Sephora Value Sets - Blogmas Day 11.

This post should really be titled "The Best Thing on Earth", but I thought that might be pushing it a bit. Today I'm going to be talking about Sephora's Value Sets. They're basically sets of make-up, brushes, perfume... anything in the world of beauty, for just a fraction of the price. Some have a value of up to $500 dollars, available for just $60. A perfect Christmas gift, right?! Here are my favourite picks...

Make Up For Ever - HD Complexion Starter Kit
$79 (Value: $114)

Christmas Gift Guide for Friends - Blogmas Day 10.

I have quite a few friend groups, so my friends and I don't tend to go all out for Christmas. My friends in England don't even get anything as it would just be too expensive. Saoirse, Alba and I set a budget and then normally three of us will buy the other something. With my friendship group at school, which includes eight of us, it wouldn't make sense to go all out as we'd probably end up in debt. Instead, we do small token presents. Here's what I plan on getting them this year...

November Best Dressed - Blogmas Day 9.

So, I've kind of just realised that this will be my final monthly best dressed post of the year. Can someone please explain to me how there's only three weeks left until 2015, because I do not understand. There weren't that many great looks throughout the month of November if I'm honest, so we're not exactly going out with a bang. There were some great ones but most of the looks I've included today I've liked, but haven't absolutely loved.

Christmas Gift Guide For Siblings - Blogmas Day 8.

Just a few days ago, I did a Christmas Gift Guide for Mums, and now it's time for the next edition - siblings. I have both a brother and a sister so I've hopefully been able to include something for everyone in here. If not, then please leave your suggestions in the comments.

January-June 2014 Memories - Blogmas Day 7.

During the few brief days that I did Blogmas last year, I wrote about my favourite memories from 2013, first from January to June and then from July to December. They were definitely some of my favourite posts to write, as it was nice to look back on the year. This is why I find it so important to document experiences, no matter how small they are. It was nice to go back and find photos from days that I'd completely forgotten about, so it only made sense to do the same thing this year. Here are my favourite memories from January - June 2014.

Winter Essentials - Blogmas Day 6.

I can't believe that I've now done Seasonal Essentials for both Summer and Autumn now! Time really is going by so fast. I love all seasons; when it's Summer, I want Winter and when it's Winter, I want Summer. One of the main reasons I love Winter is obviously Christmas. There's nothing quite like the lead up to it. I doubt I'll ever get sick of it. But enough about that, here's my Winter essentials...

Flashback Friday #12 - Blogmas Day 5.

It's official, this is the penultimate edition of Flashback Friday! Admittedly, I have really enjoyed writing these posts, so this feature might just make a return in 2015 but I guess only time will tell! You do all seem to be enjoying it though, so that's nice.

Christmas Gift Guide For Mums - Blogmas Day 4.

I know a few bloggers/vloggers do this, so I thought I'd also jump on the bandwagon and do a Christmas Gift Guide, to be published throughout December, starting with Mums. Not to toot my own horn or anything, but I'm pretty awesome at buying presents, especially when it comes to my Mam. After all, I'm probably one of very few people in the world to buy their Mam a wheelbarrow for Christmas. I've had this year's presents picked out since about June and ended up picking so many that's there's enough left for next year (and possibly the year after that...). Don't worry, though, there's no wheelbarrows to be seen here.

Christmas List - Blogmas Day 3.

I love everything about Christmas. The decorations, the food, the general spirit of it all and, of course, who can forget the presents? They don't have to be big and expensive, I just love the thought of waking up on Christmas morning and having something to open. Here's some items that are on my Christmas List this year, which may or may not have been written since early November...

Blogmas - Blogmas Day 2.

The title of this blog post is pretty self-explanatory: I've decided to do blogmas! I won't be taking photos or filming my day like those that plan on doing Vlogmas will be doing. Instead, I'll be posting my Christmas list, recipes, gift ideas for specific people and much more up until the 24th of December.
