Let’s start by filling up a festive classic – the Christmas stocking! A lot of brands have collections of stocking fillers but we’ve been most impressed by Ohh Deer’s extensive range this year.

Auberpeen Pin (£5.95)

Enamel pins have been one of the most popular trends of 2017. Pins make the perfect stocking fillers as they might be small in size but they add a huge amount of personality to your wardrobe.

A lot of online stores have collections of enamel pins but Ohh Deer’s is the most eccentric and pun-filled.
