MMBSY's ultimate gift guide
The holiday season is approaching, and this is perhaps the best excuse to shop online for fun Christmas gifts. Soft homewear for our couch potatoes, the cutest decorations for our deco lovers, cookery for the foodies or dazzling jewels for the girly girls. This month is all about the search for that ideal gift. To make your life a little easier, we went hunting for the best and most original Christmas gifts to surprise your loved ones. In need of inspiration to make up your own wish list? You can add one of these treasures below!
We present you the greatest gifts for:
The foodie
Christmas shopping for your favorite foodie can be quite a challenge since they are savvy about everything that's kitchen and food related. They have already managed to gather all the knowledge about what goes on behind the stove but what if we provide them with all the materials to make the most delicious dishes for you to enjoy? A win-win isn't it?
The perfect idea for this gift are Niamh's delicious baking mixes. They recently expanded their range with four new varieties: USA Bagels, Scandinavisch Frøbrød, All-in Chocolate Delight en All-in Malty Whole Grain. The ideal time to try out the mixes (by someone else) if you ask us. Is your foodie no stranger to a drink either? Then a bottle of The Macallan premium whiskey is an ideal addition to your gift. That way, after baking, you can enjoy all that yuminess together with a drink. Because after all that hard work in the kitchen (and you for buying the gifts), you certainly deserve this! If you're looking for a foodie gift in a higher price range, Sage's kitchen appliances are the way to go. You just can't go wrong with these sleek designed top of the line devices.

The one who is always cold
Everyone knows someone who's always cold. Like, always. It doesn't matter if the heat's been cranked up for hours, if they're sipping coffee or hot chocolate or even when they’re a burrito of blankets, you can pretty much count on them still being cold. So a warming gift from you, for that friend who prays that sweater weather will come sooner this season, will be most welcome.
Here’s how to show your frigid friend you care! Ellen Kegels' super cosy, warm scarves and hair bands designed for Mayerline are guaranteed to keep your friend warm. Not wrapped up enough yet? Then gift your loved one this fluffy Mayerline bag as well. All soft and cuddly, why not?

The girly girl
I have enough jewelry - said no one ever. Most definitely not by that girly girl in your friend group or family.
The collection designed by Lauren Versnick for Diamanti Per Tutti focuses on empowerment. LAUVE - an amalgamation of Lauren and Love - is meant to inspire and empower all women. Do you, like Lauren, want to pay tribute to the strong women around you? Then a piece of jewelry from this collection is the ideal gift!
Does your girly girl have an abundance of jewelry anyway? Then Cabinet by Lore Van Keer is the dream object to gift her. This interior design artefact is not just a jewelry box but a cabinet that invites you to (re-)discover what's inside: personal wonders, keepsakes and precious moments waiting to be enriched. With its abstract shapes of contemporary architecture, this gift is also the perfect choice for the interior design enthusiast!

The wanderluster
Unfortunately, there is no cure for wanderlust, travelers must do what they can to deal with it. But what do you buy for those individuals who want to explore as many far-flung places as possible? While the nicest Christmas gift would of course be airline tickets, they can be quite expensive. If you're looking for some awesome but cheaper traveler gift ideas, we've got you covered.
The super fun Freedom Moses slippers are easily packable and will bump up the vacation feeling on their next flight or that future hotel stay. Whether their destination is Italy or Ibiza, they want to feel comfy but look cute!
Is the person you are buying a gift for anything but boring? Does he/she love outdoor adventures? Then the collection designed by Tom Van Der Borght for A.S. Adventure is the gift you were looking for. Outdoor clothing has never looked so fun! Add the cool Klean Kanteen drinking bottle and they are all set for their next adventure. The collection will be available from 4 to 20 November exclusively at A.S. Adventure Antwerp. A good reason to get your present in time this year and save yourself some unnecessary stress in December!
