Gifts

An early practical and comforting gift guide

I know that it may feel a bit early for some of you to be thinking about buying Christmas gifts but this year seems to have done strange things to our concept of time. It certainly has to mine. Many of the shops are already gearing up for the festive season. They are also not holding as much stock as usual so some items may sell out quickly. I have therefore compiled an early and practical gift guide.

I intend to plan my gifts carefully taking time to think about what the recipient might really love and also what they will find practical. Many of us have taken up hobbies during lockdown such as gardening or renewed our interest in cooking. I have therefore chosen some practical gifts in my first collage.

In my second collage I have chosen luxury comforting items such as cosy nightwear and pampering bath oils. I have included a silk pillow case. They are so luxurious. I have had one for many years now and would not be without one. Scarves make good presents. As long as you know what colours the recipient likes you do not need to worry about what size they are.

I write a fashion and beauty blog for women over 50 with the aim of inspiring mature women to continue to enjoy and have fun with their fashion choices. I have spent most of my working life in some way connected to fashion. I started my career in Fashion PR and then trained as an Image Consultant when my children were young. I subsequently worked in the corporate world running seminars, doing private coaching and speaking at conferences. I started my blog in 2009 as I wanted to share my years of experience working in the world of fashion. I truly believe we can continue to have confidence in the way we present ourselves. Our style may evolve with time and changing lifestyles, yet with a little knowledge and inspiration, we can all continue to have fun with fashion. As women of a certain age we are a growing demographic let us prove that we can also be a chic one.
