Gifts for the boys.........

Does anyone else find it hard to shop for men? Women and girls are so easy, a nice clutch or pair of earrings and us girls are happy! Men and boys on the other hand can be very hard to shop for there are only so many times you can get away with a pair of socks! So here are some other great generic gift ideas for husbands, dads, brothers or groomsman when the sock draw is already over flowing! 

The key with gifts for men is keep it simple in design, practical and masculine, unless you know the man in your life loves loud prints and bright colours keep it neutral he is more likely to love it and use it. 




T-Shirts are always a great option like I mentioned above unless you know he loves loud fashion keep it low key, if he is scared of colour grey or blue is a great option to stay away from boring black.
This simple T from Ambassador would make a great gift for any guy at any age. They all need clothes right! Find it here.




A gadget case is a great way to go if your man is into technology! For business or pleasure any guy would be happy to carry a case like this around.
Its masculine, simple and in no way floral or girly looking. Find it here. 
Laptop cases, iPad cases etc are always a great safe option just keep the design simple. Think leather, linen and organic colours. 




I knew I wanted to include a bag in this post (mainly because my husband has been carrying around the same ugly sports bag on holiday for the last 10+ years) finding one that fit the brief proved more difficult than I first thought, this one is perfect! Simple in design it doesn't have a ton of fiddly little pockets, colour is great and it is super practical. Duffel bags are a great option because they are great for travelling, easy to wash and don't remind guys of a handbag. Find this one here.



Dads love DIY gifts and this one is fab! all the instructions for this can be found Here.
Great for the kids to do for dad or grandad or for you to do for your hubby with a sweet message or funny quote! This idea can set you back as little as $5! Fill it up with his favourite sweets and wrap in cellophane or put a gift box together with some posh coffee and treats. 










With Father's day coming up and Christmas approaching way faster than anyone would like its great to have some things in your gift repertoire to avoid the last minute rush around! 


What gifts do the men in your life love to receive? Leave a comment below I would love to hear your ideas!
