Is Pink clothing still popular? I have an annoying 13 yr old who thinks I'm telepathic when it comes to gifts! All I get is a shoulder shrug when I ask but woe betide me if I get it wrong.

So those of you who have a teen or are just more with it than me, please can you enlighten me.

Those hideous thin tight legging jean things with holes in the knees. More makeup than the cast of the Lion king. More technology than can possibly be good for you and spending the equivalent of the national debt on things with unicorns on. If that's at all helpful.
Other than that. Play it safe with vouchers for Top Shop.

What's her usual style? Is she into make-up and clothes?

My oldest is 12.5, but she's recently come out as emo- so her and her mates are all into MCR, black skinny jeans and walking around with their unstyled hair in their unmade-up faces.

(Very!) fortunately Dan

and Phil have just released tickets for next year's tour- so I was able to get OhEmGeeTheBestPresentImTheWhokeEntireWorldEva for her- but a) they're all sold out and b) your DD probably has better taste anyway.

Make up , make up and more make up !!
You won’t go far wrong with a ridiculously expensive eye shadow pallet or some knickers from pink

Oh I have Dan & Phil tickets already and quite a few bits from MAC and Urban Decay. Will check out Joni jeans. God this is frustrating, please tell me it gets better at some point??

Allthetuppences I've spent the equivalent of the national debt on unicorn stuff for the 9 yr old!

I've got mine (age 13) VIP tickets to go see Dan & Phil live with her older sister, a mermaid tail blanket, Revolution makeup (she's not into expensive makeup), a Superdry hoodie and some Harry Potter bits and bobs from Primark

My 15 yr old is getting some pink/Victoria secrets stuff and some Kylie cosmetics. She also wants trainers (but I can get junior sizes).
