The Christmas Tag

The lovely Bex from Eclectic Bex tagged me to do the Christmas Tag; so here it is....

1. What are your favourite Christmas Movies?

Hmm this is already a toughie for the first question! There's many films I really love at Christmas, I've pretty much seen every movie they have on the Christmas 24 channel too. But I'd probably say I really love Jack Frost. It was very much a love or hate film.. But everytime I see it, it makes little old me cry...

2: Do you open your Christmas presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas Morning?

My family open our presents on Christmas morning, but we also have table presents. We don't do crackers in our house, so we do a £5 table gift instead of the cracker, something someone may like or a little joke present. Its just a sweet little tradition we've had for quite a few years.

3: Do you have a favourite Christmas memory?

As sad as it sounds, I don't have a favourite. I've always enjoyed Christmas, I've never really ever had a bad Christmas, but I don't have one memory that stands out overall. (Oh god how sad and boring do I sound!)

4: Favourite festive food?

Oh golly I do love a mince pie - but not the traditional ones. I really like the Cranberry ones I make, I think I might have to put the recipe on here one day, cause they are so delicious, and are a little healthier too!

5: Favourite Christmas Gift?

Oh golly another tough question. Again I don't really have a favourite but if I had to pick it would be between the handmade bunting my Aunt made for me a few years back, my Pearl Coat I got as an early Christmas gift this year as I needed a new coat and my sewing machine last year. I can never pick one, but I'm always very grateful for what I receive from anyone, big or small.

6: Favourite Christmas scent?

Cinnamon, Gingerbread and Mulled Wine.

7: Do you have any Christmas Eve traditions?
My mum always cooks a special Christmas Ham that we have, and I normally watch all three Robbie the Reindeer short movies along with a Bailey's Hot Chocolate.

8: What tops your tree?

We have 2 trees in our house, one in my bedroom, just of decorations I've liked or gotten over the years and downstairs we have the main tree which is always decorated in luxurious gold... both both tree's a topped with a Star.

This year we also have a third tree - our Gatsby Tree. We've gone for a roaring 20's theme this year, introducing some blacks. Plus I just love Gatsby and the Gatsby inspired decorations in my nearby garden centre. This is topped by a Masquerade Mask.

9: As a child what was the one (crazy, wild, extravagant) gift you always asked for but never received?

I don't think I ever had one which was so wildly extravagant - I was a very basic child. Jesus I never realised how boring I can be ha! Unless my parents can think of any...

*Toodles off to ask mother*... "

10: What is the best part about Christmas for you?

The best part of Christmas for me, is seeing how happy it makes Children, The way their faces light up, seeing the lights and seeing Father Christmas. Its the happiness of the Children that makes me so happy and cheerful at this time of year. Children make Christmas for me.

I tag anyone who reads this to do this tag.. but I shall definitely say that my lovely fellow bloggers Stephanie Maverick should do this tag & so should Hayley from Lady Haze of Vintage! 

Love

Emma Victoria

Review: Hold-up Stockings from Amazon!

 So a while back I was looking for some hold up stockings that didn't cost the earth, that stood up well throughout the day and that were good quality. While browsing on amazon I came across these and thought I would take a risk. I got them in a size XL (my thighs normally fit a size 20-22) and the fit was really good, and they didn't cut into my thighs at all.

These stockings were also a really good height on the leg for me too. I normally find with stockings they go right to the top of my thigh, which sometimes is great but sometimes I like ones that sit a little lower on my thigh instead of right up near the kitty; and these ones do the trick perfectly!

So the black pair were really nice, and found they didn't ladder at all for me (despite ripping a toe nail, very painfully, just before putting these on for work) - both pairs are 20 denier and are definitely better then some of the ladder resistant stockings I've bought in the past. These isn't too much lace on the top, but just enough and the hold up tape is very hard wearing too. I wore these frequently when I had a lot of meetings and I was darting around London in a pencil skirt suit, these didn't fall down, I didn't need to adjust them at all only when I went to the bathroom.  

