It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

Hello my lovely followers.
I do apologise for the lack of posts recently but around Christmas time as I'm sure you all know life gets a bit hectic! It also doesn't help that I've had a terrible cold and was sent home from work the other day so have been feeling a bit crappy :( I did however find some Hello Kitty tissues which made it a bit more bearable :)

On a brighter note most of my Christmas shopping is now done *YAY* I've been so unorganised this year because I have been so stuck on what to buy everyone. My friend and I took a trip over to West Quay in Southampton on Saturday as the choice of shops on this island is few and far between. Luckily it wasn't horrendously busy like I was expecting, still busier than usual but tolerable. Now the problem I have when Christmas shopping is resisting to buy lots of things for myself and its so typical that when you're looking you don't find anything and when your not you see everything you could ever want! Well I have to say I was very impressed with my self control, which is usually non-existent when it comes to shopping, as I only bought a pair of jeans from Miss Selfridge's and a lovely little green dress from Topshop. The rest of my shopping I am pleased to say consisted of Christmas presents, which I sat and lovingly wrapped yesterday (I'm terrible at wrapping).

So I am going to leave you with my top 10 favourite things about Christmas time:

1. All the pretty lights on the houses (makes driving more interesting).
2. The way the house smells.
3. Everyone's good spirits. 
4. Wearing hats, scarf's and gloves. 
5. Eating lots of chocolate.
6. Spending time with family. 
7. Christmas songs, 'ITS CHRISTMASSSSS!'
8. Snow (if it does *fingers crossed*).
9. Films on the TV.
10. Exchanging presents.

If I don't post before I hope you all have a great Christmas :) 

Instagram Photos

 So in this post I thought I would share with you a few of my Instagram photos from the last few months.

 1. This was my gorgeous boyfriend and myself all ready for a lovely meal out with some friends for my 23rd birthday. I decided to do something a bit low key this year as I was a bit depressed about how old I was getting we did however enjoy a lovely meal at a lovely restaurant called The Reef.

2. This was taken during out short break to Paris, I don't think I shared this in my Paris post but I think it's a great shot of the Eiffel Tower! We had such a fantastic time.

3. Ahh the skeleton top, this was a purchase of mine from Missguided, surprisingly enough NOT for Halloween although I am a bit sceptical about wearing it because I do feel as though I should be going to a Halloween party, but its quite quirky. It may also look like I am only wearing the top but I also have shorts and long knee high socks on, just in case you thought I was half naked!! :/

4. This photo was actually taken this weekend, it was a girls night out as my friend Katie was visiting from London. If you have time check out her band Monroe she is a brilliant singer and I can assure you big things will happen so keep your eyes peeled. I also really like my outfit in this picture I am wearing a Topshop cropped mesh top with a  blue waterfall skirt and some studded wedged heels which unfortunately you can't see!

 5. This is when I purchased my onesie it is from Boohoo and is incredibly warm and fluffy, perfect for those cold winter nights!

6. This photo was taken from Brooke beach my boyfriend and I drove out there to watch the sunset as it was a rather nice evening.

7. Nothing fun behind this photo, I was actually supposed to be doing uni work but I was incredibly bored... procrastination at its best!

8. I bought the BarryM magnetic nail polish not that long ago, I think its amazing so easy and simple to use and it creates a great effect.

9. Finally this is just a picture of me and My boyfriend messing around with his new galaxy S3 mini... testing out the quality of the camera ;)

I hope you enjoy looking at these, I think I will try and do an Instagram post at least once a month so I can show you guys what I have been up to!
