What I Got For Christmas




So heyyyyy everybody! Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year (even though christmas was a month ago..). But as you know I am not the best at keeping these things regular! My internet is shocking and so many other reasons, but I am so done with explaining why cos it must seem like I am  making these all up but I swear I am not lying! I always have a valid reason as to why I haven't blogged.. Because trust me if I had the free time and the internet, I would be blogging 24/7!

So yes this is late, but somebody asked me to do a 'what I got for christmas' post so, better late than never! I just thought I would show you guys a few of the things family and friends got me for Christmas. I spent my christmas this year in Oman with my family, so it was really weird waking up to sunshine and heat instead of putting on dressing gowns and looking at the snow outside. I love the traditional christmas, so it was really strange not having that this year. But, it was a nice change because I got to see my family :3 Anyhoo, here's my lil Christmas post and I hope you guys enjoy it.
PS. Sorry if there are spelling mistakes, I am typing without my glasses so its a bit hard to see if everything is right lol. Enjoy!


Victoria's Secret
I got a couple of makeup bags from VS for Christmas, because you know, you can never have enough! One of them is like a little case, and the other 2 are more for putting in a handbag. I keep my makeup that I use everyday in the case, and I usually bring the larger handbag one when I am staying in my boyfriends or a friends house. And the little one is perfect for putting in your handbag, or keeping the essentials with you when you go to college or work. 
I also got the 'mango temptation' fragrance mist, which is to die for. It keeps you smelling fresh all day and the mixtures of the scents in it are just beautiful. 
                     




MAC makeup 
Before this makeup, I was a MAC virgin. Yes I am aware how terrible that is. For Christmas, I got this gorgeous smokey eye palette, and the design on the front is just beautifffuuulllll. So vintage and so me. The name on it just says 'keepsakes'. The colours in the palette go really well with my dark brown eyes, but I am sure they would look good on any eye colour!
I also got a retro matte lipstick in shade 'ruby woo' and a lip pencil in shade 'cherry'. These two go really well together, but I have used the lip liner with other lipsticks that I have!! 







Bits & Bobs
One of the nice things about christmas are the stocking fillers. Santa knows me too well by putting in chocolate and books! All of these presents are amazing! Who doesn't love a good gluten free cook book and Frozen? ;) 








Clothes etc. 
Most of the clothes below are from Forever 21, Garage and Zara. Feel free to ask where each item is from!
















Crosley Record Player
And I saved the best 'til last! My boyfriend got me a Crosley Record Player! I love it so much! The colour is like a 60s blue and the record player itself is like a vintage travel case. It is so beautiful and the sound from it is amazing! He also got me my favourite album on vinyl, Taylor Swift 1989. It was such a good idea for a christmas present. I totally recommend this to everyone, guys and dolls!



So thats all from me. Hope you enjoyed this late christmas post! Hope you all had a good christmas and are enjoying the new year.  Thanks you guys. 

Love,
