So this holiday season, if you plan to splurge on your special someone or yourself like me, here are the most luxurious gifts I would recommend you wrap and put under the tree.

Cleaning Up This Black Friday

When it comes to Black Friday, you know how I feel. While I love the idea of shopping, I always end up thinking about the clutter it will make in the house, especially now that the new living room is all set up and spotless(ish). And of course, the clean up that comes along with it before we host friends and family in the coming weeks. So how am I cleaning up this #BlackFriday you ask when it comes to deals? This is how!

A Christmas Cocktail All The Way From Cologne

Christmas is one of my fav times of year. I love being able to spend time with my closest family and friends, even if it is through facetime for my family so far away. One thing that I had not experienced until I moved to the Northern hemisphere were Christmas Markets. It’s simply too warm in NZ for these to have the atmosphere that they need. These markets are all throughout Europe and have their own personality and verve. They are all slightly different and each year, when I visit a different one it puts me right in the Christmas mood. They begin in late November and go until Christmas Eve, they are outdoors, so crisp and cold, with a real winter feel to them.
