The arrival of the John Lewis ad (the man on the moon = another creative triumph) has signalled that Christmas is upon us. And with Christmas comes giving. Above are a selection of wish list goodies I'm currently eyeing up, ranging from Tada & Toy's Aspinall Bracelet – where a percentage of proceeds are donated to animal conservation – to J.Crew's weather-proof Chelsea boots (a dream in the making for a daily dog-walker). Treating someone to something you'd like yourself is generally a failsafe rule for present-giving. 

And with a wedding on the horizon and a new home that is currently void of all furniture, electricals and general day-to-day living essentails, watch this space for more gift guides in the run-up to Christmas.
