The best of luxury advent calenders

December is nearly upon us which means one thing... CHRISTMAS! And for me, the best bit about Christmas is the build-up to the 25th; the excitement, the high street atmosphere and most importantly, opening your advent calendar every morning. So, here's my pick of the 10 best luxury advent calendars 2016!

Molton Brown

Molton Brown's calendar is perfect for those who love their creams, gels and skincare products.

No7

No7 never fail to impress, with full sized products as well as miniatures worth over £150!

Hotel Chocolat

For those who love a traditional advent calender, with calender options of milk, dark, white and caramel!

NYX

My absolute fave in makeup brands, this advent calendar is definitely on my list!

Chase Spirits

You can't go wrong with vodka and gin, and this advent calendar offers so many flavours for you to try.

Lookfantastic

Skincare, makeup and brushes galore this year. The Lookfantastic calender also boasts full sized products.

Lego

Let your inner child out with a Lego calender!

Topshop

Topshop's calender is always a best seller, 24 items of jewellery... what's there to miss?!

Benefit

This calender is a must if you love Benefit's products and a great way to try products you've always wanted!

Diptyque

Twenty-four of the most beautiful candles and diffusers - a treat if you can afford it.

Valentine's Planning

Valentine's is just around the corner and whether you admit it or not, everyone loves the idea of having someone to share it with.

Whether you go out for drinks, a meal, to the cinema or away for the weekend, it's a weekend to celebrate.

But for girls, most importantly, it's deciding what to wear! The February chill definitely leaves me wanting to wear baggy sweatshirts and stay inside wrapped into a blanket. Finding the perfect outfit just to wear for one night doesn't seem ideal, so here's some ideas of outfits you can put with anything and still wear again on another night out:

Dress: Pretty Little Thing

Skirt: Missguided 

Shirt Dress: Urban Outfitters

Dress: River Island

And most importantly, lingerie! My top choices to make you not only look great, but feel great:

Bodice: Agent Provocateur

Bodice: ASOS

My Christmas wish list

It's beginning to feel a bit like Christmas and nothing says Christmas more than a few presents under the tree! Although the festive season is all about spending time with friends+family and eating and drinking too much, it's a wonderful feeling to exchange presents and cards with those who mean the most to us.

I started my Christmas shopping pretty early this year and already have a few people sorted (although I'm sure I'll buy way too much in New York for everyone as well).. But I can't help but find things I'd love to buy for myself!

Here's my Christmas wish-list:

1. Loafers - Kurt Geiger

2. Sweater - Topshop

3. Ring - Pandora

4. Bag - Net a Porter

5. Chelsea Boots - Kurt Geiger
