    do you know much about her professionally or personally?

    Calendars are nice, calendar club usually have a vast range for lots of tastes, sizes and they have diaries and other stuff too.

    Maybe a nice mug? - dunnes, home store and more, woodies, tesco, etc would have a nice range, including seasonal Christmas ones. You can also get all those travel mugs in most of the same shops too.

    Maybe a nice scarf and gloves set?

    Debenhams have vintage stuff, like older style Kelloggs mugs and bowls and lots of other stuff as part of their offerings for Christmas.

    I saw earlier today a really cute Christmas 2016 glass bauble in Tesco, can't remember the price but it was in their Christmas shelf with the decorations. Debenhams usually in their homeware section have cute Christmas table ware like serveware, placemats, bowls and dishes. You'd find similar in Home Store + More, Tesco, TK Max, Meadows and Burn, Dunnes.

    TK Max have some nice home ware stuff.

    You can get lots of really nice throws in Pennys for about €9, also you can get lovely throws in Home Store + More and other department stores like listed above, anything from between €10 - €30. I love throws, I've been given them as gifts but I think they're great like while sitting watching a film, or at the computer, just to wrap around me. Can't go too wrong and the ones in Pennys I have are decent quality and wash well.

    If the worst came to it maybe a One for All gift voucher to the value of €20.

    If she drinks wine she might like this

    I bought one for a secret Santa last year along with a bottle of wine and she loved it.

    Clarins Hand Cream is usually well received.

    Bottle of Baileys?
    Meadows and Byrne have nice bits, these little bowls are beautiful and could be used for lots of things from dips to tea lights
