My Current Wish List


I recently discovered the very amazing Wantfeed (give me a cheeky follow, Abzfabz) which is basically Pinterest but for things that you're lusting over. Scrolling through all the amazing products, and seeing that Christmas is just around the corner, I thought that I'd do a post all about what I'm eyeing up.

I've asked for the Charlotte Tilbury Dolce Vita Palette for Christmas and to be honest it's all I'm thinking about. It's the glitter in the bottom left that's getting me excited. I've heard so many good things and I seriously can't stop googling pictures and swatches, help me. Something a little more on the cheeper side is the Hollywood Eyeshadow Quad from Tanya Burr Cosmetics. I'm having a real eyeshadow moment. It just looks like a normal palette but the shade 'alohomora' got me sucked in. Plus I've not tried that much from the range and I feel like I need to branch out! I'm not overly enamoured with the Zoella Beauty range but I really want to try out the set of two lip balms. I'm in need of a lip balm so why not kill two birds with one stone! Back to Charlotte Tilbury and another thing I've asked Santa for the Matte Lipstick in Sexy Sienna It's a gorgeous nude/pink/coral and when I had a cheeky swatch I fell in love! Come on Santa don't let me down! One thing I've wanted for a very long time is a Kitchen Aid Mixer, the type that they used to use on Bake Off. That in pistachio green would be my absolute dream! I don't know why I'm so obsessed with it but the fact that I could properly pretend to be Mary Berry would be amazing.

Letter To Santa


Dear Santa,

I hope 2014 has been treating you well and that you've got all of your stuff sorted out for Christmas. This year's not been too bad for me, thanks for asking, but it's now even better because it's nearly CHRISTMAS! Normally I don't make a Christmas list because I like to not have any idea what I'm getting so they're all surprises, but this year, to help out my mum, I made what I think was a good comprehensive list with different things that went with peoples price ranges. So, without further ado, here's my list:

  • Urban Decay Vice 3 palette- because I don't think I've ever seen something more colourful and shimmery in my life.
  • Mac pigments gold and beige- because the gold glitter needs to get on my lids ASAP
  • Baby Sven- because Frozen.
  • Pointless quiz book- because one day I will win a pointless trophy
I can't wait for you to come for a visit and I hope everything goes smoothly!

Love Abz

(P.S. Hope the Reindeers are excited too!)

World's scariest things

Source
Now, I don't like that I'm scared of that much in the grand scheme of all of the scary things in the world, but when I am scared of something, I'm scared! The problem is, I get myself worked up about it and then it's all I can think about. So, because I know you all care, I'm going to tell you some of the things that terrify me to my core (dramatic!).

  • Spiders- This is probably my biggest fear. Even the thought of them makes me feel like they're crawling all over me. I bought the Radio Times this week (like most weeks) and there was a double page spread just for a programme about spiders...with pictures. It was awful, they were looking at me like 'We're going to jump out of this page and crawl all over your face!'. No thank you.
  • Dark spaces where I can't see- If you read my new house post then you will have seen that in my bedroom I have a rail, instead of a wardrobe, to hang my clothes. But in that space it's really dark. Picture the scene, it's night time, I come in to go to bed and in the corner there's this giant dark space that someone could hide in. To put myself at ease I have to crawl into it and make sure that there's nothing in there. I know, it's weird. 
  • Murderers- This is a bit weird but what I mean is that when I'm walking down the street alone and it's a little dark and someone walks past me, there's this thing in my head that says 'That's a murderer. You're going to die. Try and make your final thoughts happy.'. What a weirdo. It doesn't matter how many times I say it's not true, when it comes down to it just gets to me!

My Netflix List


As a person who spends around 10 hours of my day sat watching a screen it was only a matter of time for me and Netflix to be brought together (or for my brother to get it and me to sponge off him...). To me there is nothing better than spending days of your life wrapped up in a little mini world, feeling someone else's pain and making their problems your problems, bliss. So I thought that I would share my list of TV series' that I would definitely recommend watching on Netflix.

  1. House of Anubis-I'm not even joking, this is one of the best programmes I've ever watched. The episodes and story lines just draw you in and the fact that there are so many episodes per series means that you get really attached to the characters and I seriously cannot wait for the third series to go on so I can indulge myself in it again!
  2. Gossip Girl-I have such a love/hate relationship with this programme but overall I do really like it. Sometimes I can't keep up with all of the love interests and family problems but the first series had me hooked from beginning to end so I definitely recommend starting it and then you can make up your mind from there. 
  3. Silk-So good, so good. I like how it shows you the different sides of a court case but in a completely non boring way. Each episode had a different case each episode is different so it makes it way too easy to watch a lot of episodes back to back, not good but at the same TOO GOOD!
  4. Last Tango in Halifax-YES YES YES! I love it, it's too good, too much dbfushbfaibahbv......you must watch.
