Buongiorno from Florence! My December has begun with a bit of a difference this year after flying out to Italy yesterday for twenty four hours in the city. Although I've only managed to see a very small part it's a beautiful place and one I'd love to come back to some time. Florence is absolutely full of festive cheer right now and the Christmas lights are out in full swing!

Speaking of feeling festive, there are quite a few things I wanted to update you on this month. Starting of course with the big V.. Vlogmas! I'm going to be vlogging daily and fitting vlogs in around regular scheduled content - so look out for them on Tuesdays and Fridays (you can see the first instalment here!).

You might also have seen a little announcement video I put up this week about the #HollyJollyCollabmas series that Suzie and I have been working on in November. Every Thursday in the run up to Christmas there will be a festive video on both our channels! If you're not subscribed to Suzie already, make sure you do so to keep up with the videos each week! There'll be everything from festive baking to gift guides and even an attempt at assembling a ginger bread house (spoiler: it didn't exactly go to plan..).
I'll also be hosting a meet up next week alongside Suzie with Kiehl's at their Regent Street store which is going to be a night full of drinks, goody bags and of course my favourite thing.. chatting about skincare! If you're available on Wednesday 9th at 7-9pm you can enter to win a tic...
