Are you a Paladin? Good news for Holy Paladin now. Their Engineers can finally rejoice, because patch 3.0.8 is bringing them the goggles that have been oddly missing from Wrath thus far. The highly anticipated Unbreakable Healing Amplifiers are pretty good, and just like the other Northrend goggles, they only require level 72 to wear. While many peoples' mains will outgrow these goggles in 10-man raids, they're perfect for breaking into raids or twinking out an Engineering alt. Along with all the usual Engineering sorts of things, the stats are:

Unbreakable Healing Goggles
1821 Armor
55 Stamina, 60 Intellect
1 meta socket, 1 yellow socket
87 spell power, 73 crit rating

If you're shopping for a Mage, your job isn't quite so difficult, and not nearly as perilous. Mages aren't picky about gifts. If it has spellpower on it, chances are we'll love it. We tend to like big sticks and fancy dresses, and Gnomish Warlocks always make great stocking stuffers. Once your Mage has reached level 75, you can take them to Zul'drak and head directly for the Amphitheater of Anguish. This is the Northrend equivalent of Nagrand's Ring of Blood questline, in that it's a series of 5-man boss fights that grants a ridiculous amount of gold, potions, and experience, and ends with a pretty fantastic selection of blue weaponry as a final reward. The Mage choice is the Chilly Slobberknocker, and it it's a great gift for any mid-level spell-slinger on your list.

If the Mage in your life is beyond the point in the game at which they would want the Chilly Slobberknocker, you might want to think about getting them this staff. It's probably the best DPS-caster staff in the game. Give them meat, lots of it. They can then use this meat (the Chilled variety comes in especially handy) to complete the daily cooking quest in Dalaran, raising their reputation. Also, gather up some companions and take your Mage on lots and lots of instance runs, making sure they put on their Tabard first.

There are some really good ones out there in Wrath, but most of them require chancing drop-rates in raids or 5-man instances, and then chancing losing the roll to another caster class. Nothing ruins Christmas for a Mage faster than losing the roll on a sweet off-hand to a Warlock. Tailors will tell you that Imbued Frostweave and Ebonweave aren't easy to come by, especially in the quantities this recipe requires. So save your pennies, gather the mats, find a willing Tailor (your Mage might even be one!) and make a pretty dress for the Mage on your list. Personally, since my job is to blow stuff up I almost always go MH and OH over stat staffs. Was weird running around leveling with a staff in Wrath. Last time I'd had one was...leveling/gearing in early BC! Doesn't mean I'm not trying to win a roll on that staff though. Stupid lazerchickens with hot dice. Gonna conjure some bird mites to chew up their feathers.

Enjoy them! And happy hunting!
