Aaah Christmas… Its magic, the excitement, its good little meals… And most of all, its generalized stress! Every year, we start this over. We get the gifts at the last minute, the shops are full and everybody is worked up. Long live christmas ! And every 26th December I tell myself the same thing : Harmo, next year, your gifts in August you’ll buy. And 12 moths later, I pack the last gifts around midnight of the 24th… But in 2016, I finally apply my good resolutions, and decided to share them with you. Here below you will find my selection for her and for him. At D-24, the countdown has begun, it’s time to get started if you don’t want to end up with your head in the stuffing.

A novelty from the beauty department : the new Dyson hairdryer. As beautiful as powerful, finally a little revival.

Made of stainless steel, this design bottle available in several versions will delight the sportive as well as the thirsty ones. Keeps water fresh for 24 hours and warm for 12 hours and its airtight lid ensures transport without the risk of leaking.
