I need to buy a new baby gift for a young couple first baby. They are very modern trendy, think instagram aesthetic type.
I have no clue! Budget probably £75 max (£50 max would be better)
They are quite well off so like luxury things. I was thinking a fortnums hamper of treats.
But I'd like something more for the baby as well. It's a girl. When I say they are instagram aesthetic, I don't mean they'll post the gifts on there , (they have very private social media and not much) I'm just using that to say they are up with all the latest trends. Any help would be great!

The Etta Loves sensory items are lovely, bold prints to help baby’s development.

Is anything practcal out of the question then?

When DD was newborn I would have appreciated a meal cooked for me then washed up afterwards. The last thing I was interested in was anything "trendy".

When you say trendy, do you really mean expensive?
