My Christmas Wishlist 2017!

01:13 0 Comments

My Christmas Wishlist

Every year, I always get asked what I would like for Christmas, and I always say the same thing - 'I don't know'. 
Every year, I find it so hard to actually find anything that I'd like. This is mainly because if I need something, I'll just go ahead and buy it myself. 
This year, I actually managed to find four things that I's like for Christmas, and one of them is basically just a 'filler' present. For instance, I do really like this present, but I've pretty much got something very similar to the point where I don't really need them. 

Here's the only four things which are on my Wishlist. Of course, if I don't get these for Christmas, I'll be extremely grateful for anything I receive. It's just a fun little thing I put together (which I do every year), so I can let you all know what I've been lusting over. 

Smashbox Sculpting Cheek Palette

I saw this when I went into Boots last weekend with my Mum. I was looking for something for Neil, and happened to go across the Smashbox Counter and this drew my eye straight away. 
I love anything to do with highlight and blush, and I feel like I really need to try out some more of them, and get myself out of the rut with using the same two products - Mac Springsheen Blush, and TheBalm's Mary-Lou Manizer. Don't get me wrong, these are my favourite, but I feel like I just need to experiment more with different products. 
Also, this palette is travel friendly, so I could put it to some great use on holiday in February!

Adidas Superstar Shoes in Black & Gold

These trainers, I have been loving over the last month or so. I never really thought I'd be a trainers person - I usually just stick to my white converse which I wear pretty much every day. 
I've been really loving the Gucci Trainers, but I wouldn't spend £500 on a pair of trainers - they're waaaay out of my budget and they're just too much! So, I watched a video a little while ago from Shea Whitney, who mentioned that she wasn't sure if she was going to buy the Gucci Trainers and found these as a great alternative. Since that video, I've been loving the trainers, but I do think they're quite expensive. To me, £75 for shoes is quite expensive, but because I only have size 5.5 feet, I can get away with the Youth's sizes, which are only £45. I've been hinting this to my Mum, so hopefully she gets my hint. 😏

Coco Mademoiselle Eau De Parfum

I always manage to find one perfume which I'm loving every year, and I always give the task to buy it for me to Neil. He is my boyfriend after all, so he can spend a bit extra on me! hehe 
I'm never really someone who goes for expensive perfumes, as I usually just stick to my Britney Spears perfumes which always smell beautiful, and they're pretty cheap here. 
A few months ago, I was again in Boots with my Mum, when I was just browsing the Chanel and Dior perfume counters. I've never really been a fan of Chanel perfume before, as I feel like they just tend to smell a little old and overpowering on me. 
My mum sprayed the Chanel NO5 which she has loved for years, and I decided to spray the Coco Mademoiselle, and I was in love with the scent! It's one of the most beautiful scents I've smelt, and it's just perfect! It's floral, but not over powering, there's hints of sweetness, but not too much, and it smells fresh, but not too fresh. I usually hate anything to do with florals, as I like my sweet fragrances, but this is just AMAZING! 
It is very expensive, but it's stunning! 

UGG Bailey Bow Boots 

For the past few years, I've always told myself that I was going to buy some real UGG Boots. As you all know, they're pretty pricey boots - these ones are around £130!
I've bought myself a couple of pairs from Costco which have been such good quality, and only cost me around £20, and I believe they're made from the same materials too. 
However, I've been loving these for at least 2 years, and I've always said to myself, 'As soon as it gets to winter, you'll buy yourself a pair of those', and it never seems to happen. 
The good news is, I also get student discount so I'll say money on them, but it's just quite a big chunk of money for around Christmas time.
I don't necessarily need these, as I already have my Costco Uggs which are great, but they're a little thing I'd like to get one day. 

Obviously, if I don't receive any of these for Christmas, I will be super grateful with anything I have. Christmas is my favourite time of the year, and it's the time for giving back. 
I'm not someone who only wants specific thing, as I love anything that anyone gets me because I know they've put thought into it! 😀

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!

Chloe xoxo

Did I Get Everything On My Christmas Wishlist?

05:00 0 Comments


Hi guys,

On Christmas Eve last year, I posted a blog post on my Wishlist for Christmas 2016.

Now, I'm one of those people who doesn't know what they want, and I don't expect much at Christmas. Two of the presents on my Wishlist were extremely last minute choices! Click here to check out my Wishlist!

So, did I end up receiving everything I wished for?

I actually received one of the items from my mum and dad, and purchased one of them in the sale after Christmas, so I was extremely happy! 😊
My parents got me the Babyliss Curl Secret hair tool, and this was the present I mainly wanted, because I've been after it for several years, and since it came out on the market. I didn't buy it for myself, because I was holding off as it was £90 and would never go on sale for under £80!
I managed to find one at Costco, which was in a new package for £50, so I'm guessing that's why they had to go to Costco so urgently when the coupon book arrived! Hehe

The item which I purchased for myself was the Lancome Juicy Shakers set. I thought that this was pretty expensive over Christmas, as you didn't really save anything buying the set. I wasn't upset that I didn't receive it, as I was too crazy about it - it was a last minute present on my Wishlist anyway!
I headed over to the Boots website on Christmas Day Evening, as I couldn't sleep, and low and behold, there was a HUGE sale on all of their Christmas Gift Sets!
I managed to snag this set for under £30, which is around the same price as one and a half juicy shakers.
I've been obsessed with these little lip oils since they came out, however I'm still loving the colour I purchased when they came out more, which is the Melon flavour.

Even though I only received one of the items on my Wishlist, I was super happy, had a beautiful Christmas, and was so thankful of everything that I received!

I hope you all had beautiful Christmases, and if you don't celebrate Christmas, I hope you had a beautiful new year and holiday! 😊
Oh, and if you want to see some items I received for Christmas, and what I received for my birthday, check out the video above.

Enjoy,
Chloe xoxo
