my birthday / christmas wishlist

Happy Holidays! Merry Christmas! Happy Boxing Day!

Having somehow had a very un-festive Christmas Day (fried eggs for brunch, krispy kremes for my mid afternoon meal followed by shepherd's pie for dinner.. mmm) I've already been out with someone at 7am and they got a laptop and tv and now I'm browsing the sales online - but I'm not one to impulse by having seen a low price.

So then I thought, well, what do I want for Christmas next year? Or my birthday? Or just as a treat for being myself? May as well start compiling a wishlist eh? Read on for more info - FYI I will probably be regularly updating this page.

Winter fashion and accessories haul

I've been up to no good, but who can blame me. I went to H&M last Sunday, concious that I other than one jumper in 2012, I hadn't bought any new winter stuff since 2010. Disappointed with quality and variety, but I had to get something so I did, but then on Wednesday New Look in Birmingham was full of almost nothing but woolly goodness - and at the till they gave me a voucher for 25% off if I went back on Friday. Which I did. and re-bought some stuff for less (ssh).. And then this morning ASOS sent me a text warning of an up to 60% off flash 24 hour sale. It's a conspiracy. I caved. Here's what I got (click read more for details and prices of each item), with a few earlier purchases thrown in, and one I resisted!
