Christmas Jumpers under a Tenner ft Tesco, Asda, Peacocks & KarmaClothing

So over the past few years, in keeping with the modern day obsession of all things simultaneously cute, ugly, and nostalgic, we have seen the comeback of Christmas jumpers.

Like most people however I haven't been able to join in the fun because I simply couldn't justify the cost. However this year I was determined and I have compiled a list of my favourite jumpers. My only stipulation? They're all under a tenner!

1. F&F Embellished Pull Me from Tesco £7: First & foremost I've only seen this 50% offer online so I'm not sure you'd get it in store. I love it because I'm obsessed with grey and I do like a good pun. The embellishment is totally on trend too so that's another box ticked!

2. F&F Nice Baubles from Tesco £6: again, I'm pretty sure this only meets the criteria online at 50% off but it's super cute and super cheap! And black. There's not enough black at Christmas in my opinion.

3. Black Rudolph from Karma Clothing £9.99: barely scraping it under £10 (RRP'd at £12) but that Rudolph is one cute wee critter! Sizes are limited though so get in fast!

4. Women's Novelty Sweater from Peacocks £8.40: Creatively titled as you can see but I love this nod to Santa/Mrs Clause.

5. Merry Christmas Ya Filthy Animal from Ebay £7.99: I think this was the first jumper I remember seeing that really took the whole Christmas Jumper thing and made it cool. The only downside to this one is you can pretty much guarantee you're not buying from the original concept creator.

6. Christmas Musical Ho Ho Ho Jumper from Asda £12: ok it's over £10. But it's musical, it's punny, and they donate a smal amount to Save The Children when you buy it.

So that's my selection from a range of jumpers under £10-ish. I bought the F&F Pull Me as I really do love grey and it looks like a good length. Time will tell if I'm right!

I'd recommend having a look at Tesco as they currently have loads at 50% discount! And you can avoid pesky postage by using the click & collect service and getting them delivered to your nearest store.

Have you guys found any bargains that you too just have to share?

"Brand New Mint In Box"

Of the ways to describe the most premium of items in your makeup collection "Brand New Mint In Box" should not be one of them. One of my most awful habits is buying makeup and then not using it and to my even greater shame it is usually with my most expensive purchases. There is an Alan Carr joke about the extortionate price of a Spanish Onion, the punchline is "when do you save an Onion for best?" This is kind of how I feel about expensive makeup. It's so pretty and so precious that if I get up the courage to actually purchase it, I'm then usually too scared to use it. The pride and shame of this habit is these two items from Dior. The absolutely sublime Dior Skin Nude Tan highlighter which I purchased as a pre-release special edition from House Of Fraser TWO YEARS AGO has sat in box all tightly wrapped up only being shown the light to show off to my friends and family. Yes I do show off my prettiest of pretties to my friends and family...

No Halloween Costume Needed

It's become an accepted norm that once December 1st comes around the nations will don their snowflake print leggings and their novelty jumpers but so far the other seasons are lacking in their effort. Yes, Halloween is famous as being the single greatest costume day of the year but I need October to step and represent in the seasonal apparel game. Thankfully retailers have heard my inner goth cry and have come up with some seriously cute Halloween inspired items. For those who love a slogan tee you have every variation of saying that could possibly be made by rhyming witch with bitch and if you don't say every one of with Emma Roberts' attitude then you need to watch season 3 of American Horror Story immediately! Dressing with the seasons is clearly big money but it doesn't have to cost the world. Here are my choices of how to get into the Halloween spirit all under £30. Boohoo Starting with my favourites because I can! I actually bought the f
