be placed under the mattress). Aura will help you fall asleep, determine the optimal time to wake up, and will use lamps of different colors to increase or decrease your level of the beneficial hormone melatonin. It sounds like a fairy tale that turned into a true story, though it costs almost $ 300.

Icicles No. 38 Hand Blown Glass Whip

As the man said, who left a review on this toy on the store's website, "first tease, then please". Whether the whip or the glass dildo looks beautiful, comfortable to touch (the fringe of the whip is made of leather) and promises to be easy to use. Add satin ribbons and a photo of Jamie Dornan to the gift box - and a set of beginner Anastacia Steele is ready.

$99,99

Jimmyjane Form 2 Personal Massager

The prettiest vibrator of this year, which the ode was sung by the editors of both Into The Gloss and American Glamor. A small, similar to the famous cartoon hero vibrator created by Jimmyjane, exists in two colors, waterproof and costs $ 150. Yes, we remember the dollar rate, but for such a crumb the truth is nothing.

$149

Njoy pure wand

Njoy Pure Wand does not vibrate, does not sprinkle you with sparkles and does not promise to give a multiorgasm, but simply is, um, an extension of the hand - and that is captivating. The minimalist sex toy pleases with its functionality (it can be washed, sterilized, used in water) and pleasantly fits into the hand with all its kilogram. We do not even know what else to add - that it costs 10 times less than silver Inez?

Jo Malone Christmas Collection

Jo Malone is one of the brands that comes to mind first when you want to make a gift. Her packaging is always elegant, and sometimes the issue with the fragrances themselves is secondary. Although they are always all right, so you can choose as a gift at least the famous Pomegranate Noir, even if any unknown. And you can also mix them and give your own fragrance, or - a simpler version - a ready-made set of a wonderful Christmas collection.

Aroma of Boadicea the Victorious Almas

Almas was released last year, and earlier it could only be found at Harrods in London, but now he has reached Russia. A luxurious bottle: a handmade shield with a Celtic cross in the center and a leather case. The composition does not lag behind, all the most expensive in perfumery - here: Turkish rose, Indian jasmine, Tunisian neroli and, of course, beats.

£495

Scent of Guerlain Le Bolshoï Black Swan

It was fashionable to dedicate the flavors of Russia this year, but for Guerlain this is almost a tradition. Black Swan - their next creation on the theme of the Bolshoi Theater, this time in honor of the 175th anniversary of P. I. Tchaikovsky and his ballet Swan Lake. The perfumer Thierry Wasser dedicated the fragrance to the black swan Odile party and chose an olfactory sandal for her. Perhaps theater tickets would be cheaper, but the aroma can be enjoyed longer.

Beautiful underwear for yourself and as a gift

Stella mccartney

Stella McCartney, in addition to the catwalk collections and accessories, has a clothesline. In addition, she has a great sense of humor that will be appreciated by all who are bored by her childhood. In this gift set "Week" seven pairs of silk panties, decorated with embroidery with the name of the day of the week. In addition, a silk bag is attached to the panties for storing clothes.

£107,50

Giuliana Romanno

This body on thin straps with cutouts and geometric print looks like a perfect swimsuit. In fact, nothing prevents lazily lain in it all the holidays at home or, on the contrary, to pull a skirt or light wide trousers over it and go to parties.

12 442 rub.

Lonely

About New Zealand clothing brands hardly anyone heard. However, the Lonely brand has become famous far beyond the borders of Polynesia and is sold on the websites of international retailers from Opening Ceremony and Urban Outfitters to Nastygal and ASOS. Excellent Lonely underwear suits girls with different proportions and costs more reasonable money than not - especially at a sale. Even the lace retro-dress with velvet inserts of the brand looks hot, not to mention the fatal options - translucent bodices made of black silk and lace or sconce imitating a bandage.

Wallet COMME des GARÇONS

It is difficult to say how many COMME des GARÇONS wallets are sold every minute in the world - obviously, it is enough to keep the Japanese brand afloat from the 70s along with the perfume line. This laconic neon version is simple and beautiful, and most importantly, it does not irritate at all with its acid tone. Inside there are three sections for credit cards and coins. It is doubly pleasant that, having bought this wallet, you will help Rei Kawakubo to continue to create stunning avant-garde catwalk collections that only a few connoisseurs in the world buy.

$99

Tiara Meadham Kirchhoff

To get a luxurious crown as a gift is worth a lot - meeting New Year in it, you will definitely feel like a queen. This tiara of Edward Midham and Benjamin Kirchhoff resembles the vintage original crown of graduates and participants in beauty contests of the 70s: remember the prom scene in the 1976 film “Carrie” (hopefully your New Year's party will be wrong). The cherry of this tiara - five huge hearts with crystals - without a doubt, a sign of great love.

$590

Belt bag Joyrich

In the summer, we told how waist bags finally won back their right to exist and stopped associating with the uniform of vendors-hawkers, as well as American tourists. Such bags are convenient and can replace a clutch: they will fit the necessary minimum of items from credit cards to powder, and your hands will remain free for dancing and handshakes. This belt bag Joyrich, among other things, is made of pink faux fur and is good for winter in terms of style.

10 christmas sweaters

Love knitwear

If there is no trace of a festive mood, and the bright windows and soundtracks from Christmas movies are depressing, you can encourage yourself with the help of such a Christmas jersey with sparkles and touching print. You can wear it, for example, at the New Year's party or save it for home January get-togethers.

£15

Asos

A snow-white sweater with a pattern of fir-trees and elks is a classic of the ASOS genre. I would like to say a special thank you to the company for the fact that most models of sweaters from the main collection are duplicated by a ruler for miniature and figure skaters. Finding well-fitting clothes has become a little easier.

865 rub.

Peter Jensen

A nice wool sweater with funny patterns belongs to the Danish brand Peter Jensen. Danes know a lot about winter clothes: it is better not to wear a sweater made of 100% wool on a naked body (it can be prickly), but unlike the acrylic from the mass market, you can not be afraid of frost in it. If the price still seems too high, you should wait another couple of weeks - this is an autumn collection, and there is a chance that the sweater will live up to the winter sale.
