What I Got for Christmas 2012!

4 Jan

This blog post is simply an enthusiastic show of gratitude for the wonderful gifts my nearest and dearest chose to give me this Christmas. Their love and support every single day are a million times more fantastic than any presents. But this year they totally went out of their way and got me The Most Awesome Presents Ever. (The beautiful bauble from the image above is from The Secret Rose.)

Muse’s new album. I’ve already listened to The 2nd Law about 7 times already. Love love love.

An Accessorize necklace in the shape of a floral camera!

So cute.

Lovely packaging from Swarovski.

And inside: a really pretty pink pen with crystals!

My boyfriend gave me a woollen blanket. It’s the best.

So heavy, so soft, so purple. And made especially for me!

Moschino perfume!

My Secret Santa gift – a handmade (crocheted) infinity scarf. Such a pretty colour too – and it’s just the right length and width.

A hilariously cute fox/owl bag from a market in Southampton.

Rose water! I’ve been using this like crazy and it’s the best. So soothing and nice-smelling.

The best Lush bath bomb in the world. It smells SO GOOD and it’s just a fantastic bath bomb. So many colours and shimmery bits! And it’s in the shape of a present! And when you shake it, it RATTLES, like an ACTUAL  present. Too much.

Taboo! Oh my, this was a big one. I can’t believe I own my own Taboo.

Yummy chocolate. Always.

A gorgeous summer dress from ASOS. (Similar, similar.)

A Christmas decoration! AND IT JANGLES.

Such a cute wooden monkey top.

An Accessorize bow ring which I would have never picked up for myself but haven’t stopped wearing it!

Essence perfume (so sweet and lovely – I’ve worn it a tonne already), and M&S chocolates!

And finally, my parents bought me a new Fossil watch. It took me aaages to choose it, but I finally chose the perfect one.
