Christmas Shopping

Hey Guys!!!

 

Today is my Travel/Outing post so I thought I would tell how my day of Christmas shopping went.

 

On Tuesday me, my Mum & Nan decided to do our Christmas shopping as we had some High Street Vouchers to use :)

 

Our first lot of Christmas shopping was done over our local retail outlet Spytty, which has shops like Boots, The Perfume Shop, Asda, etc. I think everyone had the same idea and there just seemed to be so many people Christmas shopping as well. It was so nice though wrapping up warm and just the general Christmas-sy feeling about the place. All I got over there was a few presents for Llewellyn as he is actually the only person I had to buy for :) So I got him some clothes, a nice razor which he can use in or out of the shower, a nice aftershave and some DVDs :) I think we spent about an hour over there and we did then become a little hungry :)

 

So cue a lunch break :) We decided to try out the new restaurant that has opened over there, called Decks. This is a help yourself restaurant, so you basically go in, get a table and then you can pick from a carvery, pie of the day, and other meals that are on the menu from the 'buffet', you also get to help yourself to the vegetables on offer. Well I had the vegetarian cottage pie with some carrots and mash, I'm not vegetarian but that was the only pie there that I liked. Well I have to say it was absolutely gorgeous and was so full afterwards, the pie tasted sweet as it had carrots, peas and onions in the middle with gravy, it was gorgeous. I also had a lovely cup of tea with it as well, and it was rather cheap for the meal and tea it came to £7.50, so can't go wrong for that at all. So after we ate it was time to shop again :)

 

We went over to another retail park then as we had to go to Argos as I had to get some presents for Llewellyn and Ieuans' birthday present. That didn't take to long at all so then it was off back to Nans' to enjoy another cup of tea :)

 

Do any of you guys enjoy Christmas Shopping?

 

Do you prefer online shopping or actually going to the stores?

 

Hope You're Having A Good Week!!

 

See You Soon!! 

What's In My Shower Bag?

Hey Guys!!!

Hope you're all ok and enjoying your week so far :)

So I was sat here thinking what have I not seen yet, as we've seen What's In My Handbag? & What's In My Makeup Bag? tags but what about What's In My Shower Bag? So here we go, here is what is in my shower bag :)

So my shower bag I got because I needed a new shower bag for my honeymoon :) I seen this in Primark and fell in love with it as I loved the pattern and the colours, I also loved the size as I tend to use quite a lot of products when I'm away and just in general :) This particular one was £4 and I happen to have the matching makeup bag :) which you will see soon :)

So first off I just have my usual Eeyore flannel that I always use for holidays and have had it for years (don't worry it does get washed) so I'm not sure where its from. Then I have my contact lenses for when I want to wear them, which is not very often haha Of course I have my toothbrush holder which keeps it clean and doesn't get any lotions etc. on it. Then a must have which are my replacement razor blades for when they need replacing :)

Then I have my self tanning mitt which I actually haven't used yet as (touch wood) my tan hasn't faded yet, but I don't use self tan, like Fake Bake, I use tinted moisturiser. I got this from Primark and I think it was about £1, so a total bargain :) I then also have my exfoliating gloves which I use in the shower, bath and when moisturising :) I love using these as my skin always feels gorgeous afterwards and I always feel extra clean after using them :)

These are the products that I use regularly and also the products I love :) So I will go from left to right so you know what I'm talking about :) So I have Herbal Essences Shampoo as this is the only product I can use on my hair as for some reason nothing else seems to work or clean my hair properly, so I always use this now :) the smell is also gorgeous when using this, so I always have nice smelling hair :)

Then I have Ted Baker Body Fragrance spray which I use for a little spritz when I'm about to go out or sometimes I do take it with me to freshen up through the day, the smell is absolutely divine and is, I would say, a bit floral and summery, so its definitely a good spray to use in the summer :)

I then have hair removal cream from Avon Cosmetics which I use for the tops of my legs as the tops of my legs tend to be sensitive to a razor so it is better for me to use a hair removal cream :)

I then use my tinted moisturiser which is Dove Summer Glow for Fair to Medium Skin which is fantastic, as I used it for my Wedding to give me a bit of colour and after about 2 uses it went quite dark, so I definitely recommend this for winter if you want to have a bit of colour or if you want to keep your tan going from a holiday :) It is a bit expensive but I managed to find it when it was on offer in Boots at £2.49 and luckily I had some Boots points and used them. I actually only started using this as my friends sister recommended it, so its definitely a must have in my eyes :)

Then last but not least my shower gel :) I am currently using Palmolives Naturals in Pampering Touch which has Coconut and Moisturising Milk :) It smells absolutely gorgeous and is rather silky compared to other shower gels that I have used. It definitely does what it says on the tin with the moisturising aspect as my skin feels so soft afterwards especially as I use my exfoliating gloves to wash with :) I can't actually remember where I got this but I think I got it while it was on offer as I bought 4 of them haha

Well I hope you have enjoyed finding out What's In My Shower Bag? and I invite any of you that reads this blog to have a go and let me know so I can see your post :)

Hope you all have a great day and will see you all soon :)

Outfit Of The Day: 21/9

Hey Guys!!!!

Haven't done a post in a while so thought I would do an outfit of the day as I rather like the outfit I've put together :)

So the outfit I'm wearing I just had a look in my mind and put it together with what I already had.

So my shoes are from Primark and they're so comfortable, I can see me wearing these all the time :) both to work and everyday wear :)

My tights are thick, wool type material and are so warm especially now that the weather is getting a bit chilly, I do find them a little itchy but its tolerable. These are also from Primark :)

My skirt I have had for ages, so I can't remember where I got it from and it was originally my sisters, haha The material is a nice, chiffon type material and is nice and floaty which is perfect for Summer.

My top I got from Tesco during the Jubilee and is a nice cotton material and is warm but cool at the same time :)

My jacket is what I got on holiday and is so warm, I seem to be wearing it all the time lately haha but its just so warm and comfy :) perfect for winter and to lounge about in :)

Of course then my glasses are prescription and from Boots :)

I hope you've enjoyed this outfit of the day, feel free to comment what you think and if there is anything you would like me to review or write about :)

Hope you're all having a good day/weekend :)

Outfit Of The Day 14/9

So I thought I would post my outfit of the day, as I am popping up my friends house tonight and wanted to show you what I'm wearing.

So this is my outfit, its just casual, I know there isn't a lot of colour, its a lot of grey today, this is why I need to go shopping.

So the cardigan is from Primark and was actually a Christmas present for Llewellyn but he wasn't fussed on it so I started wearing it instead. It can be quite itchy but not to much as its wool, but the itchy kind.

My jeans are from a catalogue I have called Studio and got them last winter as I didn't seem to have any jeans for some reason. They're Skinny jeans and are so comfortable and you can easily move in them, as some skinny jeans you are restricted movement wise.

My top is also from Primark and I have had this top for years and it does seem to go with a lot of my clothes :) so that tends to be the top I where a lot.

My shoes are also from Primark, which I bought for summer (I think) and I constantly wear these to work and just everyday things :)

My glasses are prescription from Boots and they were £25, so you can't go wrong. I used to have smaller frames but wanted to try something different and these seemed to suit me so have had these for the past 6 months :)

Hope You're Having A Great Day :)
