Tomorrow is officially 1st December which meaaaaaans...IT'S CHRISTMAS! With the list of people to buy for ever-growing, it's easy to lose track of how much you're spending. Well gift-giving doesn't have to break the bank! I've searched the shops and the web looking for the best affordable options for stocking fillers for the ladies in your life. From your mum to your sister, friend or girlfriend, wife or work's secret santa, here's a few affordable gift ideas for your loved ones this year: AccessoriesLittle accessories like nail polish sets, hair accessories and scarves are the perfect way to bulk up the gifts for your loved ones, and they're a great way to personalise your presents. At the moment, Primark have an amazing range of accessories to suit everyone. For example, for makeup lovers, the monochrome and pink makeup bag is spacious and compact, which makes it perfect for travelling. For anyone into Disney, the snow white makeup bag is an adorable option. You could always fill a makeup bag with little essentials for your loved one, like a lipstick, mascara and this Tinkerbell copper hand held mirror, for a personal touch. Primark also have an amazing range of purses, like the Harry Potter 9 and three quarters coin purse. They also have black quilted coin purses with initials which would be cute for a more personal gift, and everyone needs a 'town purse' for nights out when the normal purse is just too big for a clutch bag. For your mum, sister, auntie or grandma, you can't go wrong with a pair of slippers. The Aristocats pink slide-ons are just one example. Hair accessories are also a great stocking filler, such as this two-piece scrunchie pack for that 90s feel that's everywhere this season. StationaryFor stationary lovers, writers and artists, check out Wilkos range for affordable but cute options. For the person in your life who's crap with money, check out the Wilko Budget Planner. For students, the Big Ideas notebook is perfect for project planning and this adorable set of revision cards is the perfect way to encourage your daughter or friend to revise for a big exam. The Kindness Diary is a thoughtful gift to encourage your friends and family to do a good deed and feel good about themselves. For artists and photographers, the Wilko scrapbook is great for storing snaps and cut outs. Finally, the Travel Journal includes dividers to help the traveller in your life plan the trip of a lifetime and record memories. Gift SetsAnother option to fill those stockings is to invest in some gift sets, ranging from beauty and cosmetics to beverages and home ware. For example, this set of 6 bath bombs from Wilko comes gift wrapped and ready for a luxurious scented bath. The No.1, No.2 and No.3 candles from Aldi retail for just £3.99 each and are said to be great dupes for the Jo Malone scented candles. The Studio London 10 Piece Brush Set from Superdrug is amazing value and the makeup lover in your life will get great use out of them. The Studio London 6 Piece Nail Varnish Set is also great value for money and is a perfect stocking filler for your favourite girly-girl. The Yankee Candle set from Asda is the perfect home ware gift to have any home smelling cosy and festive. Next have amazing, affordable perfume options, like the Rouge 100ml gift set. Who's For What?For your mum, step-mum, auntie or grandma, I'd suggest slippers, the candle gift set or bath bomb set. In terms of stationary, you could opt to buy them a 2019 Diary to organise events in the upcoming year. It's the perfect staple in every woman's handbag. As well as perfume gift sets, Next also offer small perfumes for the handbag which are also a perfect gift for a family member.
For your sister or your friend, I'd suggest any of the cosmetics options, such as the nail varnish set or a makeup bag filled with affordable essentials. Asda offer great drinks gift sets, such as Absolut vodka and a selection of Gins for the party animal in your life. Beauty Bay offer some really affordable skincare and cosmetic options as well, such as The Ordinary skincare brand, Wet and Wild Cosmetics and a wide variety of other well-known brands. For your daughter, the stationary options are great for any students or creative girls. PJ sets are also a great option for your daughter. Boohoo have a great range of Christmas-themed PJ sets and Primark also have a range of fluffy pjyama sets with bed socks and a matching eye mask for just £12. For your girlfriend or wife, why not get her something that smells nice? Perfume, bath bombs and body lotions are all great options for your other half. You could also get her an underwear set, so she looks good and smells good all year round.
