It is Christmas Eve Eve! I still have things I need to do before Christmas Day and things I want to do before this festive time is all over (the thought makes me want to cry so I won't think about that...)

The excitement of christmas is getting far to much for me so I thought I'd share my favourite Christmas songs with you! I pretty much love EVERY single christmas song. They all make me jump around the room with festive glee...

Happy, feel-good and makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Pretty sure this one is one of my dads favourites, it always makes me think of him, so Dad this ones for you!

If you don't love this song... I don't love you. That is all I have to say.

Bit of an unusual one, but I covered it with my brother a few years ago and I will always love it!

Not a traditional christmas song, as you can probably tell from the title, but it's happy and catchy as hell. 'Santa, you bitch. Didn't get a damn thing on my christmas list' haha!

Nothing better than a soppy bit of Wham!

Of course, there is Michael Buble's christmas album too, my favourites are 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' and 'Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)

If you're enjoying the christmassy songs & the John Lewis Christmas advert, have a look at mine and my housemates cover of Somewhere Only We Know - Keane/Lily Allen to get you in the festive mood!

What are your favourite christmas songs? :)

Hello!

Who doesn't love the John Lewis Christmas Advert? It's super cute and makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Me and my housemates loved the song from the advert, so recorded a cover of it.




We hope you like it. Maybe share it with your friends if you do? Christmas is all about sharing, right?


1st December 2013 - 7th December 2013

1. It's December! Therefore I can start playing christmas songs nonstop, I can wear christmas jumpers, eat loads of mince pies and just be as christmassy as possible whenever I can!

2. Buying Christmas presents for my loved ones. I love writing lists and being organised, planning what to buy each and every special person. Also, christmas hampers with homemade bits in are high on my list this year for presents for family, so browsing through blogs like Cider With Rosie & A Beautiful Mess has been lovely.

3. Having productive, yet lazy afternoons. Coffee in Caffe Nero and then a productive afternoon of me writing blog posts whilst Henry sorts out his band stuff. AND he's allowing me to listen to ONE christmas song... scrooooooge!

4. Getting the cutest reindeer stamp in my ticket en route back to Brighton on Monday.

5. Getting a free glass of champagne in L'occitane whilst christmas shopping!

6. I bought my first ever onesie... It's cute, christmassy and very cosy.

7. Making it on my uni end of term gig! Something like 300 bands auditioned, so I'm really greatful to have made it on! Get yourselves to Coalition in Brighton, Friday 13th for the gig!

8. Hearing my little brother say his one line from his Nativity play. He said it very very little enthusiasm, but it was super cute all the same.

9. Passing my first two uni assignments. Only 5% each, but every little counts!

10. Vanilla Chai tea. It's definitely a new favourite!

What made you happy this week? :) 
Hello!

I had the best few days celebrating my birthday with the people I love! Birthday morning started with presents and breakfast in bed (thank you housemates!) then a costa coffee black forrest hot chocolate with Henry. 

presents and cards!

Breakfast in bed. Lemon and Sugar Pancakes, Toast with Jam & Vanilla Chai Tea!

Black Forrest Hot Chocolate, mmm!

I picked up my my lovely best friend, Charlie, from the station. So lovely to have her here and to catch up on all the gossip!

Me and the lovely Henry.

I'll stop there with the photos from my night out. After getting VIP wristbands and free champagne at a club the photos got a lot worse... 

Despite a flat tyre and horrendous hangovers, we all made it home on friday! It was so lovely to be home and to see my family.

Spent that evening at a Christmassy Open Mic Night, a very good way to start the festive season (Which, by the way, I am VERY excited about!) 

I had an amazing few days and I got some very lovely presents which I'm sure might pop up in some vlogs or blog posts some time soon! I told you this post would be photo heavy, but a picture says 1000 words, right? 

What did you get up to this weekend?
