Cute Christmas Jumpers wishlist!

I love Christmas Jumper shopping, mainly online if I am honest but if I see something I like, I am off to try it on before buying. Rather than looking for those which are loud and proud, I wanted something a little more cute and reserved this year and it took literally minutes to find over 30 that I absolutely love and a lot longer to whittle them down.


However, these are my current favourites and one of them is on route to me as I type!

Xmas Jumper Guide
1. Dorothy Perkins. I have a love hate relationship with this store. I either find lots I want or nothing at all. Christmas jumpers however is a whole new subject and I love this Rocking Around The Christmas Treet Jumper. Currently on offer at £21 you'll need to grab it quick.

2. Asda George - This light up Christmas Penguin is very cute all tangled up in Christmas Lights and each fairy light really does light-up and it is on sale for just £16 here.

3. House of Fraser - This Yumi Sequin Santat Jumper is almost sold out (here) but it is too cute not to include and is the only jumper that features Santa that I have seen and liked. Priced at just £25 down from £35 I think it is rather cute.

4. New Look - This Cream Heart Reindeer jumper caught my attention because it isn't a dark colour and is rather cute. It has a rounded neck with a fair bit of glitter and costs just £14.99 here.

5. BooHoo - I am sure no Christmas Jumper list is the same without the inclusion of this one from Boohoo. A quote from Home Alone, I think it looks brilliant on a jumper and you can find it here for just £18.

6. ASOS - This Club L Plus Rockin Robin Christmas Jumper is as Christmassy as it is cute and at just £18 it is an absolute bargain here.

7. Marks and Spencer - As a cat lover with three of my own, I had to find a Christmas jumper which featured a cat and M&S came to my rescue with this one. A Black and White beauty wearing a Christmas crown and it costs £30.

8 - John Lewis - Everyone will have heard of Buster the Boxer by now and this Christmas Jumper from John Lewis is just too cute not to include and mention. Priced at £49.

9 - Matalan - Quite a surprising find in Matalan and having seen it in store it is such a great jumper. The Pompoms sit slightly off the jumper and the star at the top of the tree is sparkly and glittery. All for just £15!

10 - F&F at Tesco - Be the belle of the bauble in our sparkly festive jumper. Decorated with sequin baubles and stars that flash when touched, the jumper is knitted with a comfy crew neck and ribbed edging. Priced at £20.

Have you got a Christmas Jumper this year?

Jurlique Opens first UK shop on London's Oxford St

Jurlique is one of those brands I just love. The Rosewater Balancing Mist is a must have desk item for me and I go through around 4 bottles of it a year, it is soooooo good! So upon hearing Jurlique were to open their very first UK store was quite exciting, more so to go along and see it for myself and honestly, it is a little aesthetically pleasing treasure trove which makes you want to touch and photograph everything - it is so instagrammable!

Based on Oxford Street here in London, just a stones throw away from Selfridges, the flagship store is described as being 'A little taste of the Jurlique farm from Australia and an oasis of calm on Oxford Street.'  As well as featuring all of Jurliques products, plus a few store exclusives, there is a treatment room to be found at the back of the store. Inside the room, I was treated to an amazing hand massage in it with the warmest most comfiest treatment bed I have possibly ever sat on, and it is just so calm, so relaxing and so quiet! You would never ever think you was inside a store on one of the busiest roads in London.

At the store opening, if you follow me on Instragram, you might have seen that I got to create a herb jar.  In this jar I was able to place some herbs - Lavender, Calendula and a few others before adding an essential oil of choice and I chose the Revitalising blend which promoted a revilitised and clear sense of being to leave the body feeling energised and refreshed - something I think we could all do with from time to time.  

Now the jar sits on my desk at work and when I feel the need to be refreshed and revitalised, I open the jar and inhale the scent, such a lovely idea and I am glad that I have one.

The new flagship store can be found at 489 Oxford Street W1C 2AU and will be open from 9.30am-9pm Monday to Friday, 10am-9pm on Saturdays, and 12pm-6pm on Sundays. I can't wait to book my facial and go back for a visit.
