Don’t these photos make you feel all festive? I do love a good white and gold theme! Anyway, today’s gift guide is all about those little extras when you’re stuck for one last present for someone. I’ve covered beauty to accessories to candles to chocolate, so there’s something for everyone!

First up is this amazing set which is the James Read The Tan Edit Face Kit. You get the Tan Perfecting Enzyme Peel Mask, Sleep Mask Tan (for the face) and Day Tan SPF15 (for the face), which is a fantastic introduction to the brand. I really want to try their body tan this Summer. Following the gold theme, there’s also the Michael Kors 24k Gold Eau de Parfum which looks absolutely beautiful, doesn’t it? Using tuberose, freesia and musk, it’s a gorgeous scent that stays around all day and is perfect for both day and night.

Now, I’ve talked about the new Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani Eyeshadow Palette in a recent post, but it 100% deserves the limelight again as it’s such a beautiful eyeshadow palette! Not only is it festive enough by itself in it’s white and gold packaging, but the shadows inside would make an absolutely gorgeous gift for someone. With enough wearable shades to have you looking on point for work and some darker shades to vamp it up at night, it’s the perfect option for someone who wants to have everything in one place.

Onto my favourite part: chocolate! Who doesn’t love chocolate at Christmas? Lindt always smash it when it comes to festive treats, so the Lindt Chocolate Reindeer and Bear are cute stocking filler options for someone with a sweet tooth. They also have a host of other amazing chocolate treats out this year, including a kilo santa (I kid you not, I’ve got one and it’ll be putting it into a recipe soon!) so there’s plenty of options for those who love their chocolate. For gurls who like their jewellery, there’s the gorgeously packaged Johnny Loves Rosie Star Bracelet Cracker which would make such a beautiful gift for someone. The bracelet itself is double layered, yet delicate enough to still be understated – I’ll be wearing mine right through the festive period!

And finally, two picks from The White Company which I’ve become obsessed with since we’ll be getting a house next year. The White Company Fur Snood is the softest thing in the world and will keep you snug all Winter long, plus the grey colour (and the navy one they have online now) makes for such a chic colour. Aand finally, their Signature Fig Candle, which has a hint of fig (obv), cassis and citrus to make it a warm, inviting and yet fresh scent for the home.

What do you think of my picks? Are you adding any of these to your wishlist?
