Late Christmas Post!

Hello everyone! Oh dear, I apologise. It has been a while. I seem to be starting all my posts with an apology lately and this one doesn't seem to be an exception!
My exams start on Friday eek! I need to do fairly well in these hence the hardcore revision sessions and that lack of posting. Anyway, I took some time out yesterday to take a few photos of some of the lovely presents I got for Christmas.

1)


My mum bought me this. This perfume is lovely. I've been wearing the same one for a while now (Carcharel Amor Amor, which is also great) and so a new perfume was a welcome change! It lasts a long while, sometimes in the evening I still manage to get a whiff of it. It has a gorgeous gentle and subtle smell which I prefer to strong fruity perfumes. I really recommend it.

2)
              

These lovely things are all from the boyfriend. He also bought be some really funky toe socks but they were in the wash. Like the tshirt? Tough because he made it. Apparently it's not too hard to do though :) I absolutely love my necklaces. The owl necklace is really subtle and cute, and I've wanted an amethyst necklace forever so it was a lovely surprise.

3)


Some of the bottoms I got! The two skirts are from Topshop and I asked for them so they weren't exactly a surprise but either way, I love them! Especially the green one, it's really lightweight and the colour is beaut. I bought the shorts on impulse because it was on sale on Urban Outfitters for £15. They sold out so quickly! I'm glad I got a pair but they are very tight at the top and I wouldn't call them true to size. Luckily I've lost some weight recently so this wasn't too much of a problem for me.

These are some of the lovely green tops I got. The first one is from Urban Outfitters. I wanted it for ages but I couldnt justify the price plus postage and packaging, suddenly, there was free postage and packaging and I was on it straight away! It's a lovely top and really comfortable. The other top was from my brother and is from Topshop. I have a similar one in white. I love the fit, the colour and the pattern is really nice. 

5)

Last thing, I promise! This is a scarf that my neighbours got be and it really is gorgeous. The colours are so lovely. Purples, blues and greens are a favourite of mine. The sequins make it look really classy too. 

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed having a butchers and that you had a lovely Christmas. I'm going to do some more revision now, hooray. Adios and thank you for reading.x

Would love for christmas

Helloooo guys. Again, I'm having to apologise for not posting anything in a long while. It's been a mad couple of weeks. Anyway here's a little wishlist! Enjoy.

  1. Jersey Skater Skirt- £16 from Topshop
  2. Lip Crayon In Arcade- £7 from Topshop 
  3. Kristen. Green Gemstone Necklace- £16 from Regal Rose
  4. Green Speckle Skater Skirt- £16 from Topshop
  5. A Million Kisses Lip Tint- £5.50 from Lush
  6. Vitamin E Hand And Nail Treatment- £8 from The Body Shop
  7. Nails In Ashes And Fire- £6 from Topshop 
  8. Grey Marl Speckle Skater Skirt- £16 from Topshop
Fairly Topshop heavy post but I just love these skirts! Also, I already have the lip crayon. It's a lovely plum/red colour when applied lightly but quite purple when put on heavily. When I want to go for a bolder colour I like to mix it in with a red shade to get a deep burgundy. 
I hope you have a lovely weekend! Can't wait for Christmas to get here. Thanks for reading.x

  3. Navy Velvet Skater Skirt from Fashion Union- £16

My life at the moment

I've not really been sure about what to post recently so I thought I'd just do a load of pictures summarising my life at this moment in time. Considering I don't have photoshop I'm pretty pleased with this!

  1. I'm doing a lot of revision recently (thanks A-levels) so I've given different days different priorities. Today is my "maths day", which includes a lot of mechanics revision as I have the exam in January. Hooray.
  2. Again, more maths. I've not started C4 at the moment so it's just C3. I'm also doing a C1 retake in January so I'm trying to revise that too.
  3. I ordered this top from Monki the other day and I'm really excited for it to get here. It was on sale and only cost me £4!
  4. I ordered this bag from Monki as well. This cost £6 but was not on sale. It was all good until I saw how much the postage and packaging was (£6!). I bought them both anyway though because they're both lovely and a bag and top from town would probably cost more than £16. 
  5. UCAS- ugh. My tutor submitted my application recently and I wasn't aware until I got an email from UCAS telling me that they had it. Luckily there was nothing I wanted to change on it. I know that Leicester currently have my application and are considering it but I don't know about any of the others yet! It's all pretty terrifying. 
  6. I know everyone and their mother has velvet clothes at the moment but I love this velvet skirt from Topshop and really want it. Maybe it'll be mine once I get some more money.
  7. I thought these raccoon gloves from Accessorize were really cute and would quite like them for the winter. It's getting cooler and cooler outside. I can't be doing with waking up while it's still dark either, it's so demotivating! 
  8. This lovely lad is Orlando Higginbottom a.k.a Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs and I have the pleasure of seeing him live on Tuesday! I'm so excited! 
  9. This is a really nice, basic skirt from River Island  which would go well with quite a few of my tops and jumpers. Hopefully I can get my hands on it soon! 
  10. I ordered this coconut body butter a couple of days ago from The Body Shop and I'm eagerly anticipating using it.  
So that's me at the moment! I doubt I have any readers but feel free to comment with what you're up to recently. Is there anything you've got your eye on for this winter? 
Thanks for reading!x
