budget vs bougie vs atas - gifts for colleagues 🎁

is your workplace or department hosting a secret santa/gift exchange? now that work is at least in hybrid mode & we're seeing our colleagues more often, ensuring that you pick the right gift is super important 🥹 based on the types of colleagues in your team/department, here's some gifts that i'm recommending 👇🏻

🎁 for colleagues getting a BTO/house gifts

• budget gifts: aesthetic cups, vases & decor items that can be easily found on taobao and shopee 😉

• bougie gifts: the portable washing machine is a super in-thing now so definitely a good gift to consider

• atas gifts: if you're close to your colleague, gifting a mahjong set means you can go over and play to win some back too 🤪

🎁 for the environmental-conscious colleague or the colleague who dabaos alot

• budget gifts: reusable bowls, straws & utensils make great gifts

• bougie gifts: a durable flask goes a long way in helping their sustainability efforts

• atas gifts: the BTV bag that's functionality & reusable can be used as a lunch bag 😬

🎁 for the colleague who's a mum

• budget gifts: jute bag is in trend now & every mum carries it, so gift it to elevate her style 💯

• bougie gifts: the airbot vacuum will lighten her load at housework + scarf to elevate her style 👀

• atas: the picnic mat from OSN is perfect for weekend trips with her family 🥰

🎁 for the colleague who's a fitness junkie

• budget gifts: activewear from shopee is super affordable yet at good quality 😱

• bougie gifts: a branded duffle bag & waterbottle are essentials for workouts, so he/she will definitely appreciate 👍🏻

• atas gifts: if your colleague does yoga, consider the manduka mats because they're used in many studios & hence a perfect workout companion at home

🎁 for the colleague who's a beauty junkie

• budget gifts: the vainpot needs his/her mirror, comb & face mist to stay sharp throughout the day 🤪

• bougie gifts: if you know his/her skincare concerns or makeup routine, consider the gift sets at sephora!!

🎁 for the colleague who's a tech geek

• budget gifts: the desk organiser is a super useful tool to ensure clutter-free desk 🤩

• bougie gifts: the wireless charging dock & wireless portable charger are definitely useful stuff for everyone else too! but if you know the preferences of your colleague in terms of mechanical keyboard, you can consider getting one - warn you of the clicking sounds first 🌚

🎁 for the male colleagues

• budget gifts: i know male colleagues are super hard to buy gifts, so trust me a phone stand is definitely handy for them

• bougie gifts: a coffee mug is something that most men can't live without, or at least that's what i believe. whereas the bellroy desk caddy is super functional - good for cable management and keeping everything organised 💯

• atas gifts: work backpacks are essentials for male colleagues who travel and move around alot too

🎁 for secret santa with colleagues

• budget gifts: suitable as generic gifts & gender-neutral, scented candles & the heating coaster are great ideas to consider

• bougie gifts: if you're not that close to your colleagues or unsure of what they need, just go for the safer options - the body shop & bath and body works are my favourite places to drop by

i hope this gift guide comes out just in time for you who's shopping for gifts for your colleagues! 🙆🏻‍♀️ are there any colleague personalities that you need to gift but unsure of what to gift? let me know in the comments & i'll provide some recommendations 👇🏻
