XX


Since getting home on Thursday I've been freezing among good company. Lots of catching up to do being done over food and drink, breathing out ice and watching it glitter in the wintry sun. Tomorrow I'm meeting up with Jazzy (you should go and enter her giveaway!) for more of the aforementioned food and drink, then I'm off to see The Waxwork (again. jeeze.) for a setlist which features Peanut Butter Wolf (who apparently is a real person).

This is what I received from family and friends (and myself!) for my birthday. This is by no means a "look what I've got and you haven't" kind of post, more of an "I'm currently sitting under a duvet in my PJs after getting in at 7 and you really don't want to see my face" one.

Cath Kidston weekend bag from my brother. Coco Chanel edp, lipstick, and mirror from my mum. Blue bead necklace from Beth. Alice in Wonderland necklace from Amy. Aubin and Wills stripe tee from myself(!). Watch chain from Sabby.

    I wholeheartedly approve of getting yourself birthday gifts! It all looks very lovely (and your carpet, is it, as well!), I'm in need of a bag myself but my brother never gets me such great gifts (or any, for that matter!) Have I mentioned how much I love your ombrรฉ hair? I'm going to get it dyed in February and you are pretty much my to go to example!

    The Virgin Suicides is such a dream, right? This one isn't as whimsical or ethereal (or all those fancy adjectives people like to use) but the story is pretty great so far and if you love 19th century novels it's definitely relatable :) Enjoy your break!- x

    I wish my mum would buy me chanel goods, I used to always get the cheaper alternatives to what I was after, so if this was me I'd be receiving momo canal for my birthday!

    Love your birthday presents, you can never have too many stripey tops! I'm not too bad at ice skating (I've been known to get into the middle on a few occasions) so I'm quite excited to go. I never used to like the XX but I'm really warming to them, this is one of my fave songs by them xxxx
