If you Were a 20year Old Girl would you like this?

I'm a 20 year old girl, and I'd like that!

The throw is lovely. And so are socks and slippers.

Candles could be a problem. In lots of rented accommodation it stipulates on the contract you can't burn naked flames including candles due to the number of small fires caused by candles.

:oim 20 - read way to many books - not into fashion stuff either
i would say leave out the bathy stuff unless you know she really likes it or its a perfume she really likes,
i out of all that if i was away at uni (im at home) id like the homey stuff like piccie frames maybe ask her mum for a nice fam photo or one from a family even
when i give frames i usually stick a few photos in so they can change when they like
or yeah if shes like me big fluffy comfy stuff

How about a nice shopping/courier/record type bag, one she can sling over the and is big enough to carry folders etc. I got a nice canvas one form Internationale for £5 but lots of shops have them in all materials.

Matalan have furry throws for about £20 I think - there are a quite a few around so you shouldn't have trouble finding one. Next do them as well but not sure how much they are.

I'd echo the comments about perfume - maybe give her a Boots voucher instead so she can get her own smellies or basic toiletries?

ikkleosu's bag idea is good too - Topshop etc all have bags for about £5 that are great for carrying books and I see loads of the local students carrying them.

If you're going to get a book voucher what about an amazon voucher instead of WH Smiths? WH Smiths can be expensive in comparison and don't always have the books needed for uni courses.

Well I'm 24 and a throw sounds good to me! I was always wrapped in my dressing gown/duvet at uni!

Internacionale do nice faux fur throws and matching cushions usually reduced if you have one near you?

Also as a 'stocking filler' how about a book light? You can get them for around £1 anywhere and they save on the leccy!

My student house was FREEZING - luckily my (now husband) lived close by and his rented house was really warm so i used to go there to have baths!! so i think anything that is warm is a good idea.

I got dh as dressing gown in primark last year for under a tenner and it is fab much better than mine that was 30 quid from littlewoods (present from my mum i wouldnt have spent 30 quid on it!) so i would defo recommend primark dressing gowns!

Throws are brilliant too.
i think she will also appreciate the thought that has gone into it.

I'm 21, and all those suggestions seem good to me.

when stood waiting ti pay in IKEA a few weeks ago, I overheard some young students commenting on that for christmas this year they'd like a new duvet set, hot water bottle, towels etc - things that people wouldn't really think of buying young free and single party loving students - so I think your list is great - go for it!
