HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE :-) This post is going up a little late this week
but it's Christmas and I wanted to spend my precious time with my loved ones
instead of being on my pc for hours, but of course I know you would all
understand! So now, on to the post - last
Saturday and Tuesday I spent time with some of my lovely friends and had a good
last minute Christmas shop! I also took
my camera along with me and this is what happened :-)
First off, I was actually quite pleased with my
attempt at a festive make up look on Saturday.
I used my Maybelline Tattoo eyeshadow in Eternal Gold as a base, then
dabbed over the main lid with Half Baked, which is a beautiful golden shimmer
and then added a little Smog on the outer corner. I used a little black eyeshadow for my
eyeliner and then just added my favourite Seventeen Doll'd Up mascara. For my lips, I decided to have a change from
my usual nude lip and used my Natural Collection lipstick in Cranberry, a
lovely plum shade and I added Tanya Burr's Heart Skipped a Beat, a sheer
shimmery red gloss, over the top. What
do you think?
Our little town was extremely busy with everyone
having the same idea and all doing a crazy last minute shop!
I had quite a long list on my phone, which I
gradually worked through, but didn't have chance to stop and take a great many
photos, thankfully I pretty much managed to get most of the bits I was after
and one of the first places I went to was Boots. I'd decided to put together a little mini
makeup kit for one of my friends and just needed to pick up a few essentials in
here. I even managed to resist
temptation to buy anything for me!
Then I went off to Poundland and stocked up on a
nice lot of nibbly bits to last me throughout the week, I do like a few nibbly
bits over Christmas (as long as chocolate is involved) :-)
After that, I was well and truly ready for a
rest and by 2.30 I went off to Costa to meet up with one of my best friends.
Their cake selection is way too tempting, just
look at these!
I spotted this tasty treat on one of the costa
newsletters and was longing to try it out.
It's a white hot chocolate with cream and a cherry sauce! Oh yes!! :-)
When I got home that evening I started to wrap
up my first lot of Christmas gifts, ooh I love doing these.
On Tuesday, I went off in to town again with my
besty, and we ended up having a really nice long day of window shopping and
getting any very last minute bits we needed.
I mainly only spent my cash in Primarks and Tesco. In Primarks I just picked up a spare
hairbrush, a nice beaded belt and these cute little fairy lights to go up in my
bedroom, they were only £1.50 too!
Then we went off to Tesco, we have a really nice
large store in this area and it's full to the brim with everything you could
possibly want or need for Xmas! We had a
good look around for quite a long while (at least 2 hours!) And here's some of the things I saw. . .
Rows and rows of cards. . .
Lovely shiny tubes of wrapping paper. . .
Christmas crackers as far as the eye could see!
I also spotted these nice tins and boxes of
biscuits and I picked this box for only £2.50 :-)
I just had to take a pic of this, so cute! Although sorry to disappoint you but sadly
they aren't solid chocolate, these giant sweets are full of little mini ones.
What a lovely huge tree :-)
On the way home it was lovely to see all the
lights and decorations up in all the houses but some people take it a little too far!! OTT me thinks!

I
hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, spent time with your families and
friends and got everything you wished for :-)
Until Next Time Stay Happy ♥
