CHRISTMAS WISHLIST

After seeing Anouska from Anouska Proetta Brandon do a Christmas gift guide, I realized that a lot of the things on the list is something I've been wanting for awhile. I haven't done a wishlist in FOREVER so here is a little Christmas edition. I kept clothes out of it because well, it's never ending and most of it isn't Christmassy. So here are 6 options that I'd love to get and hopefully, you get some ideas out of it too! (click name of product for link to shop)
CHRISTMAS WISHLIST, anouska proetta brandon, fugifilm instax, gift guide, diptyque candle, grace coddington memoir, michelle phan cosmetics, urban decay naked 3 palette,
1. Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette - yeeezus (what has my life come to...) I want this palette and I want it bad. Look at those colours! From what I've read, the hype around this is worth it. 

2. Grace Coddington Memoir - I've been wanting this for a while now but hey, what better time to get it than as a present?

3. Diptyque 'Foin Coupé' Candle - It took me about 7 tries to spell that right. Is it just me or does every beauty blogger have a diptyque candle!? Anyway, I've heard all the scents are amazing so any one will do!

4. Rifle Paper Co. Journals - Rifle Paper Co. have AMAZING and beautiful stationary/iphone cases/notepads etc. for all your journalistic and scribbly needs. 

5. Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 - For all your hipster, soft-grunge polaroid moments.  

6. EM Cosmetics 'Chiaroscuro' highlight & contour stick - I think Michelle Phan is a GENIUS for making this. Who else finds it incredibly hard to find a contour and highlighter? And to have a 2-in-1 product is brilliant. She doesn't ship internationally yet so I guess it'll be on the wishlist for another while :( but all you American make-up lovers, go right ahead.

That's it for now! Happy almost Christmas and I hope you've gotten some ideas!
I'd love to know what's on your wishlist this season? If you've anything to recommend, comment below :)

Hope you're all well,

Hey guys! Hope yous all had a great Christmas :D get anything nice? (like ah-mazing clothes?) More importantly, did anyone of yous go shopping on St. Stephen's day/boxing day?! Some stores opened at 12AM!! I love shopping but c'mon that is ridiculously late.

I went shopping around 1pm with my sisters and mom, and visited Topshop, Zara, Bershka and River Island. It was crazy. Everyone's animal instincts came out, women everywhere were snatching tops from the shelves, searching frantically through the rails, hoping to find their size.

Luckily, I managed to grab a few things! I've been wanting an oriental style bomber jacket for SO long plus I know they'll explode in stores everywhere in Spring! (remember all the bomber jackets on the spring 2013 runways?) It was around €73 but reduced to €30! I absolutely love it. You can count on me to be wearing it in a few posts. Anyway, I got some tops from Zara and that was it! It's crazy how everything was reduced by 50%, sometimes more. Did you buy anything that was reduced significantly? Let me know :)
What are everyone's plans for new year?

12 days of Christmas jumpers


Oh how traditional...


A picture says a 1000 words...


 Subtly festive...


Quietly in the holiday spirit...

Last Collage: Dorothy Perkins kiss jumper | A|Wear jacquard sweater | M&S jumper with tassels | Harvey Nichols Reindeer sequined jumper | Alice & Olivia collar jumper | Steve Madden booties | Marc Jacobs patent satchel

Okay technically it's fourteen days of Christmas jumpers... sorry, I got carried away!! They were all so comfy and cute and not to mention festive! Sorry for the lack of recent posts by the way. College work kept me busy for awhile there :/ So I thought this was a really fun post to do, it took a lot of researching through collections online but twas fun :D It's getting absolutely FREEZING outside. It's like one degree outside all the time so I throw on anything to keep me comfy plus a chic coat and I'm good to go. I feel like it's almost cheating. But how handy is it that we don't have to be pressured about our outfit everyday when we can wear a fabulous coat all day?! Like all you fashionistas out there, I want to look my best but not suffer through the frosty cold.

But here comes the important part...HOW to wear a Christmas jumper :o

The secret to wearing a Christmas jumper:
1. Wear with ANYTHING and EVERYTHING. 

It's seriously that simple, it really does go with everything! (unless you have one with bobbles and lights then yeah...you'll want to wear that scarcely...at home...alone.)

But if you want some ideas then here you go! Bear in mind though it'll be just like wearing a normal sweater.
          1. Wear with a black leather skater skirt
          2. With black skinnies and boots.
          3. Match with neutrals to let it stand out! 
          4. Throw a collared shirt underneath one.
          5. The fair isle ones in the first picture are really a statement on their own, let it be :)
Hope this is helpful, you really just wear it with anything. It's just a normal jumper...but Christmassy ;)
If you found any fun/wacky/gorgeous Christmas jumpers let me know...Put forth thy comment!

Happy mid-week folks!
