7 Christmas Party Dresses! - Under £25

♥

So, its very near to Party season and you're probably all looking for the perfect dress, but at a cost that won't break the bank and interrupt your Christmas shopping! ..unless you're as organised than me and you've done your Christmas shopping and you actually have money to spare for a Christmas dress! I wont be needing a Christmas party dress, as I wont be going anywhere, so I get the joy of staying in and compiling a list of pretty dresses that could all help you lovely lot in your search. This edition is UNDER £25. Sometimes its hard to find a really nice, special dress for an occasion under that, unless its in the sale..but I managed to find 7 dresses that I would wear and that have been following a certain trend this month or season. As you can tell, there has been a certain trend with 'lace' looking dresses this season/month. I really like them, so if you have the same style and fashion sense as me, you might like them too! So without further ado, here goes!

Camilla Scoop Lace Dress | £7.99| Prodigyred.com 

I really like this! I'm deciding whether to get it for myself! These dresses have been such a trend recently, its very Adele like?! Its such a simple dress, perfect with black heels and a clutch or a Chanel quilted bag dupe. The price is perfect too, JUST £7.99.. you really can't go wrong. Even if you just wear it for your Christmas party and never wear it again, you know that you haven't had to go out and spend a huge price. Also, you can purchase it in the comfort of your own home!

Cameo Rose Black Lace Dip Hem Dress | £20 | New Look

I really like this too! I like this just as much as the one above, but ofcourse they're slightly different. I really like the sweetheart neckline on this dress, I'm never really a huge fan but this is something I'd actually wear. I love the way its 'dip hemmed' this has been really on trend recently, especially in the Summer, but ofcourse this post is for Christmas so the lace design adds that hint of Christmas/winter trend! Its a perfect dress, just make sure you're somewhere warm!

Jasmin One Shoulder Studded Dress | £9.99 |Prodigyred.com

Is it me or is this website perfect?! I came across it agessss ago, but its typical.. you always add things to the cart and never buy them! This dress is one of the things I've been eyeing up, its sososo lovely! I love studded clothes recently too, I never really used to but like the other two items.. this has been really on trend! This dress also comes in black but I think the nude color is really nice to team with sparkly heels, or something. I like the studded design, its mostly all over the dress but not in an OTT way, if that makes sense.. really pretty & great for the price! (I'm also a lover of the one shoulder too!)

Krisp Basic 3/4 Length Sleeve Belted Skater Dress | £15.00 | Krisp.com

This is such a lovely dress! The color shows Christmas without an explanation! Ruby red is great for Christmas, maybe team it with Nude/Shimmery heels?! I'm a big lover of skater dresses, I think they suit anyone, all shapes all sizes? I also like the neckline on this one! 

Ellaa Sequin Bow Bandeau Dress | £20.00| Prodigyred.com

This is so pretty! It sums me up! I love the sequins, its really Christmassy! It's so 'prom' like and I love how its loose and floaty, most dresses on my list are 'Bandeau' and tight, this is Bandeau and loose. It also has a sweetheart neckline which is gorgeous, its flattering because of the sequins. I also love the shape of the dress, I think the center bow is quite flattering too!

Corinne Jersey Peplum Dress | £12.99| Prodigyred.com

This isnt my most favorite dress on the list, but I do like it. These dresses arnt meant just for me anyway haha! I do like the color, very christmassy! I also love peplum's, just this one isnt my favorite! Peplum's are also meant to be slimming so I think that's essential for a Christmas party, you want to look your best!

Chi Chi Black Lace Peplum | £25 | New Look

This dress is so nice!! I love this peplum a lot more than the other one.. its floral too haha! I also think I saw Lauren Goodger *TOWIE* in this, in the paper the other week.. Zofia needs it! ;-) 

So yeah.. that's my pick of Christmas Party dresses! I hope you liked, I'm trying to keep up with my actual blog posts as well as Blogmas, because I haven't been doing that recently! I feel like I haven't blogged properly in ages haha! 

What are you wearing for Christmas?

