Christmas Christmas, Bah Bloody Humbug!

So it may (or may not) have escaped your attention that I'm not the biggest Christmas fan in the world. That said, I am slowly becoming a convert (just on the quiet), as this year was a fantastic year. And it wasn't a fantastic year for selfish reasons, oh no. It was fabulous because the look on my boyfriend's face when I gave him main present from me; a remote control version of his favourite car: a Range Rover.

And here's a picture of us outside whilst he plays with it. I was dressed as practically as evernot! in my favourite skinnies (Criminal Damage from a friend), strap top (Primark), my favourite shirt (River Island), my hoody (Primark) and my new boots (Matalan) that I saw in Stella last Sunday and fell in love lust with.

For Christmas this year I also got a couple of DVDs (27 Dressed &+ Confessions of a Shopaholic); Pink's Funhouse album; a spider catcher (I have an insanely bad phobia of them); a gorgeous new watch aaaaaand a book about Vivienne Westwood. I've been drooling over the book since I got it, it's been a struggle for anyone to get me to put it down for more than 5 minutes. I got some other bits and pieces as well, and a crazy amount of chocolate that'll take me about 10 minutes to eat because I'm that much of a pig!

And now it's Boxing Day, so we all know what that means.... Eating left overs until we feel sick, and the major sales begin. I'll be the first to admit that I won't be heading out to traipse around shop after shop on the hunt for a bargain - I'm just too lazy. Also, I've grown to hate and love the sales all in one, which makes navigating them a bit of a hassle. I mean, they're horrendously bad because everyone is jostling for their post-Christmas bargains and buying pointless stuff they don't even really want, but still buy because "OhMyGosh it's only £2.50 and it does SORT of fit me!" On the other hand it's a great thing as it means that dress you've had your eye on for New Year's but couldn't justify at £40+ is now a mere £20. Then you just have to pray they still have your size.

Ahh, and whilst watching My Family on the wonderful Christmas television schedule this year (read: crappy as usual), I saw something that made me shriek out in delight (much to my brother and boyfriend's disgust). Janey, one of the characters, was wearing the exact jumper I blogged about a few months ago.
I still lust after it. Badly. However, it is now sold out. Sad times.

Anyway, won't stop for more now, no doubt I will be able to get some blogs out at some point as it's New Year's soon and there's lots of Bank Holidays around this period so I won't be in the office. Also, I'll be having to figure out what to wear for New Year's as I'm going into London for the event, and staying for the night after as well - giving me time to do some sale shopping on the Saturday. Pysched. :)
