If your pets are just as much a part of the family as anyone else, then be sure to treat them to something suitably festive from our Christmas gift guide for dogs. From Christmas jumpers to novelty collars, this selection of canine clothing and accessories will have them looking the part of Santa’s little helper.

1. Festive to the Bone

Winter’s classic Fair Isle patterns get a pooch-perfect update with bones and paw prints. Let them join in all the Christmas jumper fun with a snuggly knit, and wrap them up with a matching dog scarf for added cosiness. A sprig of holly is the perfect festive finish.

2. Sit, Stay, Sparkle!

Treat your furry friend to some sparkle (and endless attention!) in some merry headwear from our collection of dog accessories. Whether they’re taking on Mr Claus’ duties in a sequin Santa hat or leading the sleigh ride in in a reindeer headband, there’s no doubt they’ll be spreading the Christmas cheer.

3. Here Comes Santa Paws

There’s no better way to bring in the big day than with our fun Santa outfit for dogs. Whether they’re playing with the wrapping paper or hoovering up the leftover dinner, they’ll be ultra-festive in this Christmas coat. Add a slogan beanie hat and cosy booties for maximum impact.

4. Walkies in a Winter Wonderland

The Boxing Day walk will be a magical affair with these fantasy-themed picks. Our amazing unicorn onesie features a warm hood and golden horn that’s perfect for dashing through the snow, while a glitter collar and lead will keep them sparkling all season long. Prepare for plenty of approving woofs.

For the final instalment of our blogger gifting challenge, we gave Hannah Robinson (@hannahlourobinson) and Gabrielle Bassett (@gabriellewearsdenim) access to our exclusive pop-up shop and challenged them to find the perfect Christmas gifts for each other. The catch? After a quick-fire round of questions, they had just one minute to find their sparkle. Watch below to see how they got on.

To Hannah, From Gabrielle

Just in time for party season, Gabrielle treated Hannah to a dose of statement sparkle in the form of these multicoloured pieces. A playful way to ramp things up this Christmas, our sequin ball earrings rival the decorations with a perfect balance of kitsch appeal and chic styling. Plus, as the diary fills up with celebrations, our striped cross-body bag is a standout choice for Hannah to mix and match with all her night-out looks. Finally, a glitter hair clip is an on-trend way to make any up-do feel party-ready. 

To Gabrielle, From Hannah

A beret is a staple of Gabrielle’s style, so it’s no surprise that this bejewelled offering went down extremely well when gifts were exchanged. With cold weather here to stay, her oversized scarf is the perfect pop of colour to go with it: soft, cosy and made to be noticed. To complete her present with a helping of glamour, Hannah chose Gabrielle a beaded bag and a luxe gold-plated ring from Z for Accessorize. And because it’s Christmas, our novelty headbands bring all the fun.

5 Berets & Baker Boy Hats to Wear All Season

Find Your Sparkle: The Party Accessories on Our Wish-List

 Shop Christmas >

Re-emerge from the darkness – Sagittarius season (22^nd November-21^st December 2018) is upon us, inspiring us to explore, push boundaries and embrace our sense of adventure. Here, we delve into the inner workings of one the freest and fieriest signs on the zodiac wheel, and share the birthday gifts that the Sagittarius in your life is destined to love…

About the Sagittarius Sign

Ruled by Jupiter, the planet of growth and opportunity, the independent Sagittarius is driven by adventure and experience, and seeks enlightenment through new ideas, people and places. Optimistic, enthusiastic and inspiring, this fire sign possesses a positive and outgoing personality that makes them the life and soul of any party – and their energy is often contagious. Wise and philosophical, Sagittarius is full of knowledge and curiosity about the world, and is never one to shy away from sharing their opinions in deep, intellectual discussions. At times, they can come across a little too outspoken, blunt or reckless, although it’s important to remember that most of these behaviours are often inadvertent.

 1. The Constellation Necklace

Located in the centre of the Milky Way, Sagittarius is often represented as a centaur – a mythological half-man, half-horse – drawing a bow at the heart of Scorpius. Find the constellation depicted on our gold- and platinum-plated necklaces from Z for Accessorize, with cubic zirconia stones providing a touch of celestial sparkle.

2. The Sagittarius Rings

Whether you’re looking for jewellery to match or after an alternative to the above, these stacking rings make a beautiful birthday gift for Sagittarius. Plated in gold, this zodiac-inspired set features two designs: a sparkling constellation and a turquoise-effect stone embellishment. The latter is the birthstone for December and has been cited for its healing and protective powers.

3. The Sagittarius Bracelet

Set on coloured cord, this star sign bracelet features a sterling silver disc with the mythical centaur symbol – otherwise known as a glyph – which is said to represent Sagittarius’ optimistic outlook on life, as well as their ambitions to reach a higher spiritual ideal. A treasure-forever gift.

4. The Birthstone Necklace

Celebrating a birthday in December? Look no further than this birthstone necklace. It’s crafted from gold-tone metal and embellished with a sparkling blue crystal from Swarovski, emulating the colour of a turquoise. (You can find the birthstone necklace for November here).

5. The Sagittarius Keyring

Engraved with the constellation of the centaur, and embellished with tiny, twinkling stones, this gold-tone metal keyring makes a thoughtful gift for Sagittarius, encouraging them to keep exploring new horizons.

The rules went like this: first, both influencers asked each other a round of quick-fire questions and, with their newfound knowledge to hand, had up to one minute to bring each other’s festive wish-list to life…

To Laura, From Lauren

Berets were the way to go for Laura, who confessed her love for the French-girl classic in her gifting Q&A – we like how this one is made from wool and is designed in a muted rust-red hue. Co-ordinating cool came in the shape of a suede cross-body bag in the same shade, while smaller treasures included statement jewels in gold-plated metal from Z for Accessorize. As for the winter warmers, a blanket scarf with big, block stripes proved to be a festive favourite.