Blogmas | Day 12

Hey lovelies♥

Zzzzz..I'm tired at 10pm again! I love having a normal sleep pattern but woah, its horrible when all you look forward to is getting up at 7am and going to sleep at 10.. I get sleepy around 7pm, I cant handle it haha! Today's been another zzz day. Mum went to work, so did Dad and I just stayed in. I recorded 2 Youtube videos and one needed to go up today..oopsie! I also received my Elemis giveaway goodies in the post, cant wait to show you them all & use them! They look so good, what do you all think of Elemis? 

I also had Chinese for tea, I love making my own, tastes much more nicer than the chinese shop.. I also hope you all liked my #WhatIAteWednesday post.. my first one! I want to do a mix of fashion, beauty, food on here instead of just beauty, I deleted my food blog just because I want everything on here, for everyone of you to see. I hope you like my cooking posts, I cook a lot and I love doing it so I think its nice if you all share my love of cooking with me; especially if you like cooking yourself, we can share recipes! 

Also, today was 12/12/12, who saw it?! I waited for the clock to turn 12 everything, and I got a picture! I'm such a geek at this stuff, I love capturing pictures of everything! I love keeping memories so I was so happy I got the picture. Knowing my luck, I thought I would end up getting the picture at like 12:12:13.. but I didnt! 

I cant believe that the next triple figures like 1/1/1 is in around 78 years time.. I'll be dead then.. unless I'm super healthy aha! It was only the other day I was saying to Mum that my children/grandchildren will see the year 3000, and I might, just about! Its so weird, time flies by. I also looked at the calender earlier '1 week and 6 days till Christmas' WHAAAT?! The time has gone super speedy and I just cant believe I've had no time to get myself properly Christmassy.. I'm sure I will be soon.. I hope:-(

Anyway, I'll sh rambling now! I had a lot to say today haha. I'll see you all at Blogmas Day 13 and the odd beauty post tomorrow..

Night night!

#WhatIAteWednesday

Cinnamon and Mixed Fruit Muffins♥

Such a simple recipe, a great recipe to bake for Christmas or just a little treat for yourself! Cinnamon and Mixed Fruit is the perfect taste for Christmas, so I hope you enjoy!

What You Need | Ingredients 

2 cups - Self Raising Flour

Tablespoon - Cinnamon

3/4 cup - Dark Brown Sugar

1 egg

Mixed Fruit (add as much as you would like)

3/4 cup - Milk

1/2 cup - Vegetable Oil

2 teaspoons - Sugar

How To Do | Method

Turn the oven on to 200c, grease a muffin tray. I used silicone muffin cases, all you have to do is wash them up after! They also make the best shaped muffins!

Sieve flour & sugar into a mixing bowl, make sure the mixing bowl is quite large.

Break the egg into a small bowl and beat until it's one color. Add the beaten egg, fruit, milk & oil to the flour mixture and stir until mixed together.. do not overmix!

Spoon the mixture into your muffin cases or muffin tray. Bake the muffins for 25 minutes. When you take them out of the oven, you can sift icing sugar over the top, or you could make cinnamon sugar.

Blogmas | Day 11.

Hey lovelies♥

Zzzz... such a tiring day! Been busy - I did something! ..Well, a lot actually! I got up expecting the day to be boring, but then Mum woke up and got ready and decided to go to Town and use my Body Shop Joy Card from Glamour magazine. I'm going to do a post on that tomorrow saying what I got etc, but today I'll just tell you what I did! I had £3 on mine, to be honest, I think everyone does.. I really and truthfully cant see them giving £100 away, free.. I was happy with my freebies though! Then we had a look around Primark, I've seen so many things I want, do Primark do a New Years Sale?! So many lovely things. I also took Mum to Lush and hinted at all the things I want;-) 

Today was so foggy & misty, I'm still waiting for snow! It was hard to see where I was going haha! When we got home, Dad came back and we walked the dog, I was freeeezing by this point, it got much colder at about 5/6! Then, me&Dad made some delish muffins! Mixed fruit & Cinnamon! A bit Christmassy? We were meant to make Mince Pies but we didn't have Plain Flour so we decided on the muffins! But as its What I Ate Wednesday tomorrow, I will be posting the recipe! *exclusive*. 

