The Bovary Christmas (Makeup, Nails, Our Day + Gifts I Received)

I absolutely love hearing about the Christmas celebrations that everyone else enjoyed, so here is my day.
Charlie ran around in his Santa suit on Christmas eve when I returned from a late shift at work.
Protecting his gifts on Christmas morning.
...and I was protecting mine!
I will admit that I bought this and put it under the Christmas tree for Mister Bovary. There is no way he would enter a Chanel boutique without me, so it seemed like the easier option.
Doing the right thing by Santa.
Another cute shot of Charlie because I can't help myself!
One last shot of the Christmas tree full of gifts before we took the gifts around to Mumma Bovary's.
The beautiful gifts I received this year! We didn't have a big Christmas gift wise as we've just bought the house and brought Charlie home, so low key was the go this year. Along with my beautiful Chanel Accent blush Mister Bovary bought me some NYX makeup, Disney Princess lipbalm set and an EyeTab palette.
The Chanel sample I wore on Christmas Day.
The contents of my stocking at Mumma Bovary's! Always contains a gold coin and some fruit, it's our tradition.
The Coconut lip balm ball from Colette Hayman, which is supposedly more moisturising than the EOS ones (I haven't tried those so I can't compare, but this one is lovely!)
80 colours in faux iPad form - wicked idea! Will have to test the colours and see how they fare.
The amazing tree ornament that we received from our family in America!
The stars of my Christmas Day face! NYX Butter Gloss in Vanilla Cream Pie, Chanel Accent blush, Dior Amber Diamond and Dior Fairy Golds palette. I've been wearing Fairy Golds almost every day in December, such an amazing palette.
Bovary's! I rocked that Santa hat all day long.
Mister B is pretty impressed with the gift my parents bought him!
Nails of the day weren't your traditional festive fare, but matched to my Tokito City dress. OPI Hey Baby! from the Gwen Stefani collection and Which is Witch as an accent nail.
Charlie and my family dog Senga!
A lovely tree from my sister, this flashes all different colours - I'm happy to have another decoration for our place. Mister B's family do a KK for Christmas and so my sister in law bought me a Pandora glass charm and Taylor by Taylor Swift (which was on my later list!)
Pink lips and big smiles for Christmas!
 
I would love to hear how your Christmas was?
What gifts did you receive and what blush did you wear?
