CHRISTMAS GIFT: THE WATCH

With 2 weeks to go - lots of shopping! You can easily get stuck on what to get family and friends unless they specifically asked for a few things or given you a list - knowing that they will enjoy the present. 

As I get older I don't often get surprises, I do get asked what I want and I normally have something in mind which I seem to know a month or two before Christmas. It's either on the expensive side that I've lusted for quite a while or a few small bits which I'd happily get for Christmas and wait. Presents isn't really a big part in our household so we also receive red pockets containing money which we can spend how we like whether it's during sales or I normally save and spend it with my birthday money.

The gift I wanted to talk about is a watch. This is something I personally like and came across after seeing so many of the Daniel Wellington photos posted on Instagram. I like the classic design and how simple it is which brings be to my alternative watch by 'Marc Jacobs' which gives the same appearance. With the chunky rose gold watches everyone had over the summer, this is a simple circle with leather strap perfect for the winter.
