The spirit of Christmas settles in my mind and, like every year, I have prepared for you a selection of mixed and varied gifts for the whole family. Gifts that I have all chosen, because they are useful, some eco-responsible, others intangible and for all budgets so that as many of you as possible can find your way around! I hope my suggestions give you some ideas for you and your loved ones. I like to make my Christmas presents, to avoid the stress of the minute!

1 – A pretty toiletry bag: I totally fell for this pretty striped toiletry bag ! Too beautiful ! It also exists in a smaller size and in other colors!

2 – A beautiful, timeless Scottish scarf in GRS certified wool made in Italy! It’s incredibly soft, I love mine!

3 – A pretty bodysuit: I really like the bodysuits from the Ysé brand and I have several from them that I wear regularly, either under my clothes or as a top!

4 – A pair of slippers: This pair of Ugg slippers was clearly my best purchase of 2020 and I still wear them every day! They are super comfortable (their thick sole means you don’t have back pain) and the quality is really there, they haven’t moved in 1 year! When I shared its reference in Stories a few days ago, you also recommended the DGrandiose brand to me as an eco-friendly alternative (European manufacturing)!

5 – A beautiful pair of earrings : the ones in the photo come from Louise Damas and are on my own Christmas list! If your budget allows it, you can also look at Gemmyo, one of my favorite jewelry brands. This pair absolutely makes me dream!

6 – A jewelry box with different stackable compartments: I have spoken to you several times regarding this jewelry box that I bought 3 years ago and with which I am extremely satisfied. She is modular as you wish, because you can choose the drawers and they stack. You can really choose the combination that suits you!

7 – A cashmere hat: it’s a useful gift that always pleases, especially in a timeless color like a beautiful camel and who is mixed !

8 – A beautiful handbag: a useful gift, which lasts and which always gives so much pleasure! I recently adopted this Soeur model which I am delighted with (it exists in several colors, I was very hesitant). I also really like the Polène brand (the quality/price ratio is unbeatable), Léo et Violette or even Sézane leather goods (I have the Victor model in particular which I wear a lot) and that of Rouje.

9 – Pretty pajamas: I’m a big girl from the homewear and pajamas and I think it’s a very nice gift to give! You can look at Ysé which I really like and which has a nice choice!

1 –Linen sheets: I promise you that my nights have changed since I slept in linen sheets ! This material is thermoregulatory so it keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer: magical! I recommend the Bonsoirs brand with my eyes closed, I have several sets from them and they are the cream of the crop! 2 – An initial Anthropologie mug: I have had this mug for at least 3/4 years and every time I show it in Story I am asked where it comes from. A great gift for a small budget!

3 – A white fir candle or my all time favorite winter candle ! I buy it religiously every year at this season (I take at least 2 or 3) to accompany me all winter because its smell is so delicious! Until 11/19 you have -20% with the Club Card or by taking it!

4 – Positive affirmation cards: it’s my new favorite gift to give ! I myself love these cards with their pretty wooden support and I love the ritual of drawing a new card each, leaving it on my desk all week to inspire me!

5 – 6 – A luminous ceramic vase: I love this object that I found so poetic ! I have it at home and it is really superb ???? Until 11/19 you have -20% with the Club Card or by taking it!

7 – An Etsy gift card: when I’m not sure what to give, I love turning to gift cards! You can’t go wrong! There is a so vast choice on Etsy that the person to whom you give this gift card will be able to treat themselves, no matter what they like!

8 – An initial Sézane cup: I gave this cup to one of my cousins ​​last year and she was envied by everyone haha! These cups are superb, with a large capacity and I find that personalization with the initial always has a great effect 🙂

9 – A Friends thermos: I came across this thermos and I find it super beautiful! Perfect for a Friends fan ????

1 – Bala sports weights: super pretty and quick to put on, these weights are great for those who do sports (whether cardio, yoga or Pilates), to use around the hands, wrists or ankles to intensify your practice! I have them myself and I love them, I mightn’t do without it anymore ! They are currently on sale in beige and black, it’s a great deal!

2 – A gua sha: I’ve been using a gua sha for around 4 years and it’s my little daily ritual that I mightn’t do without (I do this in the evening while watching a series or reading in bed)! I really saw the results on the appearance of my definition and the definition of my facial features! A great gift to give!

3 – An Oura connected ring: I spoke to you in detail regarding my love for my Oura connected ring in this article on my blog! A incredible gift for wellness enthusiasts ????

4 – A hairbrush: I have heard a lot regarding the La Bonne Brosse brand and I really wanted to try it! It’s a small budget, but it’s true that it’s important to have a good hairbrush to take care of it! I think I’m going to put it on my Christmas list ????

5 – A course of food supplements Likes: for take care of yourself from the inside ! There are different treatments for different problems, my favorite being the Hair & Scalp treatment which has worked wonders on my hair! If you’re looking for gift ideas, you’ll find plenty at Aime: their makeup range, their candle, their AimeFit sports range, their collagen drinks…

6 – a subscription to the Superhuman meditation application: I discovered this application (in English) this year and I use it every day: you have “traditional” meditations but also lots of “active” meditations designed to take place during the day: when you are cooking, when you are playing sports, when you are cleaning, when you are shopping, when you are walking, others with super specific themes: starting the weekend off right, changing your perspective following a bad day, boosting your creativity, finding calm following an argument, trusting yourself on a date, stopping a loop of negative thoughts… It’s great!

7 – A silk pillowcase: what a revolution for me to sleep on a silk pillowcase ! Bye bye the pillow marks on the face and hello soft skin and hair! It’s really crazy! Until 11/19 you have -20% with the Club Card or by taking it!

8 – A bathrobe Good evening: I have had this bathrobe for 2 years and I wear it every day, it is so comfortable and soft! A great mixed gift to make, which will please the whole family! You can even have it personalized with the first name, initials or even the nickname of the person you are giving it to!

9 – A pretty Pomponne lipstick: my favorite clean lipstick brand since I discovered it! The staying power of these RALs is incredible and all the colors are more beautiful than each other! My signature color for the past few months has been their “poppy”: so beautiful and bright, it’s the one you see me with most of the time.

Vincent helped me put together this selection : I asked him what he would like to receive or would have liked to receive and these are the ideas that we selected together. Of course, the majority of ideas are mixed and not just reserved for men ????

4 – A velvet cap: Vincent has this cap in several colors and I love poking him from time to time! It is very qualitative and it is a great men’s wardrobe accessory!

3 – Dobble Harry Potter: the Dobble game is one of my favorites because it’s easy, quick and space-saving! A great low-budget gift ! The Harry Potter version is even better than the classic ????

4 – Trevell Christmas Puzzle: I did this puzzle last year and I’m looking forward to getting it out once more this year to do it once more! It was so pretty and nostalgic! The eshop of this brand specializing in puzzles is great if you like doing them or want to give them as a gift!

5 – Holiday Puzzle: I love this French brand of puzzles! Their illustrations are superb and it’s a pleasure to do them! You can discover all their puzzles here ????

8 – Escape Game game: such a nice gift to receive at Christmas to play it straight away with your family! I exist in different versions and it’s great, tested and approved by me !

9 – A wooden Molkky: designed and manufactured in Finland, it is one of my favorite games ! I can no longer count the number of games I have played with my friends ???? If we want to roughly schematize, it’s similar to our national pétanque to give you an idea ????
