i heart nail polish

Looooving the Sublime Strawberry colour

Revlon has bought onto market the most delicious nail polishes ever (their new scented range). I bought Cotton Candy and Sublime Strawberry. Stunning colours and they smell delish (when dry). Other colours include Pretty in Papaya, Passion Fruit, Orange Pop, Beach & Ocean Breeze.

I have had a crush on the cocoa and hearts paintings by Jen Ramos from made by girl. They are so pretty & would love too lovely in my home!

How COOL are these Lancome beauty crackers from selfridges? So much better than the usual ones you get with silly gimiky toys. Wouldn't mind cracking one of these on Christmas! :)

I absolutely LOVE this time of year, I just love eeeverything about Christmas!
All the festivities leading up to the day, the pressi shopping & wrapping, Christmas music (yes, i love it) & decorations, putting up the tree, special family time, baking christmas cookies- its my little sister & my tradition, with her being 10 years younger than me we used to bake Father Christmas special cookies each year, we haven't given up this tradition, we now bake them for the family (will post this recipe soon- its delish!) And of course that warm, giddy feeling that Christmas brings.

29 sleeeeeps to go!

just ordered- julie & julia


Just ordered this book from kalahari.com (who are offering free delivery until the 30 Nov). I have been dying to read this book (before watching the movie) so cannot wait to get it.

If you looking for a great holiday read: "Julie and Julia is a true story of Julie who lives a boring and unsuccessful life. She decided to make her life worthy by cooking and blogging about Julia Child's recipes for 365 days. The story shows the life of the famous chef, Julia Child, her beginnings and way to success in 1950's as it intertwines to Julie's life at the present time and how Julia's life affects Julie's." Write up from here 

Sounds sweet doesn't it?
