My Top Four Gift Giving Ideas!

Top four gift giving ideas | hand selected by me

We all know that when it comes to buying gifts, some people are just harder to buy for than others, so imagine how it would feel for your partner / loved ones to buy a gift for you? Feel free to point them in this direction if they are looking to buy you a gift that comes at more of a price, but will last a lifetime.

Any great outfit needs that key piece of jewellery to compliment. Anjolee don’t just offer the odd key piece, but have an amazing selection of fine, individually created pieces throughout their online store. The stones used in the pieces I have selected above are the finest coloured gemstones and can be set into a choice of white gold, yellow gold or platinum. Admittedly these are not the type of pieces you would just buy out of the blew, but they more suit the perfect occasion where a special gift is required.

The diamond rings offered by Anjolee would make perfect engagement or promise rings. The website gives you the option to design your very own wedding or anniversary ring, to add that special personalised touch to any special day. They would also be an amazing birthday gift for a loved one. I would personally love a bracelet from this site, the multi coloured gemstone, white gold bracelet would make the most amazing gift or graduation present; the piece is definitely something I would be over the moon to receive. This bracelet would add a dash of colour to any outfit, creating perfect tones throughout. 

Anjolee jewellery can be customized on Anjolee.com according to preference of metal type, diamond size, diamond/gemstone quality, and length/size to make that special piece even more so unique to the customer. They also offer a great selection of gemstone jewellery with choice of several birthstones. I personally love anything that is birthstone or moonstone based! As well as this, they offer vintage bracelets which I have picked to be in the top four picks of gift ideas; every girl loves a vintage styled number – clothing or accessory wise.

The website is simple and easy to navigate through, allowing for the option of viewing each type of jewellery including rings, bracelets, pendants, necklaces and earrings. Meaning you are most definitely bound to find the perfect gift for a loved one or even for a parent / sibling easily without the hassle of searching through shops. One thing for sure, anything purchased is sure to put a smile on someones face!

I managed to pick up this pretty embellished skirt for just £3 in the latest Topshop sale, the skirt was originally £52 so it’s safe to safe I got a real bargain with this! I decided to pair the skirt with an off the shoulder jumper so that my outfit didn’t look entirely girly!

Summer Style & Activities

Days Out with the Kids

With the summer holidays fast approaching, thoughts are turning to what to do with the children to keep them occupied for six weeks. Make a list of places you all fancy going in advance of the holidays to create a bit of excitement and anticipation about your days out. It will also help you to keep in mind what you need for each activity. Luckily the ASDA George clothing range is on hand to kit you out in whatever you need, whatever the weather, so if you need jeans, shorts, T shirts or hoodies, George is the place to go. So where should you head on your days out with the kids this summer? Take a look at a few suggestions below:

Catch a Ferry

Take a ferry to the Isle of Wight, Ireland, the Isle of Mann, or France and have fun exploring a little further afield. Perhaps combine your ferry trip with a holiday, or just explore for a few hours before returning home on the ferry again. The ferry makes it all the more fun and creates a bit of adventure.

Down on the Farm

Take the kids for a day out at the farm. There are simply hundreds of farms throughout the UK all offering something different to set them apart from the rest. You can enjoy milking time with the cows, tractor rides, collecting eggs from the chickens, bottle feeding baby goats and pony rides around the farm. Add to that some pretty spectacular play areas and you have a great day out that all the family will enjoy.

Some great farms to visit with the kids are Longdown Activity Farm in the New Forest where you can have fun getting hands on and meeting baby bunnies and chicks and bottle feeding the crazy baby goats, who push each other out of the way just to get to the bottles. Another great farm is Godstone Farm & Play Barn in Surrey. Hugely popular with families, you can interact with the animals, enjoy the tractor rides, play in the sandpits, get lost in the maze, build a den and burn off some energy in the indoor play area. Or, if you’re in the Midlands, try the Farm Park at Chatsworth House in Derbyshire for a fantastic adventure playground alongside cute animals.

Get Active

Kids who like a little action in their school holidays will love the activity centres like Go Ape. Here you can try your hand at segway on the special segway tracks throughout the forest, fly down a zip wire, and brave the Tarzan swings, the high ropes and the tree top obstacle course. There's so much to do that even the bravest child wont be able to help but be thrilled as they whoosh through the trees and crawl through tunnels up in the canopy.

Other great things to do during the holidays include taking classes together, perhaps learning a new language or to decorate cupcakes, visit the zoo or take a step back in time and follow in the footsteps of England's past Kings and Queens at a stately home or castle. There's so much to do during UK summers that you, and the kids, really will be spoiled for choice.

WIN !! 1 X Pebble Grey Mirror RRP £398 & 1 X Boots Voucher worth £50!

a Rafflecopter giveaway

Did you know, it has been found that British women keep their makeup up products for 6 years past its expiry date, incredible I know! 

To make women more aware of this, I was contacted by Pebble Grey, who are a bathroom mirror and cabinet specialist company. Pebble Grey are trying to make women realise that even though it can be painful to part with your favourite mascara or primer, out of date products can become a breeding ground for bacteria - not what you want to be rubbing into your face! In the image above are the products I'm chucking out after years of sitting in my make up bag!

To help solve the problem Pebble Grey and Pretty Delicate Layers will be allowing one lucky winner the chance to win a brand new and exclusive bathroom cabinet worth an astonishing £398! - but on the provision that they use this as a chance to part with their 5 year old bottle of moisturiser and crusty old lipstick - and spring clean their cosmetics!  We will also offer a (1x) £50 Boots voucher to help the lucky winner restock on all their favourites (courtesy of PebbleGrey)!

So what are you waiting for? Enter the competition now!

Show us your spring cleaned products too & #springcleanmymakeup
