What I Got For Christmas 2015.

So I've had a few weeks off now and I'm back to start the New Year off with What I Got For Christmas! I am SO grateful every gift I received this year, so here is what I got.


I got these gorgeous gifts of my best friend, Louise! She's honestly put so much thought into these and knows me far too well! I use this notebook she bought me for my blog notes, and use these lip products on a daily basis! Lastly, she made me this K. How cute is that!? I can't wait to put this on my desk when I get my own place, it's absolutely perfect!

 My boyfriend, Colin bought me Little Mix perfume which is my favourite go to scent at the moment and everything Zoella! We were on a budget this year as we are moving away so I literally told him "everything Zoella" really not thinking that he would actually get me almost everything from her range! He really didn't disappoint and I'm absolutely loving the rose gold make up bag!

My best friend, Emily bought me the Animal Kingdom colouring in book by Millie Marotta. I was so excited when I received this as I've said for months I was going to buy one to relax me. I've not put this down since I've got this, and I can't wait to buy more!

My Aunties & Uncles bought me a great selection of random gifts this year! I didn't take photos of them all as I have used most of them and got some at my boyfriend's place too, but I got the Friends boxset, perfume, money, champagne, a Sprinkle of Glitter diary, baking book and some home gifts for when I move.

Lastly, I received very thoughtful gifts of my Parents. I did get amazing gifts of them this year which I'm so grateful for! Down below are the main presents which I am so in love with. The Anastasia Beverly Hills contour palette in medium to tan is a palette I have wanted for so long and I can't believe they got this so right! Also I got two Gerard Cosmetics lipsticks in Fire Engine and Dragon Berry which I'll be doing make up looks with very soon! The mint cake mixer is for our new place and I can't wait to get using it and even do some baking blogs which will be interesting. Last but not least my camera! I've wanted a camera with a flip-up screen for a long time, especially one that is small enough for me to put in my handbag, who knows I might even do vlogs! These weren't all I received of them, I also got clothes, chocolates, Ted Baker make up, a hand painted cocktail glass and cute little stocking fillers.

Secret Santa Gifts For Under £5 | Blogmas | Day Sixteen

I've only ever done secret santa once, but I love the idea of it! My boyfriend inspired me to do this blog as he is actually doing a £5 secret santa at work, which when he told me my first response was 'but it's only a fiver, is that not difficult?' So, i've been searching high and low for £5 gifts and here's what i've found.

James & Friends Medium Pencil Case | £5.50 | So this is 50p over but I honest couldn't resist this! I need this! Look how cute it is, and definitely a good pencil case for any of your friends/family who are bloggers! This is from part of the stationary range by Jim Chapman (youtube).

Sass & Belle Robin Jewellery Box | £5.00 | This is a delicate gift which would look pretty sitting on a dresser or bedside table. If I had to buy anything for a woman I'd definitely purchase this little treasure! 

Set of 3 Cookie Cutters | £4.50 | If you have someone who loves to bake during Christmas these cookie cutters are right in the budget! In this set of 3 you get a stocking, angel and gingerbread man! 

Star Wars Stickers | £3.50 | The new Star Wars movie is out tomorrow, so I thought I'd add this in. If you have a Star Wars lover, why not buy these stickers that you can put on your laptop, phone etc. 

Ted Baker Mini Golden Treasure | £4.00 | This is a miniature shimmer body butter, and if you know anyone who likes Ted Baker or just likes to feel gorgeous, then this is the perfect gift.

Ted Baker Mens Mini Stocking Filler | £5.00 | In this set there's a body spray and a hair & body wash.  You can't really go wrong with gift sets, so I think this is perfect! 

Pug In A Mug Tea Infuser | £5.00 | For the tea and pug lovers! A simple gift which in fact can be very useful!

Sudoku On A Puzzle Cube | £5.00 | If you get someone who loves games or Sudoku this is a puzzle I've never actually seen before! It's quite like a Rubiks Cube but instead of colours you have to get 1-9 on each side of the Cube.

Beanstalk Seeds | £5.00 | If you have someone who loves gardening, then this can be a very special gift for them! You can put a message or sketch onto a beanstalk, plant the seeds and then watch the message grow!
