Technogym Wellness Ball – Active Sitting
If you know someone who spends a lot of their time sitting, Technogym’s Wellness Ball, Active Sitting, might be a welcome present.

S’well has long been fighting plastic bottle consumption in the most stylish way possible, and this Christmas is no different. Their new Earth collection, including this Bahamas Gold Marble bottle, celebrates the world in all its forms. BPA free and made from double-walled, non-toxic stainless steel and a vacuum seal (which helps keep your drinks cold for 24 hours and hot for 12), it’s not just a pretty face either.
