12 Days of Christmas Swop: Day 5

Day 6 of the 12 Days of Christmas Swop hosted by Juanita and Chloe.

Today is day 5 of the Christmas swop! I opened up my fifth gift from Teresa.


Let's see what the note says!


Sadly it is illegal for her to mail me nail polish. But the substitute is still really awesome!


I really love the nail jewel. Can you believe I don't have any! I love that they are different shapes too!! Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings!!

12 Days of Christmas Swop: Day 4

Day 4 of the 12 Days of Christmas Swop hosted by Juanita and Chloe.

Today I opened the 5th gift from Teresa. 



What pretty packaging. I love the cupcake ribbon. Here is what the note says. 


Let's see what is inside!


I love the Christmas packaging! So cute. :D It smells nice too! If you are familiar with Bath and Body Works I think it sort of smells like the Cucumber Melon scent. I like that it is a really light lotion good for when your not at home. Going to stick it in my purse! I'll leave the sticky ones I have have for home use!

12 Days of Christmas Swop: Day 2

Day 2 of the 12 Days of Christmas Swop hosted by Juanita and Chloe.

Today I opened the 2nd gift from Teresa. It looks like it is wrapped in a dress patten wrapper. How cute!!


Let's see what the note says, "Something to keep your hair looking shiny during the holiday season xoxo" Aww let's see what it is.


Now let's take a look at what it is! A daily shine serum from Avon. Very neat! I will be giving this a try tomorrow after my shower! I love shiny hair!


See you all again tomorrow. 

12 Days of Christmas Swop: Day 1

As I said at the beginning of the month. I am participating again this year in a 12 Days of Christmas Swop hosted by Juanita and Chloe. If you want yo see what happened last year you can check out my posts from December 2013.

This year my package is from Teresa she sent it from New Zealand. Last year I actually sent her the Christmas Swop package. This year I sent it to the South to April. 




So for day one I pulled out the appropriate gift. 


And it was a pair of black socks with cute ruffles. And nail beads to dip my nails in! Teresa follows me on Instagram so she knows I love to do my nails!! Thank you!



See you again tomorrow. Mauer says hello too.

12 Days of Christmas Swop 2013

Because I only seem to blog one month a year. As soon as my package arrives, I will be blogging about my 12 Days of Christmas Swop package coming from Adventures of a Girl from the Naki. Last year it was so much fun!

I will also be doing a 12 days of Christmas manicures. Unfortunately, I am too stressed for Advent Calendar nails this year. Which is a shame because I really did like it last year!

And for the past year, most of my nails, shopping, cat and life is on instagram. My username is allibally. I always preferred photos as my medium and not writing. There is plenty to see there!

My goal for the new year is to blog more. I now have an iPad that I use for most of my photos. So time to crack open the blogger app and a Bluetooth keyboard I will receive got Christmas.

12-Days-Xmas-Swop: Day 11

I'm a bit late on these. Unfortunately, things have been really hectic here in Chicago.

A really cute pink package with heart stickers.


Inside was a nice neutral eyeshadow product from Maybelline! Perfect! As you noticed I have a huge nail polish obsession, but my make-up one is just as large! Within the next two weeks I'll be heading to Ikea to buy a storage piece just for make-up!

12-Days-Xmas-Swop: Day 8

Day 8! Mauer wanted  to help today. What a sweetie.


Chloe wrapped this one up with a cute bunny sticker!


Inside I found a ear cap charm. Took me a minute to put two and two together! haha


See pops into the headphone jack! How cute! I used to keep a charm thing on my first cell phone but all the ones after that didn't have a hole for the sting. It's nice that someone thought about making things like these now!

12-Days-Xmas-Swop: Day 6

Day 6... halfway through the gifts. :( Chloe has done a great job so far!


I wonder what is in here?




Extremely adorable space stickers! I used to buy stickers all the time, but stopped around the time I moved to Switzerland. (Way too expensive there). I'm going to need rekindle sticker buying. :)



I love the little space boy
