Everything
Something bold, something blue, something gold, something new – yes, it’s a familiar rhyme but it works perfectly for the inspiration behind this year’s Christmas Gift Guide. Green and red might be the traditional colours associated with the festive month, but in Australia blue and gold are much more appropriate when you take into consideration what an Australian Christmas looks like: the blue of the summer sky, the gold of the sand along our coastlines.
It doesn’t hurt that they’re aesthetically the perfect companions either. Henceforth, the pristine blue and exquisite gold gift inspirations to get you into the Christmas spirit. One for each of the 12 days of Christmas.
