Hello my honeybears!
Sorry for the massive absence. Ongoing health problems. I won't bore you with the details until I've been fully diagnosed.
Anyway! As you can tell from my title, this is about Christmas!
I LOVE CHRISTMAS! The trees, carols, lights, decorations, food. Everything just has that added sheen to it. Christmas markets are also fantastic, there is always something amazing lurching at a Christmas (or any) market.
I decided that I'd let you into my world. I don't ask for that much but what I do ask for is expensive. All of my dream items are on my Pinterest page.
I am a lover of good shoes, I am female after all. I have a place in my heart for Jeffrey Campbell's. They are thee most amazing collection of shoes ever. The shoe boots are a special favourite of mine because the colours are so scrummy, I'd make them the centre piece to any outfit.
I'm also a bit of a make up hoarder so expensive make up like MAC and Urban Decay are dream items for me especially Urban Decay's Naked palettes which can make your eyes pop! I see so many good things about MAC lipsticks, I want them all but I especially want a nude one as my eyes are always my stand out but being a student, the only way I would get them is if they were a gift. Hint, hint.
Being a geek, I love Lord of the Rings, Star Wars and Game of Thrones so trawling through Black Milk and Etsy has probably been the worst thing to do. I adore Black Milk's Lord of the Rings leggings because they're so quirky and the greens/blues used as so lovely, they can easily be teamed with a white, grey, black etc top.
I have lusted over Black Milk's R2D2 body suit for months! My boyfriend refuses to buy it for me as it's 'too expensive' but seriously! How could it not be worth the price?! It's an R2D2 body suit for Christ sake! It's perfect for making an impression on people, like people aren't gonna smile when they see it.
As for the Game of Thrones merch, Etsy is perfect for finding just what you need. I love the Stark children's names top and the book extract pendant. I find stuff like that really expresses a person. I'm a natural reader so I'm obviously attracted to it.
As for the satchels, UGGs and guinea pigs; they're essentially duh!
I managed to put a hole through the bottom of my rubber soled UGG boots and, living in the North East, I need to keep my feet nice and dry when there's 2 feet of snow. UGGs are probably the best for keeping you toasty, dry and stylish.
I recently broke my satchel on my way to work (oops) so I need a new one. I like satchels as they're so cute and not boxy or too much. They're just perfect for making a statement but also being underrated.
And for guinea pigs. Have you heard them talk to eachother?! You can't escape the cuteness of guinea pigs. I am actually getting two for Christmas. You'd think I was 12, right? I'm nearly 20. I love them though, they are so sociable and they love the attention. They're so loving, I honestly can't even tell you how much I love them without making it into a big Disney song and dance.
Let me know your Christmas wishes.
And if you're in the North East. Erm, hello! Fenwicks Christmas window display will be up soon! AHHH!
Toodles!

Triple Dry Review
Yello my honeybears!
So, this is a slightly gross way to start off a post but it happens to everyone. I am one of these unlucky people, like many teenagers, who sweats a lot. No matter what I try, it doesn't work for more than an hour or so and then *poof* it stops and I end up a horrid sweaty mess.
Lets face it, being a minging, smelly, sweaty mess isn't sexy at all.
When I was told about Triple Dry Anti-Perspirant, I was a touch sceptical. 'How could this anti-perspirant, that you only apply 3 times a week, keep you from being sweaty?' I asked myself but I did as I was told and dutifully applied it each night, after a shower, for 4 nights.
I'm allergic to most of the other strong anti-perspirants so I was pretty sure I'd be scratching myself red raw to get it off but no, not at all. It isn't as fast drying as it claims to be but it doesn't take for ever either so it's pretty accurate.
This anti-perspirant is for heavy perspiration and is apparently affective for up to 72 hours. Seeing as I do suffer from heavy perspiration, I'm unsure how it would work on people who don't sweat like a pig in a sauna on a regular basis. I think it might make your underarms extremely dry but don't take my word for it.
I got this little beauty from Sainsbury's for £6.99. Strangely, the one I bought which is in the fragrance 'Fresh' is 99p more expensive than the one with no fragrance. Bit of a rip off if you ask me, there's barely even a smell there.
Anyway! I would highly recommend this to people who, like moi, suffer from heavy perspiration. Top marks Triple Dry, you did good. I'm off to mess around on Pinterest. Follow my boards if you like, the link is in my Pinterest post. If you enjoyed the ramblings of a crazy lady then give my blog a little follow.
Toodles!

P.S. Look how happy the duckie is! I love it :)

PINTEREST!
Hello my honeybears!
Pinterest is one of those sites that you probably see around on the side of your Facebook newsfeed and you just go 'meh, not fussed by this'. If you are one of these people, seriously, think again!
It took me a long time to get into it but now I LOVE IT! I have mainly fashion/beauty boards but I also have a wedding board. Every girl can dream about their perfect wedding, can't they?
I love planning out life on my boards or finding new makeup/hair ideas to try out.
It is a great place if you've got a special occasion coming up and you're lost for ideas for anything then this is honestly the best place you could visit for inspiration.
I also look on here for gift inspiration like little diy, personal gifts. There are a lot of 'how to' guides and step by step manuals to making different things so if you're ever stuck, give it a browse and get some inspiration.
I'll throw in a link to my Pinterest page so you can all have a nosey. Some of the boards are a bit sparse because I mainly look at wedding stuff. I love the romance!
That's all kids.
Toodles!
