Xmas Day Outfit & Presents

Hi, it feels like I haven't looked at my blog in absolutely ages, I've been out every day of the holidays so far and am glad to stay in and relax today! Above is some of my lovely presents, my mum knitted the little pug for me - she can make anything - it was such a surprise when I opened it. I love pugs and wish I had one of my own. I also got the pink mini straighteners from ASOS, they are tiny handbag sized and I have been doing my fringe with them. They are really good and a get a lot hotter than I thought they might. For some reason I decided I wanted a collection of mini items for Xmas, I also requested the YSL Babydoll mini perfumes and a Too Faced mini palette. This is why I am selling the Elf mini palette i mentioned in the post below, I had had my eye on this Too Faced one. The colours are perfect, I used it to touch up my make-up before I went out last night. I also got my boyfriend to get me a huge bottle of Marc Jacobs Lola - I first smelt it in Harvey Nichols in the summer and have been waiting for it ever since - and my sister got me a few lovely Lush bits - she knows I love a bit of Snow Fairy.



On the day I wore this pastel pink Miss Selfridge jumper dress, I love the crochet detail at the neckline...

My Vivienne Westwood pearl bas necklace which I got for my birthday last year...




Barry M nail paint in Baby Blue, I got a couple of lovely sets of Accessorize rings last week which I have been wearing aswell.




Another pretty ring, this one came in a set of 3, the other two were a gold heart with a pearl in the centre, and a tiny rose cameo.




As I wasn't going to be walking far, I dared to wear my New Look black suede OTKs..








And for the journey from the doorstep to the car, I wrapped up in this gorgeous mushroom pink cropped fur jacket from Zara.





This is the jacket laid out - it has a blue rose print lining, could it be any prettier??

I had a nice Xmas dinner cooked by my lovely boyfriend, then we went to visit my parents later on in the day for nibbles, everyone has been very generous to us, we got 3 food hampers! Obviously I had to hit the sales on Boxing Day, I will do a post on my bargains later on. Hope everyone had a great Xmas Day.
