13 yo girls? Can you help?

At a loss as to what to buy for my niece. It was her birthday a month ago, and I got her a Topshop voucher which went down well, but obviously need a new idea for Christmas. I have 1 dd aged 7 and 3 boys, so teenage girls are a bit of a mystery to me! Oh and last year I got her some hair styling thingy from Babyliss, and a manicure set, so want to do something different. She is tricky as she doesn't like reading, so alas books are probably out unless carefully chosen by her parents. Hoping someone can help as I need to hand pressies over on Saturday as sil & co are going away for Christmas.
Thank you!

CDs/DVDs or vouchers for these?

iTunes vouchers are available from Currys etc, good idea for a teen with an mp3 player

depends how much you want to spend. Tesco are doing an offer if you spend more than £40 in shopping you get £20 off a mobile phone. So if she doesnt have one and you're willing to spend about £30 you could get her one of those.

Failing that:

itunes voucher
something nice and grown up for her room
Venture are doing an offer at the moment - for £25 you get a sitting and a picture worth £165 (i think). Obviously if her parents want to pay extra they can get bigger

Similarly Olan Mills do makeover and photo session for about £15

depends on what she's like really. My dd is nearly 13 but is not v girly (although has all the obligatory girly stuff like straigheners, curling tongs, facial sauna etc and she does use them) but she is verging on goth/punk style things.

I will ask her when she gets home from school

Where do you buy iTunes vouchers? My ds is getting an iPod for Christmas and I was wondering how to pay for the music downloads (or not pay!).
