As I've been a bit of a bad blogger recently (I blame Christmas for my busy-ness) I thought I'd get back into the routine of things with a nice wintry tag.
But leading up to Christmas I have a few lovely Nail art posts for you and last minute gift ideas. Hope you enjoy the tag!
1. Favourite candle scent?
Anything warm and yummy! I love scents that smell like home baking that are all warm and cosy. My favourite winter candle has to be the mini Neom Serenity candle which to me smells like a vanilla-y chocolate orange.
2. Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate?
I'm not hugely in to hot drinks but I do love white hot chocolate and a very milky coffee/latte. Costa coffee's White Hot Chocolate is a must for Winter!
3. What's the best winter memory you have?
It was actually early this year when it snowed really heavily and I took my dog, Ruby for a long walk in the snow, the views were just amazing with the snow being so deep and I was amazed at the giant 7+ foot icicles!
4. Which makeup trend do you prefer: dark lips or winged eyeliner?
Winged eyeliner is everyday makeup for me now (if really makes your eyes appear bigger/stand out more if you are a glasses wearer) so it doesn't feel like a trend for me. So I'd have to say dark lips as it can change the look of your makeup so much and can look really chic or vampy depending on the shade. All time favourites have to be NYX Round Lipstick in Hero or Rimmel Kate Lipstick in 107.
5. Best fragrance for winter?
For me it has to be Guerlian Insolence but that is because it's my all time favourite scent. But a truly wintry fragrance is Calvin Klein Secret Obsession.

6. Favourite Christmas Food?
It has to be turkey! I overload on turkey all year round but on Christmas day with gravy it's just amazing. But if I could I'd say Christmas dinner as a whole is my favourite!
7. What is winter weather like where you live?
The UK is always pretty rainy and varies from mild to cold in temperature. So nothing interesting. I'd actually prefer it to be colder in December so that we had at least some chance of snow before Christmas or on Christmas day - very wishful thinking I know!
8. Most worn sweater?
It's a black jumper with a white stags head that I picked up from Tesco last year.
9. Must-have nail polish this winter?
It has to be be Essie Bahama Mama which is a wonderfully rich plum shade. It just looks so glossy and chic on the nails. I do also like a lot of the NYC berry shades though which are amazing value for money at £1.50-£2.00.
10. Skinny jeans or leggings?
Leggings all the way! So comfy and easy to wear. I go through so many pairs in winter but at only £3 in Primark I make sure I have at least 4 pairs on the go.
11. Boots or Uggs?
I actually wear both. However I would never pay the price of Uggs and have some nice dark brown Rocket Dog ones that are still in perfect condition even after 3 years. Proper boots for dog walks and slouchy boots for shopping.
12. Is pumpkin spice worth the hype?
I can't say I actually know what pumpkin spice actually is, as pumpkin products really aren't that popular in the UK. Come to think of it I have never tried pumpkin or anything pumpkin flavoured.
13. Favourite winter TV show?
Game of Thrones is an amazing winter watch I would recommend to everyone, a lot of it is set in snow and the genre of it just suits winter. But I'm currently watching Breaking Bad and loving it. I took a long time to watch it to see if I liked it, but within 2 episodes I was hooked. Much like Game of Thrones it isn't for the faint hearted but I think most people would actually enjoy it! I'm only up to Series 2 so no spoilers in the comments!
14. What songs really get you into the Christmas spirit?
As I'm a huge lover of Christmas I'd have to say they all as a collective get me in a festive mood, especially when Christmas shopping and only Christmas songs are playing. I do have a guilty pleasure though, which I cringe to admit, of listening to Justin Biebers Under the Mistletoe Christmas album when wrapping presents and oh the festive feelings!
