But this christmas season they have a fantastic collection of winter treats. My particular favourites are these wonderful Noel tea light holders.

Classy and feminine, the ’Maggie’ clutch bag is handmade from luxury black satin with a fabulous red chiffon bow. To finish it off a stylish black bangle not only looks great but makes it easier to hold. And not wanting to be upstaged the internal lining has a black and white polka dot pattern – very retro!
This fabulous bag usually sells at £40 but the good news is that we have one to give away to a lucky winner courtesy of kittyandpolly.co.uk.
To enter the competition, all you have to do is answer a very easy question:

My Gift Idea of the week is very inventive and a must for all ladies to have.
They are being promoted as a comfy way to wear shoes at the end of a long party night out, but I think these would come in very handy at plenty of other times too. Maybe after a long day shopping or when you have to stand for long periods of time – at a wedding for instance.

You can still order your bunch of blooms in time to give your mum a smile – wherever she is in the world.

I love finding little niche gift shops online and I have just discovered a real gem. Sallyjo.co.uk is a lovely boutique offering gifts hampers as beautiful presents for lovely ladies.
Choose from a selection of gorgeous gifts, or select a ready made hamper if you are spoilt for choice and can’t make up your mind.

If you don’t want to spend a fortune, or have a limited budget this month but need to get a quick last minute pressie for your mum or a friends birthday, this Lotus Flower is a great bath plug.
It’s a cute accessory that any girl would love to see when she takes a soak in the bath.

I bought my own mum this Name A Rose gift set for her birthday last year and realised what a fabulous gift idea it was for Mother’s Day and too.
Rather than get a bunch of flowers that’ll last a few days, get her a rose that’ll last forever!
