Blogmas Day 11: Red and Black OOTD
Hello Lovelies!
Day 11 already! December sure is a speedy month! It's finally holiday time for me, so expect my posts to be more on time!
Recently I've been loving red and black. So I thought I'd share with you a red and black outfit which I love. There's something so festive about red, or it might be my inner desire to match Father Christmas!
Anyways I hope you like it:
This top is from Zara, Skirt is from J Crew.
Overall it's a simple outfit which is super easy and comfy to wear and put together.
Have you bought any outfits lately?

Hello Lovelies!
Almost a week through December! I can't quite believe it!
Today I thought I'd share with you a few quirky gifts which would be great for your loved ones this Christmas!
First is this amazing pouch. I think it speaks the truth for all us Instagram lovers out there. I love the design and love the phrase. So if you know someone who would love a gift like this, hit up Francesca's.
Sorry but the next gift involves a mug! Maybe there's too much mug overload on my blog lately but if you're a coffee addict like me, I'm sure you'll understand!
This mug is from Target, and reads: "Caffeine is the new black" The mug speaks the truth too!
Lastly if you want to spend a little more on a cute gift, this mini Kate Spade keychain is definitely a winner! It's seriously cute, will stop someone from losing their keys and also comes in a wide choice of colours!
Have you got any gift recommendations lately?

Blogmas Day 5: H&M Beauty Department
Hello Lovelies!
I was very excited when I went into one of my local H&M stores and found a whole new beauty department. It was full of so many makeup and beauty goodies! I spent ages debating which goodies to buy as of course I couldn't leave empty handed!
I just love the sophisticated yet simple packaging they have. It makes the makeup look so classy and what I love even more is the very attractive price!
On my trip I picked up three things which were two eyeshadows and a lip liner. The eyeshadows were in the shades Ginger Snap and Baci Di Dama. I am so impressed by them as they are really beautiful, very pigmented and glittery. They wear so well and deliver that perfect amount of sparkle, which will be great for any Christmas events.
The lip liner I picked up was in the shade Au Naturel. A really lovely neutral shade which matches all those nude and neutral toned lipsticks you might have. I know that this one is definitely one of the handiest shades to have at the ready in your handbag!
I think I might be in love with their beauty department already, I cannot wait to pick up some more goodies. Do you have any recommendations for me?

Blogmas: Anthropologie finds
Hello Lovelies!
For some reason my post meant for yesterday didn't work, so here it comes!
I've been a bit obsessed with Anthropologie lately, if you saw my post from Day 1 of Blogmas you'll have seen the cutest mugs which I got from there. However it's not only mugs that I've been buying!
I know this Pumpkin Souffle candle may be more Fall related than Winter, but it smells way too good not to have a special mention of its own! Pumpkin candles are among my favourite scents and this candle is part of their Boulangerie line. Think pumpkin pastry, maple syrup and ginger flavours rolled into the cutest jar! It really smells so good that you just want to eat it. It gives your room a lovely relaxing sweet scent. As it's got gold writing on the front, I had to pair it with my Copper Lantern String lights. These are just the cutest fairy lights that give off that cosy kind of vibe when illuminated. Perfect for a snuggly night in for the run up to Christmas. My room now definitely feels and smells a lot sweeter!
What are you favourite things to make your room feel all snug?

Blogmas Day 2: Black Boots
Hello Lovelies!
For the second day of December I thought I would share with you some beautiful new shoes of mine. These are definitely so perfect for the festive season as they can be worn with your favourite LBD or festive dress.
These black booties are called the Nutcracker Dress Booties and they are from Nine West. These were one of the bargains which I managed to pick up on Black Friday. The booties were such a steal as they were half price and they are still even on offer now!
I always find the shoes from Nine West to be so comfortable and they always last so well. I must admit I was pretty smug with myself for picking up these shoes as they just fit so perfectly and look so great! Bargains are the best!
Have you managed to pick up any great bargains lately?

Blogmas Day 1: Cosy Mugs
Hello Lovelies!
I can't quite believe how quickly this year has gone! The last few months have been pretty crazy and jam packed so unfortunately my blog suffered a little bit! However I thought it was time that changed, so expect lots of new posts as I attempt to do Blogmas again! There's nothing better than lots of Christmas inspired posts to get you in the mood for the big day!
Lately I've been loving mugs a bit too much. For some reason a warm drink tastes better in your favourite mug!
Both of these mugs are my ultimate favourites and are totally perfect for feeling warm and cosy. Cue fairy lights and Christmas music! These are both from Anthropologie and I can't decide which one I love the most!
Nothing better than a bit of mug motivation. So if you're looking for a mug related gift for a loved one this festive season, these mugs sure are a great gift!
Have you got a favourite mug or any recommendations from Anthropologie?
Happy December!
