Y’s top Christmas buys
Accessories really do make lovely Christmas gifts. In between all of our other expenses, an extravagant pair of earrings or a silky scarf are not always things we would buy for ourselves, so they make thoughtful and personal presents (plus you get the ease of online shopping which means you can do it in your PJs without having to battle the Westfield car park!).
To make things even easier, we have listed the y diary’s top 5 picks for perfect gifts!
1. The Patch Paint Scarf is artsy and cute – a smashing summer staple for the new season. Can be worn around your head for some boho chic or in a bow around your neck for frenchy fun!

2. Forget a strand of pearls- for something more fresh and modern, try the 3 row resin necklace. It comes in three gorgeous colour combinations and the best part is, the strands are already connected for you, so there is no way you can get them lost or tangled!

3. Shoes are the ultimate accessory and I am just in love with these orange snakeskin sandals (they also come in dark navy, but punchy colours are super for summer) Providing welcome relief from killer heels, they are just as stylish as stilettos!

4. Back to the classics now with this cute cloud cardi- something fun to throw over a corporate dress on casual Fridays or pair with jeans and a singlet for a relaxed weekend look. It might be sweltering now, but you can never have too many wardrobe essentials for the chilly evenings…!

5. In your present purchasing frenzy, you mustn’t forget the men in your life (elk haven’t!) Check out the mr elk section for these cute as pie cufflinks. The ‘Elk’ style is perfect for Christmas and looks just like little reindeer! Link: http://www.elkaccessories.com.au/collections/18/mr-elk/83/silver-cufflinks/296/cufflinks#1552
Happy Christmas shopping!
