Christmas 2018: Top gifts for women
We’re rocking around the Christmas tree but, most importantly, what’s hidden underneath it?

It’s time to treat that special lady in your life – whether it’s your wife, mum, aunt or sister – and we’ve got plenty of amazing ideas for your shopping list.
We’ve already written our letters to Santa and we’re hoping for a bumper crop of goodies.
Topping our list is this lovely Orla Kiely watch, which is currently on offer at www.watches2u.com. We’d also love to pamper ourselves with this Sanctuary Spa kit or some treats from Benefit make-up.
Chilly winter nights demand a good book so we’ll be hoping to find one of The Folio Society’s gorgeous novels in our stockings.
Happy Christmas!
