Hi guys,
I hope you all
had a great Christmas with your loved ones. I went to my mums this year for
Christmas dinner and will see Liam’s family when he comes back home from work.
I felt a little sad as I woke up alone which I’m not used to. We have spent
every Christmas Day together since we met each other. But I don’t have it as
bad as him I suppose, he is stuck in the middle of the ocean with his rig mate’s
ha-ha.
I got up
showered, dressed, put my glam face on and headed on over to my mums. It was a
full house as my auntie, uncle and niece were all there. It was mayhem but
bloody fun! By the end of the night, my belly was full, I hate chocolate all
over my face and I was curled up on the sofa watching some Christmas movies
before we had a bit of a party.
I thought I
would ease myself back into blogging today and as I was tagged by the lovely Alina from Beauty
With Charm to take part in this tag, I decided to do this. I don’t
usually get a lot of me time, I put some time by for a pamper night a few times
a week but as far as sitting down and chilling out by myself, it’s not going to
happen.
1. What do you watch or read during “me-time”?
I know I
should say blogs but sometimes I need to turn everything off, curl up on the
sofa and pop on Netflix or a good box set. I normally reach for Sex in the
City, Secret Diary of a Call Girl, Criminal Minds, Gilmore Girls or Grey’s
Anatomy.
2. What do you wear during “me-time”?
Pyjamas, an
oversized cardigan or jumper and my slipper socks!
3. What are your “me-time” beauty products?
I just put
together my ultimate pamper night here
so you can see exactly what I use when I want some me time.
4. Current favourite nail polish?
I have been
wearing acrylics recently and using shellac polish so nothing really comes to
mind at the moment.
5. What do you eat or drink during me-time?
A lovely warm
herbal/detox tea such as a Green Tea with Cranberry, Dr Stuarts Detox Tea or Spiced
Apple and Cranberry. I also love a hot chocolate with almond milk, whipped
cream and marshmallows but if it has been a rough day then I grab a red wine.
6. Current favourite candle?
I’m all about
the Lily Flame candles at
the moment and I have been burning Ho! Ho! Ho! every night for the past couple
of weeks, it just fills my whole living room and makes it seem like Christmas every
day.
7. Do you ever have outdoor “me-time”?
No, not at
all, home is the only me time I’m talking about!
8. Would you ever go see a movie alone?
Yeah if it was
during the week and I bored then I would head in to my local cinema.
9. Favourite online shop?
Without
hesitation it would have to be Selfridges.
They have everything a girl can want and always have exclusive brands in their
beauty section which I love.
10. Anything to add? What else do you do during me-time?
I normally do
laundry, I know it may seem weird but I find it very soothing. I love loading
the washing machine and hanging everything up. I always reach for a book but I
have been reading college materials recently which isn’t the same. I also read
blogs to find out what everyone is loving and what they are doing.
I tag the
following:
Ellis from Ellis Tuesday
Gemma at A Day In
The Life
Carolin at Lunch
Time Adventures
That sucks you weren't able to spend Christmas with your other half, hopefully you will have some nice time off together when he is back! I loved reading this, so similar to me :D x
