Welcome back to my channel. Welcome back to a brand new video. We've got a very exciting one today. I am kickstarting my gift guides for 2023 with a gift guide for her. I have quite the selection, I'm not going to lie, quite the selection of items to share with you. Try to think of new things so that you can go back and watch my previous year's gift guides for more ideas. Then I'm going to do a for him and a stocking filler, probably like a B&M one as well. So stay tuned, subscribe, hit that notification bell to make sure you don't miss out on the other upcoming gift guides that I've got coming up for you guys. And I feel like we need to jump into today's video because it's going to be a long one. Make sure you've got your notebooks, your pens ready for all the ideas. If any of these that you want to use yourself, I will leave items all linked in the description box below for you to simply shop through. Anything that can link anyway will be linked down there. I will be sharing an array of budgets within all of my three gift guides for him, for her and stocking fillers. And Merry Christmas guys. So excited. We've got our little tree in the background, which you may have seen from my previous vlog. But yes, without further ado guys, get your hot chocolates, get cozy, get comfy and let's get into today's video. First things first, I did have a delivery come through the door, a stock up of my vitamins that I use from my vitamins. I do have a discount code with them, which I wanted to mention. They are kindly sponsoring today's video. So if you use the code Freya throughout cyber month, throughout November, there are lots of amazing discounts to be had starting from 55% off RRP. So some really good, big savings. So I've got a selection of some new things and also I'll talk you through a couple of my favorites that I have noticed a big benefit in my health appearance, whatever it may be. So first things first, one of my favorite vitamins that I take is my gut gummies and these are so delicious. I love the gummy flavored vitamins that my vitamins do simply because it's literally like eating sweets. This one has a billion life cultures per serving, really good for the digestive system, guts, gummies, as it says. I also love the hair, skin and nails gummies, which I've been taking for a while now. I've got some new ones to try, the relax gummies. And also I wanted to mention as a potential gift idea for someone who's into their health, their wellbeing as a little maybe stocking full of this one, but multivitamins. They also now do vegan ones in the lemon flavor. Such a variety. Taking my vitamins in the morning is just part of my daily routine now. It has become the norm for me. And whether you want to refresh your skincare routine or focus on your immunity ahead of the winter colder months. Yeah, definitely well worth trying. They even do a few little mini sample packs as well that you can find if you just want to try them. Multivitamin gummies I've got here and these ones I wanted to try. So these are the protein gummies. I also got a sample of one of these to try. So it's called their hydrate pouches with electrolytes, lemon and lime flavor. And you can get these in bigger boxes. They do like a strawberry and cherry flavor as well. But yes, these are some of my new deliveries along with some old favorites, which I've talked about on here before and that I love. Ashwagandha is another one that I love for calm, cool and collected. Well worth checking out my vitamins and also keeping in mind for stocking fillers for Christmas this year. So thank you to them for working with me on today's video. Again, just a friendly reminder, Freya throughout November will get you huge savings. So be sure to click the link in my description box to shop through and use that discount code and yeah, enjoy. So the first thing I'm going to share with you is something that you can get ahead of the game with for Christmas. And these are personalized Christmas cards. So it's not necessarily a gift idea, but I wanted to mention it at the start of this video so that those of you that are looking to do Christmas cards this year, that personalized touch, genius. So this is from a small business called While Hugo Sleeps and I just think they are adorable. So that's the branding and that's how they arrive. While Hugo Sleeps is the business, but just look at the design. We've got a little illustration of both Tom and I, but also Barley. And it just says from ours to yours. They start from around 20 pounds. So it all depends on obviously the amount of cards that you buy. And before I do go any further, because friends and family probably will be receiving those cards. Any friends and family members that are watching, this is your warning to click off now because yeah, there are quite a few gifts in here that I am recommending that may be for you. I loved my calendar, my diary for this year and it was from a small business called Satori. However, she went on maternity leave. She is, I've seen on her