Christmas time? What the heck?! A haul

Let me explain.

I'm not normally the early christmas kind of person. In fact, I quite hate the fact that Christmas starts in September now a days. I hate the fact that I can't escape the same 4 Christmas songs playing in EVERY SHOP IN TOWN.

However, as much as I complain, I love my housemates and I am going to give you a little sneak peek of what they've got for Christmas. Normally, I'm the first to shout: NO GIFTS THIS YEAR! because I'm broke. But this is my final year living with them (maybe?!) and we had to make this special. SO. Here's the low down.


I tried to go for a mixture of sentimentality and things they'd actually want. For Danni, I bought...

The Sleek eyeshadow Pallette called Storm. I love the colours in this palette and I think she will too. The reason I chose this is because she collects Sleek palettes and she doesn't have this one. It has a good mixture of nudes and smokey colours which is what she tends to wear. Price wise? Absolute Bargain. She had the most spent on her and I think it was worth it. I can't wait till she opens it!!

Now onto Lilly. Lilly was a bugger to buy for because this is the first year we've actually lived together. Even though we've been friends for two years now. However, I love what I bought her because it's something she comments on all the time. I bought her...

The Revlon Pedi-Expert pedicure set! Whilst I was buying Danni's palette, I was browsing the superdrug website looking for Lilly. She has all she needs in the way of makeup and toiletries so that was a no go. But then I remembered... The advert!! She always comments when an advert for the electronic version of this thing comes on saying how she wants one! Well. I decided: Why not get her one of tho- OH HOLY CRAP ITS £40. Nope. Not happening. So, I got her this one instead! A mixture of function and a testimony to my paying attention to the little things.

Now, Gemma is not officially a housemate, though she might as well be. We love her dearly in this household and she is welcome at any time. So, over the two years I've known Gemma, there as been a common theme in what we tend to talk about. Unfortunately one of them is body odor. I have NO IDEA why we talk about it, but Gemma is a life saver as she always has something that smells gorgeous in her bag. So I bought her...

3 of the scents from the boots Natural Collection. I LOVE these things. For a very low cost, they provide an amazing burst of incredibly fresh scent that smells amazing. The downside is that they don't last very long, but for a body spray that smells this amazing it's absolutely okay to buy these things. I myself have the Apple and Lime one and I Loooooooove it. (When I know where it is! I am terrible for losing things).

Finally, We have my last housemate. My dearest, Darlingest Chole. Or Chloe. (I call her Chole because her previous school spelt her name wrong and I thought it was bloody hilarious.) Chole and I have a very... good understanding of eachother I think. I really cherish the chemistry we have between us. It's jokey, it can be serious and I'll never forget how kind of a person she is. Now, Chole loves all things Batman and Spiderman. Soooooo I bought her....

A batman logo top! I saw it when I was perusing Primark (and standing there while girls bought bras which is my least favourite type of shopping because I get nothing from it. I'm gay. Ladies underwear is not exactly a turn on and I never get to see it unless I'm in the room when the girl is getting changed.) and Danni pointed this out. I immediately charged over and had it through the cash register whilst Chole was downstairs buying a new pair of tracksuit bottoms.

So there is my Haul for Christmas! It's pretty crappy for a haul, but I will be doing more of these when Christmas is over and done with and I have a student loan again! Yay!

Thanks for Reading!
