Away For New Years!

Watchet - Somerset

So, on Tuesday my boyfriend Jamie & I still hadn't any plans for New Years Eve!

He then came up with the idea of going down to Somerset for a couple of days!

Wednesday, I had work, but once I finished we then travelled down that evening!

Jamie's dad and step mum, have a holiday home down there right on the sea front, so we thought it would be a nice change of scenery to see in the New Year!

We arrived quite late on Wednesday evening so we went straight to bed!

Waking up to this view on New Years Eve!

Thursday (New Years Eve) we decided we wanted to do something fun, and found a zoo called Tropiquaria.

I thought I took a lot of photos, but realised I took them all on Snapchat and didn't save most of them (stupid I know) 

This little one was just a bit too cute not to take a photo of! He or she looks like they are really posing for this!

When we walked in, there were 2 parrots. But only one caught our eye! Olly!

He actually waves at you!

There were a lot of other tropical animals there such as, caiman, tortoise, birds, emus, lemurs, lizards and so on!

After the zoo, we went back to the house for some lunch, and to watch Harry Potter! 

We then went out for a curry to a restaurant called The Spice Merchant! It is super tasty! We had some wine and cocktails with our food too!

After that we walked along to a local pub, to have a few drinks in there, before heading back to the house for prosecco, and to watch the London fireworks on the TV!

It was lovely it just being the 2 of us snuggled up on the sofa!

New Years Day was a bit of a rubbish day with regards to the weather, as it would not stop raining! We just decided to deal with it and go for a walk along the pier! 

We did however get absolutely soaked by the rain, so went back to the house to dry off, watch more Harry Potter, before packing up to come home! :(

It is such a lovely area down in Watchet, there is so much to do! I do recommend going in the summer time as a lot of the activities and days out are mostly outdoors, but we had a lovely time even though it was raining!

I hope you all had a good New Years Eve, and I wish you all a Happy New Year!

Let me know what you got up to, by leaving a comment below!

What I Got For Christmas!

Christmas 2015

Christmas is quite possibly my favourite time of the year! I love the festivities and how happy everyone is!

I thought I would share with you some of my main gifts which I received from my family, boyfriend and friends!

Starting with my Beauty Advent Calendar from Selfridges, which I received from my lovely boss!

This was such an awesome gift!
This was a 24 door calendar, and behind every door were the most amazing products! Some of which were, Tweezerman tweezers, dermalogica products, enzyme peel, concealer and so on! All of these products came in very useful, and I think I've used pretty much all of them minus a few! I highly recommend you purchasing this for yourself next Christmas! 

Next up are two of the main gifts I received from my parents!
MATILDA in Theatre!

I'm so excited to go and see this! I love going to see shows in the theatre, and Matilda is probably up there with one of my favourite childhood films, so finding out it was in theatre was amazing!

Decléor Aroma White Foam Cleanser

This is the only cleanser I will use on my face! You only need a small amount of product as its a foam so builds up when being used! It is the only cleanser which doesn't cause me to break out, and leaves my face feeling fresh and clean!

So, now I thought I would share with you the gifts my boyfriend bought me!
Adidas Superstars

I'm actually in love with these! I haven't worn them yet as I'm too scared to get them dirty in this weather! However I have worn them around the house and they are so comfortable!

Oversized Oasis Scarf

I've wanted one of these huge scarfs for ages, but couldn't find one I liked! I absolutely love this one! The colour is perfect as it will go with anything! Its very cosy too!

Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet

My go to perfume! I received a lot of perfumes for my birthday back in October, but ran out of this one! This is my all time favourite perfume! It smells fabulous! Highly recommend! 

Olivia Burton Watch

I already have a Marc Jacobs watch which is a lot bigger than this one! I wanted another watch which was slightly smaller for special occasions! This is perfect and really cute! I love the black and gold and leather strap!

Lastly..
Blue Jumper from Topshop

Such a cosy jumper! I have a whole draw full of jumpers! I find them so easy to wear, either with leggings or jeans! I might be slightly obsessed with them, as I do tend to just look for jumpers when shopping!

This next gift is from my Godmother, Rose.
She is extremely generous and I certainly wasn't expected this!
Ted Baker Clutch Bag

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how pretty this bag is..
It is such a nice colour, its actually Royal Blue, this image I took is making it seem purple!
I haven't had the chance to use it yet, but I'm very excited to!


So they are all the gifts I wanted to share images of!
I did receive a lot of other things, such as cinema tickets to The Rex in Berkhamsted from my Uncle & Auntie, money, chocolate, prosecco, pyjamas, and all the usual stuff you get for Christmas!


I hope you enjoyed my "What I Got For Christmas' post, and I hope you all had a lovely Christmas!

I would love to know what everyone else received, so please leave comments below, and I can have a read!
