Our New Christmas Tree | Balsamhill & Disney Decorations

21 December 2017



This year we decided to get a really stunning Christmas tree that was firstly easy to assemble & have the lights already on the tree I came across this little beauty from BalsamHill


Its the Canadian Blue Green Spruce Tree
it arrived very quickly & the tree itself was super easy to assemble it comes in 3 pieces instead of our old tree that was in tiny sections 
 We got some brand new Disney ornaments for our tree a few I could get from Ebay in Australia but the Cinderella & Belle one is from the USA

20 December 2017

These Gingerbread cupcakes with a soft buttercream frosting filled with gingerbread spices are my favourite to bake for the christmas season

1 1/2 teaspoons of baking soda
1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon , ground ginger & cloves
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of hot water
You need to preheat your oven to 350F degrees " 175C degrees "
place your cupcake liners in a baking pan for cupcakes

In a large bowl cream together your butter & sugar once cream add your egg beaten & the molasses 
In a separate bowl mix all of your dry ingredients together make sure it is all sifted first then add your  dry mix to the wet mixture gently stir in the hot water until its all combined together
Then add the mixture to your cupcake liners & bake for 25 - 30 minutes
the mixture may look very runny & that is normal they bake into soft gingerbread
Gingerbread Buttercream frosting 
250gram Stick of Butter 
1/3 molasses 
1/2 ground ginger
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 of ground nutmeg 
2 cups of icing sugar

Burgundy Christmas Eye Look | Sportsgirl Makeup

17 December 2017


With Christmas less than a week away I wanted to create a fun festive eye look using one of my favourite sports girl beauty palettes from this year 

 The shadows I used 
Bae - all over the lid
Lit - all over the lid 
Slay - on the butter crease in a v shape 
Bye Felicia - The inner portion of my lid 

 I just love the soft cranberry shades from this palette & that stunning rose gold berry lipstick from ColourPop

Frosted Plum | The Body Shop

16 December 2017

Back in 2015 the body shop had just released their Christmas collection & I was addicted to their scent Frosted Plum they haven't released this scent till this year so I have been stocking up on all of the frosted plum goodness

The thing that I have always loved about this fragrance is that its a soft plum scent its made from Plum Extract that is from Turkey
The newest thing that I have tried this year is the gorgeous fragrance spray mist
The shower gel body butters & body lotion plus the hand cream is again that perfect Turkish plum scent from 2 years ago

Whats your favourite Christmas body shop scent ?

The Ombre Metallic Midi | Zara

9 December 2017

Ive had this stunning Zara midi in the " wanting to style " part of my closet for awhile now its a gorgeous 
soft metallic satin ombre midi skirt with soft pleats & different shades of purples 

 The thing that I love about this skirt is that you can style this in any season either with a jumper blouse basic tee its very versatile I would style it with black or white colour tees though 
I styled this with a basic cropped tee from boohoo as I wanted all the focus on this gorgeous metallic midi it looks so festive & fun
