Here’s what I wore Sunday December 15. My boyfriend and I went to the cinema together for the first time in over two years, I think. We watched Wicked and it was great.

Here’s what I wore Tuesday December 10. At first sight this might not appear to be a super Christmassy outfit, but the Christmas elements are definitely there, and I also just think that it’s a fun look.

I have a H&M sale haul to share with you today. Since I purchased these items back in July, many of the things are quite summery.
I picked up three rather summery dresses, however, I actually wore the blue slip dress with this winter look. I wore the white floral dress on my birthday in August, and I think it’s very cute. I’m not sure about the last slip dress though. Might not be my style.
I really like all four of these tops; they’re good staples.
I don’t wear a lot of blue denim these days, but I thought these parachute style baggy ones were fun and a bit different.
I picked up one bag, this yellowy green straw one. I thought it would be a nice bag for summer.
I also got two hats; another big straw hat (I have more than one already) and a crochet beret.
You know I love my hair accessories, and I added another bow hair clip and another headband to my collection.
I also bought these two pairs of fun, dangly earrings.
The last two items are not from H&M’s own brand, but from partner brands. I got this pair of silver glitter sling backs from & Other Stories.
And lastly, I picked up the Sigma Beauty Enchanted eyeshadow palette, which has been on my wishlist for quite a while. It’s a very pretty neutral palette with a twist.
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I finally got my hands on the Give Me Glow Cosmetics Christmas Morning palette, which I’ve been wanting for so long, and I really like the quality of the shadows and how the eye look turned out.

Here’s what I wore Friday December 6. It was my first day back at work after having the flu for most of the week last week, and then I got a really bad stomach flu Tuesday night this week, which is why I haven’t posted the past three days. So my family and I have been ill all of December so far, and I’m sick of it (pun intented).
Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I woke up with a sore throat and a cold that day, and even though I’m wearing a full face of make-up in these pictures, and still think you can see that I wasn’t feeling well. It took me almost a week to get well, and my cold isn’t gone yet.
