What I Got For Christmas 2017!

Firstly, I hope you had a lovely Christmas and took some time to relax and have some fun for a few days. Secondly, WHY DOES IT ALWAYS GO TOO FAST?? 

 So this post is me trying to cling onto Christmas for as long as I can with another (probably the last) Christmassy blog post this year..

I know this post isn't everyone's cup of tea but this is one of my favourite blog posts to read/YouTube videos to watch after Christmas. I love seeing what people got for Christmas, and if there's anything I love, searching for it in the after Christmas sales! I got spoilt this year by my friends and family, and I'm so grateful to them, so there's lots to get through!

Home Bits & Bobs - I'm really bad at organising stuff. Really bad. So I was so happy to receive these Zoella Tins and Desk Calendar, and also this adorable Cactus Notebook.

I'm also all set for a cozy night in with these adorable penguin cozy socks, reindeer eye mask, and these two amazing smelling candles: Christmas Cookie from Yankee Candle, which smells so sweet and Christmassy and the Vanilla Chai Candle from Body Shop which smells sweet but spicy. I also can't wait to read about Hygge, which I will definitely be needed in the gloomy January days. 

Books - I wanted some new books as I used to read all the time and am really wanting to get back into it. I've heard so many good reviews about Carrie Hope Fletcher's books so I can't wait to start those. I've also been loving Louise Pentland's videos at the moment so I'm looking forward to Wilde Like Me. I've never read A Christmas Carol so maybe I can cling onto Christmas a little longer by reading it curled up with a hot chocolate.

Vegan Things - I've been Vegan for over a year now and I love getting new recipe books and finding new Vegan treats (especially chocolate!) and these Santa and Reindeer lollies are adorable. I'm obssessed with this Oreo pin badge and I can't wait to put it on my denim jacket.

Beauty - I received so much body, bath stuff and make- up, and I'm so happy about it! Firstly, I got the two Soph palettes I've been obsessing over since they came out, a Loreal Cheryl Lip kit in the most gorgeous red brown shade and a 4- pack of the Real Technique sponges.

I also received a Lush gift box, and a Liz Earle set with the Hot Cloth Cleanser that I can't wait to try! 

I've never tried Next perfume, but this one smells amazing - I'm definitely treating myself to a bigger bottle! The Juicy Mango cuticle oil pen and Flutter hand cream are both suitable for Vegans -something I'm trying to incorporate into my make up/skincare products.

Is it really Christmas if you don't receive Lush stuff? Snow Fairy is one of my favourites and I've got a giant bottle to last me all year. I also got a little pudding bath bomb, and the most adorable snowman bubble bar.

I absolutely love Zoellas bath ranges, but this years by far is by favourite. I was so happy to get this huge box full of most of this years products, and a set of miniature perfumes from some of her previous ranges.

I love face masks especially Charcoal ones so I'm looking forward to testing this one out. I also got one of my favourite body sprays from Soap and Glory.

One of my favourite body brands is Soap and Glory and this huge box is one of my favourite things ever. It's full of their most popular products, some of which I haven't tried including the make-up and face mask. 

Clothes - I love this matching scarf and hat set, the pom poms are so cute. I'm also so obsessed with these leather gloves from Topshop.

Jewellery - I've been loving delicate jewellery at the moment and these earrings are so gorgeous, as is the ring.

Disney - So this past year, my childhood love for Disney has resurfaced and grown so much. Firstly, have you seen anything more adorable than the Pooh bear hot water bottle? I also recieved the Chip and Dale mug, and this cute little tin Mickey mug, as well as the adorable trinket dish.

One of my favourite gifts this year- Thumper! The Chip and Dale socks are so cute, and the Mickey Light is perfect for my room.

As me and my boyfriend are off to Disneyland Paris next year for my 18th, my family bought us a Disneyland Paris Guide and some euros for our trip. They also got me the Olaf Frozen Adventure DVD as he's one of my favourite characters!

In my opinion you can never have too many pyjamas, (in my case Disney pyjamas) and these Tinkerbell ones are adorable.

Vouchers - I was also lucky to receive lots of vouchers so I can treat myself to lots of goodies over the next year. 

One of my favourite gifts this year was so unexpected from my boyfriend, a HP Sprocket printer, which prints photos from your iPhone. And it's copper, what more could you want.

Last but not least, a Scratch Off Map. I've always wanted to travel around the world and I love the idea of these. As you can see not much of it's scratched off yet, but hopefully some of that will change over the next few years! 

I hope you enjoyed this post, apologies for it being so long but I wanted to include everything as I'm so grateful for my family and friends. I haven't included links or prices as I don't like the idea of looking up presents or knowing the prices but if you search in Google i'm sure you'll find them!

I hope you have a lovely New Year, see you in 2018!

Thanks for reading,
