S & B lovely Xmas presents

[JaceLancs]

After all the negative threads on AIBU feel free to share your happiness with gifts you gave or received
From me - DD loved her diamond earrings and a scarf I bought from a charity shop
DS happy with Fahrenheit eau de toilette and new trainers
I loved very nearly everything - top spot went to a new diamond ring and a bangle

@meltingmyhead it's a brand called Esska, they do lovely boots and party shoes.

Thank you!

@tappitytaptap Esska. They have a sale on now...

@Tartifletti , are they these ones? I'd be happy too!

Dd1 was happy with the dress I got her from &OtherStories, which is a black velvet mini with white beaded under-top, made from recycled fibres, her black Uniqlo hoodie and an Urban Decay eyeshadow palette.

Dd2 liked her cardigan in black and white geometric shapes that she had admired in the window of a local small boutique (don't know the brand, sorry). Also a lot of nose jewellery.

Dd2 got me a turquoise and silver bracelet - a charity shop find. I also got a leopard shawl/wrap from M&S and 2 necklaces (but these are cheating because I bought them for myself then got other people to wrap and give me). And SIL got me Perles de Coco perfume from &OtherStories.

From dh I got Tom Ford private blend rose prick perfume and huda burning cherry perfume , as well as a tatty Devine necklace to add to my collection. I also got a Laura mercier ambre vanille gift set, a Natasha denona dream eyeshadow palette and some Byredo slow dance perfume. I love perfume as you can probably tell

@DuchessOfSausage the very same!

An Anthropologie Pilcro bear cardigan from my parents - I'd seen it weeks ago and couldn't justify the cost but really regretted not buying it, I hadn't mentioned it to anyone, but on Christmas Day there it was! I love it!

A Celia B Karisimi dress from my Dad (he always buys me one thing specifically from him, it's a tradition from years ago when I was little and he was always working abroad. We'd shop together for my Mum's presents the week before Christmas and I'd get to choose one thing too. He has some health conditions now which means he doesn't have the mobility to come with me anymore, which I miss desperately, but he always makes sure I choose myself something anyway ❤).

Also a Mac gift set, which is fab, a great new dressing gown, which I love, and some beautiful, delicate gold and silver leaf earrings from my best friend's shop. Absolutely delighted with my pressies and feeling very lucky.

I got given this and am just running a bath with it. Smells amazing.

I got some lovely snuggly sheepskin slippers which are sooo cosy; a Gucci lipstick which has the most beautiful packaging (and the colour’s lovely too 😀) and some aromatherapy associates bath oils. And a gorgeous Neom candle from DD which she chose and bought herself. Feeling very lucky and enjoying them all.

I had some lovely gifts:
Neom diffuset
Nappa Dori kisslock bag
Hush gold layered snake necklace
Foreo UFO masks
A beautiful British camel merino wool blanket to wear when working from home
