With Christmas next month, I thought I’d do a little gift guide. This is full of things I’ve spotted and liked when christmas shopping. It’s also to help y’all out if you need a bit of help with choosing what to get for people or don’t have the time to browse around online or in shops for the perfect gift.
For the techie in your family who loves to be online on the go, the new iPad Air is a must this Christmas! Available from
Selfridges.
The Benefit Little Love Potions Gift Set is great for any beauty lover out there! Worth over £73, it’s just £29.50 at
Feel Unique!
For those who struggle to get up in the mornings, this is a fun gift. I can think of one or two people who would love this pillowcase!
I love the detailing on this Pull & Bear laptop cover! Available at
ASOS.
A fashion blogger’s favourite, this gorgeous ruby red satchel from The
Cambridge Satchel Company is not only
the perfect colour for a Christmas present, but it’s also bang on-trend for this winter.
Available exclusively (and currently on sale!) at
ASOS.
If you have a doggy and want him to look as dapper as my dog Dylan, you can get doggy bow-ties from
Not on the High Street. A sound investment if you ask me.
Chelsea Boots are a wardrobe staple for Winter…and Spring…and Autumn. I’m completely in love with the Chelsea Boots from Yull Shoes. The red ones on the left are the more daring
‘Fulham Boots’, while the black ones are the classic
Chelsea Boot.
I’m sorry but new pyjamas are just a gift necessity at Christmas time. I get very upset if I don’t get a new pair of winter PJ’s under the tree. These beauties from
Cath Kidston are everything Christmas PJ’s should be; cute, warm, and perfect for curling up on the sofa with a mug of hot choc.
The Body Shop is a really great place to get Christmas Gifts from. Who doesn’t like the Body Shop!? I completely love this Madagascan Vanilla Flower gift set, I smelt it in-store and it smells lovely.
For the man who loves to travel, this travel set from Molton Brown is the perfect gift. Not only do Molton Brown goodies always smell ah-mazing, but these minis even come in a smart travel bag!
I absolutely adore candles, and every time I go into stores with Yankee Candles I always stand there smelling them all. Vanilla Cupcake is one of my favourite scents, it’s so, mmmm. The medium jar is available from
Boots, so you can collect those advantage
points (or spend them…)!
For the style-conscious man in your life, the star wrap from Tomasz Donocik is a clear winner. Available at
The Clerkenwell Collection.
For the style-conscious woman in your life, the Guirado Design silk ‘Buddha’ scarf is gorgeous. Light and floaty and very ‘Gypset’ aka boho chic.
I absolutely love perfume gift sets at Christmas. Christmas is always when I ask my family to get me new perfume to replace my empty bottles from last year. This year I’m absolutely in love with Marc Jacobs Honey. Gorgeous smell, and available at
Boots, so you can use your points!
Every chocolate lovers dream, the Christmas Chocolate selection from
Hotel Chocolat. *drools*
Of course before December even arrives, you need an advent calendar to help you count down to Christmas! Here are my favourites…
Have you managed to do any Christmas Shopping yet? What’s on your list this year?

Aw thanks, I love doing gift guides/wish lists so much. The satchel is gorge, such a beautiful colour!