Instagram due to come back in 2024, but I don't know if that'll be in time for the kind of 2024 calendars, diaries, but ahead of that and in time for Christmas, I wanted to show you a couple of options from Papier. They come lovely and beautifully wrapped. You can buy them from Selfridges on their own website. This one is the 2024 diary. You can personalize these as well. So mine just says Fro Farrington pages for plans on that. They also do other items such as this, which I thought I would share with you, especially for if you're buying for someone who is a chef and avid cook, loves the baking and cooking. And this is again, personalized for Fro Farrington. And this one is titled Everyday Recipes and is essentially a recipe book that you can fill out, which I just think is such a nice touch for someone who, again, like I said, loves their cooking. Another small business here, this business is called Designed by a Little Bit of Hope. And this was actually a recommendation from a few of you guys. This would be perfect for any new moms out there. So I've got this to share with you and it is a muslin swaddle with these gorgeous teddy bears. It is so soft. I'm going to keep this wrapped up for a friend, but honestly, adorable. Now I saw this actually in Poundland and I thought I would pick it up as a good, fun little gift idea, especially for someone who loves their bath time, loves their pamper time. It reminds me of the kind of bubble baths that Emma Nested, you know, with the shimmer in it and they actually lit up. Just reminds me of that. But this color is just so beautiful. It's like a pearly gold, champagne gold color, which I thought would look lovely in a bathroom. And then you can just take off that I'm reusable sticker and obviously reuse it. It's glass with it being a festive edition. It is cranberry fragranced. So I thought I'd mention that. It wasn't a pound. It was a couple of pounds. I think it was maybe three. Okay. I always include Quality Street from John Lewis every year, seem to, because they have slightly updated versions each year. Basically in the middle of John Lewis, they've got these Quality Street stands where you can fill Quality Street boxes, tins with your selection. So they don't have to be a complete mix. You can pick just one of your favorite flavor or a couple. They always introduce a new flavor each year as well. So this one is the mid range one where it's like a cracker. In fact, it might even be the cheapest one they do, the cracker. About five, 10, 15 pounds are the price mark that you're looking at for these. Quality Street, they do advent calendars as well this year if you want to get ahead of the game, get in there early. And their limited edition flavor this year is a coffee flavored, some kind of coffee, caramel coffee, I think they called it. I have also picked something up from Uniqlo. I've got a couple of stocking filler ideas, which I'll share in a stocking filler gift guide. But I also wanted to share this as a good gift idea because I feel like these went viral and for a reason. They're one of these crossbody bags, which they do in loads of different colors. And it's just a really durable material that is perfect for dog walks, just to have thrown over, crossbody, pop everything in. It's one of those bags that seems like a Mary Beth in these bags that just seems to fit all sorts in. Okay, a bit of a luxury, a bit more expensive purchase this one, and it has to be a pair of Uggs. I feel like a pair of Uggs is such a nice luxury gift to receive, whether it be slippers, whether it be one of their accessories, their dressing gowns, their cult classics, the ultra minis. Now these are notoriously hard to get your hands on, so you have to be early ahead of Christmas especially. This is the sand color. But another addition to those are Ugg insoles. They do sell them on John Lewis for about 20 pounds, I think. Or you can get a more affordable alternative off Amazon. I'll leave these exact ones linked below, but they are just essentially a furry in alignment that you can pop within your shoes, your boots, that are non-Ugg, just for that extra added coziness and warmth. And I think these ones were literally four or five pounds. So I am a coffee table book lover. I love using them for styling. I love actually reading them. Interiors ones in particular I love, and this is a brand new one to the market. So if you're buying for someone who loves their coffee table books, this is a good shout because it's called The Art of Home, written by Shea McGee, and she is just amazing at interior design. The actual cover and design of the book is beautiful, nice and neutral and aesthetic. But yeah, it's filled with imagery that is just so inspirational and gorgeous. I got a selection of items from Next actually. I did do an Instagram reel with all of the Next gifting, starting with the Sophie Allports oven gloves. Obviously she's got the full range of aprons and teatowels and everything on there. But I thought this Christmassy edition