December Favourties

Hello lovelies, today I thought instead of boring you with every single thing I got for Christmas I would just do a favourites post with some of the things I go this month. It was incredibly hard to choose as I got so many amazing things this year. I actually don't think i've ever had as much!







So I managed to choose 7 things for this months favourites out of all of the amazing things I got this year. I've got quite a big mix into what I've got this month and some are a little random.







First, my beloved Michael Kors watch. I actually had no idea I was getting this at all. I literally mentioned it to my dad in a passing comment. I hadn't even looked myself into which one i'd really love but they chose well because it is very me. I do really like the big ones but now I have this one it is just so much more suited to me.



It is beautiful. And I am still not used to watches that tell you the date and day and everything, never had a fancy watch before. It's pretty cool.










Next, and this was a total shock too. This was a present from work! All 13 of us got Chanel perfume. I was amazed but it is fast becoming my favourite smell in the world. I'd never had chanel before, or even smelt this one so I feel so lucky to have got this from work when my friends have been like, I got a tub of celebrations.




These next two are a little different. The first one my boyfriend got me which is the Friends DVDs. We actually started watching them together as I (Don't hurt me) have never actually seen friends all the way through. We watched them online and it got a bit of a pain so one of the presents he got me was the whole box set, which I am loving.

The next is the cutest thing I have ever seen. Its a little Macbook Air pocket mirror! Its honestly such a perfect copy but just mini and its a mirror!
Best Invention ever! My mum got me this one because she knows I love cute little things.


My mum also got me this too, it's a book with '500 words you should know'. Now my friends already joke about how I speak with big fancy words so this book is perfect to give them a bit more to joke about. Plus with me doing a Journalism degree it's always good to know big words. I'll give you some examples:

Rejoinder

A reply that is especially sharp and witty. 'The dazzling rejoinder I should have made came to me half an hour later, long after I put the phone down'

Eschew

Nothing to do with chewing, this is instead connected with shy in the sense of 'to shy away from'. It means to avoid, to abstain from: you might eschew chocolate for lent.

Hope you guys learnt some new words there, if you knew either of those I am totally stunned.



Also in that picture were the Ted Baker lipsticks I received. I actually got three in the pack, but I left one at Uni. Whoops. The colours you get in the pack are actually lovely, you get a red, a pink and a nude. All are equally as lovely.







And best till last - My very first Tiffany necklace! (Or Tiffany anything) This is the other present my boyfriend treated me too, and I love it. He knew I needed a necklace to wear everyday, nothing majorly big or too statement. And this is perfect.

He did very well. I wouldn't have even thought about Tiffany (other than for engagement rings, obviously)




I have been ridiculously spoilt last month, I hope you all have been too! Let me know what your favourite Christmas present of 2014 was.

October Favourites

Hello lovelies, its that time of year again. First of the month, everyone blogging about their favourites of the month. Now I haven't done one every month, because there are just some months where I don't feel I have enough of what i've been loving to share with you. But here we are this month with a few things I have for you! 



So I have 5 for you this time, one of them being a bit out there, but you'll soon see I couldn't not put it in. But that to come later, first the 3 beauty products I have been loving.


I'll start with the EOS lip balm, now i'm pretty sure i've had one of these on my previous favourites but I recently bought one in the flavour mint, and so this had to be in my favourites as I love them so much. This has been by my bed and in my handbag constantly since i've had it.




Next my Mac blush, I actually bought this a while back but I didn't actually wear it all that much because I had this bronzer I liked, but one day i forgot this bronzer at home and I used this and loved it so much more, it stays on for a lot longer and is a really autumnal colour.

Lastly for beauty products, I picked up this Rimmel salon pro nail varnish from the Kate Moss collection. Its in the shade 'Soul Session' and the reason I bought this was because I've recently got a part time job working at Pandora and they only like you to wear nude and natural colours and my nail collection is severely lacking in the nude colours. I have to say, I really like the look of the nudes on nails, it is really subtle but still looks nice. 

Next, I received a Ted Baker Ipad case as a late birthday present from a friend and it is beautiful. There isn't much more I can say about it really but I totally recommend any of the Ted Baker products, the only thing I don't really like are the big bags in the similar style to my Ipad case. I think for what they cost, they don't look that great and they scratch so easily too (especially in black) But I adore the handbags, just so expensive for poor students like myself.



And finally - The car key. I realise this is a bit different to put in a favourites but this month I got a car, and not just any car, my dream car I have wanted since I was about 15 and in a colour I totally adore! I am the luckiest girl in the world to get this. It's a fiat 500, in the colour mint. His name is Pascal and I don't think I could be any happier with him. So now you can see why I had to put him in my favourites this month. 


So that's that for this month, bit of a mix match but all favourites none the less. Let me know if you have had any weird favourites like me this month!

Bag Wishlist

Hello lovelies, recently whenever I go into shops I am just totally drawn to the bag section and love looking at them all. So I thought I would do a post with a few of my favorites and what I will be buying (hopefully) in the near future. 





1. This is a sort of Céline replica bag which I am loving, and this will most probably be my first purchase. It's just such a classic looking bag. The one I found on Ebay, here, I'm not sure what the quality will be like as it is reasonably cheap (£26.99) but I will keep you posted.





2. The second one is a bag from River Island which is a lovely mint colour with black. I am totally loving mint at the moment and my car I will be getting hopefully very soon will also be mint so I want this to match with all the excitement. You can buy this here for £40.00.





3. Thirdly, another minty/ blue colour, but more pastel. Another thing I am loving right now, everything pastel! I hope they never go out of style. This one is a bargain at £11.95, which you can buy here on Ebay. When I do purchase this I really hope the quality will be good, which is obviously one thing you will be sceptical about.







4. Next, Is a little Ted Baker make up bag. I already have a big wash bag for majority of my makeup but I really want a little one to just keep in my handbag. This one is £22.00 and you can get it online here, but I will probably get it from selfridges or something in the hope of having student discount.











5. I've got a lot of blue and mint bags on my wish list this time and I really like this pink bag from New Look. And it is now on sale for £17.24 online, here.











6. This is another one from New Look, and the one thing that stood out to me on this were the handles. The length of the straps are pretty perfect and not like every bag you see today. I saw this bag on ASOS, here, for £24.99.













5. And lastly, another blue one. Slightly more pricey but I don't own a little bag like this other than clutch bags for going out and I really love the little chain. And for what it is it is slightly more pricey, £39.00. But it is very cute and again from ASOS, here.










And that is my bag wishlist... for now. I will let you know about some of the products from Ebay and if they are good quality. Let me know if you like any of these or what you've found that you love! Thanks for reading.
