Sometimes life isn't how you planned it to be, and you end up staying awake late at night not being able to fall asleep because of that realisation. The truth is that in a month or even a few weeks time, everything will be back on track, but it is difficult to realise this. People change like ocean currents and even who you thought would be your sun forever will eventually leave you during sunset. You have to move on and accept the things you lose, because even though it hurts, you need to focus on the sunset and not the cold when they are gone. 

In winter you think you'll never feel the warmth of the sun on your skin again and in summer you think you will never feel the cold of winter, but the truth is you will feel these things again. If you think about your feelings in the same way its easy to conclude that you will feel sadness again, but most importantly you will feel happy again.

Outfit Of The Day

Lipstick: Yardley 'glamorous'

Glasses: Ray-Ban 

Necklace: Indian Roadside Stall

Dress: Cotton On

Rings: Accessorize

Shoes: Birkenstock

This is probably my favourite outfit, mainly because it is unbelievably comfortable. It almost felt like I was wearing my pyjamas, but the beauty is, I wasn't. I think it is really important that you wear clothes that make you feel comfortable and confident. Even if you just add a simple coat of mascara, it has the power to make you feel a hell of a lot better, but the best part is, when you feel your best everybody else can feel it too.

My Guide to Christmas

Recently I read the book 'I Heart Christmas' by Lindsey Kelk. At the back of the book there was a  Christmas guide and I loved the idea so much that I thought I would do my own version. I can't begin to explain to you why I love Christmas so much because I get very (and I mean VERY) excited just thinking about it. The decorations, the family gatherings, the crackers and the advent calendars...

Mostly, I love Christmas because it's the time of year when everything gets so festive and there are Christmas trees and lights nearly everywhere you go. Not only does it seem as if everyone is just as excited as I am, but people are a little happier as well!

 The best way to get into the Christmas spirit is to bake some Christmas treats. I made this amazing chocolatey Christmas fudge and it was really easy, but most importantly incredibly delicious.

The best part for me is re-watching all the Christmas movies under a big blanket. Near Christmas it also becomes acceptable to watch these movies everyday with a mince pie in hand (it is acceptable, right?) These are my top five Christmas movies:

This is my (super fabulous, amazing and spectacular) Christmas Playlist

You never really know when an unexpected Christmas dance party is likely to happen and when it does, you need to be prepared. 

I hope that you are having a wonderful Christmas season and have an even more wonderful Christmas day, even if that means you lie on the floor whilst massaging your food baby and chocking down one more mince pie.
