Christmas shopping can be a largely troublesome task. You may face mounting costs as you attempt to find something for every member of your family, or you might just run out of inspiration before you even start. Plus, there's always the question of how to find something thoughtful. Well, what better way to pander to the people in your life than giving them the gift of the stars?
Not literally, of course – naming a star after someone is a little old hat now. Instead, get them something they can actually use and enjoy on this planet. From luxe jumpers embroidered with constellations to velvet slippers and beautiful jewellery emblazoned with the signs of the Zodiac, we've found something for everyone this Christmas, whatever their sign.
And, if you don't think they'll be a fan of something bearing their actual sign, we've even compiled an edit of gifts to suit each sign. From Mulberry organisers for disorganised Geminis to noise-cancelling headphones for all-over sequins for the attention-loving Aries in your life, take inspiration from the stars for your Christmas shopping this year.
