Its beginning to look a bit like Christmas



Instagram pictures: 1) Snowflakes on my tree. Those are the first snowflakes I could find onn my entire life/ 2)Wrapping The Gentle One´s presents/ 3) Huge Christmas Day dessert/ 4) Sparkling red nails/ 5) Nut latte at Starbucks/ 6) Early gifts with black orchid scent.




Although this year The Gentle One and I could not head Spain for Christmas due to some logistic issues, we decided having the most amazing holiday in many years and not to let the nostalgy in, nu-uh!
And you know what? We´re totally rocking it! 
After all, it´s not that easy to put the fun out when you´re living on a huge city full of interesting places to go, and exciting things to do. 
So we got the whole pack: a lovely tree, good food, lots of city outings and yes, even the Christmassy carols (!).
Michael Bublé, people, THAT kind of seasonal madness.
So I am making a little sum up of my week here. Many of you might recognize some pictures from my Instagram account (Christmas round ups too? I went totally crazy!) but also some other impressions I didn´t share.

So fasten your silver belt (oh Golly! I´m making Christmas jokes...) and enjoy the views!

You know Christmas is a complete success when you eat twice your weight on candy.


 Also when you go to so many exciting places that your feet feel sore.



 And of course, when you can just go shopping to the English-American shopping centre and get some of your Christmassy favs: Whittard of Chelsea chocolate and Yankee Candle seasonal scents.


So tell me darlings, did you have a nice Christmas Day?

    1. I know exactly what you mean: Christmas fragances have the power to make you feel better, even if you had a hideous day. I don´t know why is that. Maybe because they make you evoque home...

    1. I hadn´t been feeling too Christmas in the last few years. I think it was because all the stress I was carrying over my shoulders. However, this year I feel more "myself" again. I suposse that brought the seasonal joy back to my life ♥

    1. Oh, thank you so much ♥ I always forget aobut taking close pictures of it to share here! It´s a pity because it is all made of silky jaquard and the buttons are silvery antiques. I will remember to do a good photoshoot with it any time soon.