The white pair are really good for anyone who needs Bridal Wear and don't particularly want to wear a suspender belt. The white is really lovely and isn't a too stronger pigment (I did expect these to be more white then they are when I first bought them). They were perfect for me when putting together a winter snow themed outfit.

Both sets of hold-ups are very comfortable and haven't for me, since having them for 2 months, have not laddered at all. I personally hand wash them in cool water after they've been used and worn in shoes for many hours a day in meetings. 

Another really good thing about these stockings is that they come in various colorus as well, so you have an array of choice.

Paradise4women - Buy Here for £2.89 a set.

OOTW: Hell Bunny Leona Dress

Just want to say thank you before we start... The blog hit 20,000 views on sunday!!! Thats crazy! Thank you so much for reading the posts and just being super awesome! THANK YOU!

Today's dress is the second ever rockabilly dress I ever bought! The first was a purple polka dot one, and I bought this one in London when shopping with my 2 friends! This dress is just a signature Hell Bunny Vixen dress, with the belt and the sweetheart neckline with the halter-neck strap.

Hell Bunny Leona Dress - £44.99
Rockabilly Flats, Babycham - £15

As said above this is just the typical Hell Bunny Dress. I super love the design on this dress, its just so beautiful (and well, super floral). Instead of using the belt that comes with this dress, I used one I got in a 2 belt set from Primark just as I kind of preferred it on the day I wore this outfit. I love this dress mainly because it makes my boobs look FANTASTIC! Cliché I know, but it really makes me feel so much more confident when my tummy is hidden and my boobs and butt are enhanced!

Make-up is the same us usual and again my new pink lipstick is featured, I'm super enjoying wear pink lipstick at the moment! Makes a change instead of red all the time! I just used a coral pink bow headband in my hair along with a simple pearl necklace!

On my tootsies, I just have some white socks rolled down for a more preppy look again! I got loads of compliments when dressed like this, and by having socks with my shoes it made me look a little more preppy!

Another short but sweet post from me today!

See you Saturday!

Much Love

Blogmas Day 7: Favourite Christmas Songs

❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄

I thought I'd share some of my favourite Christmas songs with you all! At the moment I have my 2 favourite Christmas Albums which are the compilation CD"The Best Christmas Album, in the world... ever!" and "Christmas Tales" by my favourite violinist Alexander Rybak... The first CD is actually my mums as she bought it before I was even born, and sadly this CD is beginning to show its age, but we are hopefully going to buy a new one (probably the same CD) soon! I know a few songs will be cover's of over songs, but to me they are still beautiful and they still have that meaning to them!
Below will be a list of links of my current favourite Christmas Songs, a short, sweet and relaxing post today!

Alexander Rybak - Silent Night

Elton John - Step into Christmas

(Hint - it's from the Grinch!) Jill Zadeh - Where Are You Christmas?

Slade - Merry Christmas Everybody

My ultimate favourite Christmas song in the whole entire world is Fairytale of New York - I cry everytime I listen to this. Everything about it...

Simple post today, but it gets us in the Christmas spirit!

18 Days till Christmas!

Lots of Love

Blogmas Day 4 OOTW: Retro Party Present!

❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄

This is just a simple little party look I've put together, I super love black dress' for going out just because they can go with anything. With this outfit I've gone for a 'present' sort of theme with all the little bows!

 I super love this one shoulder batwing dress, and I don't normally wear dresses this short, but it doesn't look too bad!

Black One Shoulder Dress, New Look - £Unknown (bought 2 years ago)

Pink Bella Bow Belt, Collectif - £10

Pink &White Brogues, New Look - £15.99

Pink Glitter Bow, Beauxoxo - £5

For my makeup I did my usual winged eyeliner with mascara and my lips I used my Rimmel 1000 Kisses Lip liner in Black Tulip with my Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick in shade 107, this is a very berry/plum tone lipstick thats perfect for winter. I thought I would add the Beauxoxo bow to run along with the present theme too, it just adds that cute little touch!

