Little Pink Christmas Tree and Secret Santa Thank Yous

On the last two Christmas days I have blogged what I wore to church, but sadly I have been stuck inside all day which is rather sad. I've got a horrible virus and even Christmas couldn't make it magically disappear. I hope you have had a less icky day than me!
At the beginning of the month I brought out my little pink tree purchased at Paperchase within Selfridges Birmingham last year. I really love their fabulous range of tree colours and sizes and this year they have had lots of lovely decorations to suit the miniature scale of the smaller trees!
The large shiny purple and pink stars were a gift and remind me of a fabulous Japanese brand called 6%DOKIDOKI's amazing hair accessories. The purple bead and star strings are both from Poundland. Then the little stars and sweeties as well as the glittery star topper and my adorable little glittery deer are from Paperchase.
I was animatedly expressing my desire to purchase a blue beaded string I had seen when my mother pointed out to me that the purple one I already had was 8m long... on a 2ft tree. I guess it's fair to say I love all things sparkly! I ended up not using the little sweeties and kept to the star theme and also didn't use the orange mini stars as it looked like one colour too many.

In this blog post I also wanted to say thank you to my Secret Santas! The first gifts seen above are from that organised by Char of t*rexes and tiaras. I received the most gorgeous belt which fits in perfectly with my love of chunky gems and is in the most beautiful blue colour which I love. I'm really looking forward to wearing it. I also received some very pretty tissues which combine florals, paisley and polka dots!
Then Ellie of Pretty Much Penniless organised a Second-hand Secret Santa which was a lovely concept. My gift came packaged in floral fabric and rik rak which was ever so pretty. Inside was a beautiful brooch in the shape of a rose. Thank you so, so much to my Secret Santas who both picked incredibly lovely things which I adore.
