Want It: Jo Malone Scented Candle
My favourite scent at Jo Malone is Red Roses; I have not found any other perfume to capture the delicate scent of a beautiful ripe rose as well as this one. A travel candle won't break the bank at £22.00.
Want It: Seletti Gold Milk Carton Jug
What a fabulous Christmas gift idea, a gold milk jug in the shape of a traditional milk carton. Love it, love it, love it! Available at Heals for £15.00.

Wear It: Monica Vinader Necklace
Better known for her rings, Monica Vinader also designs necklaces; they are elegant, understated and beautiful. You can choose from a selection of charms, pendants and chains to create your own design. Each stone has a meaning too so if you believe in that sort of thing, you can heal yourself while looking gorgeous at the same time. Bonus! The Marie pendant is popular with the celebrities at the moment as featured below with a gold chain worn by Claudia Schiffer.

Love It: Winter Wonderland Hyde Park
Winter Wonderland is back! I love this place for getting into the Christmas spirit. The older I get, the harder it is to conjure up that excited feeling I had as a child about Christmas, but Winter Wonderland always helps but a bit of magic back into the Season. Tickets are on sale now, it opens from 28th November. Bring on the bavarian beer and roller-coaster baby!
