From a guys perspective, buying for a girl can be difficult... there's almost too much choice in most cases!
These are a few picks I've seen online that I'd love to give my friends or receive myself! Price ranges from £9 to £150!
Obviously, these are just ideas to start you off! If you like the idea of gifting boots, have a look for ones you think are perfect and in your price range!
Yankee Christmas Cookie Candle // Naked Palette // Hudson Boots // Blue Lagoon Statement Necklace // Hamsa Leather Watch // Warm & Cosy Hot Water Bottle // Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish // Freedom Silk Make-up Bag // Jo Malone Sweet Almond and Macaroon Candle
There'll be some more picks up later this week!

Secret Santa's can be a bugger to buy...
Price limits, not knowing the person well enough or having no clue where to even start!
But, there is also a lot of fun to be had in buying a Secret Santa gift! These are some of my top Secret Santa picks!
Some are unisex, but most are for women. I tend to go down the jokey route for men, as lets face it, they're impossible to buy for! Sorry boys...
The Body Shop Glazed Apple Treat Box // Daisy Floral Phone Case // Travelcard Wallet // Clinique Whole Lotta Chubby Gift Set // My Future Listography Book // Xmas Party Props // Retro Sweets // Selfie Stick // Funny Quote Tea Towel // Bunny Ring Holder // Molton Brown Tree Decoration Soap // iPhone Fish Eye Lens
With the most expensive item here being the 'Clinique Whole Lotta Chubby Gift Set' at £20 and the lowest being the Fish Eye Lens and Xmas Party Props at £5, these gifts are great for any lower budget for Secret Santa!
What are you thinking of purchasing?

Whilst in Cornwall soaking up the lovely summer sun, we decided to venture to the Lost Gardens of Heligan.
These beautiful gardens have been restored after they were neglected after World War One.
It is absolutely crazy to think that all this beauty was hidden under a thick blanket of brambles, moss and ivy and some of it, even after all this years, is still being discovered.
'Giants Head'
Look at this cheeky chappy peeking up at us!
'The Sleeping Goddess'
How serene and peaceful does she look?
Snoozing under the canopy of the spring trees, speckled with sun and shade.
Luce and I being avid rope climbers (naaat) jumped at the chance to climb up this little bank. Our decent was ever so graceful and delicate and definitely did not end up with us both covered in dust and mud...
Spot the figure in the tree....
Ladies legs!
Look at them having a giggle about me, due to the position I had to assume to take this photo over a stream...
...'A blogger's gotta do, what a blogger's gotta do!'
Anyone need a lifeguard?
I love these shots of Mum, Anna and Luce.
Mr Dove popped his head out to say hello!
All that tree climbing left us knackered so a lunch of organic and delicious food, grown in the garden itself was definitely a good choice.
Followed up my cornish ice cream, of course!
Sea Salted Caramel for me, Clotted Cream Vanilla for Anna, Oriental Ginger for Lucy and Crunchy Honeycomb for Mum.
Perfect doors for littl'uns like Luce and I...
Have a watch of the vlog I filmed during our trip!
With it being the start of summer and a trip to cornwall always being on the cards, Lucy, her mum, Anna, My mum and myself took ourselves off for a little trip to the seaside.
Anna and Lucy have the cutest cottage down there, so the four of us stayed there.

After a long afternoon of travelling the first place we hit was the pub for food.
It was gooo-od, as I said in a previous post any burger with gherkins on is good enough for me, so this one went down very well!
But the dessert. Oh boy, the most amazing sticky toffee pudding ever.
It was like eating a toffee flavoured cloud.
So light and drenched in toffee sauce.
Try and resist licking the screen. I know, it's hard...

We ventured to the Lost Gardens Of Heligan (Separate blog post to follow!)
Then after, we hit the beach!
Luce and I booked a surf lesson for Day Three. I have ALWAYS wanted to learn to surf!
We tried to convince the mums to have a kayak lesson... they weren't having any of it!
We retreated back to the cottage (after some food & clothes shopping...) for a bbq and a night in.

We visited Wheal Kitty. So beautiful and picturesque.
The bright blue sky reflected on the sea making it a gorgeous deep blue which faded into a beautiful turquoise.
What a beauty Luce is!
Just look at the colour of the sea!
Makes me want to just dive right in!
Just posing on a cliff, because we can!
The rest of the day continued with a surfing lesson!
We had water up our noses, salt in our hair and a hell of a lot of laughs.
'If in doubt, paddle out!'
We had such a lovely instructor and we both had the best time. I'd recommend Breakers Surf School to anyone in St Agnes wanting to learn!
The evening was spent watching England (lose) in the World Cup at the pub, then drowning our sorrows in that sticky toffee pudding!
D a y F o u r = hometime!