with the holly berries would look perfect in our home. So this is a gift from me to me. So they've got these gloves, which are part cashmere. So I thought they would be a perfect kind of luxury, but on a budget item. And then also these packs of socks that they've got. These are the thermal wool blend ankle socks. They also have obviously PJs, loads of pajamas, especially festive ones if you're into that. But they also have things like this little slip dress for evening with the lacy details. Just so pretty, super soft. They also have a lot of beauty items. This one is very aesthetic. We're all about the aesthetics here on this channel. Love my beige and my neutrals. It says quieten the mind and the soul will speak. It's a set of three different face masks with a beauty headband as well. And then also from Next I wanted to share with you as a good little gift idea are these. Now, obviously I love Birkenstock Boston's in Arizona, but they're so hard to get hold of. And also for a more affordable alternative. I think these are a great dupe. So next up is again, another small business and small world. I had a couple of tabs open for this website to shop and then she reached out. Not only did she reach out, it was actually someone I used to work with that owns this business. So Lauren, if you're watching, hello. It's called Swiff, which obviously from the title you might be able to tell it's for our fur friends. So this is suitable for gifting for someone who's got a fur baby or for your own fur baby. They have a brand on their website in particular that I love and it's called Lamb's Wolf Collective. So I've got a couple of items that I thought I would just quickly show you. She also included a little tennis ball, which I will give to Barney later. Yeah, this brand Lamb's Wolf Collective, they do the most aesthetically pleasing toys and also not just toys, but they're kind of enrichment toys as well. So this one for instance, is a squash. They do this one in a couple of different sizes. Nice vibe, nice color, nice aesthetic, but they also, not only does it have squeakers, which I won't do in case there's any fur babies in the background watching at home. But yeah, they do all have squeakers in and then they have these little pouches as well that you can pop treats and hide them in. So it's kind of like a snuffle toy as well. I thought that was genius. And then also they've got this, which comes in this bag and it's basically like a large knot toy, which I think they do in a couple of different designs. This one in particular is like a bouquet fabric that you can essentially knot up and it's like a big kind of again, enrichment toy that they kind of try and undo. You could even like hide some treats in there or whatever. For the ladies out there that like to move their body and like to go to yoga or the gym, I have another small business called Arty & Co. And I've had this bag for a while now. So this is actually my bag, which I thought I would get out and share with you. It's essentially a canvas bag, which is great, massive storage. She does loads of different products on her Etsy. This one is great for yoga in particular because it has this hidden kind of pouch, which you can roll up and put your yoga mat in. Perfect for the Pilates girl, the yoga girl. Okay. I got this for myself not too long ago and I have been loving wearing this. And again, it's a bit of a luxury purchase, but it's from Barber and it's this quilted gilet with the fleece fabric inside. Super soft and cozy and comfy and warm. Perfect for the winter months. We've got something real cozy now, and it's actually from a brand called Cozy Home, who I have worked with previously, but I have been loving this heated throw that they do. Heated throw. You plug it in and you can choose from the settings and yes, it heats up and yes, it looks gorgeous as well because it's nice and faux fur and neutral. And I just honestly love that. Barney cuddles right up next to me whenever I have that on. A couple of TK Maxx HomeSense beauty purchases that I have recently discovered, found, and they had lots of them. Firstly, this set from Massimo Duty. It has hand cream in. It's actually got four different scents. This one was in the clearance for £4 and honestly guys, they had loads of them. And then also I got this from Zara. They've got a lot of Zara in TK Maxx. Have I got that upside down? Yeah. This is called the Bold Edit of Nail Polish, and it's got all of these different colors. So nice kind of red toned, berry toned. Those are the colors on the inside. For any friends and family that struggle to get me gifts, I always just say anything from the white company. The small little items, the candles, the slippers, the PJs, the clothes, whatever. I love the white company and they have a brand new fragrance out. So I thought I would mention this as a great gift idea for the festive season. It's in the scent Nordic Woods, which is eucalyptus, birchwood, and amber. It smells divine. This is one of their larger candles