7. Her Majesty book

This coffee table tome, published to mark the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, celebrates the private and public life of Elizabeth II.

8. Diptyque orange chai candle

Scented candles fall into that category of things that people want but feel a bit decadent splashing out on for themselves, so it’s nice if someone else does. This one, a limited edition from the Parisian maker, is a festive mix of orange, quince and Indian spices.

£25, Selfridges

9. Victoria Beckham grained leather pouch

Think what you like about VB, but her simple, elegant but funky bags are on many girls' wish lists. This colour popping orange number with an exposed zip is cool and versatile - it has detachable shoulder strap, so can be used as a clutch.

10. Lomography La Sardina Metal Edition

Analogue cameras are increasingly popular and this one's a stylish take on the trend. Use it for taking wide-angle snaps or play with the wind-back function to layer photos over each other. The metal and bright blue casing means it makes a cool accessory too.
