The last gift idea is yet another evergreen, a diary. Go for Ernest Hemingway’s favourite, a Moleskine, plain or in the limited edition PacMan edition. And my personal favourite TinTin, this year in a train theme.

A bit of relaxed boho, a bit of classic and a bit of bling. Perfect Holiday looks for men and women from Day.

One intention for the Newyear, no more highstreet fashion for me in 2012, with one exception, the minimal, affordable clothes from COS. For Xmas, a silver edgy dress, a classic gown or, why not, a touch of neon yellow?

Another classic when it comes to Xmas gifts…books. I found three which are perfect for a fashionista/o. One, Colour Me Good, the Kate Moss colouring book. Colouring is recognized by psychologists as serious mindfullness therapy, so why not full your mind in style? The second is the fashion encyclopedia, Mode van A tot Z, drawn by Dutch fashion illustrator Piet Paris. Three; Parisisan Chic, the well kept fashion secrets of French woman, wrote down by Inès de la Fressange. All available online, mindfullness you know

Saturday before the Xmas weekend, the perfect day to pre-taste your party cocktails and bites! On the Jamie O. website I found these party kickers, frozen wodka bottle, pimped up prosecco and my favourite, the pommegranate tequilla, also great with rose cava or gin ‘n tonic. And for the nibbles a classic salmon on toast or a whole party combo! Let the cravings begin!
