It’s the most wonderful time of the year, which in real terms of course means scrabbling around in last-minute frenzy to find something that the object of your affection won’t totally hate when they unwrap it. Luckily for you, you’ve stumbled onto MR PORTER – there’s no need for frenzied scrabbling over here – where you’ll find this foolproof gift guide to help things go off without a hitch.

The all-purpose tote

Crafted from a mossy brown felt, this tote bag from Northern Irish designer JW Anderson is ideal for the colder months. A good size for a laptop, it’s an ideal casual work bag, and good for a day spent working remotely in a coffee shop.

The timeless cardholder

If you’ve not got a cardholder yet, welcome to the 21st century. If you do have one but need an upgrade, you can’t do much better than Thom Browne. This pebble-grain leather cardholder is printed with a woodland scene of bears and rabbits – cute and practical.

The luxury sneakers

Mr Jerry Lorenzo’s brand Fear of God is redefining what luxury means, and these sneakers are the perfect example. Marrying American sportswear references with Italian craftsmanship, they’re made from off-white calf leather and will look good with, well, absolutely anything.
