Stocking Fillers For Her!


 

Hey guys,

For my stocking filler gift guide I am going to do the same categories as the original but as small as I can get the price- at least under a tenner!




Sporty: when you do sport, you drink more water so here is a decent size water bottle for just £2! You could obviously buy a more expensive one but I am trying to find everything for the best price!      Bottle                        





Ceramic Mug with Biscuit PocketCaffeine-aholic: This is an amazing mug! It has a biscuit pocket so you can sit there drinking your tea and then dip in a nice rich tea. Just imaging it makes my mouth water! I am actually trying to persuade my mum that this is a good idea. It only costs £8 and may not be safe in a stocking now that I think about it...
Mug







Yankee Candle Gift Boxes VotivesCandle-freak: This costs £2.99 and is just a gift box with a candle inside it. This candle is Christmas eve by Yankee Candle and it smells lush! This is a perfect stocking filler as the candle is small so will not take up too much room. This candle is amazing and great to light during December!

Collection The smokey Eye PaletteMake-Up Lover: I have chosen this little palette from Collection 2000. Everyone knows their famous concealer so I have hope for this palette! It costs £4.19 and has 8 different colours in it! If you think that is a good deal then I don't know what is! There are some lighter colours as well as dark colours to create a great smokey eye!
Smokey Eye Set







Ted Baker Sweet Treat Purse Spray Polly 10mlFragrance: This is my favourite one. Others include Cate and Vida which also smell amazing! They are 10ml perfumes so really small but perfect for Secret Santa or just a little stocking filler. The fragrance notes are as followed: Top: Mandarin, Red Berries, Peach. Middle: Jasmine, Honeysuckle. Base: Vanilla, Amber, Patchouli, White Musk
Perfume








Cream Penguin Clip Frame Purse  | New LookFashionista: Here is the cutest purse I have ever seen! New Look have done several Christmas clip-purses. There are the penguin, the reindeer and Christmas pudding as far as I know. This purse costs £3.99. It is a perfect stocking filler for any woman. I know I would love a Christmas purse!

Baylis & Harding Beauticology Mini Toiletry TrioBeauty-Junkie: I am currently using Baylis and Harding for my shower gel and it is amazing! The beauticology range is sweeter and cheaper so I think it is better! This set includes a gingerbread body wash, cranberry body wash and a strawberry soap! The set retails at £5 so is again a perfect stocking filler!
Baylis and Harding Trio






The Pointless Book: Started by Alfie Deyes, Finished by YouBookworm: I couldn't help but choose the Pointless Book. I am hoping for this for Christmas because it is like another Wreck My Journal. It only costs £6.75 which is amazing for a book and as it is a paperback, it can easily fit inside a stocking. This is also amazing if you are shopping on a tight budget this year!

Christmas Gift Guide For Him


Hey guys,

Shock-horror, I am not a boy! However, I am really close with my brother and I have a few ideas for when you are stuck on what to buy a guy!

Jack Wills Men's Gym Ready Essentials Toiletries and Bag



Sporty: Just like with her, Jack Wills have another big sports gift including a big gym bag, a bottle, shower-gel, body spray and shampoo. All for £45! This gift isn't in blue and pink but a gorgeous navy and red. The link is for the Boot store but I am sure you can get it at the Jack Wills store as well :)
Gym Bag



Red Novelty Santa Suit Hoody
 


Joker: This jumper from next is amazing! Not only will it keep you warm but it looks great in the process! Christmas is the only time of year that people can get away with crazy looking jumpers! This one is my personal favourite for men and retails for £28 which may be a tad pricey but you could probably find another that you like which is cheaper if you put the effort in :)
Jumper





Ferrari Black Eau de Toilette 75ml


Fragrance: I adore this cologne and it is on my Brother's Christmas list this year as he has almost ran out of the one he is using! If you use this link as well you can get money off. It usually costs £28 but it costs £14.99 at Boots currently and every penny counts when it gets closer to Christmas!
Ferrari Black







Nando's The Magnificent SevenFoodie: Everyone loves Nando's! In this set, they have & different sauces for just £20! It includes: Lemon and Herb, Mild, Medium, Hot, Extra Hot, Extra-Extra Hot and Garlic! My favourite has to be The Extra-Extra Hot because I love spicy food! I don't think it is too spicy to eat either. These sauces can spice up any meal that just seem boring now! They really are magnificent!
Nando's






Top Gear Magazine SubscriptionCar Addict:  My family love cars but I never know what they are talking about! Top Gear is the most well-known programme for cars and they have a magazine. I know my Grandad would love to get the magazine straight to his door without having to move a muscle and £40 isn't a bad price either! However, this gift idea is only available in the UK or Ireland, sorry!
Top Gear







Ted Baker Ted's Grooming Room: The OvernighterGroomed: This is a perfect set for men that like to look their best! I love Ted Baker so I have faith that this set will be amazing! It costs £35 and includes the following products: a full-size face wash  (very handy) a mini shave gel (perfect for New Years) a full-size post shave balm ( goes with the shave gel I guess?) a shave towel (looks soft) a comb (no-one likes messy hair!) and a beautiful wash bag!
Ted Baker set!






