❄Xmas Wishes❄

Christmas is a time for giving, a time for sharing!

Like all people who deeply love Christmas, I love to give presents to all of my loved ones. I love going Christmas shopping one month in advance, really think about the people, put time and effort on someone's presents. It's magical! But like everyone else I also like to receive presents, a lot!
They don't have to be big presents, a simple postcard with a lovely message inside or a few pictures framed beautifully will make me feel 10 times more happy than a bigger or more expensive present that someone bought me just because they felt the need to buy me something. 
For me buying presents for your friends and family has to be done with no hurries, it has to be thoughtful!

So for all the people who are thinking about buying me something for Christmas I just want to say 2 things: only give me a present if you really mean it & it does not have to be something from a store or something a little more expensive, you can make me something. If it's made with love than it will be perfect and I will treasure it for the rest of my life!

That being said, I do have a Christmas Wishlist!
In case you are curious and you want to know what's on that list, here it is!

     
Black Hat & Black Leather Gloves

Fujifilm Polaroid Camera

Urban Decay NAKED Palettes

❄Tea cups & Candles❄

Christmas is nearly here and if you love to give thoughtful presents to your loved ones then here are some ideas.
  • If one of your loved ones loves tea you can buy them tea cups, tea sets and tea bags. Nothing better than a cup of tea on a cold winter day!
  • For people who love to write, cute notebooks and pens are the perfect gift!
  • For that cousin that is always reading something, a couple of books will do the job!
  • Then there's the people who love to pamper themselves... Perfumes, lotions, bath bombs, face masks and more are the best option!
  • Movies, series collections and music are also a perfect idea for a gift. There's a big variety of genres so there's definitely something for everyone!
  • Candles are also a good idea. The house instantly becomes more cozy and the smell is pretty delicious!
  • Pajamas are never enough. Buy Christmas inspired ones for those people who just love Christmas like they love their lives!
  • For people who love the "cooler fashion", beanies, hats, scarves and gloves are a good idea!
  • Then there's that girl (or boy) in the family who just loves makeup. A few lipglosses or maybe even an eyeshadow pallette will put a bright smile on her/his face!
  • Is there someone in the family who has a massive collection on bags? If so give her/him another bag! Another one to had to the collection!




Here are 10 great ideas to give to your loved ones! They're not very hard to get and not very expensive which is good if you have a lot of people to buy presents for!
Happy Christmas and Good Christmas Shopping!

Series: All About Me

Hello everyone!
Being only 18 I never thought I'd experience some of the things I have and I know that when you're as young as me - meaning that you have school and all those sorts of worries and responsibilities - it is not easy to balance "having a life" and trying to cope with some of the things I'm going to talk about. So for that reason I decided to share my experiences with anyone who wants to read them to maybe find some comfort or inspiration.

This will be a 6 episode series. I will be talking about the following topics:
  • Anxiety
  • Eating Disorders
  • Body Issues and Being Overweight
  • Depression
  • Confidence and Self-Esteem
  • Motivation
If you want to know my experiences but you don't feel like reading all these blog posts - I know how you feel, I sometimes feel like that too! - be sure to subscribe to my Youtube channel where I will be uploading a video on each topic and all of those will be on a playlist called "All About Me".

Also the uploading schedule on my channel will be matching my posting schedule here on my blog so that both videos and posts are up at the same time. Once this series is over my uploading schedule will go back to normal, 2 videos per week, on Wednesdays and Sundays.

If you only want to know about a specific topic make sure you follow me on Twitter because I will be letting you know the order of the blog posts and videos and the days they go up.

That is all for now. Hope this series is helpful even if just one person. Talk to you in a few days.
Love,
Carolina Rosalie ♥

Dream Lands

I love to travel and one of my main goals in life is to travel and see as much of the world as I possibly can. I have plans made up in my mind of how the things would go and it is all bright and wonderful. But in the real world I've got to make real plans and the first step is to choose the places I want to visit. And here are some...

Mykonos, Greece

Santorini, Greece

London, England

Rome, Italy

New York, USA.

San Francisco, USA.
