THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS: CHOCOLATE CRUNCH PUDDING

TOMORROW IT'S CHRISTMAS EEEK! I really hope you all have a wonderful day tomorrow full of ridiculous amounts of food and a sea of wrapping paper (this isn't even an exaggeration lols).

If you're not a fan of christmas cake, like me, you will love this chocolate crunch Christmas pudding! I first learnt how to make this a few years ago at school and every year since my parents have asked me to make it for Christmas. It is basically chocolate, biscuits and fruit mixed together to make one delicious pudding!

THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS: A WINTERS DAY

Yesterday, my family went to the seaside as it was such a beautiful winters day. My sister and I did a little shoot and I love these photos so much. I even played around with some of the pictures and edited them, so I hope you like! I'm so excited as I'm getting a camera for Christmas and my dad bought it for me today. I can't wait to take some cool photos. What have you asked for for Christmas?

THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS: DIY GIFT IDEAS

Pinterest has become an obsession of mine, and I spend cosy winter nights in scrawling through adorable pictures of scented candles and cups of coffee :) So with some inspiration from Pinterest I've created a few cute but affordable DIY gifts. I think you will agree with me that it's hard to think of presents for all your friends and family at Christmas, especially when you're on a budget and running out of time. If this related to you, read on!

THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS: WISH LIST

Recently I've been so busy with school work and catching up on coursework, I haven't got around to blogging! It also gets so dark so early in Winter, so I can't take any nice photos! However, I really want to do a Chritmassy series of posts for you! Christmas is definitely my most favourite time of year. So from now up until Christmas (only 12 days left, hence the title!) I will be posting lots of Christmas filled posts!

Todays post is my Christmas wish list. These are just a few things I would like for Christmas, but my main present will be a camera! I am so excited to receive a camera, as I'm really into photography and want to be able to take professional photographs! I would love to read your Christmas wish list in the comments below…

Hello and Welcome,

Can you believe its nearly Christmas? This year has gone so fast and exams are even closer, but I'm still extremely excited about Christmas *eeek*! I want to do some Christmassy posts, so look out for them! 

I've been pairing jumpers with all my dresses, skirts and skorts this autumn. I love this skirt that I inherited from my sister (yes, she's three years younger than me but basically the same size!) and her boots I borrowed too.  Wearing a jumper and jacket with the skirt makes the look more casual and also keeps you warm!

ROOM DETAILS

Hello and Welcome, 

Ah the first week back at school is finally over, but I have mocks next week so all I've had time for is revision. Anyone else feel the same at the moment? Finally, I have got around to blogging, and I've wanted to post this post since Summer! (oh how I miss Summer *sigh*) 

And before we start this post, please go check out my Dad's new blog! Share and spread the word to anyone who's interested in business. It already looks so professional and is really good for all the business people out there! Networking & Business Success: The art of networking… effectively!

So todays post is a mini tour around my room! I really like the look of my room at the moment and I've managed to keep it looking similar to this in the Autumn, even though its dark outside. I hope you enjoy this post and it may inspire you to change your room up!

I keep adding so many memories to my wall, and I love how it looks. It is so easy to do too!

I loved the look of flowers on my bed side table, they brightened up the room and made it feel so summery! I may buy some fake flowers soon, so I can keep them in my room all year round. I kept them in an old glass bottle, which looked so cute. 

I hope you enjoyed this post, and good luck for anyone with mocks or exams coming up!

LACE UP BOOTS AND WE WALK AWAY

Hello and Welcome,

I feel like I haven't posted in forever, but it is finally half term so I will try to post a bit more. I've been addicted to Instagram, in love with Pinterest and discovered Polyvore recently! I've looked at lots of inspiration for autumn/winter, as I just love dressing up at this time of year. I found a really cute outfit on Pinterest and tried to recreate it. 

My scarf was a bargain £1 find at my local car boot market and I was so happy! It's perfect for autumn, along with these boots I've had since last year. Comment your Pinterest links down below and I'll go check your page out!

OLD SCHOOL LOVE

Hello and Welcome,

I am in love! I recently bought a skort in the new look sale, and it will be my autumn/winter staple. I really wanted a more dressy item that I could still wear day to day. The skort is perfect for this! I think dark florals are also very on trend this season, so I was happy this was in the sale. I can wear tights with it when it's colder too. Have you found any new things for autumn/winter? I paired it with my school shoes which I'm also in love with! I think it looks so cute and school-girly (is that a word?) with the socks. I've also discovered a new place for photography, which I rather like!

BENEFIT MAKEOVER

Hello and Welcome,

I haven't got round to posting for a while oops! But Im back and have some good posts lined up. I've wanted to do this post for a while now. Last weekend my sister and I went to a free benefit makeover, and it was really good. All the benefit products are so pretty and the assistant was so helpful! The make up was very natural and pretty. My favourite product used was the 'gimme brow', I'm saving up!

PRODUCTS USED:

it's potent! eye cream

the POREfessional

hello flawless oxygen wow!

they're real! mascara

gimme brow

hoola

dandelion

benetint

If you ever get the chance, definitely have your makeup done at benefit! I found out some new tips like  you should contour your face in a figure of 3 and you only need a pearl size amount of foundation. It was so helpful and the products are so pretty. I know what's on my christmas list :)

DRESSED IN BLACK

Hello and Welcome,

Just a little outfit post from the other week, as it's getting a bit colder. I love this outfit (although it is mainly black oops!) as it's casual and pretty, but can still be dressed up. I also love wooly jumpers this autumn. Hope everyone's coping back at school, can't say I am!

VERY VINTAGE

Hello and Welcome,

How was everyone's weekend? I've had a really nice weekend away from school (monday tomorrow oh no). Last night my family and I went to a festival event called Goodwood Revival and it was amazing. It happens every year and everyone dresses up in vintage clothes, vintage bands play, there is a funfair and lots more! To get through the gate you need to buy a ticket, but we went to the funfair outside which is free! We went on the helter skelter and listened to some amazing 50s bands. It's just so much fun seeing everyone dressed up and the atmosphere is great! If you ever get a chance to go to the Revival, you definitely should! 

*photo creds to Dad* :)
