In the words of companions across the world, gifts are never expected but always appreciated. With Christmas fast approaching, KLE Collective member Amelia Swann ensured her spot at the top of Santa’s nice list with the ultimate KLE kinky gift guide. 

 

Alternative title, how to be Daddy 101. 

Take inspiration from the KLE Collective’s 2021 kinky gift guide to put a smile on your favourite companion’s face, or to treat yourself to something new and shiny. Receiving gifts is definitely our love language, and to quote the great Eartha Kitt, we’ve been awfully good girls all year…

 

Lingerie

It can be difficult to find high quality, size inclusive fetish-wear, and here at KLE, we’re not really fans of brands who size out at a UK 12. However, luxury leather purveyors Marie Mur make gorgeous harnesses up to a 4XL – we’re particularly taken by the gorgeous Milena set

Or, if sustainability is your thing, why not explore the glorious creations of Broke Boutique, who make handmade luxury items from reclaimed materials. Whilst they stop at an XXL, if you fall outside of their size range, they offer a free made-to-measure service on all items. We’re entranced by everything they make, but the Ursus belt really catches our eye. 

If you’re looking for something a little more soft and lacy, we’d be remiss not to mention long time KLE favourites, Playful Promises on our kinky gift guide. Founded in 2004, this London based brand now makes over 80 bra sizes and stocks over 90, as well as UK dress sizes 8-28 / US 4-24. Unlike some brands, they’ve always embraced the sex work community with open arms, and we love them for it. From retro classics to contemporary designs, they’ve got a real diversity of styles – can you imagine waking up to this 50s inspired delight on Christmas morning?

 

Sex Toys

Continuing the theme of sustainability from lingerie to sex toys, take a look at this flogger made from recycled bike inner tubes. What would a kinky gift guide be without one? Vegan sex toys can sometimes be a little insipid, or made from unsustainable plastics, but this ticks the boxes on all counts. Vicious, beautiful, and good for the environment. What more can we ask for?

Here at KLE, we’re firmly of the opinion that sex toys should be enthusiastically *ahem* embraced by all genders, and what better way to do that than with the magic of sex tech. The Handy is a next level stroker, with a slick design and powerful motor. It’s also compatible with different services such as Video Sync, Remote Control and VR, which makes it perfectly designed for kinky power play. We can’t imagine much hotter than having total control of your orgasm via the power of technology, making you squirm and moan at the touch of a button.  

Or, if you’re after something truly futuristic – we would like to introduce you to the magical world of VR porn. If you haven’t experienced this yet – trust us when we say, you definitely want to. It’s a little hard to describe because it’s truly unique, so you’ll have to buy the Occulus Quest, subscribe to Sex Like Real, and find out for yourself…

 

Food & Drink

Honey for your honey? Sorry, sorry…but if your lover has a sweet tooth, they might appreciate a gift from Local Honey Man, who sell pure unpasteurised 100% British honey. As well as making a beautiful and delicious gift, the sale of this honey helps to protect the UK’s vulnerable bee population. And you can’t spell BDSM without bees…(we promise we’ll stop now). 

Dark Sugars have been making luxury chocolate creations since 2013, and specialise in bringing the culture of West African cocoa production to Brick Lane. Chocolate might be a cliche, but for good reason. And when they look and taste this good, we promise no-one will complain if you turn up with a box of something sweet.

Or, if you’re looking for something a little stronger, why not indulge in a bottle of Próspero? Stella Anguiano, the name behind Próspero Tequila is one of Mexico’s premier female Master Distillers, and the creator of this Tequila. From the bottle and label to the spirit inside, every element is lovingly handmade, inspired by the label’s commitment to quality. 

 

Candles

We believe a key element to a perfect kinky scene is creating the right atmosphere, something all of our members are experts in. This means thinking about the details, from picking a perfect playlist, getting the lighting right – and we find candles are an easy way to add a sense of occasion to your evening. Plus, everyone looks better bathed in the soft glow of candlelight. These soy-based candles from Our Lovely Goods make the perfect gift for a companion who pays attention to every moment.

However, if your love of candles is less olfactory and more masochistic, then we’d also highly recommend these for wax play. Nothing says Christmas Eve like dripping hot wax on each other in front of an open fire, right?

 

And, if all else fails, remember, there’s nothing kinkier (or more festive) than the gift of an orgy – so gather your favourite KLE members together this December and let them help you celebrate a very strange year in the best way possible.