I thought I'd show you what I got for Alice today as well *WARNING CUTENESS!*
I bought some cute little bows at Pets at Home for £3 - Freddie refuses to wear anything but his collar but Alice is the opposite! Doesn't she just look so cute?! We are both matching with our bows!

Who thinks the gold reindeer is such a cute little touch? 

21 days till Christmas!

Blogmas Day 1: Glad Tidings!

❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄

Welcome all to BLOGMAS - I have never before done nearly a whole month of blogging every single day. The prospect is worrying about how I'm going to fit everything in, but obviously if something completely disastrous comes up then I will probably do 2 posts in one day (but hopefully that never happens!)

I'm going to do an array of Christmasy things on my blog and some posts may be videos too as well as picture posts for when I go to Winter Wonderland in London (there is going to be more then 1 trip!)

Today I just want to share some of the pictures from last Christmas with my family and pictures I had taken through December!

The Christmas tree & Bi-Folding doors mum and me decorated last year!

OOTW: All About Winter Onesies!

Today I thought I'd do my OOTW including my new Polar Bear onesie (featured in my most recent haul video on YouTube! You can watch it here!). I super love this onesie - its fluffy and soooo cosy! 

Fluffy Polar Bear Cream Onesie, Next - £38 

Super quick and short post today, but I am in so much pain after going to the nasty physio who I can't stand. I'm probably just going to have a nap this afternoon with a hot water bottle to try and ease my back a bit!

Soap&Glory Foam Call Review!

I thought I'd do a little review today as it feels like forever since I reviewed a product! I've nearly run out of this body wash and I must say I have been rather impressed with it overall! 
I bought this bottle around 3 months ago from Boots for £6.50 - me being me I didn't think that this product would really last that long as I used LOADS of body wash! However for once I really did get my money's worth of a product! This body wash has a really fresh flowery smell which is just beautiful and I just can't wait to have a shower sometimes just so I can use this beauty! Another strong point I love about this product has to be that it has a pump top - when I'm in the shower and I squeeze bottle I tend to find they slip out my hand and I can never get a good grip on them! 

The product itself is a white creamy shop and only needs 

a little water to become really foamy - You don't need to use too much of this product either as you do get quite a lot for your money! I normally have a thing against Soap and Glory sometimes due to the price - I love all their products a lot don't get me wrong but I'm normally dubious of the price but for once I was really pleasantly surprised how long this product actually lasted! I normally use this with a puffy wash ball because it feels super nice and feels like it exfoliates my skin and makes it feel so super soft! 

So what are your favourite Body wash products to bathe with and what if any are your favorite Soap & Glory products?!

Blogmas is growing ever nearer!

OOTW: No Effort Required

I know, I know, its been what 2 weeks or so since I've done an OOTW - but I have felt so low these past 2 weeks, and I just did not feel in the mood to do anything including blogging. But now I am finally back on track, I am doing OOTW's again and scheduling posts for when I can't get to post due to the amount of work I have! Anyway - what does the title mean? Well, this week has been a lazy kind of "can't be bothered" week, so I just went for a simple neutral coloured look...

Oversized Stone Cardigan, New Look - £12.99

White Vest, Next - £4

Black Slimming Leggings, Next £10

Fluffy Socks - £2

Coral Tie Headband, New Look - £5

Who's excited for a CHRISTMAS GIVEAWAY!?!?!!?! Details will be released this sunday, and what you may be in for a chance to win!

100 Little Things Part 2!

Lets start where we finished off last time on part 1 to this post (Make sure you read it before you read the first 50 facts about me!)

