Support Local This Chrissy With Our Ultimate 2025 Adelaide Gift Guide
It's been said that when you shop local, a small biz owner does a little happy dance; and what's more festive than that, right?
Sure, you could risk your life for the December 24th shopping centre scramble *hyperventilates*, but why not take a little chaos out of that list and jump on supporting some brilliant creatives instead?
From stocking fillers to all-out-luxe surprises, we've rallied up some of our absolute fave Adelaide and South Australian-based brands and bizzes worth supporting this Christmas.
Jessie Feitosa La Dolce Vita Print
We love gifting art, simply because it lasts forever—and right now, we're swooning over local artist Jessie Feitosa's bright, bursting collection. There's a heap of gorg tablescape originals, prints and framed prints that tick every price point, meaning you can find a thoughtful gem at any budget.
One Rundle Trading Co. Gala Jewellery Box
If you haven't already, do us a favour and take a squizz at the endless divine homeware and fashion gifts at this North Adelaide fave of ours. This chic colour-drenched jewellery box is the perfect spot for all those precious little gems and jewels and just squeezes into those under $50 secret santa gifts too if you're on the hunt.
Never Never Distilling Panettone Negroni
Panettone + Negroni = two of our favourite things. Juniper gin, bitter citrus aperitif, sweet vermouth mixed with a touch of orange and vanilla, it tastes even better than it sounds. Trust us on this one.
23rd August If You Mini Dress
The ultimate party dress that'll steal compliments again and again, we're a tad obsessed with the entire 23rd August resort range, but this shimmery mini is one we can't stop thinking about.
Class A Linked For Life Permanent Jewellery
After something truly magical? The ultra chic Class A Jewellers create dreamy, bespoke, timelessly chic bracelets and anklets that'll last a lifetime. You can infuse your own style with birthstones, precious Australian gems or diamonds if you're really wanting to win Christmas. Our pick? The Evil Eye Bracelet for sure.
Mercato Southern Italy Wine Masterclass
We *love* gifting an experience, and this one is a banger for just about anyone on your nice list. These classes take you on a masterclass through the most charming, delightful regions of bella Italia without the hefty plane ticket and lost luggage. With rotating experts there to help you sip and savour, this is a sweet little price point for a truly lavish gift.
Whatever The Weather We're In This Together By Jess Braithwaite
The most sunny, joyous picture book for kiddies both little and big, Whatever The Weather We're In This Together embraces all of life's seasons with the most beautiful message of love and optimism. It's under our editor's Chrissy tree already.
BODHI KODO Massage
Potentially the most luxurious treatment we've ever experienced, this 90-minute heavenly experience uses Australian Indigenous healing and rhythmic massage to melt away fatigue and tension. BODHI's stunning new Eos by SkyCity digs are pretty damn gorgeous, so why not grab a gift voucher otherwise for your loved one to choose their own pamper path?
Clare Valley Distillery Celebration Gin
A fun, party-to-palate gin distilled with strawberry gum, lemon myrtle and native pepperberry. It's joyous, fresh and something a little different for cracking open over a summer get-together.

California Crooners Club at Adelaide Fringe
Aussie heartthrob Hugh Sheridan serenading us on stage? We don't need to hear anymore. Easily one of the hottest shows for next year's Adelaide Fringe, you'll 100% go down as favourite child/colleague/bestie for scoring these tickets. You're welcome.
