Blogmas Day Sixteen: My Favourite Festive drinks ☕

• My Favourite Festive Drinks •

I love a Coffee or drink from a Coffee shop and especially the festive flavours around at Christmas time.

So, here are some of my faves…

Costa: Terry’s Chocolate Orange Hot Chocolate

This was yummy.

If you were one of the first wave of people who ordered this you also got a Terry’s choc orange segment with your drink.

This was a really, yummy, creamy hot choc… it could have done with a little more orange flavouring though!

Costa: After Eight Mint Hot Chocolate

This is my favourite festive drink by far.

Because what’s more festive than a hot chocolate.

And the mint syrup is super festive too.

Me and my twin sister get this every year, its sooooo good.

I think it’s usually just called a mint hot choc but, it’s been branded around After Eight Mints this year… I could be wrong though (it could always have been)… anyway, you also got a After Eight Mint on the side of your drink.

Again, I think there were limited number of these.

Starbucks: White Mocha Frappe with Peppermint Syrup

This is a new discovery this year thanks to Zoe Suggs Vlogmas! & my sisters recommendation.

The White Mocha Frappe is super delish and flavourful on it’s own, and the peppermint flavour makes it super festive.

It’s a really tasty drink.

This is great if you prefer a cooler, refreshing drink.

I’m really hoping I get a chance to try the Caffe Nero ‘Salted Caramel Latte’ & their ‘Mint Hot Choc’ before the christmas season is over!

Caffe Nero is my fave.

What’s your favourite festive drink???

Until Next Time,

Roseanne 🙂

Late night shopping!🛍️: Blogmas day 19

Hi guys!

Last Thursday me and my sister Sarah decided to brave the streets of our home town for some late night shopping. With only 11 days until Christmas (on the Thursday) we needed to get the rest of the presents that were left on our lists.

Armed with our lists and shopper bags we headed to Primark first. I’m pretty sure time speeds up in there and by the time we got out we were in much need of a break!

We stopped off at Costa to have our favourite festive drink (& our first one of the festive season!!) their Mint hot chocolate. IT IS AMAZING!!

We always have these at this time of the year and they always make us feel super festive.

Re-fueled and ready we were off to grab the last few bits that we could before the shops closed.

I managed to get over half of the items on my list which I though was pretty good going, We went in for round two on Saturday and I am glad to say that all my Christmas shopping is now FINISHED! Hurrah!

 

Have you finished your shopping or are you a last minute buyer?

 

Until next time,

Roseanne 🙂

November favourites 

I love reading/watching favourites posts & videos so I thought I would do one again for November. 

Can I just say, how is it December already?!? this year has gone so quickly, although Christmas is my favourite holiday so I’m not complaining 🎄

Here goes!

First up, 

Cosy jumpers!

Great for this chilly time of year, I got this lovely Oatmeal coloured one from Primark for £12.

It’s got alternating ribbed stripes and I bought it in the size bigger than I am so it is oversized and cosy.

My next favourite is along similar lines, bobble hats! I’m not usually a hat person but I have been loving these ones as the weathers got colder and they look so cute.

I picked this one up from New look a couple of years ago and love the flecks of pinks and purples. Great for keeping you head and ears toasties.

I have also been loving Costa’s new Christmas menu. I was so happy to see that they have brought back the Mint hot choc. Whenever me and my sister are in town we always get one to keep us warm as we look round the shops, it makes you feel so festive!

I’ve also really been enjoying Salty and sweet popcorn. I’m not usually one for popcorn choosing chocolate first but I have loved having this as a snack this month. The salty and sweet combo is such a winner. 

These Sunbites popcorn packs are super yummy and great for me on Slimming World as a medium bag is 6 syns and the multi pack bags are only 2.5! 

Some beauty favourites of mine this month are …

The Collection lasting perfection Concealor in Shade 2 ‘Cool Medium’ This concealor is amazing, the coverage is perfect and it’s a bargin at only £3.99.

I use this one on my face to cover any blemishes so ‘Cool Medium’ is a good shade for me. My sister uses Shade 1 ‘Ivory’ for under her eyes and loves it too.

I love Barry M nail varnishes and I’ve been loving their Gelly Hi-Shine range.

This colour is ‘Black grape’. It’s a lovely dark grungy colour that is almost black but has a tinge of navy to it. 

I had to include the film Fantastic Beasts and where to find them!

I of course love it and me and my sister have been a few times already 🙊 it’s so magical and it’s great to be immersed back into the magical world. Don’t miss it, it’s amazing.

And finally, some books! I’m such a bookworm so I thought I’d share a couple that I have been enjoying with you…

I love Zoella’s latest novel in her series , it’s called ‘Girl Online: Going solo’ I’m really getting stuck into it, definatly give this a look.

‘Sleepless in Manhattan’ By Sarah Morgan. These are such an easy read and are really cool as they are set in NYC. 

I’ve got  next two waiting for when I finish Zoella’s novel.

So those are my November favs! I hope u I’ve enjoyed this post 👍

What have you been loving this November?
