Hello!!! Hope you are all having a great break (if you're lucky enough to be off) and that you had a great Xmas.
I would like to say thank you to all my loyal followers and welcome to my new ones. I was super chuffed to see I am now over 1000!! Was such a shock as I haven't been blogging since Christmas. Yay!
So I'll get back to blogging real soon but I'm going to continue chilling over the next few days. Following which there will be reviews, hauls, and FOTDs and more!!
In the meantime here's some pictures of what I've been doing mostly!! Yes, shopping and pictures of myself!!!
Hope you're having as girlie a time as me! Oh and I won't actually be going anywhere to celebrate NYE this year really. There was nothing worth doing where I live!!
Maybe next year!
Have a good one xxx

So I finally took the plunge and signed up to the Feel Unique Beauty Box. This was my first box so I was excited to see what was in it, even though it felt like an age before it arrived in the post!
I think I would have been excited no matter what was in it but the good thing is there are actually things in this I will use and want to try. Goody!
As you can see, the items were as follows:-

As you can see, the items were as follows:-
- TIGI Bed Head Candy Fixations Sugar Dust £9.35
- Annick Goutal Mandragore Eau De Toilette Spray £62.05
- Clarisonic Gentle Hydro Cleanser £21.00
- Nails inc Nail Polish Colour £11.00
- Figs & Rouge Sweet Geranium 100% Organic Balm £3.49
- Also, Living Nature once usage samples of cleanser, toning gel and nourishing day cream
I can't comment on my thoughts on any of these items yet other than the perfume, which I would say isn't really to my taste, but isn't in anyway offensive. I will certainly review the rest as soon as I have been able to try them properly. How exciting.
Anyone else got this box? What do you think? How does it compare to other beauty boxes?
Happy Sunday lovelies!! Hope you're all well.
I've been mad busy with the lead up to Xmas and work. Crazzzzeeeeee time. Bet you're the same!
At least Xmas is nearly here though. I'm hoping that the snow keeps away. There's just been a little dusting here but a lot of ice. And it's very chilli. Which meant I had to purchase a new hat on Friday. It's from a little boutique in Southport and I LOVE it. It's such a lovely peacock blue!
What kind of hats do you wear in winter if any?? It always depends on my mood and how brave I'm feeling too as I feel they are a bit of a statement!
Have a great Sunday and don't forget to enter my Xmas giveaway above if you haven't already!! It ends next week xxxx

So next week is my Christmas party and it's been near impossible to find something to wear!!! All the dresses out there don't seem to suit my shape AT ALL.
Anyway, here's what I have chosen... What do you think?? It's a 3 course meal and then dancing at a hotel in Manchester. Hope it's in keeping with what everyone else seems to wear - its always hard to know with work dos!
Wearing it with black tights and shoe boots so it's a little less girlie pretty!!
(It's from Warehouse)

So you will probably see from previous posts that I like to change my iPhone case every few months. I get a bit bored and I like things that suit my mood.
This time I made another purchase on eBay and my present case is just divine! It's the cutest thing ever!
I fell for it whilst searching for a rabbit one (which I am still getting) and just loved how kitsch it was!
I paid less than a fiver and it arrived in a week.
So how is it for use? It's sadly a bit of a pain in the bum. Like your favourite shoes that you can't walk in. The prob is that the casing covers the buttons and while it is ok for volume etc, I can't for the life of me lock my phone anymore!!! It's too think and won't press down!
So alas this case experience is likely to be very short lived as I am constantly in and out of my bag for my phone and defo need to lock it.
Ah well. Still cute though!!

So recently I popped down to my (not so local) H&M in Manchester - primarily for a fur collar I had seen a couple of girlies sporting.
I got the fur collar, which incidentally I don't actually like on, and spotted this little beauty at the till point.
It was only £1.99 and given that my lips were near enough dropping off at this point I couldn't resist.
So I didn't.
This purchase I was a little more pleased with than the fur collar but one thing I would say is that it doesn't last very long.
It's a lovely smelling (mainly vanilla and not ginger) lip balm, which provides instant relief but does not really work to improve the overall condition of the lips. I find it very thin in consistency which can be a positive, but definitely too slidey.
That said, I do not regret this purchase being only £1.99 and would recommend it if you want something that gives you a light quick fix. This just doesn't really cut it for me in winter I'm afraid.
Anyone else tried these??
