BLOGMAS | DAY 1

I forgot to mention in my November Favourites that my favourite thing about November ending is DECEMBER! YOU GUYS IT'S DECEMBER THAT MEANS IT'S NEARLY CHRISTMAS AND I AM SO EXCITED!!!! I jumped out of bed at the very respectable time of 11:30am, lol, in sheer excitement to eat my very first mince pie of the year. Well, actually, I may have been eating mince pies at the beginning of January, but that's not even the point. The point is that I love mince pies. In fact I was waay more excited about my mince pie than I was about my advent calendar. The only thing better than chocolate for breakfast, is a mince pie for breakfast. Seriously, they're one of my favourite things about Christmas. The one in the photo is from the posh, luxury "Extra Special" range at Asda, and oh my god they're so good. I'll probably sample mince pies from a bunch of shops and ranges so I'll let you know which are the good and which are the bad. These ones from Asda are bordering excellent. 

So this year I'm jumping on this whole Blogmas vibe. Though I'm not even sure of the requirements of it? I feel as though I should be doing festive and joyous Christmas posts, about gift guides and gingerbread recipes or my favourite Christmas candles and what not. These posts may well sweep through at some point during the month but I think I'd rather write chatty posts like this, instead. Is that even allowed? Am I allowed to break away from the strictly beauty style that I've been honing for the past year or two? I think this is a nifty opportunity to showcase the other sides of me; I'm a massive foodie, my taste in music might surprise you and so might my hobbies. 

Beauty blogging isn't all I do so I thought it would be nice to throw in all my other life preferences. Janelle, what the hell is a life preference? Anyway, I post beauty-related content on Wednesdays & Saturdays and all the days in between will be miscellaneous "Blogmas" vibes. So keep your eyes peeled if you're interested!

All my links and doodahs are at the bottom of this post, as always.

Thanks for reading and MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Is it too early? It's probably too early...
