CHRISTMAS WINDOWS

Window Shopping is fun at any time of year, but especially so in the christmas season when the shops go all out with the most elaborate and decorative displays. Whilst in London the other day I couldn't resist browsing around Selfridges. unfortunately I didn't leave with anything, but I did end up admiring the gorgeous window displays. Its obvious that a lot of time and planning goes into designing the displays, with all of the different themed windows, its like stepping into a story. From giant Charlotte Olympia shoes, to bright Louis Vuitton bags; who wouldn't want to stop and stare?

FAVOURITE SCENTS

Pretty bottles and gorgeous scents. Every trip to a department store is an excuse to breeze past the perfume counters, testing a different one each time. Currently coveting Manifesto by YSL, its smells delicious; reminding me of Candyfloss and all things sweet. These are a few favourites that are currently in use, with some obvious classics like Chanel and Dior mixed in. Estee Lauder's Bronze Goddess is a favourite, with a summery scent in a shimmering bottle, but unfortunately this was a limited edition and changes each year! Choosing a perfume can be very personal, depending on your preferences. Whats your favourite?
