Christmas Gifts (including my #MSM Secret Santa!) ♥

I did a wishlist post before Christmas and explained that I probably wouldn’t really get a lot of stuff because I only have a few people that buy for me, and I wasn’t expecting any large gifts as I’d already had a new car, camera, and kitten this year from my parents! But I did get a few nice gifts which I am very grateful for! So here’s what I got for Christmas from my lovely friends and family:

My parents got me this amazingly hilarious geek bunny knitted jumper. I saw it in Camden and thought it was amazing and showed my parents and they bought me one online 🙂 I love it, it’s slightly oversized but it fits nicely! They also bought me some nice colourful long sleeved pyjamas, and a pretty dress, which unfortunately doesn’t fit 🙁 boo hoo! I also got a gorgeous Cath Kidston floral printed purse which I did ask for a while ago as I needed a new spacious purse. I love it!

My very kind boyfriend bought me this amazing cream lacey dress, which I’m going to wear on New Years Eve! He lives in Wales and I’ve gone to visit him for a week over New Years which will be nice 🙂 It’s got a lovely floaty mesh skirt and lacey top and I love it! He also got me some long socks which I like to wear with my Hunter wellies when we go on wet Welshy walks! And a really cute gold owl ring 🙂 I love that, as well as some funky fairisle printed tights!

My best friend bought me this nice baking set from Next which comes with a nice big heavy mixing bowl, a pretty tea towel, a cookie cutter and a scone making mix! I’ve not made scones since I was at school so I look forward to making those! She also got me some retro sweeties, a cupcake air freshener, and a nail file. She got Merlin a few little treats too!

My sister and her partner bought me a fleecey onesie, a pair of cute Minnie mouse pyjamas a Tom Daley calendar, and a pair of Ralph Lauren panties. They also gave me a voucher for Outfit which I used to buy some cute slippers! I also got some money and a reindeer headband from my Auntie 🙂

I also need to show you my Secret Santa gifts from Gemma-Louise! We were paired up as part of the Money Saving Supermarket Secret Santa venture, and we each bought each other gifts up to the price of £25. Gemma-Louise bought me the French Lieutenants Woman on DVD (which she picked for me as it was filmed in Lake Windermere, where I visited recently), a notebook and a magnet with a Northern Irish saying, two Essence nail polishes (a lovely red and a sparkly glitter!), an Essence nude lipstick, and Essence lipliner and an eyeliner. She packaged it all up in a lovely reindeer patterned red shiny gift box too! Thank you Gemma-Louise!

For my part in the Secret Santa, I bought her a Revlon Lip Butter, MUA
Love Hearts lip balm, a sequined clutch bag, some false eyelashes, a
coaster, and some winter socks. I also threw in a few Christmas lollies
and cosmetic samples! I chose the sequined bag because she looks like a very glam girl in her blog photos, and I’ve seen her wearing an amazing sequined dress for her 21st birthday! I also saw that she has lovely eyes and said that she’s obsessed with lashes so I thought some falsies would be a good gift. And she also always has nice bold lips so that’s why I chose a Candy Apple red Revlon lip butter for her 🙂 The ‘Save Water Drink Champagne’ coaster I also thought would be perfect, judging by her blogs name ‘Champagne Lifestyle, Student Budget’!
