What I Got For Christmas 2015


Good morning everyone, hope you're all having a lovely boxing day! Today I wanted to share a few things with you that I received yesterday as I'm obsessed with reading these sorts of posts! I haven't included everything because I know I'll be featuring the clothes for example in a fashion post really soon and didn't want to bombard you guys. Obviously I'm not trying to brag I just thought you guys would like to see! 


The first thing I received from my wonderful parents were these absolutely stunning Ugg boots. I saw these a little while back on the Selfridges website and fell in love. They're so gorgeous and easy to walk in, they look perfect with skirts or trousers and I can see me getting a whole lot of use outta these bad boys! If I'm not mistaken they come in a tan brown colour as well which is equally lovely.


Up next: the camera lens of dreams! I mentioned in my christmas wish list post that I want to get more into fashion photography this year and after doing a little research, this seemed to be the lens everyone had. It's a 50mm f 1.8 which is wide-angle, creating that perfect blurred background us bloggers crave so much! Again thank you so much to my parents - you're amazing! 


From my sister I got two things, the first of which being a beautiful box of chocolates from Hotel Chocolat that I haven't photographed because... well, we started to eat them yesterday! However she also got me this non edible gift as well: a tripod! I'm super excited about this as I'm hoping it'll really help with my photography. I was actually so surprised she thought to get me this, but I love it so much!


Of course I had to get some books! If you want to know the synopsis of these I included them in my Christmas Wish List post. I'm really excited to get some more reading done in the New Year!



From my aunt who works in beauty I got this gorgeous box of Clarins goodies. There's so much amazing stuff in here ranging from eye creams to mascara to lip gloss! I absolutely cannot wait to try these out! She also got me three mini OPI nail polishes which will be just perfect for travelling - something I hope to do a lot of in the coming year.



From my uncle I received these lovely Body Shop bath products, including a shower gel, body sorbet and a loofa. They're all strawberry smelling and so lovely!  


The last things I wanted to show you were kind of a joke present from my parents. They basically went to Halfords and got all the car related accessories you could imagine. My main goal for 2016 is to pass my driving test and since I already have a car, they reckoned I'd be needing some things to go alongside it... including car shampoo no less! As funny as it was this is genuinely a great present and will come in super handy!

So there we have it! I've had an absolutely fabulous christmas this year and am looking forward to seeing what the new year has in store! 

I hope you guys enjoyed reading this post and doing forget to leave a comment below telling me what your favourite gift this year was!
