Christmas Gift Wrap Inspiration


With christmas slowly creeping up on us (yay!) I thought I would share with you some inspiration for festive wrapping :-) 

I have loved the whole brown paper look that has become popular in the last few years and adore the gold reindeers on this roll from WHSmith. It also comes with cute circular gift tags! 

To decorate my present I decided to use crochet lace that I stumbled upon in Tiger as the base of my decoration and think it gives a lovely feminine and soft look to the present. It also breaks up the colour between the brown twine that I used and the wrapping paper. 

To finish off the present I used Sellotape  to stick down a snowy pinecone underneath the bow of the twine, giving the present a lovely rustic feel. 

I hope you liked this idea and it can be adapted many different ways to your liking! 

Lots of love,

Christmas Wishlist


This is my all time favourite festive bath bomb that has a delicious vanilla scent and includes soothing cocoa butter. At only £1.95 it makes the perfect little gift or stocking filler. 

If you are looking for a perfect deep berry christmas colour then this is the one for you. Its gorgeous creme sheen texture adds the perfect finish to compliment the beautiful colour. 

I have been in search for the perfect little black bag for a couple of months now and this one ticks all the boxes. I have always been a fan of the bucket bag style and think the suede compliments it well :-) It also has an adjustable strap. 

My love for sleeping in oversized t-shirts has grown massively this year so I want to overturn my pj collection with sleeping tees! I particularly love the writing on this one. 

The crop top version of these are the most comfortable piece of underwear that I own, so I have hope that these will be just the same!. I have also asked for the Urban Outfitter's Exclusive Black Foil version :-) 

When I heard that Millie had released a book I could not wait to get my hands on it - I love these types of books that include a range of topics including style, food and fitness.

I never got a chance to see this film when it came out in cinema and have still been wanting to see it - I have heard great reviews about it so hopefully I get the chance to see it :-)

Since I got my Marble Laptop case, I have been lusting after anything marble from notebooks to iPhone cases. It has taken me a while to find one that I am in love with and this one is definitely what I have been searching for.

The caramel milk chocolate from Hotel Chocolat is my all time favourite and I thought this slab was presented in the cutest way. I may even pick one up for one of my friends as part of their Secret Santa present!

I hope you liked seeing the types of gifts that I have asked for from my family, friends and boyfriend. Hopefully they can also inspire you for gift ideas for your friends or relatives too :-) 

Lots of love,
