Instagram Post #1

After seeing hundreds of these posts dotted around the net I thought I would jump on the bandwagon and make my own. So here's the pictures my Instgram has been blessed with recently.


I'll probably sound extremely spoilt here but the first 3 pictures are of things my boyfriend has bought me recently, when we were out looking for Christmas presents he spotted this jumper in New Look, he knows I love cats so he bought it without hesitation despite me telling him not too! I was in need of a new candle and he suprised me one day by bringing me these Yankee Candles, He told me he was getting me a replacement Glade candle so this was a fantastic suprise :D And lastly I went out for a meal one night with my friend and when I got back he had bought me these gorgeous pink fluffy slipper boots from Tesco! They are so lovely and warm! They've been keeping my usual freezing cold feet toasty since the day I got them! I wasn't sure weather or not to include a pole dancing picture in this post, but seeing as I'm thinking of writing a whole post dedicated to this misunderstood sport I thought I would ease it in gently, this is a rather advanced move called 'The Superman' it requires a lot of strength and hurts like hell the first few times you try it and believe me there is nothing sexy about doing this move! Next up we have recently had an American Sweet Stall open in our local market, I couldn't resist buying some Lucky Charms, I absolutely love them. And finally three Christmassy pictures, I love these glittery reindeer's from Asda that I bought for my Christmas tree about 3 or 4 years ago, they are my favourite decorations EVER. My Make Up area in my bedroom decorated with lights and a small Christmas tree. And lastly my black tree that's in the corner of my bedroom.


Hope you enjoyed this sneak peak into my life. More to come in the future I'm sure!
Much Love Gemma xo.

Tag: Christmas :)

Another Tag for you all, thanks to the lovely Chloe from Chloes Way.

found this cute picture on google.

Whats your favourite thing about Christmas?
I love spending so much time with my family over Christmas, although its not the same now without my mam these days :( I love pretty much everything about Christmas really, the songs, the lights, the cute decorations, the wonderful smelling candles that come out at this time of year, the Christmas drinks in Costa etc. And I would be lying if I didn't say I love all the presents too.

Whats you favourite makeup look for the season?
Glitter! I just love glitter at Christmas, glitter eyes and nails :D

Real tree or fake tree?
I've honestly never had a real tree but I love the look of them! When I get my own place I think I'll have to try one because they are beautiful and apparently make your house smell lovely too?! For now I have a black artificial tree in my bedroom and a fibre optic downstairs!

the tree in my room last year

Giving presents or receiving presents?
Of course I love receiving presents but I also enjoy going out buying things for people as well. I love Christmas shopping :) So probably both as much as the others.

Do you open your presents Christmas morning or evening?
Morning. We have had a tradition in my house for as long as I can remember. Me and my brother would go downstairs and open all the presents from under the tree off our parents friends and anyone else that would leave them there, Then through out the day family would visit and bring their presents to us :)

Handmade Christmas cards or bought?
Handmade are lovely but I don't have the time to make them, I just buy them when i get the chance. Think one day I will challenge myself and make them all by hand.

Whats your favourite Christmas Movie?
Honestly? I haven't really seen that many so I don't know.


christmas jumper my boyfriend bought me yesterday! isn't it adorable?!

Christmas is my favourite time of year so I really enjoyed doing this Tag. I'd love to see others so please let me know if you do it :)
Much Love Gemma xo.

My Fashion Wishlist

Hello Again,
Today Im going to be continuing with my 'Wishlist' series. This time showing you a few of the Fashion bits and pieces that I really want! I could have gone on forever with this but I've cut it down to 5 items. Enjoy!

1. ForeverUnique Shimmer Dress, this dress isnt actually avaliable on the website anymore (I've included the link to the site though just incase you want to check it out, they have the most stunning clothes!) but I thought I would include it anyway because it is beautiful and from the minute I saw Lucy Mecklenburgh wearing it on The Only Way Is Essex a few months ago I fell in love with it. However it had a hefty pricetag of around £360 so there was no way I was ever going to order it, but its without a doubt at the top of my wishlist. If only I was rich and it was still avaliable :(
2. River Island Boots, one thing you dont know about me is this - I am obsessed with studs! So these boots are literally perfect for me! I love wearing military style boots around this time of year and I would love to own this pair from River Island (military/biker boots with studs? perfect!) but at £75 I cant afford them right now, maybe in a month or so they'll be mine!
3. Mulberry Bayswater Bag, I love this bag so much, Ive been wanting a new bag for a long time now (Im currently using a Pauls Boutique Tilly Twister bag) and Ive been eyeing up this Mulberry bag for sometime. Ive always wanted a designer handbag but I just can not afford it! But if I ever have the money I think a Mulberry is what I'll get, they are such iconic beautiful bags and I would love to own one.
4. Michael Kors Watch, again Ive been looking for the perfect watch for some time now,and since stumbling across Michael Kors I have fell in love with Rose Gold. Ive always wanted a watch with diamonds on it and this one is amazing. Rose Gold with Diamonds! Win. But the pricetag is too high right now
5. New Look Jacket, ahhhh this is amazing. Its a beautiful quilted jacket with studs on that I ran over to a few weeks ago in New Look. I absolutly adore it. Only thing is its getting extremly cold where I live and it is just not practical! Plus I have a leather jacket extremly similar to this, so is there any point in buying it?! My answer is yes I need this jacket in my life. And I have a suspicion I will be purchasing it very soon. I just dont think I can miss out on it!
So there we have it another Wishlist post done and dusted. I love all of these items and would love to own them all! I have a sneaky feeling that I will be purchasing a few of them sometime in the near future but the others will unfortunelty just stay as a dream!
What do you think of my top 5 picks? And what are yours? I would love to find out.
Much Love Gemma xo.
