It’s that time of the year again where we have to put our ideas together and buy Christmas presents. It’s a daunting time for some, it’s amazing for others and for the majority, a fun occasion. As I work in retail, I started to dislike Christmas the moment November hit but it hasn't changed how I love the occasion and how it brings everyone together - spending it with those you love and cherish. 

This Christmas for me will be quite quiet as my mum is spending most of her December in Thailand – I’m jealous. I’d love to be sipping on coconuts, lying by the beach and I’m imaging all the food and fruit. She will be back before NYE but in the meantime I'll be spending my Christmas Day with my godparents and my silly little munchkin of a cousin, E. 

So, here are my little wants. I will say that some of these items I have wanted them for quite some time. One of the ones I am most excited for is Daisy Dream. When I first smelt Daisy Dream it was perfect because of the floral scent and just how light it was. It’s subtitle with its sweetness and what’s amazing is how Nicole Warne interpreted it with If Life is but a Dream. It was incredibly amazing when I saw this editorial and she continuously inspires me with every post.

Have an amazing Christmas and New Years Eve everyone!

In My Hearts of Hearts

I think when it comes down to it; everyone has a massive list of wants and would prefer to purchase them over their needs. I somehow squeezed it to 5 items that I adore and have always wanted when I had to make my hard decision especially when right now I’m over my head in so many tasks and renovations. 

Out of the items, I can’t wait to get my hands on Love and Misadventure by Lang Leav – it is simply pure love dripping from the pages. I have read only a selection of poems here and there, and it is amazing how relatable they are. It hits the heart very hard. 

I can’t wait til I can tick these items off my list but I know the list will just go on and on with new items and definitely home items because I can’t stop myself.
