Cute Food! Babycakes Waffle Makers

Everyone loves waffles, right? There's nothing quite like the sweet, droolsome scent as they're baking (although the Philosophy shower gel does get pretty damn close).  These cutesy

Glee Easter Egg - Cheery Must Have Mug!

OK so it's hardly the chocolate and packaging porn that is the Vivienne Westwood for Fortnum & Mason collection, and it was swiftly eschewed by a 10 year old in Tesco who's "so over Glee" because "all they do is sing", but I love this Glee Easter Egg! More specifically I'm totally taken with its surprisingly tasteful, fun rainbow mug which really made me smile - and at £4 is a right bargain - I just hope there isn't a group shot of the gurning cast on the other side...

Glossybox x Harrods Miniature Beauty inc. Burberry Lip Cover

Readers of my Huffington Post blog will already know how much I love Glossybox.  Being a sucker for anything tiny or trial size, this beauty service which collates five of the best new high end products around each month - and, btw, they're not always miniatures - totally speaks to me. Handy for travelling as well as trying out the latest goodies, Glossybox makes a great gift to yourself as well as for treating friends (boys or girls - they do men's versions too).

Scuse dodgy sideways pic - Blogger's obviously trying to be funny today

For a super luxe version, Glossybox have teamed up with the iconic London department store, to produce The Harrods Edition, which includes miniature skincare products from the likes of Yves Saint Laurent and Clarins. My favourite from the Harrods Glossybox is this purse-sized Burberry Lip Cover in Rosewood (pictured) - a densely moisturising lipstick in a universally flattering pink-tinged cinnamon shade which makes you look instantly more polished, even if the rest of your make up did only take two tube stops *ahem*.

SO CLEVER - VINTAGE JELLY MOULD LIGHTS FROM RE

I've only just discovered the wondrous Northumberland store, RE, which specialises in locally made, original, recycled products and found objects.  More about them soon but for now, how cool are these quirky vintage jelly mould lights (£48 each)?  Check out the online store at www.re-foundobjects.com and keep an eye out for their 700sq foot, 4th floor permanent store-in-store which opens at Liberty in March selling rare, recycled, rescued and restored homewares and accessories.  You can also visit them at their Corbridge shop, half an hour from Newcastle, at Bishops Yard, Main Street, Corbridge, Northumberland NE45 5LA.

FASHION WEEK FOODIE TREAT: MATTHEW WILLIAMSON X LADUREE

It's the gift that keeps on giving - Matthew Williamson has created a special Fashion Week gift for Ladurée featuring one of his signature colourful print designs and, if you're a hoarder like me, this perfect trinket box will long outlast the mouth watering macaroons inside (NOM though).

Ladurée's Matthew Williamson Macaroon Gift Box contains eight of the now international French tea salon's most famous creations.  It will be available from its London stores in Covent Garden, the Burlington Arcade and Harrods from this Friday (16th September - the first day of London Fashion Week), then follows the fash pack to Paris where it'll be on sale from September 27 for €15,60.
