Gifts I got my Parents

Hey guys, how are you all?
I was originally going to do a full 'presents I got others' post but I got most people little things so I decided I'll do a small one just on what I got my parents.

Mum
From my mum I went pretty safe and got the thing she's been hinting at for a long time.
I didn't get her a birthday present and her birthday was in November so I said I'll spend the money I would have on her birthday for her christmas present instead so she'll get one better present rather than 2 smaller gifts.

I got her  LOVERDOSE Tattoo by DIESEL.
I got the biggest bottle which was 75ml and it cost £48.99 from Boots.



Dad
My dad is always hard to buy for so I just stuck to cologne once again.

I saw this gift set which is the James Bond 007 and I think I got the Quantum one which is the one pictured below. The gift set includes a 30ml Cologne and 50ml Shower Gel and it cost £19.00 from Boots.

The Christmas Tag

As I'm writing this, it is 2:19am in England on the 23rd December 2013. This technically means that there are only 2 days left until christmas.
Since it's 2 in the morning, my brain isn't functioning enough to write a proper post so I am going to do a well suited Christmas tag created by PointlessBlog aka Alfie Deyes who is by far one of my favourite youtubers. No one tagged me but whatever.



1). Use one noise to describe how excited you are for christmas
SQUEEAAAKKK

2). Whats the best present you've ever been given and why?
Probably my laptop which was a late christmas present last year because on laptops you can go on the internet and the internet has blogs and youtube and tumblr and twitter. And gifs...

3). Whats the worst present you've ever been given and why?
Probably a pen. Yes, I got given a pen. To be fair the pen came with a key ring but then again the key ring was an ugly lifeguard thing and the pen only lasted about a day...

4). Sing a line from your favourite christmas song
.
"I should be playing in the winter snow but imma be under the mistletoe" -Mistletoe, Justin Bieber

5). Whats your favourite Christmas film?
Probably either elf or home alone.

6). Show how good you are at wrapping a present.
How? Okay this tag was not made for blogs.

7). If you could rename one of father christmas' reindeer, what would you name it?
Inka because that's my name and my best friends name put together. Yes we're shipped.

8). Whats your favourite thing about christmas?
The food, lights, music, time off school and spending time with family. I know that's not one thing but shh i like christmas.

Tan Ankle Boots | Review

I bought these ankle foots for around £40 and I think I bought them around September or October but I'm not sure.
They are by Clarks and from Brantano.
I wasn't too sure about them at first but they are so comfy and I wear them everywhere.
The good thing is, you can wear them with skirts, dresses, jeans, shorts or leggings. They literally go with everything.
I haven't really worn any other shoes out since I bought these.
They are really cute, last well (they don't get scuffs or holes easily, i have none so far) and they are really comfy.
They are really well priced for what they are too.
If you are in need of some Autumn/Winter boots, then I would definitely recommend these.




They look a bit weird in the photos but I promise they ARE nice, just saying.

This is not a sponsored blog post.
