BLOGMAS DAY 13: My Favourite Places

In London at Christmas, lots of area's decorate themselves with fairy lights and various different Christmas decorations. Some places look amazing! Here are a few of my faves:

Southbank Centre- The lights are all amazing and situated next to the Thames, it is one of the most picturesque places in London! (The picture above)

The Royal Opera House- The royal opera house is one of my favourite places because every Christmas we go to the Christmas show at the opera house so it always feels very special for me

Covent Garden- At Christmas time, Covent Garden always looks beautiful with it's twinkling lights and towering Christmas displays

Regents Street- How could I not mention this one when it is so famous for it's Christmas displays! This year is not an exception, I would go check them out if you can.

BLOGMAS DAY 8: Staple Scarf

I feel like every winter you find that scarf that is staple for you all season. It is usually for me, quite a big size and a tartan pattern. The colours in this scarf are perfect because they can go with a variety of clothes. The black and white can be incorporated into a black outfit whereas the red would be perfect with a maroon accessory. I like the fringe because it adds a more interesting touch that livens up te outfit.
Tell me what your staple scarf looks like!

BLOGMAS DAY 7: Winter Scent

I wear scents all year round and this means that I usually like to make my perfumes and sprays more seasonal to change it up a little bit. In the summer I wear more floral, fruity and light scents. Then, in the autumn/winter I like to wear more spicy, musky and heavy scents. My scent of choice this year is Victoria Secret's 'Amber Romance'. It is described as a scent with 'amber and crème anglais'. I am the worst at describing scents so I wouldn't even be able to tell you what it smells like to me but for some reason it smells to me how I think that amber would smell. Yet, I don't know what amber smells like! Definitely a more sophisticated and musky scent because lots of the other scents I have an easier time describing the smell. It is long lasting but not overpowering. Lots of people say that they get a whiff of it every time I walk past and when they hug me : ) I definitely wouldn't use too much because a little can go a long way. What would you say your autumn/winter scent was this year?

BLOGMAS DAY 6: Fairy Lights

 

 

 Every year as we get closer to the darker and colder days I tend to find myself looking for all different types of fairy lights. Because of the fact that the days are getting darker more quickly we generally use lights more and fairy lights just seem like the best way to do this! They can really set the mood and are really cute and decorative. More so than overhead lights or lamps. Above you can see there are just plain bulb fairy lights and I love these ones because they are just simple and look better in the dark. This year, however, I have found myself buying more different types such as these really nice ones I have that are like clear diamonds with the bulb in the middle. As you can see I also have a n 'E' shaped light up letter. These are also really cute and I think I have mentioned this on my blog before and how it is really great to personalise your room.
Tell me about any fairy lights that you have?!?

BLOGMAS DAY 1: Blogmas with SoElla 2015

Hi! I'm going to be honest, it has been a while. Life is very busy in the autumn and the time to take photographs is very short because of the daylight problem. So I wondered what I could do to make it up to you lovelies! And I came up with the idea of Blogmas, 24 days of me! I will be publishing a new blogpost everyday for 24 days. I have decided on the hashtag #soellablogmas so that you can use it on social media to send me anything! I'm going to be getting very sore fingers, that's for sure. I hope you enjoy : )
Obviously today's was very short but I assure you there will be a huge variety of interesting posts to come!
