With it being Friday tomorrow most people will be looking forward to a long weekend, for Christmas. The perfect way to start off the weekend is to sit in front of your favorite Vlogmas channel, or a festive film, and properly pamper yourself-run a bath, put on a face mask and light some candles. 

I have included a variety of the perfect pieces for a pamper night.

If you hadn't noticed faux fur is so on trend right now. Working in fashion has shown me just how popular this trend really is...we are constantly sold out of our faux fur coats&jackets with faux fur trim. 

Its understandable, as its ideal for crisp mornings, and frosty days-adding a classy, warm touch to any outfit. So I have shot two looks which incorporate my most worn fashion piece in my wardrobe-my faux fur gilet. 

I love this fashionable piece as it is perfect for layering-keeping me warm-and looking stylish. Plus it can be worn with a smart or casual look as you can see from the outfits below.

Everyone loves a good make up dupe- especially when it costs just £4, AND looks just as great. Primark are renound for affordable make up and their dupes-who's tried their smokey palette that gives urban decay a run for its money?

HAPPY BLOGMAS DAY 12!


Today as you may have been able to tell from the title I am creating the ULTIMATE VEGAN BAILEYS HOT CHOCOLATE. 

Yesterday-as you will know if you read  BLOGMAS DAY 11-MY BIRTHDAY, & LONDON SHOPPING IN THE SNOW!  Then you will know I bought Vegan Baileys in Wholefoods. Baileys is something I have missed sooo much since going dairy free and to have it back in my life is honestly the dream! I have tried this Vegan Baileys by itself and its the most delicious thing ever! I can't fault it! I HAD to make a Baileys recipe with it so of course I went for a Baileys Hot Chocolate. I have added lots of vegan toppings such as vegan fudge, vegan marshmallows, oreo thins, and of course cocoa powder. I really hope you love this recipe as much as I do-Honestly its THE BEST hot chocolate I have ever tried *bold statement* but I love it so much.

BLOGMAS DAY #11 THE MOST MAGICAL BIRTHDAY 


Happy Blogmas day 11 Lovelies!

Today IS MY BIRTHDAY.

To celebrate I took the day off work, and traveled up to London to do some shopping, visit cute, cafes, and enjoy all the festive feels! It was honestly the most magical day-as we shopped in Harrods it was snowing. I felt like I had stepped out of a book or film. I couldn't believe how perfect it was. 

We started off the day visiting Peggy Porschen Cakes-Is this not the most Instagram worthy cafe on the planet!? With snow falling and the most stunning Christmas decorations surrounding me, I sipped on spiced apple tea.

How to beat the overwhelming feeling of S T R E S S

M O T I V A T I O N A L    M O N D A Y 

Hello lovelies!

Its that time of the week again where I share some Monday Motivation to help get you through the week, as positively as possible.

This week I've been feeling so overwhelmed. Works getting crazy busy, I've had Laryngitis, and I feel so behind on BLOGMAS. 

Today I wanted to write this for anyone else who is in a similar situation to me; where you love christmas but the chaos of it all is starting to make your mind turn to mush

Christmas is about slowing down and enjoying time with your family. Don't sweat the small stuff. Focus on Happiness, great food, and even better company. 

Here are a few of my favorite things this time of the year, to remind myself to make sure they are a frequent part of my life, and to not get bogged down by anything too menial. 


Despite having a very hectic afternoon, this morning I did manage to fit in a couple of hours to enjoy a super cute hot chocolate at a farm cafe in the middle of nowhere with my Mum, Uncle, Nanna, and Granddad. It was so nice to see people who mean the world to me and always help to make me feel better no matter what.





I'd love to know what your favorite things are-comment below and let me know!
