What I got for Christmas 2015!

I absolutely love reading other bloggers' 'What I got for Christmas' posts and I also enjoy watching youtube videos of the same title. So, I decided I would write one to share with you what I was lucky enough to receive too! Please do not think that this is my opportunity to show off or brag about what I was bought - this is simply a post to demonstrate how extremely grateful I am for what I received. If you do not like 'What I got for Christmas' posts then this one is not for you!
 
Christmas 2015 was spent with my family in Swansea and me and Sam were so spoilt! I didn't ask for anything in particular for Christmas, although typically my straightners conked out a few days after!
 
My Christmas wishlist only contained a few make up products and some new pyjamas! I was honestly just really happy to spend the day with my family this year, stuffing our faces and arguing over who was winning in the 'Best of British' board game! (Its a good one - try it!)
 
So, lets talk about the gifts I did receive - I wont bore you with everything, just the gifts that were my absolute favourites!
 
A beautiful Olivia Burton watch with a light grey strap and a rose gold face.
 
 
 
The Naked Smoky eye shadow palette and some Charlotte Tilbury products.
 

 
 
Lots of new comfy pyjamas!
 
 
Some lovely items of clothing.
 
 
The most delicious Merlyn Welsh cream liqueur from Penderyn Distillery.
 
 
More booze...
 
Beautifully scented Yankee candles.
 
Snow fairy of course!
 
Sam pulled out all the stops and bought me the Naked 3 eye shadow palette.
 
 
 
He also treated me to my most luxurious lingerie set I've ever owned from Victoria's Secret!
 
 
 
My Nan also treated me to the Stila eyes are the window eye shadow palette in the colour Spirit which I am really enjoying using for an everyday make up look.
 
 
 
 
 
I was also given some money from my family to spend on my travels this Summer - Me and Sam have just booked our 3 week adventure to Sri Lanka so I am saving every penny so we can have an amazing time out there!
 

 
 
Finally, on Boxing Day we drove back to the Midlands to visit Sam's family and we couldn't believe it when we discovered his parents had treated us to a trip to Amsterdam on the first Bank Holiday weekend in May! It is so thoughtful to be given something that you can look forward to and I have always wanted to go! Expect a City guide blog post in May!
 
So there we have everything! I didn't want to go into too much detail but I hope you have enjoyed reading this post as much as I enjoy reading others!
 
Let me know what you got below and send me links to your similar blog posts! I'd love to know!
 
Lots of love,