Now, its about 10:00pm and I'm soooooo tired! I really cant wait to get into bed and snooze! I've been awake since 5 - just because I fell asleep at 12 last night, and now I'll be asleep by 11/12 and be awake at the same time again.. I love a normal sleep pattern but getting up THAT early makes me so sleepy!!

(this was meant to be posted last night.. I fell asleep while writing the last line hahaha! sorry!) 

Has it been foggy where you are?!

Whos had snow?!:-(

Blogmas | Day 10

Hey Lovelies♥

Day 10 already! 14 days to go and Zofia isn't Christmassy.. maybe I should just give up trying now haha! I also cant seem to keep warm at home, I dont know why but we have the heating on for ages and I'm still shivering. All day its been looking like its going to snow, the sky's been so white! Today's been the typical Monday.. boring. I haven't dont anything yet again. There's never anything to do anyway! I caught up with Blogging today and planned a few posts, I also received Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in the post so I just scheduled a post on that. I also noted down some ingredients needed for my Christmas Cooking, I dont know when to start baking all my goodies, I might start this week. Then, I can snap a few pics haha! Tomorrow - Mince Pie baking! Sorry this has been a boring Blogmas, now you all understand why I deleted my vlog channel! 

What did you do today?

My Skincare Routine

Hey Lovelies♥

My new video is up now; you can watch it HERE if you would like. Just a quick video that I filmed a while ago, that I thought you would enjoy. My Blogmas post for today will be uploaded around 8:00 so check back then if you would like to read that! 

I didnt know whether to do a post on my Skincare Routine, but I will another day if you all want, if not, I wont do one. Sorry that today's beauty post was a bit boring, but I just thought you could all pop along on to YouTube and watch the video instead! I still need to post up a schedual of upcoming posts for you, so you all know what to look out for. 

Lots of love,

♥ 

Blogmas | Day 8

Hey lovelies♥

Had a good day today! First time I've started a blog post with this, I'm normally bored, suffering a day in.. not today!

I went to Stamford, which is about 10/15 minutes away on the train, they had a Christmas market type thing on, with homemade items and food, and things to try. Its a good day out, especially if you love Christmas - I do! I bought some things, I bought a bath bomb.. which I will upload a picture tomorrow and add it to this post, so remember to check back to see it! 

It was such a good day and it was just me&dad who went which was really nice. It was also an excuse to wear my new boots! It wasn't that cold today either which wasn't really a big deal because I love the cold weather! 

I was sooo tired today though, that was the only problem, I didn't sleep at all last night and so as soon as this gets posted - I'm going to bed! I'm so sorry that its posted past midnight again, I really need to learn to post before midnight! I also need to update my blog a little, I have loads of posts that need scheduling and I need to create a schedule for my blog so you all know future posts. 

Sorry today's post is a bit small, I'm tired and I don't really know what to update you all on!

Hope you've had a lovely day,

have you been to any Christmas markets recently?

Blogmas | Day 6 & 7

Hey Lovelies♥

Oh dear! I forgot to 'Blogmas' yesterday! Well, I didn't.. but I was SO busy! Busiest day of this week and I only had 3 hours sleep on Thursday so I was sleepy through the day, but when it got to bedtime I was wide awake! I'll start with Fridays events then explain about today..bad news.

So yesterday, after three hours sleep, I popped into Town and went to the new Primark. I finally bought some boots as its sooooo cold and my poor feet are purple when I actually step outside of the house, it was an essential! I'm going to post a picture up of them soon, I need to sort out my blog posts for the next few weeks anyway, but I've been lazy recently! But yeah, the boots are a tan shade with a buckle, just under the knee and they're perfect! Seems a bit strange wearing them too, I'm used to my ballet pumps! After that I popped home and sorted out my room, it was a must; seeing as I've asked for a LOT of presents *especially because its my birthday on the 26th* and I never have any space/storage at the best of times, so if anyone could recommend me any makeup storage under £10, I'd appreciate it because I've looked everywhere! That took me till around 3pm, then I made some pasta and watched Made In Chelsea *obsessed!*. Then around 5.30 I went and did my Friday Tesco Shop with Dad! I got some tasty goodies including pink&blue bottle sweets which are my ultimate FAVE but never see them anywhere! After that, I had my usual Friday night watching Alan Carr and eating junk! ..well, that's everyday, but sh;-) 

Then today had to be the biggest waste of a day ever.. I woke up late because noone woke me up and I couldn't make it to the clothes show.. total letdown, mega upset! I got myself so excited to meet all the TOWIE people but oh well, Mum promised me that we'd go next year so I cant wait, I hope next year is just as good though! Then I slept most of the day, purely because I was in a bad mood.. not the best idea now I wont be tired tonight, purely why I'm blogging at 1am! 

