Merry Christmas

Just a quick message to wish my followers/readers a very Merry Christmas. I hope all the presents you've dreamed of are under the tree tomorrow morning and all your wishes come true!
Posts have been a bit slow lately on VN, but come new year I will be back with a bang, with some new features to share too.

All I Want For Christmas

Christmas is just around the corner and I am in full festive mood. It is probably my favourite time of year, as it is for a  lot of people and shopping for the perfect gifts can be stressful for some. I don't let it get stressful, I prefer to start my gift buying early which makes it more enjoyable, taking my time to pick out something great, rather than rushing last minute and buying something half-hearted. And in return when it comes to receiving gifts, luckily my friends and family know me well enough to choose things for me that I would love and would suit my personality and interests, so thankfully I never get disastrous gifts!
So I took it upon myself to put together a Christmas Shopping Guide for you all, which is half a wish-list of gifts I would love to find under the tree on Christmas morning and half a guide of some wonderful things that would make great Christmas gifts for the special people in your life.
So lets get to it-

Dance

As a fan of pretty much all forms of dance it will be clear why this editorial from the November issue of WSJ (Wall Street Journal) Magazine instantly grabbed my attention. The shapes and clean lines, the great styling, the energy... I just adore these pictures.