51. My butt and boobs are probably the hardest things to buy for ever.
52. Even though I model my self confidence is still only 5% - but its always growing!
53. My body confidence post was the first time I wore a swimsuit in 3 years.
54. I have pasta about 5 times a week, whether I do it for my lunch or dinner.
55. I always leave my washing in a huge pile in my room and just do it all in one big blitz.
56. I still read the texts which my ex sent me saying how much he admired me - and still to this day I feel my heart just hurt a little.
57. My camera's seem to magically just break or lose battery extremely fast before my eyes.
58. I'm probably the worst person in the world at editing YouTube videos.
59. I still need to do my Rockabilly look book that I promised my friend I'd do 5 months ago (I will do it, I know I will!)
60. I've only just figured out how to do scheduled posts on here (technology fail).
61. I still get nervous when I go on an aeroplane.
62. I really want to go to Lapland.
63. I want to meet a Reindeer!
64. My mum keeps telling me I should take up doing make-up but I'm really not that good.
65. I have watched the Gavin and Stacey box set around 100 times - that is no word of a lie.
66. My favourite film to watch at Christmas has to be Robbie the Reindeer - I'm pretty damn obsessed with that DVD.
67. My most embarrassing moment has to be when mum and me were shopping in Lidl and we got told we cant pay by credit card - neither of us had our debit cards on us (in our defence on their website it says all stores take Mastercard and Visa credit cards so it isn't really our fault as we did check).
68. I get really nervous when posting a YouTube video - I don't really know why.
69. I haven't done a driving lesson since the last week of June.
70. I have already bought all my Christmas presents for 2013 and already starting to wrap them!
71. I go on a strict detox 2 days before a gig and on the gig day to make sure my voice and body are in perfect condition when I go on stage.
72. The biggest crowd I have ever sang in front of is 300 people - and I was really scared.
73. My ex was the one who encouraged me to start singing some of my own songs - even though he never actually read any of them.
74. Only 3 people have ever looked at my song/poem book.
75. I am finally getting back into waist training with a corset after an 8 month break.
76.  I'm really scared about doing my driving test.
77. My favourite drink I buy in the shops is the Drench Cranberry and Raspberry drink.
78. I like my coffee really strong with 2 sugars and a small dash of milk.
79. I always get my Christmas stuff down on 1st November and do my Christmas tree. I have a fake tree for my bedroom but we get a real tree for downstairs in the living in December.
80. I have a bad obsession with penguins.
81. I really don't like having to study video games in Media - they bore me to complete death.
82. I wish I never gave up photography A2 - but I really wanted to focus more on English as I'm really passionate about English.
83. I'm specialised in working with children with severe disabilities and I specialise in children with Cerebral Palsy and quadriplegia.
84. I can never work when I know my brother is in hospital - don't even try to cheer me up as it won't work.
85. I never thought I would get to 40 followers on my blog - let alone 5!
86. I'm really struggling to think of more facts about me....
87. I really love Blackcurrant and Raspberry Jelly.
88. I really love rugby - I support England, Leicester Tigers and my birth team Harlequins.

90. I'm really loving the plum and berry colours for winter this year.

92. I have a bad habit of constantly changing my mind on my hairstyle.
93. I want wavy hair - my hair is so boring and stubborn when it comes to styling.
94. I can't stand the majority of the people in my village. They are all them 'eco' freak sort of people.
95. I currently have 15 candles lit in my bedroom which all smell of Strawberry & Pomegranate.

97. I built all the furniture in my room apart from my bed.
98. I really need to re-new my gym membership.
99. I'm going to stay up to watch the Ashes in Australia on tele - because I love Stuart Broad.
100. Even though I'm still battling with my health and depression I've become a much happier person in the last year after leaving the 2 boys who said they admired me to the end of the world and back. I'm finally back on my feet, slowly and steadily, but even with my trust issues still in place I'm meeting some nice lads who are proving to me there are still some nice lads around!

Well that's it! If you have any blog suggestions then make sure you comment! Don't forget to join my blog via GFC on the right hand side - at 50 followers I'll be holding a giveaway!

Pumpkin Carving Part 1 (100th Post!)

I thought before I carve my pumpkins on Wednesday ready for Thursday I would show you the pumpkins I carved last year with my Mum, Brother and his carer. On Wednesday I will also be blogging this years Pumpkins which will be part 2 of this post! Below will be the three links to my three carvings from last year. I'd probably say the hardest one to carve was the Smiling Jack O'Lantern which took me and Tor an hour and 45 mins to carve because, well we are beginners and we didn't have the right tools. I carved the Shocked Pumpkin face on my own and this only took me around 40 minutes. My mum carved the ghost by herself and cause I'm pretty sure she is like an art pro it only took her 20 minutes. I can't find a stencil for the shocked pumpkin but its really quite simple you could probably just draw it freehand!

