Marks & Spencer has become a one-stop shop for Christmas gifts, offering everything from fashion and beauty to homeware. With prices starting from as little as £12, the retailer's vast range helps shoppers avoid buying from multiple places. Here are 21 of the best finds, as selected by an M&S expert who scours the website daily.
Top Fashion Gifts for the Festive Season
The Fair Isle Funnel Neck Button Front Cardigan (£36) adds a subtle festive touch with its Fair Isle print while remaining wearable beyond the holidays thanks to its neutral design. The expert who owns it says it dresses up jeans or wide-leg trousers, though they would prefer a slightly lower neckline.
The Autograph Pave T-Bar Necklace (£25) is a more affordable alternative to a similar £79 design from Abbott Lyon. While it cannot be personalised, its classic design is praised for complementing any look.
M&S Pure Cotton Pyjama Sets cost £12.50 each and come in designs from a cute dog print to festive red. They are an affordable present, though they only come in one leg length and must be purchased as a set, meaning tops and bottoms must be the same size.
Cosy Knitwear and Loungewear
The Sequin Grab Bag (£26) is available in three wearable colours and has already proven popular online, adding a fun touch to going-out looks. The Fleece Leopard Print Dressing Gown (£35) comes in neutral or grey mix and holds a perfect five-star review score, with one reviewer calling it "Beautiful, soft and warm dressing gown. Perfect for these colder mornings. It fits perfectly." Some reviewers noted it comes up on the large side.
The Fairisle Funnel Neck Christmas Jumper (£36) offers a subtle nod to the festive season and can be worn beyond Christmas, though shoppers say it runs a little large. Cotton Rich Wide Leg Joggers (£22) come in three colours and various leg lengths, making them ideal for working from home or running after little ones.
Suede Faux Fur Lined Clogs (£45) are new in online in grey or dark tan, with one reviewer saying: "Fabulous. Absolutely love these slippers! So comfortable and warm, from the get go! Will definitely buy these again next Winter." They are not available in half sizes.
Beauty Gifts and Stocking Fillers
The Day Fragrance Collection Eau De Parfum Set (4x10ml, £20) lets beauty lovers sample four scents in a travel-friendly format. The Star Sign Toiletry Bag (£12) can be filled with favourite beauty buys for a personalised present, with shoppers calling it "perfect as a make up or toiletry bag."
The NUXE The Iconic Three Gift Set (£12.50) contains three of the brand's most iconic products in discovery sizes, ideal for Secret Santa. One review reads: "Great little present, looks really good and perfect as a stocking present."
The M&S 5pk Mulberry Silk Slim Scrunchies (£14) are designed to reduce friction against hair, minimise breakage and prevent creases while sleeping. Fans have called them "excellent quality," though one shopper found them "a little big for a small hair scrunchie."
The M&S Haircare Gift Bag (£30) features brands such as Aveda and Color Wow and saves buyers 60%. The medicube PDRN Pink Collagen Gel Mask (4 Pack, £17) from the viral Korean beauty brand has one fan saying: "Left my skin feeling great - good value too. Would recommend." The Apothecary Warmth Hand Wash and Lotion Gift Duo (£14) is described as smelling far more expensive than it is, making it a great gift for a new homeowner.
Home Gifts for Cosy Evenings
The Supersoft Faux Fur Large Throw (from £30) is a number one bestseller, available in multiple sizes and colours. Homeware fans rate it for its "great quality" and "ultra soft" design, though one user noted "if it is on the sofa you gradually slip off of it."
The Mandarin, Clove & Cinnamon Refillable Light Up Candle (£12) features twinkling LED lights that trigger when the wick is lit. The Chenille Woven Gingham Bolster Cushion (£19.50) comes in four muted colours and is called a "very stylish" addition by fans.
The Finding Nemo™ Just Keep Swimming Tea Mug (£24.95) is part of the M&S exclusive Disney x Anna + Nina collab, offering a subtle nod to the classic movie. The M&S X Kelly Hoppen Wooden Long Serving Board (£30) has one five-star review reading: "It’s gorgeous, looks great in my kitchen, going to order the black one." Buyers should note it must only be cleaned with a damp cloth.
The Colby Rechargeable Metal Table Lamp (£39.50) is available in antique brass, chrome or dark green. Its rechargeable design makes it ideal for spaces with fewer sockets, and it can easily be moved around the home.