Tomorrow I do have plans and I hope they actually work out.. they're not that exciting as the Clothes Show, but its something I've looked forward to for months and something I enjoy every year. I also need to plan future posts too, as I'm quite behind on the whole beauty blogging, and seems to be as if my blog is now 'Blogmas' and not beauty! I also have  a YouTube video up tomorrow too! Which will be a link in tomorrow Blogmas.

I hope you all had a better day than I did,

Ill let you all pop off to dreamland now!

Nightnight

Any New Year Resolutions, Zofia?

-photo is courtesy of weheartit.com. Although I personally edited it, I can remove it if it belongs to you-

It's that time of year again where everyone says they'll change and they won't. I know that sounds slightly harsh but it's true! People always tweet or Facebook 'new year, new me' ..never works! I must admit I'm a little bit of a sucker for saying I'll do something and I don't; although I have never said that I'll change myself or my personality in the next year. 

I thought it would be a good idea if I do a blog post telling you all things I want to improve in 2013 and things that could improve the year. They're not big things at all, just things that have occurred this year that I haven't really liked.

Not to rely on others -

This isn't the case of getting everyone to do things for me, it's the case of learning to do things that I want to do without getting people to come with me or to get a yes or no off people before I do things. Sounds crazy but it's a little hard to explain!

Not to be too trustworthy - I trust people really easily and I think it's my downfall. I always think everything will end up perfectly but really if I trust people, I only get letdown at the end of it.. I need to learn not to trust people so much like I did before. Back in 2011 I think my trust issues really started and then in 2012 I started to rely and trust my parents a little too much but I think at times they're very much letdowns! *not to be too harsh*

Do things that make me happy -

This one is a lot like the above two, I always expect to do things with Mum&Dad and always rely on them to go somewhere and do something - then I get letdown. So maybe in the new year I might start to get myself up and out and just go for a walk or just go to town and have a browse.. just get some freshair.. do what makes me happy even if it might not be the best option or the best choice.. we learn from our mistakes!

Grow my nails - 

This is a silly one! We all know Zofia will never have long talons.. could always try! 

Get out a bit more - 

As you all noticed via my Blogmas.. I'm always in. Everyday you should live like your last and I think I'm not really doing that.. I'm not expecting a tour of Europe or anything extravagrant.. I just want to do more things and get more fresh air instead of staying in 24/7. I cant wait for Summer!

To get a bigger MAC/ Yankee Candle/ OPI / Makeup Collection

..Bit of a selfish one! I just thought this could be a small resolution that I would collect more makeup.. Pretty good idea.. and easy! Atleast i'll pass one resolution!;-)

I really hope you enjoyed this post! Maybe it gave you some ideas on what you need or want to improve on and gave you an insight of what I'll be doing in 2013. It's the 8th of January already and I think it's going so fast!

Hope you're having a good weekend!

Blogmas | Day 5 & 6

Hey Lovelies♥ 

So I'm sorry that I haven't posted 'Blogmas day 5' yesterday, I just didnt do anything and thought that it would be a little pointless maybe..
I have a busy 3 days coming up, so you WILL get a good Blogmas! ..with photos!

Ill inform you of yesterdays-goings-ons first..its a good one!

About 5 days ago, I entered a giveaway on this blog and I didn't even think I would win. I dont really win things, especially Youtube/blog giveaway's! Last night I checked my email and I had won tickets to the NEC Birmingham CLOTHES SHOW! I'm really excited and cant wait to go on Saturday. I know quite a few celebrities will be there and I cant wait to see all the pretty fashions! I'm hoping to pick up a few before-Christmas cosmetic goodies too, I've heard things might be cheaper? So, I hope thats the case because you know me.. I love the bargains! I also think I may have won Elemis items too? Thats what the giveaway said and thats who emailed me, unless its just tickets! I really am so happy though, I never win anything and to go to something as good as this is just amazing. I've never been to the clothes show and I cant wait to take lots of photos and show you all, que Saturdays blog post!
So that was a great thing to see come into my email's, never smiled so much haha.