at £65. They've obviously got all the other scents that they do at this time of the year. Buy a side, fair trade. Sorry, I've got some hair in my face and it's, you know when it tickles. Also, the obligatory slipper purchase. I got one of these pairs of slippers for Christmas last year, and honestly guys, they're so comfy and cozy. They're the crossover ones that I personally think they're good for all year round because of them being sort of like exposed a little bit more. It's not too warm. This year they have brought them out in a nice arctic snow white. Perfect for Christmas. So I'm going to share with you a luxury purchase of mine that I have made recently that I thought I would recommend as a gift idea. From Prada, a pair of sunglasses. Now I picked these ones up from Cheshire Oaks. These are just a good classic, simple black kind of cat eye shaped sunglasses that I just think are just such a classic shape. I know I've just said classic twice there, but they're classic, okay? They just have very simple branding there with the Prada on the side. This definitely should be for me. Oh, did you hear the bell in there? There's a bell in there. It was through TikTok that I saw people playing this video, this game, and I just thought it's quite a good concept and definitely one for me. Well, one that I'll probably lose at because I say um quite a lot, especially in my videos. You guys don't know the amount of ums that I cut out and edit out, but essentially you have to describe weird things without hesitating. So there's a little bell where someone was in charge of if anyone goes, um, ding. But when you're having to try and describe something quite often to fill a gap, our brains fill the silence with um, or a hesitation. And I think that can be quite funny to watch whilst people get ding, ding, ding for constantly hesitating. But anyway, I've got that. The next item that I was going to share with you is actually some kind of hamper from Dalesford Farm. So I love Dalesford Farm products. They do do their Christmassy kind of hampers, luxury hampers, honestly guys that go up to, I think about 1500 pounds. But you could do a little DIY. They've got the grocery section on their website. They've got some favorite products of mine, which I'm going to share with you now. And it kind of arrives like this. If you were to do a bit of a DIY hamper, you could just wrap up this box as the gift. Apologies if the angle's just slightly switched up. Battery went. I've been rabbiting on that much. So I'm going to try and whiz through these a little bit quicker. But anyway, Dalesford Farm. So these could be individual stocking filler ideas or like I said, compiled together to make a hamper. So some of my faves, the peppermint tea, absolutely love. Also got one of their new candles in, the scent kindling. Now they do their candles so well. They're just so strong and lovely. The tomato one in particular I love, but this is lovely. Kindling. So yeah, perfect for this time of the year, nice and smoky and woody. I also got another tea. This one is called Dream Time, which is apple, chamomile and lavender. Love this for a cute little stocking filler gift idea. I know we're not on stocking fillers, but hey-ho. All within your hamper. Green zebra tomato, little seeds. They've got loads of different seed packets that all come in these brown paper bags that I just think would be lovely for the gardener. And then also this, which is a little bag of organic mulling spices for making your own mulled wine or mulled cider, mulled apple juice, whatever it is that you want it to do. And then I got a selection of their products from their cleaning range, which I love. Smells incredible. Makes your whole kitchen smell nice. So this is their rosemary washing up liquid. I've also got one of these, which I've not had this one before. This is their bathroom cleaner. Also just ran out of this one. This is their multi-surface cleaner. I've not used this one yet either. This is their rosemary laboratory cleaner. Can I seriously recommend a, essentially, toilet bleach as a gift idea for Christmas? Well, I just have. Just had to go and get the biggest gift. Might save that until the end. I also have this, which I picked up from Look Fantastic. It's called the Jet Setters Edit. So in there, you've got a Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm, that yellow balm there, which everyone and their mom knows and loves. There's also a Pro-Collagen Marine Cream, which is also a fab fave of mine. Pro-Collagen iRevive Mask, Superfood Facial Oil, and then you've also got the French Penny Body Cream and Shower Cream in there as well, along with, of course, the little gift bag. All kind of budget option, but if they've got a velvetiser, whoever it is that you're buying for, some velvetiser sachets are always welcome in this household as little gift ideas. These usually are on offer, three for whatever or two for whatever. I've got this apple fly, apple fly? Apple pie flavor, which I have been loving throughout