The first is the Bamboo Knitting Pin Set in Rose Fabric Wrap (QVC price £16.28). This is the perfect gift for those we know who love to knit. The Bamboo Knitting Needle Sets comprise of a very pretty fabric wrap with roses, and within that you have eight different-sized pairs of Bamboo knitting needles. With this set, you will never lose a set of needles again, and will always have the correct size available whenever needed. The Knitting Needle sizes are; 3mm, 3.5mm, 3.75mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, 5mm, 5.5mm and 6mm.
Another great gift is the V V Rouleaux Feather Rosette and Headband Kit (£QVC price £20.24). With this, you actually get to make your own pretty headband, of which can also double up as fantastic hair facinators. The feathers are in vibrant tones of peacock blue, green, black and grey, which I am sure, will match in with a lot of outfits you may have. The kit also contains 2 silver-toned metal brooch clip, a white headband and diamante buttons. Don’t be worried about putting you Rosette and Headband together as it comes with step-by-step instructions, with diagrams to help you out.

Or if you are going on a stag or hen night, personalise you very own merchandise with humorist slogans, adding some fun and laughs on this special night. Maybe you are a mad keen fan of a particular movie like Twilight? There is a large selection of products based on many movies like Twilight to choose from, and if you don’t like them, well, design your own!
I have received a selection of products from CafePress and am impressed with them all. From personalised tee shirts and bags, to badges and clocks, all can carry different slogans of you choice, making it very personal for the person you are buying it for. I must admit, my new favourite item to wear now is their Hoodie. It is incredibly comfortable and warm, and I am not surprised that the Hoodies are one of CafePress’s best sellers. I highly recommend it.
So go on and express yourself. Visit http://www.cafepress.com and enjoy looking for that wonderful, personal and passionate product, something your gift recipient will just love. Prices vary on the size and personalisation of each product; all prices are in my eyes very reasonable.
Narciso Rodriguez is a well established American fashion designer, specialising in women’s fashion.
Rodriguez even designed the dress that Michelle Obama wore a dress from Narciso Rodriguez’s spring 2009 collection when she joined her husband, Barack Obama, appearing for the first time as president-elect of the United States.
Now, Narciso Rodriguez has released male and female perfume fragrances, with both, of course, available at theperfumeshop.com.
The Men’s Aftershave is a brilliant robust scent. This is completely masculine, sensual and elegant. Woody, floral and amber scents create the essence of this very manly fragrance. This is one of the top aftershaves I have reviewed.
A 50 ml EDT bottle is £36.99 at theperfumeshop.com
The perfume for the ladies has the same simply classic bottle and is £31.50 for 30 ml. This is Rodriguez’s first perfume and is a sophisticated little number.
Designed to be a tribute to a woman’s grace and power of inspiration. The fragrance compliments the Aftershave seamlessly, with the same hints of amber, floral and woody hits. Again, a real winner – The best perfume?
Classic designer perfumes and aftershaves.
I have come across the most wonderful online shop! Bonprix has just launched itself in the UK, and they offer quality clothing and home items at unbelievable value-for-money prices. Being one of Europe’s most successful online catalogue shopping brands, Bon prix UK gives us a vast range of fashion, shoes, accessories and lingerie that would suit all the family.
When I checked out Bonprix’s site, I honestly could not believe how cheap most of the items were. I was completely amazed and can’t wait to order some things for myself (their boots are just fantastic)! What I also liked, is the fact that they cater for all shapes and sizes - from sizes 6 through to 32; and these all cost the same, unlike many other catalogues which charge more for larger sizes!
There are 3 products that I really love and would like to share with you; the chunky knits (including a gorgeous jumper dress), beautiful lingerie and the Santa’s little helpers dress.
Making a great gift for a special lady in your life is Bonprix’s range of Chunky Knits. They all look really stunning and flattering. The Grey Jumper Dress (£32.90) is unbelievably comfortable to wear, not to mention extremely cosy! I am sure the others within the range will be exactly the same. This will make a super gift in the colder months, and just perfect for Christmas.
