For The Women

Leggings

Possibly the comfiest and coziest leggings known to man (well, woman!). I’m a huge fan of Love Leggings – I had a couple of pairs of maternity ones and they’ve lasted beautifully. They’re available in a huge range of sizes, colours and lengths.

Nail Polish

Now, I don’t get on too well with nail polishes because they seem to chip almost straight away, but these have lasted SO long, even without a topcoat. The nude is the perfect shade for day to day, and the iridescent one is perfect for a bit of sparkle on a night out.

Everyone loves a pair of socks for Christmas, and when they are probably the world’s softest and most comfortable socks, you can’t go too wrong. This luxury gift box is filled with three pairs of bamboo socks, each one with a reinforced heel and toe as well as hand linked seams for added comfort.
