Sweet Lord it's getting close to Christmas and, if you're anything like JOE's buddies, you still haven't even started thinking about doing your seasonal shopping just yet.
Fear not though, as JOE has you covered with this great gift guide for your gorgeous girlfriend. We've put together five perfect presents that you can get for the (current) love of your life...
All four series of the award-winning Irish gangland series Love/Hate are now available to buy and perfectly qualify as the ideal "it's a gift for you darling but it's secretly a gift for me too." Just make sure you don't say that out loud though.
Set against the backdrop of recession-hit modern Dublin the excellent series is an epic story of the lives and loves of criminals who work in the city’s drug gangs – the pressures they are under, their hopes and dreams, the dangers that they face and the innocent lives they destroy in a ruthless world of paranoia and betrayal.
All sounds like a bit of a laugh alright...
These chic shoes will add a touch of sparkle and Breakfast At Tiffany's class to your lady's evening look this season. Believe us, we we've tried them on so we know what we're talking about... purely out of research of course.
And don't worry that there's only one shoe shown in the picture. When you buy them there will actually be two included.
A trip to the spa is seen as the ultimate indulgence… this is why it makes the perfect gift. Plus, it makes way more sense to get a professional to do all of the hard work instead of you trying to dish out one your woeful 'fast judo chop' back rubs that nobody likes to receive.
Trust us, your better half will undoubtedly appreciate a massage or a manicure and, what's even better, the Spa are currently running a deal at the moment where, if you buy a €100 voucher, you get a €25 voucher free so

Perfect timing for Christmas.
The wise ladies of
Her.ie have reliably informed us that, along with the killer heels we've suggested above (it's OK, we're not wearing them anymore), what every girl wants this Christmas is the perfect tan.
A tan? At Christmas? We don't claim to understand the girls of Her.ie, but we do trust them implicitly so when they tell us that something is great, you can be sure it is.
As the JOE lads know, it’s very difficult to achieve a nice tan without crossing over into the smelly, fake orange bracket, and that is a look that your lady friend will want to avoid at all costs. Especially in the depths of December when Ireland is cold, wet and windy… which is not conducive to tanning so a natural look is best.
The terrific tan bag from Tan Organic is a definite winner as it offers a tan, body oil, exfoliating glove and a tanning glove for €39.99. This is a brilliant bargain as buying the products separately would cost you €79.96.
According to the official description of the Beauty fragrance from Calvin Klein, "the feminine, sophisticated fragrance opens with top notes of Ambrette Seeds, middle notes of Jasmine and dries down to base notes of Cedarwood."
We're not too sure what that means because here at JOE we don't speak fluent bullsh*t, but what we do know is that it smells really, really, really, ridiculously nice.
