Drunk In Love - Puik Art Rare Carafe from Red Candy


I'm a big fan of Red Candy, whether it's for quirky gifts for friends of some lovely new items for the flat. They always seem to have exactly what I'm looking for, in this case the item being some sort of interesting vessel to hold table water (and other more fun drinks!) in when we're entertaining guests. I guess I wanted something useful that would also look cool with cocktails in, and could also possibly double up as a vase on those rare occasions one is needed. Enter the Puik Art Rare Carafe, part sculpture, part vessel, all beautiful.

All I Want For Christmas Is... Christmas Shopping Online with Qwerkity


Anyone who's taken a look at my blog or Instagram recently can see that I've been ridiculously excited for Christmas since the beginning of November. Since dating Lord Dicely and being pulled into his family, it's fast become my favourite time of year. However traipsing up and down the high streets amongst the busy crowds does not exactly fill me with festive cheer. If anything, I'm more likely to start shouting bah, humbug at everyone!

Like many people, I now do a large proportion of my shopping online so was really excited when Qwerkity got in touch with me to give their website a test run. They allowed me to pick a Christmas gift, and I felt (quite literally!) like Christmas had come early when it swiftly arrived through the post.

Filled with great Christmas present ideas, Qwerkity (formally Presents For Men) has a whole range of gifts suitable for even the most difficult person. Whether you're looking for something for your Secret Santa, want something with a personalised touch or are looking for something for the person who has everything (briefcase record player anyone?) they have you covered.

Burt's Bees Lips, Tips & Toes Gift Set. (£14.99)
Being a lover of beauty products, I decided to indulge myself with the Tips And Toes gift set (£14.99), from Burts Bees. Containing a whopping six items, this lovely boxed set is great for handbag and travel sized treats, or anyone new to the brand.




The set contains everything you need to keep your skin in tip top condition over the winter months, with a variety of hand, feet and lip products ready to pamper you the natural way.

The set contains:

  • Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil (4.25g)
  • Almond & Milk Hand Cream (7g)
  • Coconut Foot Cream (25g)
  • Mini Hand Salve (8.5g)
  • Mini Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream (8.5g)
  • Honey & Grapeseed Oil Hand Cream (25g)
As with all of the products from Burts Bees, each of the products smell absolutely divine. From sweet citrus to marzipan, they uplift your mood as well as nourish your skin. Best of all, it took no effort at all to get it from click to delivery. The set arrived well packaged within two days of ordering with no issues at all!

Until next time,
