Christmas shopping in Dubai can feel like a lot. The malls are packed, the shelves look the same everywhere and finding something that feels genuinely thoughtful, not just something off the shelf, takes time.
That's exactly why I created the new Ready Set Travel Christmas Collection. Every piece is made here in Dubai and most products can be personalised with a name, initials or your favourite phrase, so the gift feels like it was chosen just for them.
Here's a guide to what's in the collection, who each gift suits, and how to put together a set that looks beautiful under the tree.
Why choose a personalised Christmas gift?
A personalised gift says "I thought about you." A name or initial turns a simple accessory into something people keep, use and remember. That's why I hear from customers who come back year after year for the same gifts.
Personalised gifts are also practical. Everything in my Christmas collection is designed to be used, whether that's on a flight, at the beach, in a handbag or on a school run.
Christmas pouches: the gift that suits everyone
If you can't decide what to buy, a pouch is the answer. They work for adults and children, for travel and for everyday life.
- Small Christmas Pouch (AED 80): perfect for jewellery, headphones, chargers or little treats. It also fits in a stocking.
- Medium Christmas Pouch (AED 120): a go-to size for make-up, toiletries or kids' travel essentials.
- Large Christmas Pouch (AED 130): room for the bigger things, from cosmetics to cables to snacks for the journey.
- Christmas Embroidered Pouches from (AED 120): festive embroidery for a gift that feels truly special.
Not sure which size? The medium is the most popular choice for gifting.
Personalised woolly hats for winter holidays
Heading to somewhere cold for the festive break? A personalised woolly hat (AED 100) is a lovely gift for kids and adults travelling to colder climates. Add a name or initials and it's easy to spot in the family photo, and harder to lose at the airport.
Surprise them with a scratch-off boarding pass
This is one of my favourite gifts to make. The Scratch Off Boarding Pass (AED 50) lets you reveal a surprise trip in the most fun way: they scratch off the destination themselves.
It's a brilliant gift for children, couples and parents, and it makes a very special moment on Christmas morning. Combine it with a pouch or a hat to complete the surprise.
Planning a Lapland trip? Start here
A magical trip to Lapland deserves a magical reveal. My Lapland Essentials collection brings together everything you need to announce the trip and get ready for it, from the surprise reveal to the practical bits for the journey.
Stocking fillers that are actually useful
Looking for something small? My stocking fillers collection is full of little personalised gifts that fit in a stocking and will actually get used. Ideal for kids, teachers, colleagues and the people who are hardest to buy for.
On a budget? Browse the Gifts Under AED 150 collection, and remember that delivery is free on orders over AED 150.
How to build a gift set
Pairing a few pieces makes a gift feel more generous. A few ideas:
- The travel lover: a medium pouch plus a scratch-off boarding pass.
- The Lapland-bound family: matching woolly hats plus a small pouch for each child.
- The teacher or colleague: a small pouch with their initial, simple and thoughtful.
- The new baby or little one: a soft personalised towel and a small pouch.
You can also see ready-made combinations in the Sets & Bundles collection.
