My Christmas Wishlist

Whilst Christmas for me is all about treating my family - be it to new experiences, plenty of nice food and drink and a thoughtful present or two - I'd by lying if I said I didn't like receiving something under the tree. We all do, don't we? Of course, being together is the most important thing, much more so that how much you spend - that's a given really, isn't it? - but it's always nice to receive a present that someone has taken time to think of and wrap up for you.

So I let myself have a virtual window shop and a good think about what I might like the man in red to bring me. If I've been a good girl, of course. (I have).

I think I'm pretty easy to buy for; just think stationery, beauty, home trinkets, sparkly things or anything from Cath Kidston and to be honest, you can't go wrong!

Top row: My picks above include an A4 lightbox - something I have seen for ages popping up on my Instagram feed. I love a good motto and my yummy mummy friend Laura has just opened an online shop, Bea and the Boy, and has this lovely box stocked.

I love my Cath Kidston purse but need something a bit bigger and a bit more special, so this choice really stood out to me.

I'd love a heart locket. This one is from Pandora and I love the simply, solid design, hidden hinge and the fact it opens so I can pop a photo inside.

I love the vintage style so anything retro or pin-up inspired is a win for me. The shawl with ribbon bow is from Lindy Bop and the pin up broach is quirky and fun - would love a few pins like this to jazz up a jumper or coat.

I've seen the 'MOTHER' sweatshirt and tees everywhere recently and just love the simple, oversized design. They're from Selfish Mother and the profit proceeds go to help refugees.

I love a good pair of handwarmers and this bright pair from CK wouldn't get lost at the bottom of my handbag!

For ages now, I've wanted to try a rotating facial cleaning brush and this one from No.7 seems to have good reviews.

It wouldn't be a wishlist without Pandora, and I'm keen to start stacking the two rings I wear at present.

I've also just spotted an origami dinosaur necklace from John Greed (I have an origami elephant pendant already) which is pretty cool and PJ's and slippers are also welcome presents at this time of year, plus a few new stationery bits, like a notebook or washi tapes, would also be fab too. Oh and it would be lovely to have a leather CK bag. I'm being greedy now! My complete wishlist is over on Pinterest if you fancy a look - a girl can dream can't she?!
