At the beginning of November I got an invite to attend the Marks & Spencer Christmas Press Show. Which I immediately replied to since I heart M&S. And Christmas. I got a couple of grainy phone pics of the spread while I was there.
The food was gorgeous and the drinks were dangerous. We didn’t catch the names of the cocktails that were available, but one was cinnamon infused vodka with cranberry juice {tasted just like cinnamon hearts!} and another was whiskey, port and champagne – no mixer. They really got us in the festive spirit, whether we liked it or not.
After copious canapes, and delicious desserts, out came more waiters with a huge cheese platters. I was a little too overwhelmed to snap more pics as the night went on. Yeah, overwhelmed.
After the Christmas temptation was over, we each left with a M&S gift bag full of Christmassy delights – a tin of M&S Festive Caramels, M&S Peppermint Bark {aka, Christmas in a tin}, an adorable sparkly fluffy seal tree decoration, a Marcel Wanders pure silk scarf {in more gorgeous detail below}, and a super warm pair of argyle tights.
Phwoar. How gorgeous is my new scarf? Diamonds and acorns and bees with antlers. A turkey on top of an elephant on top of a pug who has a gold pendent on his collar. I like the way you think, Mr. Wanders.
