Can’t say I have ever heard of II Tutto baby changing bags, but apparently they have been making big waves in the states and now they are due to hit the UK.
Luminaries such as Cate Blanchett, Naomi Watts and most recently, Nicole Kidman, have been seen clutching an Il Tutto.
II Tutto claim:

Nespresso, internationally renowned for its premium coffee system, is launching a Limited Edition Crystal pink Essenza coffee machine, ideal for the coffee aficionado wanting to stand out from the crowd. Adorned with dazzling pink Swarovski crystals, the machine brings catwalk glamour to the kitchen for the Ultimate Coffee Experience.
The launch follows the great success of the black Limited Edition Crystal machines, which sold out from the Nespresso Boutique at Harrods within days. In addition, to its glamorous head-turning looks, this Limited Edition Essenza combines premium quality coffee with functionality, producing the perfect cup of espresso or lungo every time.
These exclusive limited machines will be released for sale exclusively through Selfridges in London during October to coincide with Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Priced at £699, all the proceeds will be donated to Breast Cancer Haven, the charity that offers free support, information and complementary therapies to anyone affected by breast cancer.
Paul Arengo Jones, Chief Executive, Breast Cancer Haven comments,
“We are delighted that Nespresso has produced these very special pink crystal coffee machines for Breast Cancer Haven. Here at the Haven we believe that there is very much life after cancer. It costs approximately £1,000 to help a person through the Haven programme so every donation is very gratefully received.”
I’m not sure this product from Simplehuman fits as a stand out Christmas gift but - it might just be an interesting stocking filler.
The spout sensor soap pump features include:
• Dispenses soap touch free.
• Elongated spout arches over the sink to stop wet hands or soap dripping on the counter.
Due to retail for £29.99.
