Whether it's a secret Santa present that you forgot to buy, or you've just forgotten about some last minute gifts, there's something on here for everyone. 

Pet Selfie Stick

This is a great last minute gift for any dog owners if you don't know what to buy them and you've left it too long. The pet selfie stick attaches to a smartphone and allows you to attach a tennis ball to your phone to get the attention of your pet.

Colour Change A4 Light Box

This is a great gift for anyone, as well as having all the letters with the box it also has colour changing features. You can get these light boxes from various places. This one is from Urban Outfitters who have before Christmas delivery, however, there are also some available on prime so you can get it in 2 days. 

FitBit Charge
Cost: £99.99
For a more pricey gift, a Fitbit is a great gift for those who enjoy exercise and you don't know what to buy them. The Fitbit allows them to track their daily activities and maximise workouts. The Fitbit is available from various different sites including Argos which provides a service where you can reserve the item and pay when you collect it the next day.

Belkin Tassel Phone Charger
Cost: £19.98
This on the go charger is perfect for fashion lovers as it helps to make a phone charger more of an accessory. As well as this, its a lot harder to lose a colourful tassel rather than a loose wire in your bag. The Tassel not only has an iPhone charger but it also has a USB port. As the charger is available on Amazon Prime you can get fast delivery before Christmas.

Netflix Gift Card
Cost: £15-£50
An alternative to just putting cash in a Christmas card is a gift card. However, a slightly more interesting gift card is a Netflix one, rather than ones for random shops. Also, the gift card prices range from £15 to £50 so you can suit it to the person you're buying for. The gift cards are widely available in most supermarkets and online.

So, there's our list of last-minute gifts hopefully, there's something on here that will suit everyone you know and need to buy for this year. Don’t forget to let us know what your last minute gift ideas are.

Top 5 Music Apps!

We thought it may be helpful to separate the great from the good with the amount of choice you have from the range of music apps available on the app stores. Therefore, we’ve put together a list of our top 5 music apps.

Apple Music
Apple music is one of the best music apps available with the membership not being too pricey at £9.99 a month, you get a lot for your money with over 40 million songs to download, stream and listen to you've got a lot of choices no matter what your taste in music.

Shazam
Another great app in the music genre is Shazam, for all those times you hear a song you love but have no idea what the song is or who its by, this is one of the best for recording a little snippet of the song and telling what the title is and who the artist is.

Spotify
Spotify is also a great music app for everyone, like Apple Music just more widely available as it can be found on both Android and Apple devices. Not only this is that it has a free option which has limited uses or monthly memberships which start at £9.99 where you can have many more options.

Soundcloud
Soundcloud is a great free app for unsigned music artists and listeners. It also helps incorporate a more social aspect to music apps where you can interact with your friends and send them music and only have playlists between a group, making it great for parties.

Garage band
Garage Band helps enable you to make music by turning your phone into a variety of instruments. Not only does this app help you create your own music but it also helps you to DJ with live loops and other useful tools to help you improve your musical ability.

So, there's our list of top music apps my personal favourite being Apple Music as I think it's the most effective music streaming and downloading App, not only this it is easy to use and understand. What's your favourite music App that you can't live without?
