Time is running out and you are panicking. The shops are packed, it’s too late to shop online and you don’t have time to meander. For those of you who have left your shopping this late here are a few last minute suggestions where you’ll still have time to leg it down the high street, grab your goods and then throw it under the tree.
Gold Rush
This opulent Gold Dust, made with 24 carat gold is to be dusted over shoulders to leave a delicious fragrance with an elegant shimmer.
Launched by Ormonde Jayne, this stunning gold dusting powder is housed in a black lacquered handmade gold box crafted by British carpenters. The lavish puff is hand sewn in French satin with a beautiful champagne coloured marabou feather trim.
Gold Dust is perfumed with the rare and exotic Ta’if Rose. Ta’if Roses are harvested only during April and are hand picked early each morning, five thousand feet above the shores of the Red Sea and overlooking the Arabian Desert.
As Linda Pilkington, creator and owner, summed it up: “The ultimate in decadence and glamour for that bit of vampish femme fatale in all of us.”
£400 for 15ml gold dusting power and handmade puff. Exclusively available from Ormonde Jayne, Harrods, Black Hall, London, SW1X 7XL, 020 7730 1234
