"All I want for Christmas is yooooooou!" That’s right I’m singing Christmas songs, but hay its allowed! It’s December!! (Yay) I literally cannot contain my excitement! I could bang on about how much I love Christmas, but instead I'm going to crack on (I'll save that for another time!). Above is my ultimate Christmas wish list of all the bits and bobs (expensive and inexpensive) that I'm currently lusting after. This Christmas list that I have put together, is what I would ask for Christmas if money was no option. Don't forget to let me know what you are lusting after this Christmas, in the comments below.
1. Hama Star 62 Tripod with Carry Case and Canon Remote Control RC-06: A couple of months ago I invested in a very lovely
Cannon DSLR. Although I study Broadcast Journalism at University, I'm in now
way shape, or form a skilled photographer! Filming and editing on the other
hand is something I have experience in and having a tripod would be very handy
- especially as I’m filming a documentary for my dissertation (eeeee
exciting!).
2. Clarisonic Mia 2 Sonic Skin Cleansing System: I suffer from those horrid under skin spots and I’m
desperate to give the much talked about Clarisonic a go! This little brush
(effectively an electronic toothbrush for your face) has been raved about
online and I have been pondering whether to buy it for a while now. Have you
ever used a Clarisonic?
3. Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder (Diffused Light):
I have been lusting after
this pot of pressed powder for too long! It has been on countless wish lists
and I’m still yet to get my hands on one.
4. Kurt Geiger Fold Over Handbag (Black): I love, love, LOVE bags - I am most defiantly a bag
girl! And this classic leather number from Mr Geiger would be a
much-appreciated addition to my collection. Perfect for a night out and
you can’t go wrong with black and gold.
5. Hunter Wellies (Black): My current wellies are literally falling apart! I have
had them for years and my concern is that if we are expecting uber amounts of
snow here in the UK this winter, I need to be prepared... and prepared in
style! Classic black hunter wellies are the way forward.
6. Origins Mask Marvels Gift Set: I own one product from Origins and I’m thoroughly
enjoying it (review coming soon). But the products I hear and read most about
from Origins is their face masks, apparently they are pretty damn good! So who
wouldn't want a gift set of their top three masks.
7. Chanel Chance Perfume: I have got through four of bottles of this perfume and
I haven't repurchased it in a long time, as it is a little on the pricey side -
but this perfume smells divine! It has to be one of my all time favorite
perfumes.
8. Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual: I've been after this book for a while now. It is often
spoken about in the beauty blogging world and I like a good read and I love all
things makeup... so this is just what I’m after!
9. Clothes: As I mentioned I’m very much
a bag lover (hoarder) and my wardrobe is a little unloved! Some High Waist Disco Pants would be
great for this time of year and would go nicely with this Topshop Check Shirt – which I love! I
have had my eye on this Leather Skirt from ASOS and think it
would look great worn with a long knit jumper and boots. Speaking of jumpers, I
recently bought this J.D.Y Roll Neck Jumper from ASOS only to
be told that it was unfortunately out of stock and it is now back in stock –
typical! To keep warm I love this Zara Jacket! And lastly, a festive dress
from Topshop Catalina Dress, which would look
lovely, teamed with the Kurt
Geiger bag.
10. Kate Spade Purse: I love a nice purse, however
my much-loved Marc Jacobs purse is looking a little worse for wear (insert sad
face here) and Kate Spade has some lovely leather purses. I’m aware that there
is a Kate Spade shop in Bicester Village, so I might just have to pick one up
there! If you want to read more about Bicester Village click here.
11. Allure Magazine Subscription: I have bought a couple of
editions of this American beauty magazine and I have really enjoyed them. I’m
always buying magazines (I must spend a fortune!) a subscription is much
needed! What magazines do you buy?
12. Oliver Bonas Alphabet Make Up Bag: This make-up bag is super
cute and I have had enough of rummaging around in the bottom of my bag for my
lippy and concealer. Oliver Bonas is a great online shop, they also sell beauty
products its worth a look.
14. I have been very good recently when it comes to
buying facial products and I’m finally at the end of cleanser and toner. Clarins Gentle Exfoliator Brightening Toner and
REN ClearCalm 3 Clarifying Clay Cleanser would
be a perfect replacement. Im also in desperate need of some brush cleanser for spot cleaning! I keep picking up what I think is a clean brush and blending all sorts of colours onto my lids (nightmare!).
15. As I’m a beauty addict no wish list would be
complete without a few make-up products! Charlotte Tilbury a very successful
and talented make-up artist released her own make-up line this year and let’s
be honest I would happily have anything from the range, but the one product in
particular that I have my eye on is the Charlotte Tilbury Bar Of Gold Highlighter. I
would love to own Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder I’ve been
lusting after this item after hearing and reading Vivianna from Vivianna Does
Makeup rave about it, my makeup collection is in need of a good sculpting
powder and I might as well try the best of the best! Lastly this wouldn’t be a wish
list without a couple of lipsticks! I love Mac Fanfare/Plumful Lipstick both shades are
beautiful and MAC lipsticks are yet to disappoint me.
16. Zara Messenger Bag With Zips: That’s right another bag! But this black number
from Zara is more of an every day bag. I’m currently using my Vanilla Paris bag
daily and as much as I love it, I need to get a casual bag to replace it before
it gets ruined… (I’m such a bagaholic!).
17. Diptyque Mini Scented Candle (Baies): Now I’m not a candle snob what’s so ever, but I’m
curious to see what all the hype is about when it comes to Diptype candles.
Baies is a bestseller and the candle that I’m currently burning (from IKEA)
needs an upgrade.
Whats on your Christmas list this year?Emily
