I dette nummeret

It’s finally acceptable to play festive tunes, add to our wish lists and embrace all things Christmas! So, stock up that cocktail trolley, and enjoy what is, in my opinion, the best time of the year. Don’t worry if you’re in need of some inspo to get you into the spirit of things, you’ve come to the right place as we have packed this issue with all things seasonal, with a 20-page mini mag which starts on page 57. Inside you’ll find an under £50 gift guide, the top Christmas schemes for the year, style advice for every room, plus three fantastic decorating looks from stylist Laurie Davidson. Of course, we also have more amazing reader homes for you; and we’ve gone behind the scenes to find out how they like to decorate and spend the big day. Our cover girl Frankie’s home is pastel perfection, and I love how she’s kept the theme going with her decs too. Read more on page 18. If you’re still searching for the ideal gift, we have 10 of the top gizmos to impress even the fussiest recipient over on page 92. They’ll make the ultimate stocking filler. Of course, food is always a big part of the day, so we also have a mouth-watering Christmas Day menu on page 118, with a rather amazing snow and ice cake finale on page 120!
