PRETTY YOUNG THING

Ahh I'm so excited now for Christmas. I need two weeks off I think haha! I've literally bought one thing so far but i've got an idea of what i'm buying everyone so it's just a case of going out and getting it. I think i'm going to be doing alot of shopping online this year because the shops are already crazy and it's still November. BHS is one of my go to shops at Christmas because I love their gift range. They have so much choice for the ladies the smellies are always fab or a cheeky wine gift set and for the men they have loads of gadgets and toys ;) and the beer sets and there's an endless selection for the kids!

I love the fun and joy of Christmas i'm so excited this year because i've had a lot of changes in my life this year and everything's going to be really different. I'm planning on putting together a few wish lists and some Christmas gift guides on the blog. I'm feeling really festive this year, usually I don't get in the mood until mid December. I've got some time off soon and i'm going to London a couple of weeks before the big day which means I can do some really good shopping!!



I can't wait to head to my local BHS to check out this years Christmas gifts! What will you be buying your loved ones? Do you have any Christmas traditions ?

 So after subscribing for Octobers box I forgot to unsubscribe and was rather suprised when I was greeted with Novembers box. I will be staying subscribed for December's box and then I may have to unsub for the New Year.

I have to say i'm VERY please again with my Birchbox, this months included-

I was kindly sent this gorgeous phone case to review by Iconemesis.co.uk I was sent it awhile ago now maybe the beginning of october and it's been on my phone ever since. It's such a good quality phone case made from a really thick plastic. I'm one of those people who always always have a phone case of their phones just because i'm so clumsy and terrible at dropping my phone.

The pattern is so cute but classic, I really wanted a phone case that looks expensive and grown up and so this pattern is perfect. I chose the white and black because I have the white iphone and think it looks better.

The case has all the little holes so you can fit your earphones in and use your camera :)

It's £25 which is the same price of the phone cases in the apple shop and I think this ones such a better quality and you have so much choice when picking what pattern to have as they have some very lovely designs.

I will be buying another case from Iconemesis as this one's lasted me so long and I really love some of the designs they have online

Every blogger has heard about Caudalie Beauty Elixir it's one of those must have beauty products well say hello to the Limited Edition Beauty Elixir designed by L'wren Scott.
The scent is gorgeous a mix of Grape, Orange Blossom, Rose, Balm mint and Rosemary.
I really love the smell and how a spritz refreshes the skin and makes its feel so lovely and amazing.
The powerful plant based anti-dullness complexion mist smoothes away fine lines and tightens pores.
I think it just leaves the skin feeling good and gives a boost of radiance. I've used this before applying my make up and it made my skin feel really nice and smooth before applying my make up and i've also used it to refresh my make up, it makes the skin appear dewy and like you have freshly applied your make up.


The beauty elixir is the same formula but with a new look and is limited edition so buy it now - Buy the 100ml bottle and get free delivery if you order from uk.caudalie.com .

Just thought i'd pop up a little casual outfit post. I've been trying to keep on top of my blogging this week and have some posts scheduled which i'm very proud of. I've got so much uni work going on at the moment and i'm really struggling to balance everything but I don't want to prioritise everything ahead of my blog.

I've always been a massive fan of Lancome so I was actually so excited to try out this mascara. I've always used Benefit's they're real as I have got them free in magazines or I was given one at an event, as a mascara They're real is fab and I would buy it however now i've tried Lancome I think I would prefer to spend my money on Hypnose Doll Eyes. It's a really lovely formula and it makes my lashes appear really long. I use another mascara over the top to add abit of volume as I like my lashes to be really thick.  I find it comes off really easily without much effort unlike They're real that is very stubborn. I like the packaging of Lancome it's simplistic but classy. The silver box is really appealing and when you see it in the shop it looks special. I'm really impressed with Lancome's mascara and I would like to try some of their other mascara's. I think £21.00 is really reasonable for such a good quality product compared to similar brands that charge alot more for their mascaras.

I spotted this bag on La Moda's instagram and fell in loveeee! I think its such a lovely bag and I just had to have it. Its such a simplistic but classic bag. I'm loving the gold detail as well as I prefer gold details to Silver. The bag is a really good quality material. Its a really good size and has loads of pockets inside. It has like phone pockets and then bigger pockets with zips which are perfect for keeping your valuables in. I can fit an a4 pad into this bag without any difficultly. The bag also has a handy strap on it as well. I think this is such a great value for money for £22 it's such good quality.
