November 30th
1 day before the acceptance of christmas cheer. One of the hardest day (in my books) to handle.
Anyway I went christmas shopping anyway..
Kingston shopping is fantastic, Kidson on one street, Topshop on the next, down an alley to LUSH then hop over the road to a bubbling christmas market, a festive atmosphere at its height, with hot mulled wine, frank Sinatra in the background and twinkling white fairy lights totted around the gorgeous victorian renovated cottages.
First I had to buy my friend her 16th birthday present (a few days late I'll admit..), so I went to Oliver Bonus (If you are unfamiliar with this shop, it is heaven for the cute vintage things you always wonder their wareabouts) and bought her a beautiful owl spinning candle, yellow notepad and some owl pins, they were super cute.
Then I had a SecretSanta present to purchase, so along i went to paperchase, *admire the rhyming*. I bought a gorgeous smelling festive candle and some wrapping paper and bags. Then I popped over to boots and grabbed a body lotion and hand food from Soap and Glory, which I kinda of wished I'd kept for myself..
Finally I bought a Nutella crepe, of course and snuggled up on a bench in the cold in my fairsle jumper, true christmas joy.
Oh and no snow appeared despite my prayers
