CHRISTMAS GIFT GUIDE: HOMEWEAR


Shopping for someone who's moved into their new home or maybe they just love homewear? 
Then you've come to the right place. Today's Gift Guide is lots of Homewear Gift Ideas!! 
There's lots of lovely Christmassy Candles and other cool gift ideas in today's post. 

The Body Shop have lots of Christmas Scented Candles, I love this Frosted Berries *Scent, It's really fruity and only £10 and right now there's lots off great offers floating around for The Body Shop so it's a great time to pick up some Christmas presents. 

I finally picked up some Zoella Lifestyle Candles, they are on 3 for 2 in Boots so would be silly not to get some. There's lots of scents to pick up and your sister or girlfriend will love these this season. I picked up the scents seaside strolls and daisy picking. 

This Candle from Gant *is a more Luxurious gift for that special someone this Christmas. It comes in a lovely gift box and is a really cool fresh scent, this would be a nice gift for your parents or even grandparents or again for a friend who's just moved into their first home. 

How cute is this mug? I love it!!! ' Your my cup of tea' It's a bargain at just £6! Chickidee have these really cute mugs with lovely little quotes on. They also have a selection of travel mugs and pillows. They also have one that says Drop it like its hot haha

I love this Kate Spade travel mug from Amara*, i've wanted one for ages. They are a great gift idea for someone who walks to work and would enjoy a hot drink on their journey. If you know someone who grabs a takeaway coffee each morning they would love a gorgeous travel mug like this one. 

Yep, that's a big copper pineapple and guess what?! It's also a money box, check it out here at Red Bubble * 

This Kate Spade notebook is from Amara *and it's gorgeous. It's a pale blue with gold leaf writing, the quality is amazing. It would make such a lovely gift to a special friend or relative. As you can see it looks great in photos, it's very instagram.

I love Happy Jackson and have quite a few bits from their range, this Girly Crap wash bag* is such a lovely gift. Perfect for your little sister or a best friend. It's such a decent size, perfect for travelling. It will fit all of your make up inside. 

I picked up this Prosecco candle from Home Bargains,  i think it was like £1.50-£2 I thought this would be a cute secret santa gift or a nice stocking filler for your prosecco drinking friends.

I had to get the Zoella Lifestyle pots, I got them on 3 for 2 from Boots and I've been using mine to store my make up brushes. A great gift idea for any Zoella fan. 

This is my Favourite Candle, it's by Neom and you can pick it up from Amara, it's the Tranquility scent which such a relaxing scent perfect for bedtime. It's a mix of English Lavender, Basil and Jasmine. 


  I hope you have got some good gift ideas from my gift guide.

INTERIOR: HOW TO MAKE YOUR BEDROOM COSY FOR WINTER



It's getting so chilly right here in the UK so I thought i'd put together some tips on how to make your bedroom cosy. There's some really easy ways you can create a warm, cosy space so i'm going to share a few right now with you.

It's starting to get darker quicker so get yourself some fairy lights, I got mine from Primark and hang them on your bed or around your dressing table or window. This just adds a little bit of light for those dark evenings when you don't really want to switch your big light or lamp on. Fairy lights make a room so cute and cosy. I also light some candles, you can get some really amazing scents in the run up to Christmas like this Christmas candle by Neom, light these around the room again for a warm, cosy feel. I like to make myself a big mug of hot chocolate with cream and marshmellows and snuggle up in my bed and read a good book for a cosy evening in. Isn't this penguin mug from Primark so cute! Invest in your bed and mattress . By getting yourself a decent bed and mattress you will get a much better sleep. There's so many different types of Mattress to choose from, from Pocket Sprung to Memory Foam so it's worth doing your research and finding the perfect one for you. Sticking with beds, I tend to stock up on a few throws, when it gets cold its nice to have a throw at the bottom of the bed to keep your feet warm. This tartan print one from M&S is gorgeous and looks really nice and snug, perfect for the winter season. I picked up a few Christmas/ Wintery cushions last year so i'll be getting these out and popping them onto the bed again. This Follow your dreams one from Dunelm is so cute!

These are just a few little tips on how to make your room warm, snug and cosy for the winter. I hope you like them, how do you make your room cosy?

LIFESTYLE: HOME INSPIRATION






OFFICE - One of the most exciting things about moving out is going to be having my own office space. I will either have a desk area in my living room but hopefully we will have a spare room that I can us as my office / overflow wardrobe space. 

I really want the house or flat to be clean and white washed. I want lots of art / prints around the place and lots of mint and grey theme running thoughout. 








LIVING ROOM - Again the living room is going to follow the white, grey and black trend which will hopefully run throughout. I do want to have some pops of colour in the living room but I think I will use cushions, accessories and prints to incorporate some colour. I really want a grey sofa. 



BATHROOM - You can't really do much to your bathroom when your renting but I want to add some nice touches to make it feel more luxurious. Were going to need some decent storage for the bathroom so send over any ideas. 



BEDROOM- For me the bedroom needs to be clean and cosy. I want a nice warm bedroom where I can go to relax. I want a nice white bed frame. I want lots of monochrome and cushions and blankets everywhere. I will have my dressing table and a big mirror - two things every beauty and fashion blogger needs in their bedroom.

REVIEW: GORDON CASTLE THE ORANGERY


I love candles I have so many in my collection!  I love this new addition from Gordon Castle. The packaging is just so sleek and modern and very simplistic. It fits in really well in my room.
This candle is called The Orangery and from the name you could have guessed its an orange scented candle. The scent is strong but not overwhelming, its quite a nice subtle scent. I think the orange scent is a really nice friendly fragrance, and leaves the room smelling clean. The candle retails at £24* which I think is reasonable for a luxury candle. The box it comes in is quite nice aswell so it would make a nice gift for someone.

The Gordon Castle candles come in a range of scents including Herb Garden and Flower Garden. Gordon Castle also sell a range of other products including body wash and bath oils.
