Wishes at christmas


So every year my parents, and the rest of my family always ask me for ideas for christmas. This year I wasn't really sure what I wanted as I got so many lovely things for my birthday, and for the past few years as I got older, I buy most of the things I want myself and so I was extremely unsure of what I wanted. I came up with a few things which I wanted, however I know I am not going to get everything, but i just thought of a few things that I would like to have. These are also some things that I am thinking of buying during the lead up to christmas. 
1. Benefit Hula Bronzer - I have wanted this bronzer for so long, but I have never got the chance to buy it. I have always loved the safe, cheaper option of the Bourjois chocolate bronzer, however I really want to try something new and since this product has ALWAYS been raved about, I thought this would be an ideal thing to ask for as a christmas gift. 

2. Mac Mineralise Skin Finish - I have recently really wanted a mineralise skin finish, and I thought christmas would be the perfect time to ask for one. I was going to buy one in duty free when I went on holiday, as my mum told me she would treat me to something as it was my birthday, however I fell in love with an OPI nail polish and never ended up buying the skin finish. Everyone knows how great this product is and I really want to try it out too!

3. Christmas Eve Yankee Candle -I love candles and anything that smells amazing, however I do not have much of a collection. I smelt a few candles in a christmas shop the other day and was not to keen on them, however the Christmas Eve candle by Yankee Candle was the only one that did not appear there. I heard Tanya Burr was in love with it, and I am sure I would love it too. 

4. The Perks Of Being A Wallflower DVD - I rented this film out the other day on apple TV, and I absolutely fell in love with it. It is so cute, so relatable in ways, and the acting is brilliant.

5. Short Classic Tan Ugg Boots - I love how the short Ugg boots look, as I am not very keen on the ones which are long or the really short ones. I think they would be perfect for fall, winter and spring, and so I could wear them for a long time each year. They are however very pricey, but the amount I would wear them, I think this would be an amazing present, so if you are looking for a gift for girls or boys, Ugg boots are ideal!

6. Rose Gold Watch -  I would really like a watch, as I find it so hard to know what the time with since I don't actually own any decent, working watches, and since I have to restart my phone about 5 times a day, the time is always wrong. This is why I am usually late for things and I think it is about time I got a new watch! This is the reason I am asking for one for christmas.

7. River Island/Topshop cut out boots - I have seen these boots around for a few months, and I am absolutely in love with them! They are slightly pricey at £70, however they would go with a lot of outfits! I think they would look really nice with lace/frilled socks. 

8. Benefit They're Real Mascara- This mascara has been out for so long, but I am yet to jump on the band wagon and try. There is not much to say, apart from the fact that everyone knows just how amazing this mascara is and I really want to try it!

9. Claires Snowflake Earrings - I would really like I nice pair of christmassy earrings to wear for christmas day, boxing day and the lead up to christmas. Since I have only just got my ears pierced and I got my ears pierced at Claire's, I figured it would be a good place to buy them from.



What is on your christmas list?

It's beginning to look a lot like christmas ☆








First Seasonal Starbucks Cup Of 2013!   |  Mocks...  |  Feeling festive in my jumper  |  My dad went to the Lyndt factory whilst in Germany and bought these back for me  |  & this chocolate coin!  |  favourite nail polishes at the moment  |  Christmassy nails  | my dad got handed out free millions in test tubes by people dressed up as scientist at this convention he went on with his work!  | 



I was on the way home from physio and I really fancied a Starbucks, and so I made my mum drive round past Starbucks, so I could get myself a hot chocolate. I am not normally a 'typical Starbucks' girl, because I hate tea and coffee, but my new local Starbucks has all of the hot chocolates and I think I have a slight obsession with their hazelnut hot chocolates now!
I seriously cannot believe it is the 11th of november and I am already saying that literally everywhere I go, I am reminded of the glorious festivity that is christmas. I am slightly annoyed that everything becoming Christmassy is all so early this year, as I still have a lot of mocks, revising, and school left until I can actually enjoy the build up of christmas! I have never seen so many christmas adverts, even though it is not even mid november yet! I am starting to get the excited feeling inside so early this year, and I am so excited! Especially after I went shopping in London yesterday and I saw all the christmas lights, it was so pretty and I swear it gets prettier every year.


I cannot believe it is that time of the year again!

So i'll make whirlpools, and watch him sparkle




 







I'm really enjoying my life at the moment. Yes at times I get depressed, but I always have one of my friends to pick me back up when I need them. I have been having such an amazing time recently, and just trying to enjoy life for once, which kind of explains for the lack of blog posts. I have been trying to work hard at school because since this is my last 6 months, and I really want to make it count. Especially since I really want to get into a good college, and the fact that I have no idea what career path I want to take on. Anyway, I don't know about anyone else, but I am feeling so wintery and festive, especially since it is bonfire night tonight and there are fireworks going off everywhere! I went to a firework party the other night with a few of my friends, (as you can see from the pictures) and had such a good time. I can really see myself getting more sociable and more happy with my life! Sorry if you found this post boring but I really want to get into photography and I find these kind of posts a lot more interesting in my opinion!
