#21 Blogmas - Favourite Christmas Picture/Poem

Hey there!

It's definitely been a long while since I've posted content for my Blogmas series - shame on me! I've just been so busy, rushing around trying to get myself organised for Christmas - last minute shopping sprees, late night christmas marathons and tying the last ribbons on my christmas gifts! I'm always in a pickle the last week before Christmas, so apologies for the lack of blog posts!

Nevertheless, despite my manic rush to try and get things ready in time for Christmas Day, I look forward to this festive event every year. Not even the cold, bitter evenings or the winter bugs that spread during December can ruin my excitement for Christmas. I've even bought myself a little treat this year - Christmas Yankee candles of course!

#21 Blogmas - Favourite Christmas Tune

Ever since I was a young girl, I've always been a huge fan of poetry. I just loved the art of writing it and admired those who's talent I had the pleasure of reading. However, nothing really springs to mind when I picture my favourite Christmas image or poem. Therefore, I decided to choose a famous festive tune instead - Jingle Bells!

Unless you've been living under a rock, I'm sure you're all familiar with this festive little tune at Christmas! Growing up, I would listen to this song continuously on repeat for hours - always a song that puts me in the festive spirit. Hanging proudly from my Christmas tree are a pair of shiny, jingle bells, reminding me of the magic that Christmas has to bring!

Bye for now! Xxx

#4 Blogmas - Favourite Christmas Tunes

Hey there!

Ever stopped to realise what the world would be life if music never existed? Pretty damn boring - that's what! Christmas is never the same without those cheesy festive tunes that everyone loves. Shops everywhere are playing those well-known Christmas hits to pleasure the busy shoppers and I can't help, but dance along when gift hunting! Who can blame me when they're just so damn catchy?! 

#4 My Favourite Christmas Tunes

Christmas tunes never fail to put me in the festive mood - I'm just so easily pleased! Music is what I live for, I have a playlist for absolutely everything ranging from the shower to brisk walks. Despite this, I am lacking in a festive playlist and I really struggled to narrow my top 5 down - I just love everything twinkly at Christmas!

Here are my top 5 most played Christmas tunes:

1) All I Want for Christmas is You



Judge me all you want, but I think tune is a hit - infact, I've been singing it all year! Mariah Carey has such a stunning voice and I can't help, but belt this song out in the shower. There's not a year that passes by when I'm not playing this beauty!

2) Santa Tell Me



A new appearance in the list is Ariana Grande's Christmas tune - such a catchy, little jingle! I couldn't stop myself from dancing to Ariana's gorgeous voice and the video is just incredible. If you haven't heard it already, I recommend you give it a good listen - you won't be disappointed!

3) Fairytale of New York



You can't have a Christmas playlist without the famous Pouges. Christmas just wouldn't be the same without it - infact, I'm almost certain it's my most played song! Such a classic tune that never fails to excite me for this festive season...

4) Merry Christmas Everyone



As a kid, this used to be my absolutely favourite tune at Christmas and to this day, it still is - I obviously had good taste. I can't help, but skip round my house singing this every day leading up to Christmas - sounds bizarre, but I love it!

5) Away in a Manger



Sounds strange to put a hymn into a Christmas playlist, but sometimes it's nice to reflect on the origin of Christmas, even if you're not a believer! As mentioned in my first ever Blogmas post, I like to attend Christingle church services with my family and it brings me warmth whenever I sing this delicate song!

If you liked my first day of Blogmas, I would recommend you challenge yourself to this festive tag - it would be nice to read some of your posts!

Bye for now! Xxx
