Still haven't decided on Christmas Gifts? Here are some ideas for the last minute shopper. Smiles guaranteed for the technology, book or art lover.

Gifts ideas for women

1.     The Iphone 6 in Gold: If she's an apple fan, than this is definitely the gift for her. This is the largest, yet thinnest I phone yet, with a new camera sensor and time-lapse video mode. The gold option gives that stylish edge.

2.     Lessons: Supporting your loved one's interest is the way to go. Purchase a short course in something she loves doing - whether it's sports, art or academic based.

3.     Extendable Selfie Stick: Let's face it, most women love taking selfies. This year, the GoPro became a major trend, but if you can't afford that, there's an alternative. The extendable selfie stick allows her to take self-portraits using her own cell phone. What's more, the stick will conveniently fit into her handbag.

4.     Kindle: This is the gift for the woman who loves to read.  The Fire HD 6 Tablet has a beautiful 6" display and fast quad-core processor.

5.     Wireless Headphones: It's time to cut the cord and go wireless. These headphones are perfect for the music and fitness lover.

6.     Travel Pillow: This will come in handy for the corporate women in your life who are frequent travellers. Or for those who just love adventures.

7.     Humans of New York Book: This book is inspired by the blog which has generated millions of hits this year.  The book is a collection of beautiful, heartfelt, funny and inspiring photographs.

8.     Jewellery:  Which woman doesn't like to be sparkling? Buy something stunning...just like her.

 

Top gifts for men

1.     2014 World Cup Official Soccer Ball:  This will make the end of the year Germany won the FIFA World Cup. Any soccer fan will love this.

2.     Espresso and Cappuccino Maker:  This is a must for any coffee lover.

3.     Call of Duty:  This is definitely the gift for the gamer in the room. But do get out of his way when he's onto it.

4.     Beard Trimmer:  2014 was indeed the year of beards, and judging by the looks of it, the year ahead will be too. Help him keep his properly trimmed and stylish. More sophisticated trimmers have built in vacuums that eat up trimmed hairs before they hit the sink.

5.     Stylish Laptop Case:  This is the gift for the office guy. The laptop is worth being protected, but why not be stylish too?

6.     Wireless speakers:  Allow his music to be streamed from any device, without all the wires. There are various styles, as well as prices, on the market.

7.     Single Malt Scotch:  Which man says no to a mellow rich single malt scotch? It will definitely do the trick for your father in law.

8.     Book:   Book lovers are always satisfied with a good book as a gift. Whether it's the new Stephen King novel, or the new Robin Williams Biography, he's sure to enjoy it.  I would also recommend Patrick Modiano, this year's Nobel Prize Winner.
