Christmas Haul 2013 | ♥

Christmas was just over a week ago now and as I said in my last blog post I had a really lovely Christmas. After my birthday I did plan to do a birthday haul on my blog but never got round to it but today I am going to show you what I got for Christmas!

Just as a disclaimer, I'm not bragging in anyway, at the same time I'm so utterly grateful for everything I got, but documenting it in a blog means 1) I won't forget what I received (as once all the craziness is over it often gets put away and you can easily forget things are new) and 2) if any of you are as nosey as me, you won't mind a peek ;-)

I was going to photograph everything individually and write about it all on here but I figured that would get extremely boring. So I made a video of my presents and I am just going to list them and write about my favourites :-)

Here is the video...


My main present this year was my Kindle. I love it already! As you can see in the video it has a floral case which was a Christmas present from my Auntie. I've downloaded some free books on my Kindle such as The Great Gatsby and Pride and Prejudice and I'm really enjoying reading it. I also got a little clip on light which is really helpful as it means I can read my Kindle in the dark in bed.

Gahhh, I kinda want to write about all my presents because I'm just so grateful!

Presents (in order of appearance in video)

  • Kindle case
  • Kindle
  • Eyeshadow set and Seventeen Eyeliner set
  • Benefit Let's Make Lovely, Seventeen Eyebrow Kit and Lipgloss set
  • Impulse Sprays, Foundation (bought with Christmas money) and Lush bath bomb
  • Soap and Glory gift set, Nail wraps, Purse with Nail kit and Nail varnishes 
  • Pamper basket
  • Burgundy jumper
  • Pyjamas, Underwear, Disco pants and a Dress
  • 'Hottie' teddies from Topshop
  • DVDS. The Great Gatsby, The Lucky One and Matilda
  • Thermal Mug and Coffee
  • Diary, pens and earphones
  • Floral Ring-binder, Pretty box and flower ornament
  • Photo frame and whirligig Photo holder
  • Morganville book, Penguin hand warmers, Mirror and Earrings
  • Candle holder, Hello Kitty purse, 50 dollars for America in October, iPod speaker, Topshop, New Look and Odeon vouchers. 
  • I also was lucky enough to go see Matilda in London in November so this was part of my Christmas present as well as a ticket to go and see Rizzle Kicks in February. 
  • Two Pandora charms which I forgot to put in the video...

The stocking was from my boyfriend and the stars from my best friend

I wasn't going to go ahead and list all my presents but I am so grateful I didn't feel comfortable just naming a few. As you can tell I am so grateful for all my gifts. I know this was a bit of an unusual blog post as it kind of included a video, but nevertheless I hope you enjoyed. If you want me to review any of the products or just anything in general I was given feel free to comment and let me know. x

2014 | ♥

Wow. Where did the time go? 

It's hard to believe that a whole year has flew by and I'm happy to say 2013 has been good to me.

2013 brought me the bestest group of friends in the world. Ellie, Emily, Jordan and Billy and I know I am so lucky to have them. It brought it my first experience of exams and receiving some of my GCSE grades. I went on holiday to Menorca and on a boating holiday on the Norfolk Broads with Emily. I managed to get myself a job as well as welcome two new family members: a little puppy, Naiya and a tortoise, Matilda. I celebrated my 16th birthday with my amazing family and friends and got into a new, very happy, relationship at the beginning of December. I had a perfect Christmas, it was really lovely. Especially towards the end of 2013 I became so much happier, content with myself and satisfied with everything in my life. The school break was helpful and gave me some time to chill myself out. 2013 has been good to me, and I know 2014 will be even better.




Happy new year everyone!
I'm well and truly looking forward to whatever this year will bring :-)
