Harvey Nichols have used the walk of shame as part of their christmas campaign to great effect. But im not sure if anyone in the world wakes up looking as fresh faced and glowing as the model, especially after a night out!

christmas Selfridges style
Selfridges always produce exceptional and amazing christmas windows and this year is no exception. I may not be in London this year but I can still appreciate the displays from afar.

all things white
I love The White Company and all their little luxurious offerings. And last christmas a fantastic friend in England sent me a box of white ceramic snowflake decorations, perfect for adorning a christmas tree. Unfortunately, last christmas was pretty non-existent for us; having just moved our lives to a new country, a christmas tree was the last thing on our priority list. But this year I made sure it was right up there at the top!
These gorgeous little ceramic snowflakes with their delicate red ribbon are a refreshingly crisp addition to my tree.
And they have this gorgeous smell. The smell of christmas; a mixture of orange and cinnamon which reminds me of christmas markets, mulled wine and christmas cookies.

I LOVE Nail Polish
It's quite laughable my love of nail varnish. Especially since my natural nails aren't that fantastic and I have a horrible habit of biting! However, I love nail polish. And I find the whole process of snipping, filing, buffing, moisturising and painting rather relaxing. But my tendency to be indecisive, usually rears it's head when my nails are involved. Im not sure if it is because I dont know what colours suit my hands (I mean not everyone can pull of fluro green) or whether I get bored very easily, but I have been known to change the colour of my nails on a daily basis.
Since moving to Cyprus I have discovered a whole host of brands I never encountered in London. And one of those is Erre Due. A Greek brand which began its life in 1984 with eye pencils, it has since expanded to a full range of make-up and nail treatments and varnish.
And I have well and truly fallen in love with their nail varnish. They have a fantastic range of colours and the consistency of the polish is perfect. And the brush is a brilliant size - a factor that sways my decision when it comes to polish.

They have two ranges, Erre Due last minute and Erre Due Exclusive; both cover well and actually both dry super fast and leave a brilliant glossy sheen. I am in love with the dark cherry black and the slate grey; really wintery shades for any hands.
Now which one to use first?!
