Mernie Gilmore finds out what’s hot to shop this week
HOME
It might still be cold and gloomy outside but you can brighten up your bedroom in an instant with this cheerful floral bed linen from George at Asda. Taking inspiration from the 70s homeware trend, the vibrant print will add a pop of colour to your home. Prices start at £11 for a single set.
VALENTINES
You will not find a cuter Valentine’s gift idea than these Little Lovebirds, £3, from Hotel Chocolat. This trio of white chocolate and raspberry treats would make the perfect little gift for someone you love – if you can bring yourself to give them away! Find them instore and online at hotelchocolat.com.
HEALTH
Let’s face it, bathroom scales tend to be functional over attractive. But this new Salter Turtle Glass Electronic Bathroom Scale, £24.99 (salterhomewares.co.uk) would be a gorgeous addition to any bathroom with its beautiful and relaxing image of a turtle swimming in the ocean.
BEAUTY
We love Aldi for beauty bargains and this deliciously scented Lacura Vanilla Honey Golden Bath Nectar, £5.99, is the perfect addition to a long, hot soak. The vanilla and honey scent is sweet and comforting and it’s packed with softening ingredients to soothe dry skin.
EAT
Upgrade your breakfast or lunch with these new Three Grain Sourdough Bagels from the New York Bakery Co, £1.80. Chewy and filling, they are topped with nutrient-packed poppy seeds and linseeds, and taste delicious toasted. Find them in Sainsbury’s and Tesco.
