Stacey's Smiles

A week of December has gone by already, crazy right?! I have just a few more gifts to pick up on Sunday and then I am done with Christmas shopping and I can enjoy my evenings relaxing! I'm also taking some time off work next week and I plan to watch a lot of Christmas movies, drink lots of hot chocolate and eat a lot of Christmas cookies!

Decorating with my sister whilst she was home the other weekend! 

A little friend for my tree from Japan.

Such cute table numbers at lunch last Sunday! 

Posting my Christmas cards!

A little deer my mum gave my last year.

Happy Friday Everyone!!! I hope you all enjoy your weekend!

Gift Guide for the Beauty Lover

bare Minerals Get Started Kit US/UK £49, Smash Box Photo Finish Hydrating Primer from $17, Urban Decay Naked Palette US $50/ UK £36, Josie Maran Holiday Argan Oil $48, Kiehl's Stocking Stuffer £18, Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour in Malice £18,  Miss Dior from $63

I'm not much of a beauty junkie yet but my collection has been growing and this year I've been trying out some new brands. I'd love to receive any of these products to try out (I love the idea of this stocking stuff to introduce you to a brand) and Miss Dior is a long tern favourite of mine already!

Christmas for the Disney Princesses

Harrods never fails to please with it's window displays, especially at Christmas and this year was no exception! When I read that the theme was going to be Disney Princesses, I knew I had to plan a trip with my sister! I don't even know what to say about the stunning dresses, from Snow White in Oscar De La Renta to Cinderella in Versace. The shoes were just as amazing with the Christian Louboutin Cinderella Shoe on display and Belle's gorgeous Valentino studded beauties! Hand's down my favourite window was Sleeping Beauty in a breath taking Elie Saab gown, the detailing was insane! If I win the lottery I want THAT dress!!! And all the little windows in between were filled with jewelled goodies to cute little friends too.

Mirror, Mirror, Who's the fairest of them all??
