What I Got For Christmas

It's been almost a week since Christmas, the Quality Street have been demolished, the tree is coming down and I finally have some time to appreciate the gifts I received this year. I know these types of posts are a bit of a Marmite subject, but I love them so I decided to put out my own one.

The Ultimate Cosy Winter Evening

If you follow me on Instagram then you will probably have noticed that I'm not exactly a party girl, I'm all about the cosy nights in, I like nothing more than a good pamper with a pizza in the oven and my favourite Christmas film on TV (Love Actually, of course). By now I think I've found the perfect formula for a relaxing festive evening, so I've put together a starter pack of the essential steps that you can take to turn a miserable winter night into a cosy Christmas party for one.

Mon Guerlain - The Perfect Gift for a Special Someone*

If you were to take a look at any of my Christmas to-do lists from years gone by, you would notice that they all have one thing in common, "buy a gift for Mum" is always the final step remaining to tick off. My Mother is one of the most important people in my life, so I like to make sure that she receives something extra special at Christmas time, a gift that says "thank you" and "you mean the world to me". Recently, I discovered the beautiful fragrance from Guerlain, Mon Guerlain, and as soon as the scent hit my skin the search was over, I knew I had found my Mum's new favourite perfume. 

What's on my Christmas List?

We're now just a couple of weeks away from the big day, and the countdown is officially on! All of my presents have been bought (none are wrapped), so I'm turning my attention to the gifts that I would love to receive for Christmas this year. This post is more of a fantasy wish list than a list of requests, as I don't really ask my family for gifts anymore, but who knows, maybe one of Santa's elves will get hold of the link!

A Lifestyle Gift Guide

With only 21 shopping days remaining until the big day,  I'm back with my second gift guide, and this time it features my top lifestyle present ideas including some home and fashion bits. I've really enjoyed putting this one together, so let's get into it!
