Fashion: Last minute goodies for under the tree

Dec 21 2009 By Lisa Piddington

Just four sleeps until we can finally rip up the wrapping paper and pull open the stockings and discover if we’ve been a good girl and got all that we wished for.

So here’s keeping my fingers crossed and revealing just what I’d like to find under the tree this week.

1: I can never resist the shiny lure of sequins and so this multicoloured clutch from Accessorize has really caught my eye. It costs £35.

2: There’s something so wonderfully kitsch about these jewellery busts from Juicy Couture – and I can’t help but want one for Christmas. Choose from pink or green and each 15in statue comes with either a necklace or earrings. Priced from £70 at Harvey Nichols.

3: This gorgeous bow necklace, £18 from Freedom at Top Shop, would add instant style to any wardrobe and will last well into the new season. Yes please!

4: I do love heritage prints… this brings out the schoolmarm in me! This coat from Bon Marche ticks all the trend boxes and is a great buy at £55.
