1. Lucifer Rucksack: £250 - P&Co // Handmade to the highest quality, the sleek Lucifer rucksack is the perfect bag for both business and casual use.

2. Cheap Monday Beanie: £20 - ASOS // You can't go wrong with a simple beanie, I love the rich olive colour of this one and any man is sure to love it.

3. Neville Shave & Face Wash: £22 - ASOS // As manly as grooming is going to get - great for the stubborn boy that needs a bit of a pamper.

4. Jack Wills Somersby Wallet: £39.50 - ASOS // A good quality wallet can last years, so a leather wallet is the perfect gift for a man of any age.

5. Russell Howard Tickets: £27.50 each - The O2 // There's nothing better than letting go and having a laugh at a stand up show, I chose Russell Howard as I think he's hilarious, but The O2 offer a wide selection of show tickets if your man is more into music!

6. Skate Deck: £27.39 - Agape Attire // I can't leave out the skater boys!  This skate deck is made of Canadian maple wood and features a super rad illustration.

7. Black Hook Bracelet: £10 - Urban Outfitters // I'm not usually one for man jewellery but this hook bracelet has a rustic masculine vibe which I love.

8. Vans Herringbone Plimsolls: £60 - ASOS // A step up from the usual canvas Vans, these add a refined touch whilst still being casual.

10. 'Undergrowth' Phone case: £15 - Honour Over Glory // A phone case is a universal gift that's really easy to make personal, and Honour Over Glory have a great range of designs.

11. Original Ray-Ban Wayfarers: £120 - ASOS // The classic wayfarers suit any face shape and although not too weather appropriate at the moment, they'll last for years to come.

12. Witchcraft Socks: £10 - Drop Dead // Socks are one of the safest bets to give as gifts, so why not spice it up with a patterned pair!

13. Augustus Tee: £20 - Exit Left Apparel // Minimalistic designs are really on trend at the moment and ELA never disappoint, get 10% off your order with code 'AVJRG2'

14. Braided Leather Keyfob: £17.96 - Club Monaco // For the travelling man, this keyfob keeps everything close and secure.

It may or may not have taken me absolutely ages to put this together, but I thought it would be a great idea if any of you are having a Christmas present crisis.  I tried to pick out items that would suit all the men in your life; from your boyfriend to your granddad - I hope this gave you some inspiration!  Let me know any ideas you all have as I'm not even halfway done with my Christmas shopping and I'm always open to suggestions!

I've felt a little down today, having a bit of a future crisis so editing some outfit photos is a nice way to distract myself!  I absolutely adore this velvet skirt, and think it brightens up an otherwise dark outfit and I love how the soft texture clashes with the speckled blazer.  For some reason, skirts have been a huge part of my autumn/winter outfits this year, pretty much cancelling out denim shorts, which is big, as they were all I ever used to wear!  I'm also a bit of a newbie to the whole blouse-under-jumper thing, but I like how the stripes add a subtle monochrome detail - definitely something I'm going to be wearing more often!

5/ Clothes Show Live outfit (Missguided jacket & Ark playsuit)  6/ CSL purchases

A slow start to this week but ended well with me going to The Clothes Show Live (it's been a tradition since 2007!) and actually not spending too much money - go me!  Still have a lot of Christmas shopping ahead of me though, just need to brave the cold weather and heaving crowds!

As always this is quite the photo heavy post, but I loved so many looks this month I couldn't leave any out! I love how every blogger is so different with their own personal style and I'm always looking for new people to follow, so leave your favourites below and maybe they'll feature next month!

A little late posting today but I really wanted to get something in before I went to bed.  No doubt I'll stay up replying to my endless stream of emails until 2am because I'm the worst (or best) procrastinator!  I love how this dress sucks me in, and the floral mixed with the tartan looks great - definitely got my eyes on the tartan leggings next, I think they're so awesome!  I have paired denim vests with my LovelySally dresses in the past, but they just go so well together, plus this Gypsy Warrior one is a new addition to my wardrobe so of course I had to feature it on my blog!  The best thing about this dress is that you can instantly dress it down by throwing on a cropped mohair jumper, sheer tights and some clunky boots; definitely good value for money!
