As Mother's Day is fast approaching, I thought I would share with you a few last minute gift idea's in case you're struggling to find that perfect gift for your mum or nan. First of all, you can't beat a lovely make-up set and I love this one from Ted Baker. Their gift sets are so gorgeous with hints of rose gold and peonies. The bits of make-up that you get inside the bag are even more dreamy.
Onto fragrance's and I had to add two in that my mum personally chose herself to be included in my post. Starting with 'Lovely' by Sarah Jessica Parker. I sometimes like to borrow this because it smells so good. It works for any occasion and lasts all day.
Another one that is my mum's favourite is 'Intimately' by Victoria Beckham. This is a gorgeous fragrance and get asked a lot what it is that I'm wearing. The bottle is so pretty aswell.

Jewellery is a sentimental gift to get somebody you love and Pandora is the perfect place for that. From charm bracelets, to rings and necklaces, you will find that gift for your mum for mothers day.

Below I have added more idea's for Mother's Day :
  
  
 

Time for a gift guide for the ladies. I've added a few dreamy bits in that I love and that I think every girl would enjoy. 

Starting with some beauty things, I love the Urban Decay 'Naked 2' Basics Palette as it is travel friendly and the shades are so pretty. This would be a great gift for someone you know who travels around a lot and wants to carry a gorgeous palette with them. I thought I would add a set from Glossier and it is their Cloud Paint Blush Set which would make a great gift to any beauty lover. All the colours are heavenly! (you can get 10% off your first order here.) I had to add a Christmas special from Lush and I decided to pick The Magic Wand. It is a deliciously scented bubble bar that gives you many bubbles that you can sink into and makes your skin soft too!

Homesense is my favourite place for the homey bits and bobs. I recently came across this dreamy mug in one of the stores and it was only £3, was a bargain! They did have other colours and matching bowls but all I wanted was the mug. I will try and find one similar somewhere else and link it below.
I love this Leaf Photo Holder from Oliver Bonas. I like to add a polaroid photo on the top and add it to my bedside table.

For the readers out there, I had to add The Life - Changing Magic Of Not Giving A F**k. It's one of those books that every women needs to have on their bookshelf to read. 

Lastly, a fragrance that I have been obsessed with ever since I received it and it is 'Dream' by Ghost Fragrance. It is a beautiful fragrance and the bottle is just so dreamy. I did write a full review on this if you aren't so sure just yet. You can read that here.

Some of my top picks are below :


  

  


It's that time where I share with you a few festive picks for the men in your life. Year after year I struggle to find the perfect gifts for the boys, especially as they change their minds 100% of the time on everything! But this year I feel a bit more confident in what I have found over the past few months.

You can't go wrong with a few pairs of brand new socks. I swear my boyfriend loses at least one sock to match a pair everyday. I found these super soft Calvin Klein socks from Homesense at such an amazing price. I have a feeling I could be stealing these as soon as they are opened on Christmas morning. 

Books with food recipes are also a big win for boys. I found this Shake Shack recipe book on Amazon during Black Friday so I got it on a good deal. If you have a man in your life that loves burgers, milkshakes and just the not so good stuff, then this book is definitely for him.

For something a little fun but useful, I found this Nintendo Game Boy money box and I just thought it was a fab stocking filler gift. Something I thought would be great for the inner Star Wars geeks out there, are these pyjama bottoms that I absolutely love from Primark!

If you want to splurge and really treat your man this Christmas, I would highly recommend the Apple TV. You can stream things from your iPhone and iPad. It also has a Netflix added on and Youtube so the boys won't be so bored. All you need is a HDMI cable and you are good to go.

Below I have added a few more ideas:

  

 

  

I had never featured a gift guide post on my blog before, until now. Now that there are only three more Mondays until Christmas I have decided to put together some gift guides to help if you are struggling to find something to buy for that special someone in your life. Putting small gifts into a big or small stocking has always been my favourite thing to do when prepping for Christmas. Now me and Sean have started doing stockings this year I have been more than excited. Here I have pulled together some perfect stocking fillers or if you are doing a Secret Santa for somebody, this would be the right place for you!

The Body Shop and Lush are great places for cute pampering gifts. Body Shop do some amazing gift sets which I love to buy my friends or family every year. I decided to pick up one of their Jingle Gel Rock sets which contains 60ml bottles of shower gels which can be a real treat for some people. Lush's Christmas range is just devine, one thing I would recommend getting somebody is the Snow Fairy Body Conditioner which smells of candy floss and leaves your skin feeling super soft after a shower.

One of my favourite things to receive in a stocking is beauty related gifts. For a little festive treat the Tanya Burr Cosmetics Lip Glosses are perfect, especially the shades 'Berry Picking' and 'Champagne Toast'. Or if you are looking for a little body mist then Zoella's Sweet Inspirations is the perfect scent and the bottle is pretty.

For stationary lovers, this Kate Spade Sticky Note Set is perfect for someone to keep themselves organised. Also if you need some fantastic pencils, Tiger have these Kate Spade dupes for just £1!

I have put together a list below of more gift ideas too:

christmas wshlist (2)
Fujifilm Instant Mini 8 Camera In White - Amazon // Matte Lipstick In "Glastonberry" - Charlotte Tilbury // Pug Print PJ Set - Topshop // Charlotte Tilbury Luxury Palette In "The Vintage Vamp" - John Lewis // Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate - Hotel Cholat // Mary Berry Cookery Book - Waterstones // Star Shine Ring - Pandora // Christmas Mug - Cath Kidston

The festive shopping has begun and here I am today to bring you what I am hoping is under my tree this year. Shame I couldn't add Harry Styles to the mix, but I could just hope and pray, right? Starting with a Fujifilm Instant Mini 8 Camera which I have been wanting in like FOR-EVER and I was going to buy one but it only ever comes to mind when it's Christmas. It's perfect for when you are with your family and can just take photos. And instead of adding a filter and making your face look 100 times better you can just get that nostalgic feeling of getting your photos developed and not knowing what to expect. There's also something honest about that perfectly imperfect photograph. Charlotte Tilbury's lipsticks are probably on every bloggers wishlist. Why? Because they are so pretty and classic. They have incredible lasting power and don't dry out your lips. I know everyone's favourite is "Glastonberry" which is an intense berry shade. If you buy me this, I will probably wear it and then kiss your face all over. One of the things I do love to receive on Christmas morning are new pyjamas. Seriously, once I get those new pyjamas I will wear them the whole of Christmas day, they are so comfortable and these pug ones from Topshop look so adorable. This Charlotte Tilbury palette is just made for Christmas - it's just perfect. I bet you are now wondering why I added hot chocolate to this wishlist. Well, if you didn't know I absolutely love hot chocolates and salted caramel...so them being together just sounded heavenly. Hotel Chocolat do drinkable delights. Now I am back into my baking I need to know a lot from the star baker herself Mary Berry and her book. Lot's of ladies will be waking up Christmas morning hoping to find a lovely piece of jewellery under their tree and I am feeling how they feel. I love this star ring from Pandora, it would remind me of Christmas every day. Lastly a mug to add to my collection which is a Christmas one from Cath Kidston. I love their mugs so much and this one would be perfectly to have a tasty beverage in.
