S’happenin?

So after my epic 12 day Next gift guide, a little bloggity break over the weekend was definately in order 🙂 Here’s a run down of what I’ve been upto in my absence…

The Christmas Fair at George Square, Glasgow.

Been wandering through this every night on my walk back to Queen Street Station. Looks so pretty lit up at night, kinda wish it could be like that all year round.

My living room on Saturday morning, after an epic friday night wrapping session.

Now this picture above is visual evidence of why I am skint. The pressies go all the way under the tree! This is everything for my family, besties and David. 5 rolls of wrapping paper later might I add. Haha oh yeah, and incase you’re wondering why there’s towels at the base of the window – David was trying to work out where the draft was coming from! He’s such a determined little house husband

On saturday we went shopping and to see Tron Legacy at night (bit gutted, paying £10 for a 3D ticket when they admit only half of the film is in 3D, cheeky!) I had my first successful shopping trip in ages. Got myself a few pairs of shoes and tights from primark, and 2 dresses, one playsuit and a top from urban outfitters. I was going to do a wee keep or return post, but I have came to the conclusion that I am just going to keep them all. This is what I’ve bought to wear on christmas day, any ideas how I should accessorise or what to wear with it?

The Hannah Zakari giveaway. 
I couldn’t believe how generous they’d been with the goody bag, thank you so much HZ! Plus I have a £25 voucher to spend, but not sure if I can do it online so was maybe hoping to pop into the store in Edinburgh on friday. But our christmas eve trip will probs be weather dependant 🙁 This snow is pretty but my my it is disruptive.

Finishing work for Christmas.

Yep, so this picture is pretty much proof that I FAIL at life! Haha. Tuesday was our last day at work and everyone was pestering me for a name board so they could take a cheesy picture – so being the loser that I am, I made up an Ayden and got them to take one of me too. The work’s christmas party was lovely and after it I went to stay with my family back home and that was lovely too. My gran’s and my mum’s house are both always so nice at christmas, makes me feel like a wee girl again. I really can’t wait to go back and spend some time with them at christmas ♥ I’m sure there are so many of you out there who feel the same, living away for uni, or work, or if youve just moved out in general. Hope you all have a lovely time with your families this weekend.

So I guess the rest of this week is just that final rush to get organised for saturday! To all of you working in retail right now… I SALUTE YOU! This week I’m catching up with friends and exchanging pressies, buying some foody goodness from M&S for christmas morning in the flat, and tonight I’m going to see my 3rd christmas show this month, Beauty and The Beast at The Citizens Theatre.

What’s your plans this week? Are you organised? Still at work? Hope you’re starting to get full of the festive cheer whatever you’re upto 🙂

Love Ayden x
