His & Hers shares some seasonal gift inspiration from independent retailers at the Royal Albert Dock and the Titanic Hotel…
The Nest – Liverpool Christmas Hamper (£37)
Everyone loves a Christmas hamper! What better than this Liverpool themed luxury tea-time one which is brimming with goodies. Expect 2 bone china mugs with a waterfront illustration. Add a 100% cotton designed tea towel, a 50g pouch of Liverpool Blend loose leaf tea and a solid milk stirrer with marshmallows by award winning local The Chocolate Cellar.
Lost Soles – Red Gorilla Hoodie (£65)
Popular men’s clothing brand, Lost Soles, have developed a cult following for their graphic printed t-shirts, hoodies and tracksuits. Their oversized hoodies are the must have loungewear for 2020, with the exclusive Gorilla hoodies a huge hit. Keep an eye alert on their Instagram to find out when the dock shop and online store is being restocked so you don’t miss out.
Leather Satchel Co – Chestnut Brown and Racing Green satchel (prices start at £147)
A beautifully-made bag from the UK’s oldest satchel maker is sure to put a smile on any recipient’s face. Their chestnut brown and racing green satchel combines Christmas colours with quality leather and timeless style. Our esteemed editor has a beautiful leather item from Leather Satchel Co which she treasures.
Liverpool Pictures – Shankly Gates, Special Limited Edition Print by Ian Fennelly (£59.99)
Championing local artists and the impressive talent of Liverpool and beyond, Liverpool Pictures is an art-lover’s haven of limited edition prints and stunning artwork. The Shankly Gates limited edition print is the perfect gift for LFC fans and enthusiasts.
Tate Liverpool shop – Andy Warhol Memory Game (£12), Alphabet of Arts Mugs (£18)
Offering an enviable range of stylish gifts from beautiful prints to nostalgic games, the Tate shop is a haven for art and design lovers. The Andy Warhol memory game is perfect for Christmas Day fun with the family. The Alphabet of Arts mugs are part of an exclusive collaboration with artist Archie Proudfoot. Every letter is designed in response to an artist or movement. We consider ourselves lucky to have the Tate, and celebrate all those meticulously curated exhibitions.
Lunyalita – Padro Blanco Vermouth (£17.95)
This bottle of aromatized fortified wine has taken Spain by storm in recent years, so it’s no surprise Lunyalita has a variety of the finest vermouths available in their deli. The Padro Blanco Vermouth is in a stunning turquoise and gold bottle; a great gift for drink lovers looking to try something different. We have happy memories of delicious meals at Lunylita with those breath-taking views of the Dock, and a dazzling drinks menu. So the idea of sampling their Vermouth and that turquoise and gold bottle, what’s not to love, is beyond tempting.
Titanic Hotel Liverpool – Stanley Dock: Maya Blue Wellness All About You Voucher (£120)
A spa voucher for Titanic Hotel’s stunning Maya Blue Wellness is the perfect gift for someone who could do with relaxing and unwinding. The voucher includes two treatments, the ESPA Optimal Skin Health Facial and ESPA Personalised Back, Neck & Shoulder massage, plus a delectable afternoon tea in Stanley’s Bar & Grill. His & Hers has been lucky enough to luxuriate in these treatments and they come totally recommended.
