Country Bumpkin Chic & Friends Christmas Gift Guide 2019

Hello, or should I say Ho! Ho! Ho! as we enter December & officially Christmas month?

This Christmas I’ve teamed up with some of my favourite brands & friends of Country Bumpkin Chic to bring you my take on what to buy loved ones for Christmas with a Christmas Gift Guide 2019.

Plus, you could be in with a chance of winning some fabulous products from these gorgeous brands over on my Instagram page @becky_wren. We’ll be dropping down chances for you to win goodies daily at the beginning of December until Tuesday 10th December.

BRAMBLEWOOD SOAP 

BrambleWood is a new Dorset based skincare brand offering hand-made natural soap & bath goodies. All products are palm oil free, vegan friendly & made with organic, simple, natural ingredients.​

BrambleWood’s philosophy is that natural, chemical free skincare should not cost the earth or impact the earth, & are proud that all their packaging is plastic free and eco-friendly. ​

Insider info: I used to work with the lovely BrambleWood Soap founder Laura at New Look many years ago & I’m very excited for her new business, as she’s has a great eye for product & her gorgeous skincare range looks fab for friends & family members.

 

 

The gorgeous smelling soaps are perfect for a stocking filler at £4.75 & why not push the boat out for a fabulous lavender gift box at £15.

SPORTARM

Sportarm was founded over 30 years ago in the heart of Dorchester, Dorset (CBC’s home town!) & has rapidly grown to become a multi-award-winning gunroom, lifestyle shop & country sports specialist.

Repeatedly voted ‘Best UK Gun Shop’ since 2006, the team is passionate about the countryside, & stock amazing country brands like Fairfax & Favor, Schoffel, Hicks & Brown & Barbour – both online & in-store.

We’re loving the Monty Slippers from Barbour at £59.99 – they’ll be perfect for a dad, brother, uncle or boyfriend for getting cosy after Christmas dinner by the fire.

Country Bumpkin Chic is rather fond of a head band & love the new beige & pink head warmer from Annabel Brocks at £45.00.

You can’t go wrong with a pair of Fairfax & Favor tassels at £20 for the lady that has a bit of a F&F addiction. And we think the aqua marine would look perfect on a coastal Boxing Day walk.

Inspired by equestrian heritage & the British countryside, each design is built to last using the vegetable tanned leathers & solid brass fittings. The personal service includes monogramming options on all their leather goods.

M&G have been a firm favourite of Country Bumpkin Chic’s since first meeting one of the founder’s Melanie at the first ever #HihoAndCo in September 2018 – you can read my interview with Mel here.

 

Fedoras from £49 & Feather Pins from £35 will keep you super stylish at those point to points over the winter or even get prepped for Badminton 2020.

You can’t go wrong with one of the M&G belts from £39, I love the Badminton belt pictured (£59) in chestnut & chocolate, & wear my Ledbury skinny (£49) all the time at the moment.

The Windsor clutch bag at £89 is a perfect addition to the wardrobe & can easily see you from day to night. Plus there is a matching Windsor belt too!

We’re loving her equestrian ‘Day in the Life’ range for the equestrian fanatics with prices starting from £3 & of course all country bumpkins love a G&T, so the drinks boards would be perfect for post countryside / equestrian escapades.

 

We’re a bit in love with the horse life cosmetic bag at £17.50, which would also be handy as a wash bag, accessories or even a plaiting bag!

A day in the life eventing tea towel at £11 would be perfect for any equestrian home or lorry for those stay away events.

Pour me a drink G&T board at £12 would make a great addition to the kitchen or lorry for those post horsey parties or to get the real party started!