I found it a lot harder to do the Men's gift guide so apologies if it isn't very good!

Christmas Gift Guide For Her

Hey guys,

First of all, if you know me in real life then DO NOT READ THIS! It may include an idea for you so it is just safer if you don't!

I have made categories of different personality types so it makes it easier for you to decide what gift you want to get for them. The prices differ a lot but I will be doing another for men and maybe stocking filler/on a budget depending on what I can find!
Jack Wills Ladies Hope Cove Gym Bag with Toiletries




Sporty: this is the jack wills ladies hope cove gym bag with toiletries. it costs£65 so it may be rather expensive however it is a beautiful gym bag
complete with some toiletries from Jack Wills as they have quite a large selection this year at Boots and probably in their own store too. in this one, they have the majority of their range accompanied by a water bottle. It is (of course) in the famous blue and oink colours and so worth checking out! Jack Wills gym bag





Twinings 9 Tea Selection - 45 teabags

Caffeine-aholic! Here is a twinning's set which is beautifully presented in a lovely box. it includes 9 different types of tea and 5 bags of each totalling 45 tea-bags for a tenner! There is the classic English breakfast, my favourite Assam and the famous earl grey. There is also calming tea, energy tea and a green tea. This is no ordinary green tea though- it is orange and lotus flower. it is so amazing! It is my favourite green tea and I discovered it through this gift set which I received last year!
Twinnings tea!




Yankee Candle 6 Christmas Votive Collection

Candle Freak- I a personally obsessed with candles! Here is a set of 6 different Christmas smelling Yankee candle votives! It includes my personal favourite Christmas cookie as I am obsessed with sweet smelling candles and that is my pick of burning over December! it includes these overs as well: Snow In Love, Christmas Eve, Red Apple Wreath, Season of Peace and Cranberry Ice. This is a gift that no candle freak will be able to resist!
Yankee Candles



Soap & Glory™ CRAZY SEXY KOHL™ Gift Set


make-up Lover: I am not that creative with naming the people like this brand are! I have chosen Soap and Glory eyeliner set because this is actually something at the top of my list! Soap ad Glory are amazing with their bath and body stuff and now they have exceeded my expectations of their make-up range! They have some really amazing products out! In this set, you get 4 of their eyeliners in black (everyone needs one) brown (suttle but gorgeous) and 2 more daring colours: green and blue but they still look gorgeous and if they love make-up, they would love to perhaps experiment with some different colours!
Soap and Glory
Fragrance Sampler Gift Set - Our favourite fragrances for her


Fragrance/ has everything: this is a gift that you can buy the girl that has everything! It is a perfume set full of miniatures! You buy this gift set for her which includes a bunch of amazing mixture perfumes then the receiver smells them all and tries them out before choosing their favourite and getting a full size of it! It costs £40 but for all these samples and a full size, you are probably saving money! My favourite one of the 8 is Jimmy Choo but you decide!
Perfume


New Look Santa Jumper

Fashionista: Novelty Christmas sweaters are so cute but people that are crazy about fashion do not tend to wear them! I personally adore this one from asos but I have linked the Christmas jumper part of asos anyway so you can check out some of the other ones they have online. this one retails for £25 which I think is reasonable. you can obviously get them a fashion book but I feel like this is something the wouldn't buy for themselves but would wear! ASOS jumpers





Sanctuary Bathtime Bliss Gift
Beauty Junkie- this is a lovely set from sanctuary called Bath time Bliss. Once again, the packaging is amazing but the products are better! This set includes 2 candles which are a must-have for relaxing baths as well as a reed diffuser which are amazing for keeping a smell going around your house if you have young children. it also includes a body lotion and a luxury bath float. I love the sanctuary signature scent too!
Bathtime Bliss






Sharp Objects, Dark Places and Gone GirlBookworm: This is a set of 3 books which Waterstones are doing this year but only online. There are ones for children as well but I have chosen these Gillian Flynn books to include as they have been huge this year -especially Gone Girl. I haven't read these myself but the reviews look great. I am currently reading the Divergent series myself.the book trios

My Teeth

Hey guys,

I am quite nervous about posting this so please be kind! I need braces so I was put on a waiting list to get them and then I went to get my pictures and x-rays done. First, I had to get pictures done where I stood next to a wall and had to smile with my mouth open just to go on my profile. I then had these weird holder-things put in my mouth and more pictures taken. Then, I had this disgusting berry plastesine thing put in my mouth to form a mould which took a tug to get out which I was slightly scared about not going to lie. I also have the worst gag reflexes so I gagged a bit but nothing that major. Then I was put n a room by myself to get these x-rays done. I had one from the front then from the side. On the x-rays were these tiny dots in my gums which the orthodontist thought was extra teeth-type things so a letter was put through to the dentist.

At the dentist, I had extra x-rays done to find out more about these mysterious white spots. The results said that these were in fact extra teeth! A letter has been put through to the hospital in order for me to get an operation to remove these extra teeth so hopefully I will be finding out soon more about that! Here is a picture of my teeth just to show you why I need braces! The front lot stick out too much, the bottom ones point inwards and there is a massive gap!
