I know this is a bit late, but wanted to share some of my presents from Christmas, and I've really enjoyed being nosey reading other posts, so thought it was fair I contributed. I was very spoilt considering we don't really do big Christmas presents, I'm going to share a few things I would normally feature on my blog, i.e. beauty & fashion related etc!
Top Left: Yankee Candles. White Christmas which is a very fresh scent, reminds me of freshly washed clothes. Not something I would pick myself, but I've been burning it for the last few hours and I actually real like it. Medium candle in Farmer's Market which is a a very festive spicy scent. They were both from my lovely mother, who shares my love for candles.
Top Right: From my brother and his girlfriend was the Lush Christmas gift box, Happy Christmas. I did a little squel of delight when I opened it. It contained, Christmas Eve bubble bar, Satsumo Santa, Golder Wonder bath ballistic, Snowcake soap, Lil' Lush pudding and Candy can soap. Cannot wait to use them!
Bottom Left: Is from my gorgeous housemate for secret santa, and it was the Merry & Bright gift box, obviously from Lush. And had the Northern Lights soap, which is so fresh and citrus-y as well as the Glogg showergel which smells like spicey cinnamon!
Bottom Right: Perfume galore! I asked for two of these, Chanel Coco Mademoiselle from my dad, and Paco Rabanne's Lady Million, which I have been lusting over for ages. My lovely brother bought it for me. And the boy did very very well, I think I mentioned to him once back in September how much I loved Armani Diamonds Black Carat and he remembered, bless him! He apparently had to traipse around the Bull Ring looking for one.
Left: Soap & Glory Higher Shower & Perfume Atomiser. Lovelovelove the scent of the S&G bits, come's with a moisturizer, shower lotion, body spray as well as a rather fetching showe cap and poof! The atomiser is such a lovely little gift, I've thought about getting one, but never did. If only I could figure out how to get it to work!
Right: French Connection Purse. I spotted this bargain while scouring TK Maxx with my mom for last minute gifts, and she kindly bought it for me and wrapped it for Christmas. It was only £15 and I was in desperate need for it a purse. It's a gorgeous deep green/blue and has lots of space for coins, and is real leather. Exactly what I've been looking for!
I also asked for some muji acrylic drawers, but they got delayed in the post, and when they did arrive one of the draws was broken! D'oh. Hopefully in the near future I'll do a make up storage post to show them off!
Hope everyone was as happy as I was with what they got. Big thank you to my lovely family who, like always, spoil me and buy me lovely, thoughtful things.
