A Christmas Gift Guide

With payday now a distant memory after this weekend, the 1st of December came and went meaning only one thing, my Christmas shopping had officially started.

Safe to say I’m not a great shopper under these stressful conditions and normally resort to the comfort of my own home, laptop and a nice cup of tea. However, I was forced out of my normal habitat this weekend by my Christmas obsessed friend who absolutely loves delving into the deepest, darkest and busiest areas of the high street ready to pick up some gifts ready for the 25th!

After giving in we headed into town and safe to say I was quickly sucked into the Christmas spirit and choosing gifts suddenly became a lot easier.

My mum is a huge fan of the Soap and Glory range available at Boots and likes to indulge in their luxurious bath and beauty products; therefore I opted for this great gift set complete with foaming shower gel, body butter, exfolitator, shower puff and even a handy hair towel. These products smell lush and make shower time that little bit more exciting!

As well as this, she is also impartial to a bit of bling, and these Evoke earrings seemed perfect! These studs are created with crystallized Swarvoski elements and are the ideal balance of sparkle and elegance. So if you’re going all out with glitter and sequins on the dress, these earrings will ensure no human bauble type fashion tragedies! 




Next was the turn of my 18 year old brother, who has requested a onesie, yes a oneise. I didn’t stick around too long to ask many questions! 

As much as the onesie was hilarious, I also wanted to spoil him. He’s gone off to university this year and with all those late nights and early lectures to keep tabs on, there seemed only one gift appropriate for him this year; a watch.

This Citizen Eco Drive watch is perfect for him. The stainless steel bracelet and black dial provides a classic look and can easily be worn from day to night and although classic, this watch easily has a contemporary twist with its sleek yet simple design. 





The girls love the ultimate beauty accessory of fake tan and Lauren’s Way have a great £10.00 gift set with mini bottles of fake tan and tan accelerator. Perfect if you’re looking to try the tan without buying a whole bottle! What better way to accentuate a fresh tan than with a shimmering Sekonda Crystalla watch? These fab watches are a must on any style conscious Christmas list, as this style of bracelet has certainly gained a huge celebrity following over the last year. They are available in different colours so perfect if you want to bestow upon more than one person!  





Safe to say i'm definitely feeling in the Christmas spirit now and with my tinsel decorated desk there’s only one thing left to do; what to get my office secret santa…Amy wants a Ryan Gosling colouring book. . .
