What's in my winter bag?

Hello, my lovelies!

TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF DECEMBER WHICH BASICALLY MEANS CHRISTMAS IS HERE!

Anyone who knows me well enough knows that, this year, I’m looking forward to Christmas an extra special amount. This is because, firstly, it is my great nan’s 100th birthday and we devoting our Christmas Eve to celebrating it on behalf of her. Secondly, with my family, I’m going to Disneyland Paris from the 20th December to the 22nd December which I will be writing a blog post or posting a vlog up to my YouTube channel about my time there. Last but not least, my family and I are celebrating Christmas Day at my house (which we have never done before) so it will be a nice change. I’m so excited!

Since we are now in the magical month of December, I thought that this month should be devoted to winter through my beauty, music and life themes. So, for each Sunday of December, I will be doing my very best to put up a winter based post!

Today, I am going to be discussing what I have in my winter bag (trust me when I say the majority of the stuff inside has literally no use to me whatsoever!) and I will make sure to link some of the products I have in there after this post. Just a quick note, there won’t be any pictures this week as number 1, I look hideous today so I can’t take any of the products on me and number 2, I have so much college work to do it is actually ridiculous.

Okay so I’m going to start with some of the stuff that doesn’t really need links or anything along those lines. So first of all, I have a sketch book, a journal, and my college ID card. These were given to me by the college so I am not really sure of the company or the retailer they were from but I suppose that’s not such a huge deal. I also have my oyster card, my iPhone and my door keys which are essentials. I also have Terry’s Chocolate Orange Bar  wrappers which I am going to remove right now. :’) I usually carry around a bottle of water to keep me hydrated throughout the day too but apparently I went for the unhealthy option on Friday and bought a bottle of Diet Coke

Okay so now for my winter essentials. Throughout the winter, my lips are always incredibly dry and I usually bite them a lot which makes them even worse. This is because of the coldness and the wind and sometimes can be due to being de-hydrated. So I usually carry around some lip balm or lip gloss to prevent this. This is usually my little pot of Vaseline which is the most amazing stuff ever (for me) when it comes to chapped lips. As long as you apply it throughout the day, your lips should be mended by the evening.  It’s just so cool and I recommend it. J

I have literally just put into my bag my cream scarf, hat and mittens from Warehouse which me and my mum bought yesterday which are more expensive than we realised before getting to the counter. They are made of wool and are honestly so comfy. I bought them as I know I am going to be getting an awful lot of wear out of each of them and so I hope each of them serve their purpose for the price we bought them at. Since it’s winter, I recommend you all have some nice and warm bits and bobs such as a coat (like the Parka Coat I have or the new one I bought yesterday which I will do a review on soon maybe), a scarf, a hat, and some gloves as they could all help to prevent colds before Christmas so you don’t feel stuffy and miserable. I’ll put the link to Warehouse at the bottom of the blog post to the mittens and the rest of the set.

Right so that’s about it. I don’t really have an awful lot in my bag to do with winter, it seems so if you lot have any suggestions for wintery things I should own this year, let me know in the comments below this post for everyone else to see or let me know through any of my social networking sites.

I hope today’s post was useful for you lot and, next week, I’ll make sure to upload a post with lots of pictures for you!

I hope you all have a lovely week and I shall speak to you next Sunday!

Love you all lots
