There are some things in life which you discover and then wonder how you had managed to live without for so long. Such as Nespresso’s fabulous Aeroccino (above). This little chrome trinket foams your milk to perfection and will ensure that your daily cappuccinos will leave you with a generous milk moustache. May I suggest that you use skim milk as this tends to produce the frothiest of foams.

For a natural alternative to shower gels filled with nasty chemicals, look to SapoFactur’s organic Glycerin Lavender gel. This delicate soap contains only natural ingredients, including top-quality French lavender oil and over 44% of glycerin, and will ensure that your skin remains soft and supple. Pick it up online from Saint Charles’ Apotheke.

Those that know me well will know that I simply cannot live without cupcakes. So you can imagine my delight when I stumbled upon Rose and Radish’s latest creations: lacquer cupcake bowls. Made in Vietnam by Wetter Indochine, these delicious little containers have a removable lid, and can be used to store everything from your rings and earrings to your keys. A perfect idea for filling those stockings this Christmas (hey, it’s never to early to start planning…)
