With only 9 days left until Christmas I thought I would should some things that I have put on my christmas list (and some things that I haven't dared ask for!)
1. Top of my wish list is this GORGEOUS Kate Spade handbag, for those of you that know me you will know that I already have a Kate bag. However, black handbags are essential and I don't have a really nice cute one so this would be my ideal bag! At £198 (discounted from £348) I haven't actually put it on my christmas list but I have been doing a lot of overtime at work recently and so maybe this will join me in the new year!
BUT
For now I would be very happy to settle for this much cheaper but equally cute £30 clutch bag from ASOS. Fleur de Force recently featured this bag in her Closet Confidential video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7v0uSqGcCL4&feature=c4-overview&list=UU1-szPBG7Oh4icM1FcQakQg) skip to 1min 50secs to see her talk about the bag if you don't fancy watching the whole video. Although I might give making my own a go, If I succeed then I will let you guys know!
2. Now these brushes are actually on my christmas list and I already know that I am getting at least a couple of them and I cannot wait! *excited squeak* I have been wanting these since the summer but couldn't justify the cost myself, but that's what christmas is for! These real Techniques brushes (for those of you who don't already know) are designed by Sam and Nic Chapman, owners of Pixiwoo and avid beauty bloggers/youtubers. I would highly recommend going and checking their videos and blog out because they give some very useful make-up hints and tips as well as guides to using their brushes!

3. Incase you hadn't noticed there is a bit of a theme developing, next is the beloved MAC Eyeshadow Pro Palette (hopefully not empty like the picture I chose!) Again, this is actually on my christmas list, along with some very specific instructions on which colours to buy! This palette will be quite an investment for whoever buys it for me but I haven't asked for a full palette, just a couple of colours to get me started. I am super excited to get my hands on my first proper MAC items (excluding my earlier bought gift set, check that out here: http://hannah--jane.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/recent-shopping-haul.html) and can't wait to build on my collection in time!
4. For those of you who read my latest Birchbox review you will see that I fell in love with this ModelCo Party Proof Lipstick. So as you can see they have made it onto my wish list! Not pn my actual list but definitely one for the christmas money to be spent on! Birchbox sell two different sets; Classics which have more red and orangey tones and Natural which are obviously muted tones of pink and nude. The one I have 'Kitty' is included in the Naturals set but I will be very happy to double up on that one as it is a perfect match to the natural colour of my lips!
5. Finally, another that is not on my actual Christmas list but will definitely be bought afterwards! This blush was also reviewed in my Birchbox post (linked above) and I think it is fantastic! It says long wearing and it definitely is, stays on all day without the need for a touchup. The colour that I have at home (Swiss Dot) is quite intense and dark so here I have chosen a brighter tone. Don't look so worried guys, the colour is really build-able so hopefully this colour won't be as scary when it is on my face!
Oh yes I almost forgot! I went into Boots today and saw this amazing The Yule Monty Soap and Glory Gift Set, they are now reduced from £60 to £27 which is an incredible saving! I have heard very good things about a lot of the products in this set aswell, if you want to check it out then head over to the Boots website and have a browse. This would be an amazing gift for a girlfriend, Aunty, Mum or Sister or anyone, it comes in a gorgeous case that is super duper pretty! I really do want to buy it while they still have some in my local shop but I don't know who I would give it too and it seems too close to christmas to treat myself!
I have a Birchbox December review coming for you so keep your eyes peeled it will either be midweek or Friday!
Hope you guys have enjoyed knowing want I want for Christmas, let me know what you want as I love to know what people have put on their Christmas lists too!
Merry Christmas
Lots of Love
