Ruby+Ed Chunky Knit Beanie

A few Saturday's ago I received an exciting delivery from Ruby+Ed. I opened my front door and there was a box waiting for me. Inside it was a  beautifully wrapped knitted beanie - just in time for the cold weather setting in.

I'm a big fan of hats and although I have a load of them I don't actually have a nice beanie so it was extra specially great!

I've been aware of Ruby + Ed for quite a few years now but if you haven't heard of them before check out their website. They make luxury loungewear - perfect for gifting your family and friends, or perhaps treating yourself. There is sooooooo much that I want from them at the moment. Their hats have also recently been spotted on the likes of Caggie Dunlop (Made in Chelsea) and Lydia Bright (TOWIE) so I'm in good company.

This particular hat is super soft and I've been wearing it loads since receiving it, including today when Mr M and I ventured out into the cold for a Christmassy day of fun. I've worn it turned up a bit but you could also wear it more slouchy as seen on their website.

Teamed with my big cream shearling coat from Oasis last year, a pair of grey Zara skinnies and the ASOS 'popcorn' jumper I felt very cosy.

One last thing - If like me you love all things Christmas, check out their Christmas competition too (here). They're giving away a pair of their novelty Mr Reindeer Slippers........ I LOVE them!! Perfect for Christmas morning with some Christmas pyjamas and a Christmas jumper...... or is it just me who is planning on wearing that?!? I'm hoping to get Mr M in matching attire too!

Disappearing act

I know, I know. I've been missing in action again...... I promise there's been a load of stuff going on though, such as:

• Interviews - Interview outfit posts to come
• A visit to a brand new and exciting bar - It's a secret bar no less!!
• Mr M's Movember - I have a few progress images to share as well as the moment it was shaved off
• Some new purchases - Very exciting of course
• A new skincare routine - Which I love
• My first published article - Eeeeeek. The excitement!
• A trip to London for a pampering event - Lots of fun
• An exciting delivery from Ruby+Ed - Very cute and cosy
• Christmas day of fun - Dinner at Hotel Du Vin and the purchasing of the BEST Christmas tree ever.
• A spattering of girly gatherings and big nights out - no photos available. Far too incriminating!

All of these posts will come flying your way over the next few days. But in the meantime here's a picture of a cute fluffy dog. Random - for sure. But I bet he made you smile!

Sadly he does not belong to me. However I've put him on my Christmas list, but I don't hold out much hope.
