THE BODYSHOP MEADOWHALL CHRISTMAS EVENT 2015

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas here in Sheffield and to celebrate The Bodyshop at the Meadowhall shopping centre invited us local bloggers to come and have a mooch about.

Christmas is my favourite time of year - My family and friends like to refer to me as "Elf" because as soon as November hits I am all things Christmassy - and I love nothing better than to nose around at the Christmas-ness of shops! So as you can imagine, I was pretty much in my element!

LUSH CHRISTMAS GIVEAWAY!

Hey guys! 

When I first started this blog just under 6 months ago I just wanted to jabber on about various bits and bobs in life that were just too long/complicated/not universally acceptable on Facebook - Not a lot has changed really (ha!) except for the amount of followers on Twitter. 

This week I reached 500 followers on Twitter and I was pretty damn chuffed with myself! 

So in celebration of this, I have put a few little festive goodies together to do a little giveaway and say a big thank you to everyone!

JOULES - DESIGN A WELLIE COMPETITION

As I'm slightly AWOL this week I thought I would do a quick post do tell everyone about this amazing little competition from Joules (you know, the really funky welly company!!)

STATIONARY HAUL - PAPERCHASE

This may be a little late off the mark - as everyone has already started their courses in September - but I'm going to be doing a course with work next week so I thought I best stock up on some stationary! And where else is would you go for cracking stationary...Paperchase!

SMASHBOX SHAPE MATTERS PALETTE - REVIEW

Hey everyone! It's been just over a week since I last blogged and an absolute age since I've done a beauty related post - partially because I've been too busy to do anything apart from walk the dog, cook the dinner and then sleep and also because the light is shocking and taking photo's in the week is just not happening!

After pining for the Smashbox Contour Kit for months I was getting ready to add it to my Christmas list - until this little beauty, the Smashbox Shape Matters palette was on offer in Boots. It contains the same highlight and contour as well as an additional 2 shades. It also has a selection of shadows and brow fillers.