Smiling Jack Stencil

Ghost Stencil

Happy Carving! I will show you my stencils which I have used on Wednesday Evening!

(P.S - I cant believe I've reached 100 posts - and this month I also reached 10,000 views! Super love that you appreciate my blog!!)

What's Going On In Life?

I always ask myself, "what's really going on?" - so much has happened in these past 2-3 month's with my relationships, work, college, friend's and pretty much everything! I thought I'd do a little life post again, as I feel it's been a while since we've had one. I know I usually do OOTW's on a Wednesday  but today I'm just really not feeling inspired, plus I'm in pain, so I came to the conclusion I'd just do this instead! I don't want to mope and groan, but sometimes its better to just get it all out your system in one go... right?

So where do I start? Okay lets start with probably the most horrendous and hardest part to just get it out of the way... WARNING - here comes the emotional bit.
Relationships and me just aren't really mean't to be. Who remember's the whole relationship/friendship (read these posts to kind of get the hang of it all: one, two & three). Well it's all this pa lava that's getting to me - I mean don't get me wrong, I'm completely over him and how he treated me with the lying and going behind my back the whole time but I just feel so lonely at the moment, like I don't have anyone to just give me a cuddle when I just need it. I wish that my little heart could be fixed, and that I didn't have trust issues now. My friends are being absolute stars and helping me through it all, but I just don't think I can get over these issues of trusting someone with my heart again. Have any of you got any suggestions on what to do? 
Health well lets say I've not been a lucky bunny with health this past year, no matter what I seem to do, it is always jeopardised by my sporadic health. Lets start with September last year, I had a major chest infection, which me being me, decided I'd be fine, until the point I started coughing so much and then I threw up. Only to go to the doctors and find out I had pneumonia - good one Emma. It took me around 9 weeks to recover, in and out of hospital alongside several medications and an inhaler I'm still on now. After leaving college I felt fine, until I then got another cold, which went straight to my chest, again on medication for 5 weeks, I got better. I had a fair amount of time being perfectly well and feeling healthy, until I broke 2 toes, not even a week after my 18th Birthday. I don't even have

the excuse of being drunk - I was messing around with my friend, he pushed me a little too hard and I whacked my foot against the solid corner part of the sofa. Smooth. And on the 5th August I fell down the stairs, and now it's come back to bite me. 3 weeks ago, I started having majorly painful problems with my spine/back. So after 4 appointments at the doctors, I finally had a spinal x-ray at the hospital last Thursday, and have to wait a week for the results. 

College is driving me mad. Don't get me wrong, I love studying, but because of all the problems with my spine I'm missing lessons, and it's annoying me cause I just want things to get back to normal. I've had the day off yesterday because of the amount of pain I was in and having several spasms in my back in the morning alone.

So what's happening in your lives that you just wish would get better so you can live your life like normal?

However, I've bought lots of little bits for Halloween this year, and I've started my Christmas shopping! This weekend I'm getting the Halloween decorations down and the Christmas decorations - SO EXCITED! Which brings me to - Christmas posts!! Is there anything you would like to see in my Christmas posts?! 

Lots of Love

P.S Friday I will be posting a little Pumpkin carving post - even though I won't be carving my pumpkins till next Wednesday (which I will also blog about too!)

Halloween Nails!

Here is a super quick tutorial on how to get some super cute Halloween nails! They aren't exactly the most complicated thing in the world but they are simple and just add a little finishing touch to your outfit! (Side note - This weeks OOTW will be up tomorrow due to me being at the doctors all morning and then at hospital for the majority of this afternoon!).

Step 1
First of all you want to prep your nails - I always opt to buff my nails to make them all smooth just because it makes the nail polish sit a little nicer on my nails and I also sorted my cuticles out as they seriously need seeing too!

