Clothes show live

Hey Guys, so yesterday I went to Clothes Show Live, in Birmingham and It was amazing. I picked up lots of brilliant bargains.

To start with I got a £1 goodie bag from cosmopolitan and company which included a packet of jelly beans, a Lindt chocolate, a lemon and lime mint drink (which I didn't like very much!), a sample of Hugo boss, a toilet roll (you never know when you might need that :/ ), some packets of coffee, an 8ml Rimmel foundation, some leaflets, a Cosmo magazine and a company magazine! All for £1 which is a rather good deal.

Then I brought a so Susan goodie bag which was £5 for 4 make up items that have the cutest packaging ever..

After that, I saw this little peter pan collared shirt by Edy and Bridge, I could have bought everything there I swear.

Then I bought the £5 goodie bag from so...? and it included a big dry shampoo, a little make up bag, a mini dry shampoo, then a body spray and perfume.

Overall, I thought I was well restrained because I didn't buy any of the Barry M or Models Own goodie bags because, I went to the Clothes Show last year and the products looked the same!

I hope you all had a great day, let me know if you went to the Clothes Show?

5 Tips for a Stress Free Christmas

Is the idea of Christmas stressing you out?...well, here are a few tips to help you have a stress free time:

1. Think ahead

Know how many days you have left and plan different tasks to do each day, so that it's not a last minute panic.

2. Ask people what they want

Don't waste hours thinking of what to buy people, it's easier just to ask!

3. Shopping Online

Shopping from home avoids the crazy Christmas crowds and can save money at the same time.

4. Don't look for perfection

Nothing ever will be perfect so just relax and enjoy the Christmas spirit.

5. Make it fun

You can have so much fun making your own tree decorations, baking and watching Christmas movies.

This is what our Christmas Tree looks like this year

Lots of love

Easy Decorations for Gingerbread

Oh hey there, I hope you're enjoying Blogmas so far! The other day I baked some gingerbread and decided to finish them off today by decorating them in three easy and fast ways.

You will need:

Gingerbread (homemade or bought)

To make a small batch of icing you will need:

1 large egg white

230g of icing sugar

1tsp lemon juice

food colouring (various)

Suggested decorations:

Smarties, chocolate drops and sprinkles

Biscuit Frosting

1. Beat together the egg white, the lemon juice and the icing sugar until the frosting is stiff (like meringue).

2. Then place the icing into a zip lock bag and push the mixture to one corner. Snip a very small triangle off the bag.

3. Next pipe a border around the outside edges of the biscuit.

4. Let it dry

Here are the three designs:

Unique Advent Calendar

Hello there, I hope your having a super day! So, for the past few years I have become more and more annoyed with the usual cheap chocolate advent calendars (which are great don't get me wrong who doesn't like eating chocolate everyday) but I thought to myself what if you could make one?  My mum and I looked on Pintrest and Tumblr for inspiration. In the end my mum came up with the idea of using an old pin board for the base and used other around the household materials for the rest. However, for the fillings she bought little chocolates and made little decorations to put on the tree. I don't know what else she has in store for the rest of advent, she wanted to keep it a surprise. I'm sure it's going to be great!

Here is what it looks like...
