And for the final gift guide of the week, a collection of beautiful and whimsical things for les enfants . . ....
AS YOU KNOW the holiday colours this year are pink & leopard print, with glittery white sequin ornaments intermingled with good measure. And while no year has ever had the traditional Christmas shades of red and green, in the form of a perfectly ornate and delightfully maximalist room and a pair of sexy bow heels, the combination is rather festive and fetching . . .
ONE OF MY VERY FAVOURITE THINGS during the holidays [and there are many] is wandering about Christmas tree yards in search of the perfect tree. Last year, we chose a very full and rather bushy Douglas Fir that was decorated in chartreuse glittery baubles and yards & yards of tartan ribbon. And this year, it is a very tall, thin and elegantly sparse Nordmann Fir, with gold leopard print ornaments and wide lengths of fuchsia satin ribbons . . .
