Is it just us, or does it seem like two minutes ago since we opened the first door to our advent calendars? Now, we're hurtling towards Christmas Day faster than we'd throw ourselves on the last pair of Manolo Blahniks at a sample sale, with only a small portion of our present shopping complete. You might think this would be the ideal time to panic, but we have another solution: Who What Wear's Great Last-Minute Gift Guide.
Instead of feeling guilty about the fact that you're not quite as organised as you'd like to be at this stage (because, let’s face it, there are lots of other things going on), we've made finding those last-minute gifts so much easier by bringing all of the chicest things from your favourite (digital) stores, all into one place—directly below! What's more, we've also had the final word on the last delivery dates from each brand, allowing you to shop knowing that your presents will reach you in time for 25 December (union strikes permitting, of course). Just call us your little shopping elves.
