Graze Box

A nice little freebie from o2, a graze box from Boots! I chose Pretzels with Chocolate Dip and it was lovely, although I would have preferred it if the dip was a little less hazelnutty.

2015 Summary

It's the end of the year and time for my yearly summary! This year has been pretty disappointing on the whole, I've not won very much and I'm feeling pretty disheartened. I don't want to sound ungrateful because I have had some lovely wins, but it does feel like a lot of the year has been a bit of wasted effort given the amount of time it takes every evening. I might cut back a bit next year - life is for living after all!

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo

My second advent win - a bottle of La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo. It's a lovely moisturiser, really soft and glides on nicely.

Etrala Sweatshirt

One of my only wins in the advents this year - a sweatshirt from London designer Etrala. It's gorgeously soft, so cosy, but it's quite a weird shape - it's short but not cropped, and very baggy in places, so you end up looking sort of...triangular. I think it will end up being a wear-round-the-house type top rather than something I would feel confident going out in. 

Stock photo because as ever I am terrible at taking photos of clothes.
