Christmas Shopping 2024 Begins! | Cannes, French Riviera Vlog
It’s the most wonderful time of the year… almost! In today’s vlog, we start off our Christmas shopping 2024 and take you along as I navigate the festive streets of Cannes on a lovely bank holiday. With my son Seth (nearly 14!) by my side, we explore the twinkling shops and bustling streets to gather ideas and stocking fillers for my 11-year-old daughter Nancy (who’s at dance school today).
Join us as we soak up the early Christmas decorations around the beautiful French Riviera, enjoy the festive buzz, and tackle the challenge of finding the perfect surprises for growing kids!
Later, I’ll share a cosy sit-down chat to show you what we picked up, followed by a trip to our storage unit to dust off the Christmas trees and decorations. This weekend, the big Christmas clean begins as we prep the house for all the festive sparkle.
Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more festive fun, family moments, and life in the South of France!

Good morning to France! I’m online Christmas shopping (Illinois, USA) and Fern popped up. Perfect!
Are you coming home for Christmas??;! X
Yes, can not wait to put tree and decks up, probably soon,why not if it makes you happy. Loved your video 😊❤ xx
You became my guilty pleasure in a difficult time. I am every time surprised how Seth is a 100% mini me of Ryan.
When my last was about their ages we decided (after YouTube video!) to not get presents (well maybe a couple cheap ones) for Christmas and instead use that money for a family trip! Which turned out to be skiing at Park City, Utah. A cool memory. I bought a couple presents in town while they slid down icy mountains on waxed sticks.
Love all your Xmas content and love you taking us shopping. Can't believe it's on the way again!! I'm off for a week in the Austrian Alps first week in December for the xmas markets and snow, so I'll be putting up my decs when I get back. Get me in the mood. Great vlog as always xx
Great fun!
Mrs Mark here. I just dont love pink n red together. Idk why. Lol I'm sure your packages will look lovely as always 😍 My fav time of year!
Great fun, as usual. Nowhere near getting ready for Christmas..
I love those sushi and bowl sets ❤
Hola Fern . Another great video, &:yes motivation & some ideas…. I always usually put our tree up second week in December, but last few years its been round about mid November. Think its because Spain is more the 3 Kings celebrations, and the same atmosphere we love is missing. So its going up this week. Enjoy your decorating, cant wait to see it. Hugs ❤️
I usually decorate right after Thanksgiving, this year I feel like everyone is decorating early. Fern, you’ve really come along way in a short time if you think about it! I suppose you won’t be going to England for the holidays… ps. I love that watch Seth tried on. Happy decorating.., I’m sure your home will look lovely. ✨🎄✨
The tree is already up! However I am adding bits of Christmas all around “a little bit everyday”—like savoring the process!
Fern i love those earrings where are they from??
Hi cute ❤️😊🇺🇸cute videos, wishing happiness life videos
Love your sweater/jacket with the sparkly bows. Where did u get it? Thnx
We moved on Friday our house looks like your storage unit & another vanload arriving tomorrow!!!
You two are a ace team ( you just bounce off each other ) ❤
Looking forward to seeing the dressed tree.
Xmas decs are going up on Sunday 1 Dec in my home.
Usually the first week in December. This year however it will be the 2nd week as I have a new front door being fitted. I know It shouldn't make a difference, but I cant concentrate until its done. 😂
What a lovely start to your video Fern….a beautiful sunny walk by the sea with your handsome boy💙 ….how amazing to have sunshine and warmth….peeps sunbathing on the beach and dipping in the sea in November 😊…some great gifts you have picked so far….and some good shops and department stores to find wonderful things to gift…..its going to look a lot like Christmas 🎄..😊
Seth’s got so tall he’s Ryan’s double great vlog xx
Cool trainers love the retro looking ones very popular in the Uk xx
I say decorate when you want to and are in the mood. That’s what I do whether it’s early or late! 😊
Ho ho ho 🎅🏼 Merry Christmas 🎄tree decorating. Xxx🇬🇧
Fern, it seems like many people around where I live (Coronado, CA) have decorated the outdoors of their homes this weekend. Usually people start decorating Thanksgiving weekend, which is the end of November. Gets one motivated for sure.
I bought my teen daughter the pink Longchamp bag for school a couple of years ago (in Cannes actually😊) but it got so stained I replaced it this September with a navy one! I have the Longchamp travel-bag in pink for myself, it’s a great quality well priced bag for weekends away!
Tree going up this weekend as we are off to Bordeaux on the 26th so I want to make the most of it🎄❤
Happy Christmas prep to you!
Love sharing your Christmas prep,I live in a small cottage so no room for a tree but I do hang branch's from the beams trimmed up with greenery, lights and bubbles so seeing your tree is lovely.oh I love your knit so pretty 😊 xx
Seth is Ryan's mini-me!
It's not clear to me that Cannes, where is the climate and the weather, how summer is it, you buy that nonsense, no hate, but it's still time Mihojslko, it's still summer
Stop tapping your nail… so annoying
Hi Fern love Christmas time & the lead up to it ….Yes a great time to start your xmas shopping & get the tree dressed 🎄love the Sushi bowls & little dishes , Seth is so tall the twin to his Dad …..I'm starting to decorate my front porch & gardens this week can't wait . Can't wait to see your tree Fern thank you wonderful vlog 🇨🇦
Love your videos. You're really living the life. I'm in rustic Italy but I just adore the South of France, there's just something special about it, ooh and the style too! You have such a lovely family, I moved here when my three were younger, 8, 10 and 12. They're all grown up now. I can certainly relate to your every day life issues and triumphs!
Love Seth’s SD hat! Watching from San Diego!
Our tree went up last Saturday
