What to get for 13 year old DD

She has all the gadgets she will ever need - iPhone / iPad / Nintendo / Oculas / Kindle / Lucky Voice etc.

She is not interested in clothes or trainers.

She's not arty or creative.

I usually like to buy one big present and some bits (hence all the gadgets) it she says she doesn't need a laptop and I'm at a loss to think of anything else.

She had a big party in the Summer and got tons of jewellery, experiences (driving lessons, perfume making etc.) so I literally can't think of a single thing to get.

We are spending Xmas with family with small kids who will have lots of presents to unwrap so I want her to have some bits rather than just giving her money which she'll not actually spend.

Ghd hair straighteners- seems to be what most of my DD and friends want!! Maybe she'll stop borrowing mine 😆

Could you book her a day out for her main christmas present, London / London Theatre show ( presuming your not from London ) then little presents, candles, fluffy socks, new bedroom accessories?

Have you asked her?

My 13 year old is a typical teen for her age so maybe not relevant to your daughters tastes but I'd be shocked if she didn't want an Oodie. Does she have a hollywood mirror and led strip lights? LUSH bath bombs?

Mine is getting roller skates, oodie, clothes, makeup, nintendo switch game, bedding, pyjamas anime books and dvd set, books, friends crochet set, scrapbook set, diamond art set, anime merch, flat lay co makeup bag and giant scrunchie sets, silk pillowcase set, jewellery, bath bombs. Probably some cheap craft sets too.

If I had a bigger budget i would get her a Friends lego set, experiences, bubble tea set - which I think I will buy anyway as a december treat, friends hot chocolate tree, korean/japanese snack hamper, big lush set, gift cards for wagamamas/costas, fashion design stuff.

And personalised phone case.
