What to present for New Year or Christmas

Life style

A series of holidays is always vanity, joy, excitement, but also the eternal question – 'what to give?'. Money, of course! Simple, easy to remember, the hairstyle does not deteriorate, the dress does not wrinkle and all the nails are intact. However, it is vulgar and boring, and in the case of an unfamiliar person, it can be misunderstood. What to give to loved ones so as not to 'hang a price tag on them'? And to colleagues, whose tastes and preferences you most likely know only in general terms? The boss who already has everything (and even he has you too)? The answer is ready! Gift sets for men can kill two birds with one stone: this is both a pleasant surprise and a useful gift that will probably not gather dust on the shelf idle.

Globally, men's gift sets can be divided into two groups:

  • cosmetic accessories;
  • accessories (ties, pocket squares, cufflinks, etc.).

During the winter holidays, you can complement the ready-made gift set with a Christmas present, which includes cozy and fragrant tangerine-alcoholic surprises. However, such presents can serve only as an 'aperitif' to a gift set, but not as a 'main course'. By the way, we have already talked about how to choose the right wine and cognac.

What to give for New Year or Christmas to well-known men

Men are, of course, children, but beautiful or cute packaging, behind which the heavy artillery of all holidays is hidden – a lonely shaving foam – is not enough a little less often than always. When choosing a gift, you need to rely on the rule of three 'Ps':

  1. Pleasant.
  2. Personal.
  3. Useful.

For example, many men are often forced to wear a classic suit and tie to work. If there is a need to refresh the 'official' style – present a bow tie and a pocket square to match it. This is not only a way to update the classic image, but also one of the methods of giving it completeness and status.

When choosing such an accessory, it is necessary to rely on the taste preferences of the person to whom the surprise is addressed. If there are no bright shades in a men's wardrobe, then it is better to choose a tie in a classic color. These include:

  • the black;
  • dark blue;
  • grey;
  • dark green.

Young men can choose a bow tie with an ornament. In winter, unusual textures and designs also come in: a wooden or knitted accessory is a way to grab attention or create accents, often brighter than the image itself. A gift box that includes good coffee and chocolate (which knowledge workers will especially appreciate), syrup or balm for hot drinks, dried fruits, nuts and other aromas and amenities will be very useful for the New Year holidays.

And if a man has a beard – well, give him a beard care product! Such sets, unlike foams with creams, are not entirely standard and initially involve an individual approach to the selection of a gift. And an individual approach is always nice.

There would be a beard, but there is a care product There would be a beard, but there is a care product

For example, mustache wax, beard balm and hairbrush are intended exclusively for the owner of sufficiently thick facial hair. And if a man, on the contrary, desperately shaves off his stubble every day – in this case, classic shaving products – looms, a shaving brush, bowls – will help – which will help transform the daily boring action into a real male ritual that causes emotions and looks wildly entourage.

And, yes, a leather bag. How to tell if a man needs a leather bag? Very simple. If a man meets the following criteria – every morning he gets up with an alarm clock, puts on a suit and tie, shoves gadgets, wallets, keys, pens, notebooks in his pockets and goes somewhere for 8 hours – he definitely needs a leather bag. You will not go wrong.

What to give for New Year or Christmas to male colleagues

A gift to colleagues is a way to present them in a new light. What this 'light' will be is up to you. If you give useless souvenirs that immediately go home to the back shelf or to the trash can, what image will you create in their eyes?

Since it is problematic to take into account absolutely all the preferences of employees, the present should be of general purpose. For example, a shaving set with a shaving brush and cream or a shaving machine with a shaving brush and a special storage holder are good options for all men who use these items at least once a week.

Also, colleagues can be presented with New Year's gift sets-boxes filled with the following content:

  • Coffee, chocolate, cup, sweets.
  • Scented candle, dark chocolate, tea.

Such sets may contain a different number of items. The main thing is that these surprises correspond to the theme of the holiday, and the ingredients of the gift box themselves bear the character of an immortal classic.

Boss Gift

The male chef is a special case in the sense that it is important to emphasize the status here, but at the same time not to be too reverent. Since the big bosses usually wear suits, a bow tie, cufflinks, and pocket square set are fine as a gift. Preference should be given to the classics, ornaments in the form of hearts and flowers will not work. Cell, strip, small herringbone. And if the chef has already tired the whole office with his classic but monotonous look, a paisley pattern will do.

As for shaving kits or perfume, such kits would be rather inappropriate. The point is psychology: cosmetics as a gift in this case can be perceived as a hint of a careless appearance or an unpleasant amber. These presentations suggest a deep knowledge of tastes, allergies and other nuances, so they are more suitable for people you know closely.

Short but so important conclusion

A gift set for a man is a good alternative to certificates, alcohol, conditional socks or a knitted sweater. The choice in favor of this or that kit should be based on who is the recipient of the compliment.

You can give a set of cosmetic products to close people, but such gifts may not suit colleagues and friends. You may not guess with the aroma or composition, and a good gift will lose its value.
