We’ve trawled the internet and hit the high street to bring you the perfect presents for everyone in your life whatever your budget

A survey published last December claimed that, in the UK, we spend on average £95 per recipient on Christmas presents. What a generous bunch! With this in mind we pulled together some of the finest gifting options available this winter, each item costing less than £100.

For the woman who wants nothing more than a lie-in for Christmas, there is divinely soft knitwear and gorgeous underwear she will love, including pieces by Dora Larsen. For beauty addicts there are lipsticks (Prada’s new line is a hit), as well as glittering nail polishes. For men, gifts headed for the bathroom cabinet (think fragrance and deeply hydrating hand cream) will be gratefully received, as will wearable treats. You can never go wrong with a classic flannel shirt or a woollen beanie.

A gift for the home is a good way to go too (especially if you’re buying for a couple), and this year the choices are plentiful, with everything from talking-point tableware to chic ceramics. Still struggling to decide? What about a bottle of something bubbly or a cookbook or two. There’s plenty for the kids too. Spoil yours (or someone else’s) with a pair of Crocs or an electric guitar (with headphones of course). Your hunt starts here.