autumn. So this is kind of new to me. Well, it's new to me. It's not new to the world, but GHD do these straighteners called Unplugged, which I just think is such a great concept, especially for someone who maybe does like to travel. They're in and out of hotels quite a lot. They're just super convenient. So this is actually a gift set, which I think just is a little bit nicer to be able to give someone at Christmas, where you've got the little hairbrush that comes with it, but they are cordless styling. You get 20 minutes of cordless styling with these. So just good for like top-ups, on the go, and they're just rechargeable. It's no secret that I love the Roxy Nafusi Manifest book. I have, oh, I read this one quite quickly actually, because it's fairly easy to read to make. I've probably, yeah, I've lined loads of bits. It's had a good scribble on it, but it kind of encourages that. It's even got a note section at the back, but this would be a great gift for someone who's into, not even necessarily spirituality, but just taking steps to, let me just read off the cover, to living your best life, essentially. Manifesting it into existence. This one I haven't yet read. It's called Manifest Dive Deeper. It's the follow-on from that. They've also got a new Manifest Kids one, if you're looking to buy for kids. And they've also got this, which is called The Journal. And I thought I'd recommend this as a good gift idea for the person who likes to read those kinds of books. More than likely will also maybe have a journal, or have journaled in the past. Not only is it journal in that gorgeous green gift box, but it also looks beautiful. So I would just have this out next to my bed to complete every night. And that's exactly what I'm going to do, because I'm going to keep this one for myself. And I'll just give you a little sneak peek as to what is inside. It's broken down week by week, but it's not dated. So you could start this whenever you want, but it is something that you're kind of meant to follow. I think it's, is it 12 weeks? Yeah, 12 weeks. You kind of meant to follow consecutively, but yeah, you could start this whenever. So I think I probably would like to start this in the new year. I also thought I would throw this in as a gift idea. It's something that I already own, and I literally just grabbed from my kitchen. But I just thought it'd make a really nice gift. Again, for someone who likes the whole neutral beige aesthetics kind of vibe, then this is essentially a linen apron. I'll leave this one linked below. It's just got a couple of pockets on the front and it crosses over at the back. So the way that you put it on is literally just pop that over your head. I just think a nice linen apron for someone who loves to be in the kitchen. I also have got some slippers. Now this is for a brand that I've not tried before. They actually sent me these. So I thought I would share them with you guys. If you want to check out a slightly different brand to the ones that we all know and love. Do do the design. Let me show you this one first, which is very similar to the kind of Ugg style, sheepskin, cozy, you know, and that color as well, by the way. Gorgeous. I love that color. They've also included within these boxes a couple of, because there's one in each, little Christmas decorations. It just says, with love, a little souvenir for you. And this one has, I'm going to pop this on our kitchen tray. This one's got a little cozy mitten in dark brown. And then the other pair of slippers that I've got, which I'll show you in a second, has this inside. Again, another little cozy mitten. And this one's in the same color as the other slippers. These ones are actually called, they're called the Homer boots. I think they are Homer unisex shearling beauty slippers. So I think they do them in other colors, but again, they are unisex. So they're like, I don't know how you would describe them. It's all kind of slip on booty slipper. And they've got the little kind of branding tab on the back. Again, I love this color. And then one of the items that I was very kindly gifted is from Katie Loxton. So Katie Loxton do these gorgeous bags. They do all sorts of sizes, shapes, styles. But they've sent me this bag. Look at the gifting option just for you, Freya, personalized. Because obviously a lot of their bags you can personalize, which I always think personalization is just that extra touch that you can add to a gift to make it feel all the more special. This is the big purchase that I need to like sit back a little bit to share with you. This is one of their weekender bags. I think it's from the new Hattie Bourne collab, I think. I'll leave it linked anyway. But yeah, they've obviously sent me the black one with the personalization as well on there, which is just embroidered a little FF. It's nice and simple. I think it's a great size as well for that kind of weekend bag. It opens up quite big. So anyway, guys, that is going to go ahead and conclude my gift guide for her 2023.
