Warm Cosy Blankets are an absolute must. When I picture Winter I think of being sat near an open fire with a cup of hot chocolate wrapped up in a blanket. Blankets are also essential if you don't want to turn the heating on all the time and they look super cute at the end of your bed.

Following on from warm blankets, a hot water bottle is also a must. Getting into a nice warm bed is one of the best feelings when it's absolutely freezing outside. 

A good lip balm is a necessity during winter because, well no one wants chapped lips! My current favourite is Blistex Moisture Max Balm and I'll be posting a review of this soon.

Fairy lights and candles are pretty much an 'essential' all year round for me, but in Winter they make a room look so much more festive. Primark have some lovely ones that are so inexpensive if you're looking for some!

Fluffy socks are definitely a winter essential, I'd wear them all the time if I could! They just make me feel so much more cosy and they're obviously so comfortable as well!

Finally my last winter essential is oversized jumpers. Nothing is better than a comfy, cosy jumper and they go with everything as well. 

I also prefer winter fashion to summer fashion as I love being able to wear oversized jumpers paired with skinny jeans and boots, perfect!

What are your winter essentials? I'd love to know!

I can't be the only one who gets excited about Christmas as soon as we've passed Bonfire night?! I absolutely love Christmas and I'm already getting ready to decorate my room.

Cappuccino // Starbucks Toffee Nut Latte // Costa Salted Caramel Latte

I absolutely love the Christmas and seasonal menus at Starbucks and Costa and I also bought the cutest mug from Poundland so I can feel festive whilst drinking my cappuccinos in my room. Having a festive mug just makes hot drinks taste that much better. This owl mug from John Lewis is also really cute and only £5.

Fairy lights or actual Christmas lights are a definite must have for the festive season as they just brighten up a room (quite literally) and they also make the room look more cosy. You can get 100 fairy lights from Tesco for only £6 which is a bargain.

Spending a day in bed all snuggled up with a hot drink watching my favourite films such as Harry Potter and The Holiday. 

Lighting candles to make my room smell like Christmas. Even though I'm not allowed candles in my uni room I'll be lighting candles in my room when I'm at home on my Christmas break.
