I guess if I am being honest with myself, I must admit that I have a new addiction.
Earlier in the year I noticed that I was buying pretty make up colours on a regular basis and for now real need, which had lead me to owning over 85 eye shadows and 35 lipsticks.
After calculating how much that little addiction there must have set me back, the shock made me create a deal with myself that I wasn't allowed to buy any more make up until 2013. This has been hard but alas, I managed to kick this addiction with success.
Nonetheless, I have now managed to replace this addiction with a new one. Without realising it for a while, I have been obsessing over Xmas decorations! It's all I talk about and now I can't go into a shop without looking at their decorations for sale.
I have a vision in my head, which is focused on my plans for 2013 which involve ensuring I am in my own place with my first ever Christmas Tree that I will get to decorate myself and I have loads of ideas on how I want this to be decorated.
I am not your usual girl and I am certainly not a perfectionist. The word that often gets used to describe me to people is 'quirky' and I think that is a fair reflection of me. In fact, on the subject of perfection, it is actually something I am against. I am not a perfect person but I do relish in knowing that I am unique and that you will never meet a person like me. Don't get me wrong, I am not something who laughs in the face of convention and walks around with blue hair, but I like to be discreetly unconventional so that only the true people who know me best, know the real me.
And so, this theme has followed with my new obsession for my Christmas Tree for 2013. Neat, colour coordinated baubles and lights are so not my thing. I find it all rather boring and unimaginative. My tree is going to reflect me - it's going to be a little crazy, with lots of colour, shapes and textures which all comes together to make something unique but beautiful.
I have started buying these decorations, with lots of mismatched and colourful random decorations that are bespoke and different and will be buying even more in the January sales. Sometimes I just get the individual decorations out to look at as I am so excited about Christmas 2013 in my own place. It's a nice little thought.
And when my obsession with buying Xmas decorations is complete.....who knows what I will move onto next.
