What to wear this year

If you re like me, you'll be freaking out about what to wear for Christmas - and new years and any other event coming up. You want to look smashing and show off that you're a fabbie, but how to do that? Where to find a nice dress? Thus I give to you my suggestions for a Broke, Budget or Spender :D Starting off with the BROKE selection

Gifts for under 200

As I mentioned in THIS post, I'm a Christmasholic. Currently all I'm listening to is Radio Soft which is all about Christmas songs! Get in the spirit! My favorite part about Christmas is defiantly the gifts. I love spending hours picking out the perfect gift. Last year I found the perfect gifts on Ebay (and ill be making a guide for some Sweet Ebay gifts to) for merely 16,76$ for both! What it was? Well geek gifts. A copy of "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" and a replica of the Death Note. They both got so exited, and that made me happy! 

With certain friends I am willing to splurge and use more money than usual, and that's why i made this guide. Still well within reason but a tad more budget. There is a 300, 400 and 500 coming as well, since I do realise not everyone is as tight with dough as yours truly.

Time of giving, for the broke

Christmas. The time of love, care, lit candles in the windows and jolly smiles and peace for all men. A time of smiles, being together, good food enjoyed with those you love.

Oh and presents! Lots and lots of presents!

What can I say? I love receiving and I love giving. I already got a lot planned but DAMN its hard to keep the secret! I'm also the kind who keeps sneaking a peek on my gifts to guess whats inside, and ill be happy for a pair of socks. Just that someone wanted to give me something makes me happy

Unfortunately money doesn't grow on trees and thus finding nice gifts can be a hard when your budget is tight. I'm sure a lot of you got the same problem, so here is my personal Christmas favorites from 3 of my fave stores! Click on it to make it bigger ;)

Happy Holidays! Merry Chrismas! Feliz Navidad! Joyeux Noel! Glædelig Jul! Hyvaa joulua! Bo Nada! Kala Christouyenn! Mele Kalikimaka! Froehliche Weihnachten! Bon Pasco!