Then as for today, I've done my usual boring routine. I always seem to stay in my onesie nowadays, but this is going to stop! I'll be getting ready and doing things tomorrow so thats the day the lazy days stop haha! I hate staying in, like I've recently said.. its just boring!
Although, I did walk the dog and it was freeeeezing! I cant ACTUALLY believe its that cold.. my ears were burning! 

So yeah, thats just about it for today I'm afraid! Tomorrows Blogmas will be better because I have plans!
I'm busy tomorrow, Saturday & Sunday and a little bit next week. I also start baking the Chrstmas goodies next week so I can start my baking  posts on here now, instead of doing them on my other blog which has now been deleted.. this blog is my baby and I do not have time to keep the other one to the same standard seeing as I have put SO much effort into this one.. even though im never happy with it lol!

I'll stop rambling now and let you all go to bed!

Are you going to the Clothes show this year?

Have you ever been?

Christmas Gift Guide!

 Essie Winter Collection |  OPI Skyfall Collection | New Look Cake Stand | Lush Snow Fairy | Lady gaga; Fame | Naked Palette

Hey lovelies♥

So its that time of the year again! Hot water bottles, rain, snow, frost, ice, Christmas movies, Elf, Presents, Busy streets.. the list is endless but thats what makes Christmas so special! We all complain about doing 'the Christmas shop' but really, on the 25th when we see our loved ones open their presents and receive something that they've been wanting all year or have seen many adverts about, we all do cartwheels and jump for joy inside, because it makes the day special by giving, not just receiving. 
The only problem we all sometimes make.. giving someone something that they don't want, or do not have an interest in.. Obviously because this is a Beauty/Food/Lifestyle blog these are beauty gifts, so before these inspire you to go out and spend,spend,spend, make sure that the person receiving these actually has an interest in the products listed! 
Later this month I will be doing 'Christmas week' full of Christmassy things, just like I did with Halloween week. I decided to do this early, just because people are shopping quite early this year and I just thought this would be a better time to do it, than a week before Christmas.
So, without further ado, I will sh and get on with it!

Essie Winter Collection | £9.95 | ASOS
I spotted this and thought it was a great gift! Slightly under £10.. just! Which makes it a great gift for a friend or for a stocking filler. It's also a great gift for people that are unsure of what they want or if you're unsure of what shades and brands they like. Personally, I have never tried Essie but, I am trying some soon for Christmas! I didnt put this on my Christmas list *why* but I will do now! I think its just perfect for the people I listed above and think its great for this season; as its Winter!

OPI Skyfall Mini's Collection | £13 | John Lewis
I put OPI on my Christmas list, not these mini's collection but just one of the Skyfall's. I'll be doing a haul & review so dont worry!
I have never tried OPI, I dont think they're sooo overpriced, I just havent managed to purchase one yet. But, I think this is a great gift for the same reasons listed on the gift above. I think the product is great for beauty hoarders and people exactly like myself! It's also a great gift to have, being a collection, and something that is fairly new. The shades are also wintery too! Perfect for Christmas!

Cake Stand | £9.99 | New Look 
This is a slightly different present maybe? I have actually asked for this, both as a cake stand for all my pretty decorated after-Christmas cupcakes AND for my makeup storage! Its multi-use and very girly. I'm planning on storing my eyeshadows on this, as all of them are all over my makeup desk untidy. This is an excellent stocking filler for any age, even if you cant find something for Mum and she loves baking, or if you have a neice who bakes or a Sister that keeps makeup in the same way! Its multi-purpose and a pretty thing to have around the house! 

