Scents Of Adventure - Christmas Ideas with Aqua Manda

*Items featured in this blog post have been gifted, but all words and opinions are my own.

You all know that I love a good vintage handbag or hairstyle, and have amassed something of a collection of original vintage compact cases and repro lipsticks. So when I was approached about trying out the range of perfumes from the legendary Aqua Manda, my heart was giddy with excitement.

Christmas Wish List - Personalised Items For Hard To Buy For People

* Post contains gifted items.

How are you getting on with your Christmas shopping? I'm currently on first name terms with my local courier and postman, so I guess that tells you how things are over here! It feels like it's never ending though, and there is always at least one person who is difficult to buy for. So why not opt for something special, and get something personalised for the person who has everything?

Cool Stuff - Christmas Wish List

With Halloween out of the way, you know that that means - we are finally on that mulled wine scented, twinkle light covered road towards Christmas time. But if like me you're a fan of doing your shopping in your pyjamas, buckle up for the first of several gift guides because baby it's cold outside. And no one wants to deal with Christmas shopping crowds in real life. (Whilst this isn't a sponsored post, please note that the links are AL where applicable.)

Bridget Sojourner - Christmas Gift Ideas For Fabulous Fashionistas with House Of Fraser

Sometimes you come across a campaign which really speaks to you, and when I saw that House of Fraser had teamed up with the 77 year old sartorial superstar Bridget Sojourner, my heart soared. Sojourner is the sort of woman who I want to be when I finally grow up. She is someone who rocks head-to-toe leopard print, is an active campaigner against ageism and wears charity shop chic like she's storming down a runway.

As part of Channel 4's "Fabulous Fashionistas" documentary, Sojourner turned heads and proved that fashion really is for all. Speaking with House of  Fraser, she has hand picked her own Christmas gift wishlist for every aspiring vintage vixen, and you can read the whole article by clicking here.

She is utterly fabulous, and easily my favourite fashionista. If you want some Christmas wish list inspiration, Sojourner will definitely steer you in the right direction.

Until next time,
