I’ve curated many gift guides over the years and if i’m honest I almost decided agains’t doing this one, but I want this newsletter to be different, more informal and a space to build community where we help each other.
Thus the below gift guide is made up of things I truly love. Gifts that are not only a little different but are also functional and some are just special - personal. They are all either things I already own or have on my wish list. I’ve also quizzed my husband to help me pull together a guide for men, which will be live soon.
Happy shopping!


I know Officine personalised lip balms are super popular this year but I love the combs & brushes and think these are such a great gift. The combs are practical as you can carry in your bag in it’s little pouch, they are also beautiful/can be personalised and the packaging is gorgeous. Also just a note, as it’s French, if ordering to the UK, you only have to pay customs if the order is above £135. I also think there is a concession in Selfridges if you’re in London.
