12 Days of Blogmas: The Christmas Tag

Hello everyone,
it's CHRISTMAS EVE!!!
I hope you all are sipping a glass of bucks fizz, stuffing yourself with cheese pretzels and wearing cosy, Christmas knits.
I thought today's post would be something small and easy to read, so without further ado, here is my Christmas Tag:

12 Days of Blogmas: Tis the Season to Give Back

'On the sixth day of Blogmas my true love gave to me, a reminder that life isn't always a dream'
Hello everyone.
We are officially halfway through blogmas, which is so COOL. Can you believe that I managed to think of twelve festive posts?
Today I wanted to dwell on the fact that holidays, whichever you may celebrate or enjoy, can be a difficult time for some. There may be people who are lonely, living rough or simply cannot afford to celebrate. It is so saddening to me, that in 2016, there is still a huge need for donations of good will. It's been estimated that in the UK alone, around 25,000 young people will be sleeping rough over Christmas, whilst 1 in 6 people find it to be the loneliest time of the year.
Now, this post isn't encouraging you to donate hundreds of thousands of pounds, but to show that there are some really small, simple ways you can help someone this holiday season.

12 Days of Blogmas: Top 5 Festive Films

'On the fourth day of Christmas my true love gave to me, films that are Christmassy'
Hello everyone,
'12 Days of Blogmas' is well and truly underway and I really hope you're enjoying what I've been writing. I figured we all have a favourite Christmas film, which we replay on a loop every December. From classics to more modern movies, sitting in front of the TV with your family and a few tins of chocolate is a Christmas tradition. If you want to know which movies have made my 'Top Five Festive Films' list, then keep on reading!

12 Days of Blogmas: Top 5 Christmas Adverts

'On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me, TV and something blogmassy'
Hello everyone, yesterday I posted my first blogmas post, and I am back with another. Today I thought I would write something a little bit shorter, but with the added bonus that you get to watch stuff!
We all have a favourite Christmas advert. This year I am loving the John Lewis one, obviously because it features a dog and fox. I am not entirely sure if this Christmas Ad addiction is a global thing or something just here in England. But, I am going to share my top five favourite Christmas adverts below, just to spread some festive fun into your day.
Disclaimer: none of these are in an ascending order xo

12 Days of Blogmas: My Letter to Santa

'On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, the first in a blogmas series!'
Hello everyone, today is the first of my twelve blogmas posts and I am so excited for you to read the posts in this series. This is my first time trying blogmas and I am really proud that I am managing to get posts out.
As it is my first post I thought I needed to write something that would be interesting to read. I am going to assume the last time any of you wrote a letter to Santa was quite a few years back, and I think some of my requests may be pretty relatable. So here goes:
