Hello my honeybears!
Yes, I have resurfaced. Finally. Did you like my Game of Thrones reference?
Anyway, as you may have noticed if you have dared to venture outside, it is getting fairly nippy. When I say fairly nippy, I mean I have been frozen solid and telling everyone how horrifically cold I am along with constant shivering and teeth chattering.
Due to this, rather sudden, weather change, I've decided that I would show you my woolies. Hats, gloves and all the other wooly goodies I own.
This is currently my only cardigan...for now. It's so nice and cosy and snuggly. I love it so much even the colours. My hat is also brilliant, admit it? It's cute as a button and being a bear is all the rage these days, don't y'all know?
Cardigan - Primark - £16
Bear Hat - River Island - Christmas Present
This is actually a lads jumper from Matalan years ago. It's so big even though it's a small. Men are really big, aren't they? It feels like you're getting a big, warm cuddle all day when you wear it. The one downside: due to my long hair, when I pull it over my head I end up getting my hair stuck and pulling it out. Ouchie :(
I can honestly give you no details on my lovely owl jumper as it was a Christmas present off my boyfriend last year. I can tell you that the neck was so scratchy, to the point where my neck was red raw, that I had to 'trim' the harder parts off and wash it with A LOT of fabric softener. It did shrink a touch :( ANYWAY, I got the hair band (yes, it is a hair band) as a gift too but it was £12 from a Christmas fair in Durham City Centre. So looking forward to it this year. If you're from the North East, come along, there is everything. I always feel a bit like a cougar in leopard print. I feel I should be inviting young men into my house because I need my pool cleaning. This would, however, help if I had a pool and wasn't 19.
Same jumper, I love it. This hat, known in my household as the Bat/Cat hat, was the first animal related item that I bought as an 'adult'. It is from River Island about 5 years ago at around about £8ish pounds. Don't quote me on that. I feel like a child when I wear it but it makes me happy. Wear what makes you smile.
Just chillin', being a raccoon. Yet another River Island purchase. This was during my love affair with River Island which ended abruptly last year after an incident with a pair of shoddy studded leggings. Anyway, off topic. I always wear this in winter because when it snows, I feel like lying down and burrowing. Do raccoons burrow? Am I confusing them slightly with badgers? It's also not that thick so I can wear it under my coat but it's thick enough so I can warm without an extra layer.
This is without the hood and looking vaguely normal.
AHHH! MITTENS! I love mittens! They're foxy/raccoony too. Guess where they're from? That's right. RIVER ISLAND! Animal stuff makes me more happy than I care to admit and they do/did a brilliant selection of animal related clothing during the winter. These are actually really toasty but the thumb is slightly too big from my hands and when the tops are down, it is, naturally, difficult to do anything.
One of my cats decided to help me by trying stealing my camera and 'redesigning' my leggings with her claws. She's all heart, see.
I really love winter. Do you? Let me know your favourite season :)
That's me done for today.
I will be back soon to ramble aimlessly about life.
Toodles!

PRESENTS!
Yello my honeybears!
I know I've posted already today BUT since today is my boyfriend's birthday, I got thinking about presents and things I want for Christmas or my birthday. They're so close together that I really struggle to think of things that I need or even want tbh so I've started just making list through the year.
I love getting presents, who doesn't? Even if you know what it is, you almost always get that lovely fluttery feeling in my stomach when you're tearing into the wrapping paper or opening the bag. I recently passed my driving test and, because my boyfriend and I have been together for almost a year, he decided to get me a present. I broke my last clutch bag on a night out (clumsy drunk) so he got me a new one.
I can't even explain how in love I am with this clutch bag. It goes with just about everything and it's so shiny. I'm like a magpie, sorry. It's so big that you can fix your purse, keys, essential make up, the kitchen sink into it and still have room. It also has a detachable hand strap and chain so you can use it as a clutch or use the chain or hand strap, I use the chain because I feel safer that way but it looks good with or without. It was almost 20 quid but seriously, it's well worth the money as it has no magnet that could become detached and leave you open to pick pockets, it's a zip close so everything is safe and sound.
Clutch bag - Missguided.com - £19.99
I really like Lord of the Rings and Star Wars and most things quirky (hence why I bought a replica 'One Ring') so when I found a website that sells Star Wars and Lord of the Rings dresses and leggings, I was over the moon! Everything is a little pricey but seriously, I'm yet to see someone complain about the quality. Here are a few of my favourites:
R2D2 body suit
R2DR and C3PO leggings
Witch King leggings - All blackmilk.com
I could just post the website link because, tbh, I love E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G. The witch king leggings are on my anniversary list and the others are on my Christmas and birthday list (if I haven't been able to buy one in the mean time). If you are a lover of quirky clothes then this and Etsy are perfect places to shop.
So, if anyone feels like they've got too much money to cope with then you can always buy me one of these :)
I'll be off to bed now guys,
Toodles