Step 2
After you have prepared your nails, you want to add a red nail varnish, this doesn't have to be done neatly at all as you will be ruining them anyway in a minute! I recommend doing one hand at a time as you have to do the next step not long after applying the varnish. You also only need to do one coat of the red nail varnish.

Step 3
Now you need to get a tissue or a cloth and dab your nails and just completely make them look horrible like in the picture above! 

Step 4

Now you need to add black nail varnish on top, and repeat step 3. Once your nails have fully dried you want to take a clear nail varnish on top to make your nails smoother and to finish the nails off. Leave to dry, clean up around the nails where you have overspilled the varnish and your done!

I know this is only simple, but simple is good right? I promise I will do my OOTW post tomorrow, today has just been so hectic!

Love

Emma Victoria

Apologies & Life Update!

I am so super sorry for the lack of posts since last Wednesday  I know I promised you another tag post however I had to do some really last minute shopping (which I'll explain below). I will try and keep to my normal schedule but for now please bare with me with uploading posts as I have some major news that has happened and its taking up all my time. 

LIFE UPDATE!!!!!!!!

As many of you know, that have been following my blog, my twitter or my Facebook that I have been looking at getting another dog - and here she finally is! Her name is Alice and she is a Black Labradoodle! (For those who don't know a Labradoodle is a cross between a Labrador and a Poodle). We had a phone call Friday night saying if we would like to come to the Emergency Kennels and come and meet her to decide if we wanted to adopt her. We visited on Saturday afternoon after dropping my brother off at school for respite and we picked my dog up and went to Chessington, near London. Alice was in the run where we were introduced to her and she met Freddie - they got on really well! We asked if we could take her for a walk, and they said we could. She was really good and actually walked better when walking with Freddie then on her own.  Alice is around 1 year old and is really jumpy and playful at the moment. Alice has actually come over from Dublin, Ireland after being left and mistreated by her former home. We are finding out something new about Alice everyday (and she's learning something new too...) - for the next few weeks my blog posts will be a bit on the slow side because I am having to train Alice from scratch as she isn't house trained and she didn't even know the command 'sit'. Alice's story is not a one of a kind, many dogs have been mistreated and have a similar story - Alice now has a loving (and relatively calm) home where she will be given lots of love and cuddles with her brother Freddie!

My OOTW will be up tomorrow as I already have this pre-planned! 

Lots of Love

OOTW; Classy Bella

Today I'm finally showing you my gorgeous new Lindy Bop 'Bella' dress in Turquoise! I'm now having to take photos of my OOTW's on the landing in my house due to the weather getting worse and the rest of my house isn't really that interesting. I bought this a while back and every time I came to show it in an OOTW I put it in the wash cause it was dirty - typical aye? So here it is finally!!

Turquoise Bella Dress, Lindy Bop - £29.99

(also available in Raspberry, Blue,Black & Red)

Hair Flowers; Pack of 10, Amazon - £4.17

Pearl Necklace, Collectif - £15

Silver Shoes, Clarks - (Hand-me-down from Mum!) 

I super love this dress and I'm not even wearing Shapewear with this outfit! I also find this dress just seems to slim my stomach right down and also boosts the look of my curves on my busy and hips (not forgetting my bum!) This dress has a buttoned detail on the front and at the back it has an open back just to the top of the middle of your back - there is a ribbon at the top to just add to the detail of the dress and it just pulls everything together at the back! This dress it probably one of my favourites right now - its super flattering and you can even get it in a few other colours! I really love Lindy Bop dresses as they are vintage style without the huge price tag - I love Lindy Bop dresses and my collection of their clothing is forever growing (I have just bought the Antoinette dress and the Serena dress - woops...)

This isn't a very lengthy post because I literally just got dressed to do this post for you all as I currently have a fever and I've been poorly and sick!

My post on Friday will be another Tag post (from Stephanie Maverick, read hers before I post mine!).

See you all soon my lovelies!

Love

Emma Victoria
