The MIDDI Guide to Surviving the Holidays
In search of the finer things in life — because the finest ones still cost too much.The MIDDI Guide to Surviving the HolidaysSharing my tips and finds for keeping the stress of the holiday season in check.I love the holidays. Between the beautiful decorations and delicious treats, it’s a wonderful time of the year. And London is also absolutely magical in December when it’s covered in twinkling lights and with a slight chill in the air. However, the holidays can also be hell on someone as Type A as I am. I like order and routine and despise the chaos of Black Friday shopping (in-store) and the mad dash to board planes, trains and automobiles. But we have to take the good with the bad, don’t we? To help you prepare for the weeks ahead, today I’m sharing some of the tips and buys that get through this hectic season and beyond.