Snow Fairy | £3.50 | Lush
Perfect stocking filler! For my 'stocking fillers' I have these wrapped up and put under the Christmas tree, I call them my 'small presents' and I normally get two big presents to open too. I HAVE put this on my list this year, I've never tried it before so I cant comment on the scent but everyone writes great reviews about it, so I'm basing my decision on them! Obviously making sure the female you're buying it for uses bath things and shower gels etc, because if not, it wont be put to good use! It's great for the price and really adds a lovely touch and something nice to open. Its also from the Lush Christmas range and only comes out once a year, so get it while you can!

Lady Gaga; Fame | £49 | Lord & Taylor.com
This is another one that I havent tried but all reviews are good. Obviously check the reviews before buying but really and truthfully; I dont think you need to! It's a celebrity scent which some people are fussy about *personally, I LOVE celeb scents!* and I cant really see why, but people say this isnt like 'A celeb scent' its like a designer scent. The whole 'black perfume' really put me off at first but now I cant wait to try it, although its not on my Christmas list for this year!

Urban Decay; Naked Palette | £36 | Debenhams
Perfect reviews, shades for everyone, Urban Decay. Thats all I need to say! I don't have this palette and was debating whether to spend a whole £36 on it, I do want it but I don't really know whether to actually buy it. We all know its a good palette but I might just get the Undressed palette by MUA first.
This is a perfect gift because all the shades suit everyone. Nudes & Brows are versatile and suitable for any skin or hair color, its all about how strong or light the color is blended/ lip color. The naked palette is perfect for any teens or any adults in the family, just because its something anyone who loves makeup would be happy with opening. 

I really hope you enjoyed having a read of my gift guide, I might do 'Gift Guide 2' in a few days time, but I just thought I would do this one as I was having a bit of a scan about on the internet and thought it would be a great idea. I know I havent tried most of them, but I know a good gift when I see one! ;-)
My Blogmas Day 6 will be up in a minute too!

What do you all want for Christmas?

Are any on the list?

♥

Blogmas | Day 4

Hey lovelies♥

So, another boring day! Like I said yesterday, I WILL be doing things soon, weekdays are always boring for me! I'm meant to be doing my schoolwork really and truthfully but I kinda 'forget' to do it so I just lounge about which is such a bad thing! I'm going to get back into the routine of walking the dog during the day or something tomorrow, just because I hate wasting all my days and outside is so pretty right now, I love Winter; even if it doesnt snow! But I feel like I'm not catching any of the scenery because I'm just staying in! So I might capture some of the wintery scenery at the park tomorrow and show you all, I'm definitely going to do something!

Today, I felt quite weird and ill, I started to feel okay about 6/7:00 which resulted in me playing the Sims 2 all afternoon aha! 

So yeah.. thats my day.. boring!

What did you all do today?

Hope you all had a good day!

Night-night xo

Blogmas | Day 3

Hey Lovelies♥

December..3..already?! I can see Christmas being here before we can even say Christmas! Once everyone has prepared everything, its midnight on Christmas Eve!
I think because we all count down via an Advent Calandar or Advent Candle, it does so fast, or its just me who thinks that!
I havent really done much today, I just sat around freeeeezing cold at home. I watched last nights TOWIE too, in preparation for the live one tonight, 'totes excited' haha!

I also scheduled all my Christmas viewing today too, so many Christmassy editions of programmes come out at the start of December, personally, I love it!

So yeah, I've done nothing today, this is the reason why I DO NOT do daily vlogs haha, I live such a boring life! Im still going to carry on with my Blogmas diaries though, I'll be doing a lot more soon, I just dont do things everyday which is such a shame, I love being busy!

Oh and while I remember! Today, I attempted to put the Christmas lights up in the window but dad failed so I dont think thats going to happen this year!

Hope you've all had a good day, what have you all been up to?

..are you going to be watching TOWIE live?!

♥

Blogmas | Day 2!

Hey lovelies♥

So Ive decided to do 'Blogmas'.. I had this idea about an hour ago when I saw it on someones blog! I wont be doing Vlogmas on my Vlog YouTube unfortunately, due to the fact of 0 confidence of carrying a camera about and chatting to it everyday! Although I'll try and add the cheeky christmas video in when I can, but atleast with 'Blogmas' I can update you with December posts all the month!
I dont know when to do it to, until the last day in December or until Christmas Eve? ...I'm thinking up till the last day in December, yeah?!
Yesterday I missed a post because I didnt have the idea of doing 'Blogmas' until today, but I'll keep you updated with yesterdays events now!

