Our Christmas has been lovely as we've spent time with family and friends. I usually post the gifts I receive, and this is what I've received this year:

A Sanex deodorant (without parabens or aluminium chlorohydrate), a shower gel with olive oil (and without parabens and perfume) and the Lambretta wristwatch from T., and an olive oil (hand) cream, some shoe cream and the DVD, The Kids Are Alright, (from a Christmas present game), Lise Septimus Krogh's Italiens hjerte from my parents-in-law, the Avène Extremely Gentle Cleanser from my sister and brother-in-law, and, last but definitely not least, the Kenwood Classic Chef KM331, which was given to both T. and myself by his parents, his sister and brother-in-law and his grandmother. Wow, I'm spoiled!

Yesterday, we watched Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland as it was broadcast on television and it was just right for T. and myself since we were rather tired from the journey. Some Chinese take-away in addition to this made the evening into pure leisure.

The Christmas season has almost passed, but I can't help but bringing in a dash of red before it's completely over. The bed linen, the dress and the knitted sweater can all be found at H&M. The necklace can be found at Zazzle, the brooch is private, and Zakes Mda's Heart of Redness can be found at Amazon.

H&M have their winter sale at the moment and while browsing the website the following rather wintery outfits caught my attention.

The turtleneck knitted sweater, the corduroy trousers, the woolen cardigan, and the knitted scarf all seem warm and comfortable at the moment. The perfume, White Woods, was found at Lyko. The shoes from Rocket Dog are private as is the bracelet.
