Hello Everybody! Brrrrrr, it is freezing outside here in the UK, and winter is here to stay! It's such an odd feeling for the holidays to seem like they are finally here, because the last four years we have lived in a hot climate where Thanksgiving day was usually in the 70's and sunny. Christmas day was usually in the 50-60 degree range as well, and there was never any snow. I must admit it is nice being in a "normal" climate that actually has seasons, and the thought that we might have the chance to have a semi "white Christmas" is totally exciting for us!
I am slowly getting into the Christmas spirit as Thanksgiving approaches next week, and today I thought I would share with you some of the goodies I have bought over the past month! If you haven't gotten in the mood for Christmas time yet, hopefully this post will help you feel a little more festive!
Every year I always pick up a new pair of Christmas pajamas, and this year these are the ones I chose! I found them at my local Tesco. I especially love the pants, they are fleece and oh so cozy!
Anyone who has known me within the last year and a half or so, knows I have a rather new obsession with the Lush Cosmetics store. The bath ballistics and bubble bars are my absolute favorite things for a nice pamper evening and they always leave my skin smelling and feeling amazing after I have a good soak!
Dashing Santa bath ballistic
Twilight bath ballistic. This one is not Christmas, or seasonal, but it is my absolute favorite and I can't forget about it anytime I go in there!
Peeping Santa bubble bar.
Lord of Misrule bath ballistic. This is also one of my must haves during the holiday season. It is similar in scent to the Twilight bath ballistic.
Milky bubble bar. I love this bubble bar because you can get usually around 4 baths out of it, depending on how many bubbles you like.
The last goodies I picked up for Christmas were these chocolate advent calendars. I remember seeing these during my childhood, and I thought I would buy a few for fun and to send to family to enjoy. I picked these ones up at my local Sainsbury's.
What are some things your buying for the holidays for yourself and others? Leave a comment below. Have a very happy Thanksgiving week!
