Just as all the big celebrity events wrap up for the year, the Christmas presents have started rolling in . . . And aren't we loving it! BellaSugar editor Alison's been a lucky girl, receiving all sorts of pretty goodies to try out before the holiday break — we're talking Tom Ford fragrances, Model Co lipsticks and nail polishes in the greatest colours imaginable and so much more. Fashion editor Ali also got in on the fun, checking out Fab new pieces from Cotton On, Mink Pink and Some Days Lovin', and receiving a sweet pair of customised Havaianas. Have we mentioned the cake pops, delish advent calendars, cherries and Tim Tams we consumed? It's all in here and more — just click through to check it all out!

The party season is in full swing and let us just say, it's a feast of bright lips and perfect manis. We love a good lesson in beauty maths, and today's schooling is on party lip and nail combos. Sometimes the most unlikely colours can look pretty breathtaking together, and we've got five options we think you'll love.

Seeing as though you've got your Christmas shopping organised early this year (or maybe you can just pretend), it's only fair you buy yourself something special for the festive season. There's some lovely new products on shelf this month, as well as some Summer saviours to help keep you looking beautiful throughout the warmer months. Let's roll!

We've been on a bridal countdown for a couple of months now, and after covering off any major skin and cosmetic concerns, mastering the at-home facial and even highlighting our favourite bridal lippies — it's finally time to talk about the nails. Now before you start thinking about the perfect nude or blush pink, let us take you on a rather edgy talon journey with not-so-traditional but very alluring colours. Think black, deep burgundy and glitter.

Deciding on a lip colour to wear on your wedding day can be tricky — especially if you don't wear lipstick very often. The first step to getting the perfect colour match is to know your skin tone, and then you can choose from the five or so lip colour classics — all suitable for a beautiful, blushing bride. You probably saw this coming, but we've collated them for you... From nude to red and those colours in between, click through.

We know. The perfect mix of hot and cute, right? As the Sunglass Hut global ambassador, Georgia May Jagger brought her signature style of vixen-meets-minx beauty to Sydney this week for the return of the brand's pop up floating store on Sydney Harbour. We were so excited to meet Britain's petite slice of rock royalty so we could quiz her on all things hair, makeup and skincare — click through to find out her beauty secrets.

It was a sunny day in Old Blighty back in 2006, when supe Kate Moss stepped out in high-waisted flares and a grey t-shirt. This simple, '70s inspired outfit sent the entire world into a spin and saw flared jeans land in stores the world over. Her hair was typically effortless, with what looked to be barely and product and little to no makeup. The no makeup, makeup look is more than a thing right now — and in true Mossy style, she's been rocking years before us. Sigh. In this week's Icons Kit, we channel Kate Moss, the'70s dream.

One of the strongest makeup look to come out of New York fashion week so far is the minimalist. Whether it be nude lips at Victoria Beckham, neutral nails at Zac Posen (and Derek Lam and Thakoon), white nails at Rag & Bone, barely there makeup at Altuzarra and Charlotte Ronson and clean, natural hair at Jill Stuart; this Spring is looking like a beautifully plain one. There's an emphasis on strong brows and contouring on the face, with nude (and matte) nails reigning supreme. In this week's colour story, we're taking our cues from the runway and going back to basics. Just remember that this isn't about no makeup, this is about nude makeup with a dash of dewy, highlighted cheekbones to boot — all hail the minimalist.

If all the bright colours in store have temporarily blinded you and you've missed the memo, neon is the trend right now and it'll be sticking around for the next few months. Wearing neon — whether it be yellow, pink, orange or lime green — is not for the faint hearted, but an easy and subtle way to incorporate the trend into your daily look is through beauty. Neon nail polish is having a huge moment, and the bright lipsticks of seasons past are getting, well, brighter! But don't stop with makeup, you can fluoro-ify your tools and accessories, too. It's time to be bright, babes.
