I LOVE this time of year. There’s such a hustle and bustle about the place, Christmas is around the corner and thankfully it’s acceptable to play Michael Bublé music all day whilst sipping mulled wine.
But really, I think what I love most about this time of year is the feeling in the air, it’s charged. Charged with expectations of what Christmas will be like, who you’ll manage to meet for a drink, who’ll be back from overseas, what gifts you’ll give, what gifts you’ll receive, what the big day will actually be like…the list goes on. It’s a fun time but it can be a lot. So in an effort to help, we’ve put together some gorgeous gift guides.
This is the Luxe Gift Guide – ideal for those sophisticated friends and family that have it all and are a little tricky to buy for, for the reasons just discussed!
