CHRISTMAS GIFT GUIDE

Christmas is, let’s be honest, the most wonderful time of the year. But in terms of gift-giving, it can be a stressful nightmare. If you’re like my mother, you’ve had your gifts organised since mid-October. But if you’re not (like me), here’s a few of my favourite Fashion gifts you can still get last-minute, just in time for Christmas (and a special added extra). 1. FUZZY BUCKET HATS I’m not sure where this craze came from but I’m also not mad about it (I'm obsessed). Step up winter wardrobes with a colourful (or neutral) fuzzy bucket-hat, staying warm and staying trendy. That, or a faux-fur hat, Emily Ratajkowski approved. Shop both: https://www.urbanoutfitters.com/en-gb/shop/shaggy-bucket-hat3?inventoryCountry=GB&currency=GBP&color=040&size=ONE%20SIZE&_cclid=Google_Cj0KCQiA5OuNBhCRARIsACgaiqWEVL1ptSnqtx9rAKhqpKMtwUBe-379cPotSk2a51EDsF34okCe9JcaAhTTEALw_wcB&utm_campaign=Shopping&utm_term=Smart_Shopping_WW&utm_content=Cj0KCQiA5OuNBhCRARIsACgaiqWEVL1ptSnqtx9rAKhqpKMtwUBe-379cPotSk2a51EDsF34okCe9JcaAhTTEALw_wcB&gclid=Cj0KCQiA5OuNBhCRARIsACgaiqWEVL1ptSnqtx9rAKhqpKMtwUBe-379cPotSk2a51EDsF34okCe9JcaAhTTEALw_wcB&type=REGULAR&quantity=1 https://www.asos.com/new-look/new-look-fluffy-faux-fur-bucket-hat-in-black/prd/201480720?affid=25897&_Cj0KCQiA5OuNBhCRARIsACgaiqVWx60W7CymX04WsguiE213RS9xaIXvVAgsKoCynuhJjlAFOxIXvYQaAj-wEALw_wcB&channelref=product+search&ppcadref=12029787983%7c117574734673%7cpla-361282089597&gclid=Cj0KCQiA5OuNBhCRARIsACgaiqVWx60W7CymX04WsguiE213RS9xaIXvVAgsKoCynuhJjlAFOxIXvYQaAj-wEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds 2. CLAW CLIPS A classic hair accessory that adds to any outfit and makes anything look good. There’s plenty of patterns, colours, and shapes to choose from. But for those with long hair, I can give enough advice that the best one’s are always square for maximum hold and stability. Shop here:

ALOE EARRINGS A favourite brand of mine, earrings made from this Liverpool based independent are always unique and beautiful. They’re extravagant but classic, and here is just a pair of many favourites of mine you can shop:

4. CHUNKY LOAFERS Taking inspiration from Prada, chunky loafers have taken off as the latest must-needed shoe for your wardrobe. Paired with trousers, skirts, dresses, and jeans, they’re an all-rounder.

PRINT TIGHTS Made popular from brands like Gucci, print tights are an addition to any outfit. They’ll make any winter look standout, especially paired with chunky loafers.

SPARKLY ATTIRE Christmas, New Years, it doesn’t matter. Anything sparkly fits the holiday season and can guarantee looking good against the festive lights. Any sparkle is good sparkle, but Oh Polly has a different kind of hold on me.
