Any ideas for a 25 year old DD?

I'm a bit stumped. She earns an extremely good salary and has her own home so already has all the air fryers / velvetisers/ candles/ home bits she could possibly need.

Same for clothes and jewellery and make up.

No need for any 'experiences' as she is off to see Jonas brothers and Taylor Swift next year.

So far I have bits but I'm looking for one gift, up to about £150 give or take.

Any suggestions for me please? Just looking for a spot of inspiration!

Are you close?

what about something that two of you do together? Either something you know she will love OR take a risk with an activity

My DD is 25 - have a look at beauty advent calendar threads on here
I give it to her on Christmas morning and she loves opening each window to see what booty she has got!
We've gone through John Lewis, Charlotte Tilbury, cheapy ones, and last year I got her a Liberty one as she said she loves getting products from different manufacturers
Cheapy one this year though!

My DDs love the opportunity to receive some more luxurious products than they would be able to justify buying themselves (hair, bath/shower, cleansers etc). Difficult to surprise them though as you need to know what they like, mine now give me a list!

If there's a perfume you know she likes, matching shower gel and body lotion?

Upgrade something she already has - toilet bag/ makeup bag?

When I was at a loss for my DS one year, I knew he had an American trip booked so gave him dollars in a bag of American food/confectionery items. More interesting (only slightly I admit!) than just giving money.

As she's earning a really good salary, i am assuming she might be in a role where she might appreciate a quality notebook and pen - again, more expensive than she might buy herself.

Laptop/tablet bag

Handbag & purse

I’m 25. I’m between asking for a le pliage bag for work or an astrid and miyu bracelet from my mum. All my friends want the new ugg slippers.

The ideas above are great. Even though I have a good job too I can never justify expensive toiletries or makeup but would love to receive that as a present.

That is such a good idea!

Are they ever reduced just before Christmas - already sorted my DDs main presents but might make a good supplementary present if reduced

Can you post a link to the UGGs please? They might be good for my stepdaughter! Thanks

Hmm she has beauty advent calendars, luxury make up, Uggs etc

The Le Pliage bag is a good shout though so I'm off to have a look at that thank you

Yes - the longchamp bag is decent! So I've bought that for her. She does have other handbags but I think she will like that one for work

Ugg normally do good Black Friday sales in case you’re interested!

She will love it! It’s a classic too!
