OOTD - Shopping/Lunch Trip

Finally, an outfit of the day for you all. It's been a while, mostly because I've had to wear a lot of clothes suitable for the absolutely freezing weather we've had (and are still having).

I went into town yesterday with my friend for some food and shopping and this is what I wore:

Dress - TKMaxx
Cardigan - Exhibit
Boots - George at Asda
Necklaces - Shabby Chic Boutique and Pacsun

Then to keep me warm I had to add more. (boo!)

Coat - H&M
Scarf - Forever 21
Bag - Juicy Couture

Hope you're all having a lovely day!

Blogmas Day 17 - Christmas Gift Guide For Him

As promised, here's my Christmas gift guide for him. I wrote one for her a few days ago, which you can find here. I struggle to find gifts for boys and men at Christmas time, girls are just so much easier to choose from!



I'll start with this fragrance sampler for him from Sephora. I love these and wish I lived in America to take full advantage of them. This gift set contains 12 miniature fragrances, plus a voucher to receive a full size version of your favourite scent. This is such a good idea and is great to try out new things you wouldn't normally consider. Link : click me! Price : $50



I'm choosing this as everyone loves to get DVDS and boxsets for Christmas so they can watch them during the holidays. This is my boyfriends favourite programme on TV and I know it's been quite popular so I'm putting this down as a suggestion! Link : click me! Price : £30







I thought this was quite a good idea for any men who have an iPhone. This is a wallet and phone cover in one so that you don't have to carry too much about. This is from urban outfitters and they have quite a lot of good gift ideas. Link : click me! Price : £18.00

For anyone that has a gamer boyfriend/brother/dad, these are a good present if they like to play games online. This allows them to interact with their friends and other players. These are the Turtle Beach ones, but there are other brands out there available. Link : click me! Price : £12.99
Another gift I found on the Urban Outfitters website and I think it's such a good idea for anyone who likes to have their coffee or tea in the morning. It's a thermal activated mug, and when you add a hot beverage, the characters appear. Link : click me! Price : £10

These lounge pants are available from George at Asda and come in a variety of styles. These are the Where's Wally ones, but they also have Spongebob Squarepants, Sesame Street, Family Guy and others. With the cold weather coming in these are a great idea to stay warm. Link : click me! Price : £10

Once again, just some cheap gifts, but I can do a higher priced gift guide if you'd like that. These are just some basic gift ideas that I think would suit a variety of people so I hope you all like them!

What kind of gifts have you bought the men in your life this year for the holidays?

Blogmas Day 4 - November Favourites


That time again, my favourites of the month. I feel like I've used quite a few different things than what I'm used to this month because of the weather changing.


I got a new eyeliner this month since I started doing the Avon. I got one of their eyeliners as I had always used one of their glimmersticks back when I was in high school. It's called SuperShock and it's very, very black, exactly what I want in my eyeliner. For lip colour, again, it's my MAC Creme Cup which I've mentioned before. I've wore this pretty much everyday in November and it's looking to be the same in December. Another lip product I've been loving is my Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub. My lips are always super dry and they've got even worse in the cold weather so I've tried to use this at night before I go to bed. For nail colour, a nice festive colour, it's Jag-u-are by Essie, again. I've literally been wearing this colour for about 2 weeks solid now, and I just keep repainting it every time it chips.



Another favourite from Avon, and it's their Senses Sparkling 'Celebrate Me' shower gel. It's said to smell like Cassis, Rose and Amber. I don't know what that smells like, but I do know that it smells really good. I've been using this a good few times in the shower during the month of November, as well as my Lush products. For scents, my favourite has been one a fragrance mist from Victoria's Secret, called With A Kiss. I tried to repurchase this during my trip in New York but they don't seem to sell it anymore and I loved it. I'm so glad I kept around half the bottle from last year as it now reminds me of the holiday season. It smells like sparkling berries and magnolia flower if that helps anyone who hasn't smelt it before.


My food favourite for the month has been these Belgian Chocolate Flaked Truffles from Asda. Another one that I was obsessed with last year and I'm so glad they came back in this year, so good!

What were your favourites from the month of November? Any recommendations of anything new I should try?