So as yesterday was December 1st, I decided to make some cute decorations for the tree, I got a bit overly excited with the glitter and sticky bits but hey, my childish side was coming out!
I love Christmas but I just havent been 'Christmassy' this year.. I'm quite Christmassy now as I've put the Tree up but its on and off, I suppose its just because I dont think I'm getting a 'big present' this year, like a main present.. I'm just getting small bits and pieces, but I do think I'm getting and iPad for my birthday, so thats a bonus!

Today, for the actual Blogmas post; I put the tree up! I think December 1st (I was meant to do it yesterday, but did it today) is the best time to do it. It looks really pretty and kinda got me into the christmas spirit! We put Christmas chocolates on the tree and some candy canes, I had one.. couldnt resist! The gold, red, silver and purple baubles added a glittery touch, which looks so pretty on the tree. We added some glittery icicles too, which hang down from the tree. We also popped a glittery star on the top - just for tradition! I cant wait to pull the crackers on Christmas Day too!

Have you all put your trees up already, or when are you doing them?! You can send me links to pictures if you would like, I'd love to see them all, I'll insert a picture of mine at the end of this post, I tried getting a good one!

I'll start doing this everyday now, I know they wont be 100% beauty posts, but I think that updating you all is a good thing, especially because I dont always tweet off my blog/youtube twitter and I dont think any of you follow my Instagram, so I think this is a good idea and I hope you all enjoy the posts!

Hope you've all had a good day and I'll speak to you all tomorrow!

Night-Night xo

My Bad Beauty Habits!

-photo is courtesy of weheartit.com although I personally edited the photo I will take it down if it belongs to you-

Hey lovelies♥

So we all have habits that we do in our everyday life, and I saw this tag on someone else's Youtube and thought it would be a great idea to do a post and video on it!
I have a few habits that I never noticed before, but when I sat down and thought ' I need to write a list on mine, what habits do I have?!' I actually came up with quite a few that you dont normally realise 'oops, I done it again!' when you actually do it.
So I'll list them below and as always, please comment below your habits, I'd love to read them! Or, if you want to do a video or have done a video, please leave me a video response! I'd love to know.

♥ Biting my nails;

I do this all the time! At random moments of the day ill just be sitting there biting my nails! Even worse.. the skin around my nails! I wish I had pretty, long nails or perfect skin around the nails, but its such a bad habit! Even if I bought some of the bad tasting stuff to avoid me biting them, it really wouldnt work! 

♥ Not cleaning my brushes regular!

Oops! I dont mind this ahhh:( Its such a bad habit but when theyre freshly washed, I dont think they work as well as they do when they're a week old?! Its strange but really bad! I love when they're soft though! I normally wash them every 2/3 weeks which is awful!

♥ Sunbathing with no cream!

I dont think this is that bad because I have olive skin and I dont ACTUALLY burn! But this year, I burnt quite bad by sitting in the sun for ages and my back was so sore! Next year I will definately apply some suncream because this year, I spotted some wrinkles! Oops!

♥ Touching My face;

I do it without noticing! I sit there touching my face every now and then, so bad! Then I wonder why I have spots? This blends in with the next one..

♥ Picking spots;

I dont pop them, ew no! But if its quite hard I will just pick the top off and its a really bad habit. I always get them round my mouth and its so frustrating! When I can actually go out with a spot, im not petty!

♥ Wearing makeup while asleep;

This is the biggest one! If I stay up all night (also a bad one!) I'll just leave it on. Or, if I do go to sleep ill just leave it on for my eyemakeup to rub everywhere and for my foundation to go all oily into my skin.. so so so dirty! Then I moan when I have spots?!

♥ Using out of date makeup;

If I have some pretty colored palettes, I'll keep them for further use. I dont realise that they're actually out of date and dont act the same as they did when I first bought them. This isnt such a bad one, I dont have much out of date makeup! (only a few palettes!)

So I hope you all enjoyed this tag, I like doing them as you get to know me a little bit more and its just a simple but good post to do! It also keeps me entertained haha!