To Lauren, from Laura

Cold-weather glamour was on the cards for Lauren, with the style blogger being treated to a faux fur scarf in classic black – perfect for wearing from day to dark during the festive season and right through winter. The gifting bundle was completed with a pair of chunky gold hoops – cited as an all-time wardrobe winner – plus a hand-held bag with colour-block stripes in burgundy, red and petal-soft pink.

The holiday season is here – which means it’s officially acceptable to start re-watching those festive classics, planning those Christmas party playlists and, of course, decorating your home with all things merry and bright. Need a little inspiration? From festive sparkles to animal magic, get the season started with three of our favourite Christmas decorating themes that we’re loving for 2018.

 1. Sparkles All Round

When it comes to Christmas, there’s no such thing as too much sparkle – and that certainly goes for the decorations too.  From twinkling unicorns and flamingos, to sparkling bottles of fizz and feather-topped baubles, these light-catching creations were made to be mixed and matched in any way you want for an Instagram-worthy finish.

2. Animal Magic

If you want to nod to the traditional, look no further than our animal-inspired decorations. Knitted reindeers, polar bears, foxes and sloths (that’s right, sloths) make fun alternatives to classic Christmas baubles, while spreading plenty of festive cheer in the process.

3. London Calling 

From the Christmas lights to tinsel-topped trees: there’s nothing quite like London during the festive season. Bring the magic of the capital city into your home with these perfectly patriotic designs – think glittering black cabs, double-decker buses, post boxes and – our personal favourite – a knitwear-clad British bulldog.

Shop Christmas Decorations > 

All Hallow’s Eve is almost here – and it’s time to make some hocus pocus. To get you inspired for the witching hour, we asked three beauty bloggers – Nadia, Louise and Kate – to recreate three of our favourite Halloween make-up looks and show us that there’s endless ways to interpret every spine-tingling tutorial…

1. Fortune Teller

Smoky orange eyes, celestial stars and fiery sparkle: we love how make-up artist Nadia (@withlove.nadia) has put a darkly glamorous spin on the fortune teller make-up look. Layers of gold heirloom jewels with muted green stones add to the eerily ethereal aesthetic, and are complemented to perfection by the decadent velvet of both the headband and the dress.

2. Galactic

Proving that silvery metallics aren’t the only way to go intergalactic, make-up artist Louise (@louise.keane) has experimented with a deep, shimmery pink shadow instead, elevating its other-worldly effect with a high-shine highlighter on the brow line, cheekbones and the inner corner of the eyes. Stick-on starry sparkles, a crescent moon hair clip and constellation necklaces add the finishing touches.

3. Flapper Girl

Taking Halloween fancy dress to new levels of decadence, beauty blogger Kate (@katesbeautystation) has made the flapper girl look feel infinitely more of the moment with a glittery gold shadow, clashed with a deep purple lip. A sequin headband and a feather fan nod to the roaring twenties, while fringed disc earrings add a dose of modern glamour.

Hold tight – Scorpio season has arrived. As of Tuesday 23^rd October 2018, the Sun has moved into Scorpio, joining Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, ready to ignite our passions and infuse courage until 21^st November. Join us as we explore the mysterious depths of the one of the most misunderstood signs in the zodiac, and discover our hand-picked gift edit for the Scorpios in your life…

About the Scorpio Sign

Secretive and enigmatic by nature, Scorpio brings us into the hidden, shadowy places of what makes us who we are.  Digging deep comes naturally to Scorpios, who love to reinvent themselves over and over again, allowing them to become the most self-aware and insightful soul that they possibly can be. Powerful, passionate and intense, they also come with seductive, magnetic personalities that are hard to ignore, and are known for being strong-willed, ambitious and brave in everything they set out to do.  As a water sign, Scorpios tend to be motivated by their emotions rather than logic or rationale, making them naturally intuitive, and in tune with the feelings and mood of others.

1. The Constellation Necklace

Available in premium gold- and platinum-plated metal, these necklaces from Z for Accessorize come with circular pendants that showcase Scorpius the Scorpion – the southernmost constellation of the zodiac, located near the centre of the Milky Way. Tiny, twinkling cubic zirconia embellishments add a sense of the ethereal to these keepsake jewels, making them a gorgeous gift idea for Scorpions.

2. The Scorpio Rings

Want more jewellery to match? Made from gold-tone metal, this stacking set comes with two rings: one with a sparkling constellation design, and the other with an orange stone embellishment, similar to that of a yellow topaz – the birthstone of November. The latter is said to its conduct its energy from Scorpio’s ruling planet, Pluto, and inspires clarity, concentration and clarity in the wearer.

3. The Scorpio Bracelet

Set on coloured cord, this star sign bracelet features a sterling silver disc with the Scorpio ‘M’ symbol, or glyph, depicting scorpion and its tail stinger. Deep, dark and mysterious, the Scorpion glyph expresses the intensity, depth and passion of those born under the eight sign of the zodiac wheel, while also alluding to their elusive nature.

4. The Birthstone Necklace

Looking for something a little more subtle? Crafted from gold-tone metal, this delicately-designed necklace comes with a simple disc pendant, embellished with a Swarovski crystal in the same golden glow of a yellow topaz – perfect for those celebrating November birthdays (the October birthstone necklace can be found here).

5. The Scorpio Keyring

For another gift inspired by the night skies, look to our star sign keyring. Designed in glossy gold-tone metal, this treasured find is engraved with the Scorpius constellation, representing the scorpion and its tail, and set with sparkling stones that lend a little luxe to the every day.
