Does anyone else ever experience ‘a perfect storm’ leading into Christmas? As in, a million things to do at work, packing to travel for the holiday and purchasing those all-important last-minute gifts. No matter how organized I try to be, it hits me every year! Then, add in the fact that I have a birthday the week before Christmas on December 17. Despite all the craziness, here’s a few recent highlights to share – a festive stroll through Marylebone and how I celebrated my birthday!
Is it just me or did 2018 fly by in a flash? While I wish I had made more time to write in this lil old blog in 2018, I continue to be amazed by how much traffic my blog gets, plus the top posts that bring people to The SavvyBostonian. Inspired by the most-read posts this year, here are my top blog posts to share with you.
‘Tis the season in London…for festive celebrations! Every December, life in London is jam-packed with fun events, Christmas parties, and seasonal pop-ups. For me, this week included all of the above. From a super cool yet festive Sipsmith gin rooftop pop-up lounge to Christmas parties and discovering a chic winter lodge called Neverland, this week was anything but dull.
They say you cannot teach an old dog new tricks, but what about an OG blogger!? Inspired by the number of weekly vlogs and blog post round-ups I love to read and watch, I thought I would try my hand at it. Every week is an adventure for me, from events, to travels, cool new product discoveries, shopping finds, new London hotspots, and many, many more. I’m going to try a new format – blog post summary and more in depth YouTube video – depending on how you prefer to consume content. Please let me know if you like these formats and what you would like to see or hear more about!
It’s that time of year! The time when we try to find the perfect gift for everyone on our list. Inspired by a few items I recently purchased in London, here are a few cute gift ideas from John Lewis, Primark, Oliver Bonas, Boots Mini Club, and Flying Tiger.
