Everyone has a few things they wish for over Christmas, don't they? What I have done is I made an online wishlist at Wishlistr, it is super easy and you can add links to everything you want! I have found that this way, I can give the link to my Mother as she was stuck for what to get me for Christmas! I also will find it satisfying to cross things off if they're received as gifts or if I buy them.
Samsung Galaxy S5
I have had a Blackberry for two years now and it just doesn't do what I would like it to do! This phone is my dream phone as I just think it is stunning and does everything you could want and more! I know this is a rather expensive presents and I've never asked for something so expensive before which is why I do not expect I would get one. Though. if I open this present, I may cry...
A new coat
There are so many coats I want!! From Black to Camel to Grey... I want them all! I really like the 'Coocoon' style at the moment, along with the 'Boyfriend' and maybe throw in a biker jacket, eh? I am most likely not going to get any, so in the sales I'm going to have to pick up a couple aren't I?
Chunky Heeled Chelsea Boots
Chelsea Boots go with almost everything and are a staple I do not currently own, as I love chunky heels, then it makes sense to mix the two together... These two make the perfect pair of boots and Newlook sell them for as little as £24.99!
Onesie
I have never owned a onesie and I feel deprived, there are so many I want but this one is just adorable! I always get Pyjamas in my stocking so maybe I'll get a onesie this year!
Real Techniques Brushes
I currently only own two, I want to build my collection up, I want the Powder Brush, Core Collection, Eye Starter Kit and the Lash-Brow Groomer. After that I can start to get more and more until I have them all, Wooo!
MUA LUXE
I have to say, their products aren't exactly renowned for their quality, but I have heard great things about the LUXEs. With high staying-power and pigmentation, leaving a matte finish they're everything I've been looking for in life. For £3, you can't go wrong, can you? I may buy myself the whole collection as there isn't a shade I don't like!
So they're just a few of the things, some on my Wishlistr, some not!
What are you hoping for this year?

BLOGMAS DAY ONE: CHRISTMAS PLAYLIST
Monday, 1 December 2014
So everybody has the songs that are incredibly over played without noticing, or they loathe at this time of year. Most, intact, all Christmas songs are over-played and you can walk from store to store and hear the same song ten times in different stores. I have my personal favourites and Michael Buble tends to occur an awful lot in my playlist, so here goes nothing.
Michael Buble 'Christmas' (Baby Please Come Home)
This has to be one of the greatest songs to come on in the car at Christmas. I have to admit, when it does, I erupt into song, much to my Father's discontent.
The Pogues feat. Kirsty MacColl 'Fairytale Of New York'
Oh my, this song, this song has always been my all time favourite Christmas song. It's just so lovely to listen to, it almost makes you unwilling to sing along, which is rare for me!
Bing Crosby 'White Christmas'
Isn't this song just marvellous? It makes you feel all warm and cosy inside and this is definitely a great one to sing to. I'm rather amused by how low my own voice can get to...
Gabriella Cilmi 'Warm This Winter'
Now this brings back memories! I don't know whether any of you reading this read any of our Blogmas' from last year? We both sang this at the Christmas Concert held at out school. This song is so lovely and cosy and her voice is amazing!
Band Aid 'Do They Know It's Christmas Time'
Yet another that brings back memories! So, a few years ago I had a solo singing this and we had to perform it in front of all of the school eating their Christmas Dinners... Turns out I get stage fright in front of people I know, so mid-line I froze and erupted into tears... Not my brightest move I have to admit. The reason I chose the original over the new one is I think you cannot beat this version, for me I think that the sound of George Michael (and other of course) this really makes Christmas and I doubt that will change anytime soon! But y'know, hats off to the other versions!
Andy Williams 'It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year'
Well isn't this just amazing? This song always makes me smile and happy, it's just one of those songs! It gets you ready for Christmas and it's just a classic.
Bing Crosby 'It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas'
This song is so cute! I love it, and I guess that's why it's on here? Obviously.
Shaking Stevens 'Merry Christmas Everybody'
Now this just screams Christmas, and Shaking Stevens? Well, need I say more? I think not.
Slade 'I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday'
I did used to want it to be Christmas everyday, until I realised the charm would wear off and it would be very expensive, also, what would you look forward to then???
Wham 'Last Christmas'
This song is so fab! It's great sing really loudly to, and it's one of those you can't sound too bad with, so perfect for me! Woopwoop!
So they were my top 10 Christmas songs! What are yours?
I have also created a Spotify playlist of all of these songs and I'll leave the link below if you want it, I will most likely keep adding to it as the month progresses...

OUR FIRST BIRTHDAY
Sunday, 21 September 2014
It has come to our attention that we are now one! Our first post was one year old as of yesterday. We just want to say a huge thank you to those of you that accidentally found yourself on this site!
In the past year we feel guilty that we haven't put a lot of effort into this blog... there's so many posts we've planned to do but haven't gotten around to do them and we both feel bad for that... We have had nearly 2.6k mistakes on here and we appreciate every single one of them!
We have come so far in the last year and have improved a lot! We have gotten better looking, if we do say so ourselves haha. That is pretty much down to puberty, and we are very grateful that it worked in our favour there! There's also more along the way (hopefully) so we shall mature more!
Our blogging skills have improved MASSIVELY, we now feel like we write posts that we'd read ourselves, and posts we can be proud of, just not enough of them! We haven't done a haul or beauty one lately though... Next on the list!
Our fashion sense has improved... Oh my goodness, I cannot stress this one enough! So, our fashion sense isn't as good as it could be (bc we're poor woops) but it most certainly has improved a lot in a year! Woohoo!
Our lives... Okay, so I know this sounds weird, but it genuinely has! We're much more interesting now (although, still not very) and we get up to much more nowadays! We have also both gained Nieces, just four days apart! So, that was exciting!
Music taste, last year, I was into all that crappy chart stuff, and since then I've been introduced to the likes of The Pretty Reckless, Arctic Monkeys, Blink 182, Bring Me The Horizon, Asking Alexandria, Pierce The Veil, You Me At Six, etc... The list could go on, a lot! I feel, really passionate about my music taste now, whereas before I was just drifting over the charts, and not really getting into the music like now!
There are plenty of other ways that we have improved, I liked writing this post as we both are guilty of dwelling on what we're not, rather than looking back on how far we are along into becoming what we want to be! I advise all of you out there, just to look back on you a year ago, and compare yourself!
If you are reading this, then we genuinely love you so much! Thank-you, and if you've been here from the start, or even just a couple weeks, wow... We can't see why any of you would want to but sure!
If you're still reading, then we want you to write one comment, just saying where you are from and how far you've come in the past year and/or what sorts of posts you would like to see!
Thank-you ever so much, and a happy belated birthday to Love And Other Ramblings
