Hey Lovelies!
Tell you what I think this may be the last post where I can get away with a Christmas inspired title! I’m rather sad Christmas is over, you always spend so much time preparing and buying presents and then it just whizzes by in a blur of turkey, wrapping paper and tinsel! At least we still have NYE to come…
So I know these posts can be a little controversial but personally I love them, I love seeing what people receive for Christmas as it almost gives me inspiration for my next wish list, I’m also a right nosey so and so so I love having a little peek at presents. I received some gorgeous presents this year so wanted to share them with you all, everyone knows me so well 😉
I haven’t photographed everything, I’ve missed out the mountain of chocolate for example and clothes, underwear and pyjamas but right now I am typing this post up whilst sitting in my new fleecy leopard print pjs, you know you’re getting old when you love lounging around in fleecy pjs! I also got lots of lovely underwear and socks but I thought that might be a bit weird putting that on the Internet!
So let’s start with the make up, I received some lovely make up items this year, my boyfriend took note of my Christmas wish list and treated me to two MAC lippies, a MAC blusher and some real techniques brushes which are amazing! My Mum treated me to some gorgeous Bobbi Brown goodies, I especially love this eye palette which has a beautiful champagne gold and a matte brown! I also got some lovely drugstore goodies, 17 eyeshadows, Body Shop items and much more!

Moving onto bath stuff now, I got enough to last me till next Christmas I’m sure! I got some old favourites, Body Shop coconut goodies and lots of Soap and Glory lovelies! My Dad got me a few kits which included Soap and Glory body lotion, shower cream and I’ve finally got my hands on the Breakfast Scrub which just smells DIVINE!

Finally moving onto the main present from my Dad which was an complete surprise, a Kindle! Accompanied with a baby pink case! I wasn’t expecting a Kindle at all, but will be very useful indeed as I love reading but tend to not buy books as they’re quite costly and you don’t know what to do when you’ve read them! I’ve already downloaded a couple of books and can’t wait to get stuck into them! I also received a couple of books from my Mum which are based in New York and a Cheryl book! I also received the Cheryl 2012 calender! 🙂 I think my boyfriend was relieved it wasn’t the One Direction one, though speaking of those boys look at the AMAZING card my sister gave me! Personalised and it says inside ‘Keep Calm and Love One Direction.’
I’ll leave you with that little quote now! I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing what I got, link me up to any posts you’ve done with your presents, please note I’m not bragging at all, I’ve been very lucky and spoilt by everyone! I will be posting reviews on these products once I’ve used them a little more 🙂 I’m finally going to leave you with a little snapshot of our Christmas, being the very modern family we decided to take a family portrait at each family house as we never take pictures, this picture is my favourite out of the lot, purely for my boyfriend’s face (he was joking btw, he didn’t dislike his presents that much!)
I hope you all have a brilliant evening, tonight me and my sister will be partaking in some cleaning (boring) and painting our nails!
