WHAT I GOT FOR CHRISTMAS!

Hello lovelies! Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and got everything you wanted! I thought I'd share with you what I got for Christmas but please do not think I am bragging or showing off, I am super appreciative of everything I got and understand how blessed I am to have such a wonderful family! I hope you enjoy this blog & don't forget to comment down below with what you got for Christmas, I'd love to know😊 

MAIN PRESENTS

Soho Vinyl Player and Royal Blood Vinyl 

This was the one present I asked for and I have to say I am in LOVE! I have this vinyl on CD and it sounds so much better on vinyl, I cannot wait to build up my vinyl collection and I know I'm going to listen to this so much! Thankyou to my uncle for getting me this, it's incredible! 

AMAZON DOT

This isn't something I thought I wanted but now I have one I don't know what id do without it! I love this for playing music and I feel it will help me out so much with my final year at university, I'm obsessed! You guys need one, it's so handy and so clever! 

MICHAEL KORS EARRINGS 

I got a rose gold Michael kors bracelet for Christmas last year and now I have the earrings to match, I am totally in love with these and know I will wear them so much, I'm so lucky😍 

ADIDAS GAZELLES IN PINK/GREY 

I've wanted some Adidas gazelles for such a long time and these are absolutely stunning! My mum knows me so well and knew I would love this colour combo, they are super comfortable and I'm in love😍

(Sorry they have marks on, I've worn them already🙈) 

JEWELLERY 

The necklace on the right is one I can put ashes in, I lost my grandad in April so this one means so much and I love that he can be with me everyday. I can also put his picture in the locket on the left which is beautiful! I got the diamond ring a while back as an early xmas present and have worn it everyday since, I'm obsessed! Finally, my mum knows I love glitter so the watch was a winner. I've been after a watch for a while for placement at uni so this will come in so handy! 

MAKEUP

I got spoilt with make up this year! My mum got me the two max factor sets (the box and the gold bag). The box contained an eyeshadow palette (03 rose nudes), a mascara, a lipstick (830 dusky rose) and a blusher (15 seductive pink) and the gold bag contained the smooth miracle primer, felt tip liner, false lash epic mascara and a lipstick (65 so luxuriant). I also got the make me up too nude eyeshadow palette which is a dupe of the naked palette and I can't wait to try it. From my auntie I then received the pro fusion contour palette which has a range of contour and highlighter shades & 3 brushes, 2 foundations - W7 16hr photo shoot (natural beige) and the Maxfactor skin lumimiser miracle (nude 47) and the W7 blush/contour. From Younique I got their mascara and brush cleanser which are both meant to be incredible so I can't wait to try them and my nannan got me a baked eyeshadow palette. The nivea lip balm set was just a stocking filler but will come in so handy! 

PERFUME

I got so much perfume this year! My mum got me one called blush (small rectangle one) and one called sparkle (small grey bottle) both from next and they smell incredible! My auntie got me the just pink at the back which is huge! I won't run out for a while that's for sure! Then I got some coconut body mist (i am obsessed with the smell of coconut) and a ted baker body mist as a stocking filler. 

BODY CARE 

My auntie made me a huge coconut hamper (she knows I am obsessed) containing body scrub, shower gel, bath bomb, exfoliating gloves etc which was so lovely! My mum also got me some new look body wash and body butter and I got the W7 day cream and night cream! My skin is so happy about it😍 

NAILS 

My mum got me a gorgeous matte nail varnish set from new look, it contains the shades (L-R): Bordeux, Truffle, Rasberry and Silver. I also got 3 from Avon which are gorgeous- shades sapphired up and fabulous and a silver glitter. I always love new nail varnishes even if I am rubbish at painting my nails haha! 

RANDOM EXTRAS 

I got these two sets of pyjamas which I adore and two sets of slippers, one pair in the picture and some my little pony ones which are so cute!! I also bought a red nightshirt with my Xmas money in the primark sale which I am obsessed with! (The nightshirt is in the wash sorry)

In the same sale I bought these pink velvet, Doc Marten style boots. I have them already in silver and I am obsessed, I wear them everyday so I'm super happy I have them in another colour!

As a little stocking filler I got this selfie light, My mum knows I am obsessed with taking selfies (vain I know haha) and this makes me look so much better🙈 I'm actually obsessed and it's one of my fave presents! If you are like me then you need one of these, it's so good! 

As a stocking filler I got this Christmas mug with hot chocolate in which I loved but then my uncle suprised me with this Carlos Bakery mug from America, I've been a fan of cake boss for a long time so can't believe I have this! So happy!

Obviously I got lots of chocolate and goodies haha! On Christmas eve my mum gave me some sweets in the shape of a sleigh (right) and a cup with hot chocolate powder and marshmallows in😍 then I also got a massive bar of galaxy, a terrys chocolate orange and a box of lindt chocolates (My absolute faves😍). On the left is a cocktail shaker full of alcohol flavoured chocolates which is awesome in itself but then this is a fully working cocktail shaker which I will definitely make use out of at uni haha! I love this little gift, I was so impressed that I could use it😂 

Finally I got two candles which have my grandads face on. These made me cry as I miss him soooooo much. I won't show a picture for personal reasons but they are beautiful and I'm not going to light them as I want to treasure them forever❤ 

GIFTS TO MYSELF

I know it sounds daft but I actually treated myself to two things this Christmas😂

Firstly I bought a ticket for Download Festival which I am way too excited for!! As a huge rock/metal fan, I've been dying to go to this festival for years and the fact I finally get to go makes me so incredibly happy, I am super pumped to go and I know it will be the most incredible weekend! WIN!!!😍 

I also bought myself a ticket to see Bastille in April. Bastille have been my favourite band for almost 6 years and i saw them live in 2016 which was the best night of my entire life! This tour will be different as it is them with a big orchestra so is all acoustic and I for one cannot wait to see them, I think it will be such an incredible show and I'm counting down the days! Bastille could stand there silent for 2 hours and id still pay to see them and say it was the best night😂😂 

I also got money (whilst writing this I haven't yet spent it) so expect a boxing day sales haul coming soon😍 

And that's it!! I hope you enjoyed! I'm so lucky to have received so many wonderful presents and understand how lucky I am. I am super appreciate of everything, it's been such a wonderful Christmas and I hope it was the same for you!
