This is by no means a beauty blog and it’s not going to turn into one, but I found this list of questions on another blog and thought it would be fun to fill it in.
1. Favourite winter nail polish?
Despite buying several nail polishes this year, including the Ciate advent calendar, I struggle to find the time to apply them. I’m hoping to make time tomorrow, however, to apply my Barry M red glitter polish, which I love as it reminds me of the ruby slippers.
2. Favourite winter lip product?
I’m loving my Vaseline Crème Brulee which I had left over from last year. It’s really moisturising and tastes yummy.
3. Most worn winter clothing piece?
I love my Victorian style winter coat from The Dark Angel. It’s amazingly warm as it’s floor-length and made of wool. I wear it as much as I can, but it’s so warm I can only really get away with it when the weather is really cold.
4. Most worn winter accessory?
I’m really into owls this year. I bought an owl hat and gloves from Primark and I love them: cute as well as warm.
5. Favourite winter scent/candle?
I don’t really use candles, although lots of people I know rave about Yankee Candles and I’d quite like to give them a try. I’m obsessed with Lush and like to wear two of their limited edition perfumes at this time of year: Snow Showers, which smells like Buck’s Fizz, and Snowcake, which has an almond scent.
6. Favourite winter beverage?
A nice glass of mulled wine is always a winner, particularly when sitting inside an old-fashioned pub on a wintry evening.
7. All time favourite Christmas movie?
I love It’s a Wonderful Life, which always makes me cry. The Muppet Christmas Carol is brilliant too. Which reminds me – I haven’t watched it yet this year!
8. Favourite Christmas song?
‘Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas’ by Judy Garland. There are other decent versions of this song, but none as brilliant as hers.

9. Favourite Christmas food/treat?
I always eat far too much chocolate at this time of year, including the white chocolate Toblerone I always get in my Christmas stocking. I also love the garlic roulade that my mam and dad get for the cheese board. It’s so fattening I won’t let myself eat it at any other time of year, but I make up for it during the week between Christmas and New Year when I practically devour the whole thing myself.
10. What is your favourite Christmas decoration this year?
I bought my parents a William Shakespeare decoration, which they liked. I’m rather fond of it too.
11. What is at the top of your Christmas wish list?
I’ve been very organised or very naughty (delete as appropriate) and bought my own Christmas presents, which my parents are going to give me the money for. Therefore I don’t expect any surprises on Christmas day: I just want a bag of chocolate coins in my stocking, as Christmas isn’t Christmas without them!
I hope everyone has a lovely Christmas, and best wishes for 2013.
