Gift Idea: Kartel Scotland Watches

It's that time of the year when brands are releasing christmas sets, the days are getting chilly and pumpkins are everywhere. Also the Boots christmas catalog is out now which means that the official countdown to christmas has now begun. Get ready for all the christmas posts over the next couple of months!

The lovely people at Kartel have sent me the gorgeous *Kartel Lewis Rose Gold 40mm RGT Watch (£65) which features a 22mm tan genuine leather strap, stainless steel caseback and it is water resistant up to 30m. It comes in a gorgeous minimal but elegant gift box so it would be a fantastic christmas gift.

I love the watch design, it's so classic and minimal but it's still elegant, striking and great for everyday or for more formal occasions. The leather strap is soft and flexible so it doesn't feel uncomfortable on my wrist and it has enough size markers for my tiny wrist.

The face is quite large, especially compared to the cheaper watches I own but I love it. As a blogger, I love anything that is rose gold so this watch is perfect for me. The warm tan strap and the gorgeous rose gold is a lovely autumnal combination but if you didn't like this colour combination then you should check out their site as they have SO many watch designs to choose from!

Overall, I'm so happy with the watch, I've been wearing it constantly but I think it would be a fantastic christmas gift too as the classic design will be perfect for everyone. Kartel will be offering free engraving on all watches throughout November and December which will make a watch even more special! I cannot recommend Kartel watches enough! Overall rating:  ★★★★★, 5/5!

Urban Retreat Luxury Spa Days at Harrods

To me spa days and pampering treatments are the height of luxury when it comes to looking after yourself and destressing; time for yourself is so important and in an age when we spend probably too much time scrolling through social media *guilty*, being inactive and maybe not eating as healthily as we all could, I think it's additionally important to take some time out to relax and look after yourself. I can't think of anything from luxurious than a spa day at the Urban Retreat spa which is located within the famous and illustrious Harrods department store...yes, I didn't really know about it either and I need to go ASAP.

I have purchased from the Urban Retreat online beautique before which I can't recommend enough (their sales are always amazing) but I didn't know they offered spa days until now. They offer a couple of amazing sounding Moroccan hammam spa packages such as the Signature Hammam and Hair Package (£190) which includes 80 minute treatment, full access to the spa facilities as well as a blow dry by one of Urban Retreat's top stylists - it's sounds incredible! The even more luxurious package, the Half Day Moroccan Hammam Experience, includes an 80 minute treatment, 50 minute massage, blow dry, manicure, pedicure, makeup application and either lunch or afternoon tea.

I think both of the Hammam Packages would make an incredibly wonderful and luxurious gifts, yes, I am already thinking about Christmas...They also offer a range of hair treatments, hair removal options, facials, makeup services, pregnancy treatments, lash and brow treatments, treatments for men and so much more!

If you're overly organised, some say ridiculously so, like me then the Urban Retreat spa days and treatments are definitely worth looking into as possible gift ideas; there are so many opinions, there's something for everyone. This is a sponsored post.

Have you been to the Urban Retreat spa in Harrods? Have you had a spa day? What do you think of these spa day packages?
