There's nothing better than a cosy night in, especially when it's cold and wet outside.
Marks and Spencer is offering a range of different hampers for shoppers just in time for the festive season. From foodie treats like the ultimate M&S collection to the Italian Collection, or even the 'Sip Back & Relax' hamper, there's plenty to choose from.
A hamper can be a great gift for a loved one, and whenever I've received one in the past I've felt incredibly spoilt. As much as this time of year is for giving, it's also great to treat yourself - and that's exactly what I've done.

The 'Cosy Home Hamper' features everything you need for a quiet night in in front of the telly with a Christmas film and a Baileys. It includes a Faux Alpaca Throw, a Heart Boucle Eye Mask and an Alphabet Bergamot Candle all in a luxurious gold print base square giftbox.
I'm very fond of popping into town and buying myself a new outfit or some makeup, but I've never really bought anything designed for self-care. Let's just say I'm so glad I did, because I felt extremely pampered after purchasing this hamper - which means it'd make an amazing gift too.
Firstly, let's talk about the Faux Alpaca Throw, because I've never felt anything so soft in my life. It was incredible quality, very thick, and in a stunning cream colour.
Let me tell you, I was in absolute heaven in this thick bundle of warmth, it was honestly like being wrapped in a cloud it was that warm and cosy. It came as no shock that my pet dog Penny absolutely loved it too, but I tried to keep her mucky paws away as much as possible.
The Heart Boucle Eye Mask was a lovely addition, and considering I don't really wear eye masks, I've been using this particular item a surprising amount. It felt really soft and fluffy on my eyes which was a bonus considering they can get very sensitive.
Although the candle didn't look particularly big, it had an absolutely lovely strong scent. The bergamot came through really nicely but it wasn't too overpowering which was great.
Sometimes candles can have a sickly overbearing scent, but the M&S Alphabet Bergamot Candle offered just enough of a refreshing smell without it being too much. Aesthetically it looked great too, with an adorable heart print on the front.
It's so easy to see where this hamper gets its name, because as soon as I used the contents of the box I felt incredibly relaxed and peaceful. My favourite item by far was the throw, which felt so luxurious and fluffy.
This hamper would be a great gift for someone that you think deserves a relaxing treat, or just for a little pamper for yourself. Originally priced at £55, the hamper is down to £33 giving shoppers 40% off.
