I need to buy a secret santa present for a 16 year old girl, and I need to have bought it by next week. Does anybody have any ideas of what I could buy or get for her? I used to know her well but we have drifted apart and now I have no idea what she's into. I am willing to spend about 5-10 pound... any ideas?

Gift vouchers are normally a good bet, at 16 everything is important, no point getting jewellery if she doesn't normally wear it, bath smellies are great if she baths but no good if she showers, perfume is a very personal thing, and clothes are a no go, get the wrong size she won't be impressed!

Lush have some wonderful Christmas gifts and the stuff there is just divine. There have some Christmas gift sets from £4.00 upwards, you can get a great one for about £10.

Wow - CD's/DVD, smellies/make-up (numerous selection to choose from) tasteful photograph frame for picture of her friends, mobile phone holder, books, beaded/stone necklace/bracelet - very popular at the moment. Knowing her well in the past you must still have some idea of her tastes.
You could also find something that she can use for her hobby/ies, should she have some.
Use your imagination - am sure you will find something that will please her.

How about a diary or blank book with a nice pen?
You might also get her a personalized gift--something with her name on it.
You might buy her a video or DVD, or get her a gift certificate to a record/CD store or video/DVD store or a movie theater.
Merry Christmas!

I am gathering that you yourself is also around 16 years old. Since you both use to be friends. I would chose anything that you like yourself. Anything from a crystal jewerly box to a makeupset. What ever you see that you like yourself.

My granddaughter loved the Brittney Spears perfume I gave her for her birthday.
