Purple
I love purple at xmas, maybe it’s the influence of the leggings I wore in my latest outfit post, or maybe because it reminds me of chocolate, mmm! Either way, it’s a nice modern Christmas colour choice. I’ll be carrying my Brit-Stitch leather clutch with a personalised keyring which you can pick up in a matter of seconds in the Cambridge Satchel Factory in Seven Dials for a last minute pressie. Both are made in Britain too!
On Christmas eve I’ll spritz my usual perfume – Loverdose by Diesel and serve up the drink of the season – a Glitter Ball (glittery J2O with Disaronno!) whilst burning a gorgeous lychee Voluspa candle for a luxe evening in!
White and Gold
There’s nothing as fresh as lots of white and gold baubles, or a cheeky little animal decoration! I’ll be keeping the house smelling bloomin’ devine without needing to bake by popping a Canova Kew Gardens Cinnamon candle and ‘Fireside Treats‘ Yankee candle on my mantle piece and a Molton Brown hand lotion by my sink. Very posh.
If you need a last minute gift, you can’t go wrong with Lush (always my school friends’ go-to shop for Secret Santa!) where they’re doing easy peasy gift boxes.
You’ll undoubtedly be instagramming till the reindeers come home, but why not make your xmassy memories a little more long lasting my printing them with Printic? It’s a cute app that I used for my best friends birthday. Just download it to your phone, upload the snaps and wait for postie to bring ‘em to your friends door!
Red
It’s classic and if Santa can rock it every year then so can we! I’ll be donning my own hand-made sequin scrunchie for Christmas day and luckily there’s one left in my shop for you! Pop a red apple candle along side glittery pine cones and set out some festive choccies by Hotel Chocolat to make your home cosy. Though I’m sure they’ll be gone in seconds!
I can’t wait to try out these House of Holland for Elegant Touch nails for xmas day too, isn’t the whole collection bloody brilliant? Have you seen it?
So those are my festive Christmas colours. What colour scheme you’re going for? Good luck for those poor souls who still ‘need’ to dash out and pick up pressies!
