wishlist
by kellebelle
I’m feeling very festive all of a sudden!
Could it be the fact that Christmas is only 20 days away?! Or because of all the snow we’ve had? Or the lovely lights on around Dublin? Well yes to all of those!
I wandered around town for a little bit yesterday before I got my hair done – as my readers will know the last time I got my hair cut the hairdresser botched it up and it was completely uneven – and it was just so lovely and festive around the place!
I absolutely love Style Club. Stacey in there showed me that the left side of my hair was in fact three inches longer than the right! So I got just under four inches chopped off yesterday to even it up *eek* ! Quite a lot when you’re trying to grow your hair as long as it will grow! I blame disney – particularly the little Mermaid for my love of long hair!
Luckily it still looks the same length – bahahhaaha, Kellebelle: 1, Hair: 0 – it’s just cut properly now! Also got my roots dyed darker (I like the grungey look a la Rachel Bilson!) and a half head of blonde balayage done by Lucy – absolutely love it! If anyone is looking for good hair stylists in Dublin I’d definitely point them towards Style Club’s Stacey for cuts and Lucy for colour!
Anyhoo! I’ve been flicking through the December issues of some magazines and love the pages dedicated to Christmas Wishlists (Stellar and Marie Claire have great ones!) so decided I’d do my own!
Santa if you’re reading this blog I have been very good this year – I even got up early today (on a Sunday!) to tidy my bedroom!
As you can see I am a fan of books and toys for Christmas! I am a child at heart! I love board games tho’ – the Game of Life and Monopoly are my absolute faves! When I was little I used to get a different boardgame every Christmas… including some dodgy boring ones like Discover Ireland!
I was in Brown Thomas the other day – oh wow – their Christmas section and Marvel Room are stunning. They have the BEST collection of books ever. I spent most of my time looking at the childrens books – I just love the illustrations! They had an ah.may.zing Alive in Wonderland book collection – I want it!
Now to win the lotto…
The deets: Top 5 images – Urban Outfitters, DVD/Books – Amazon, MAC make-up, PJs/Shoes/Turban – Topshop, Sylvanian Families/Dog/Game Of Life – Smyths Toys
I’ve been going to Style Club for almost two years now! I go to Dearan for cut and colour, he’s amazing. My next appointment’s on Friday and I can’t choose whether to chop or grow…also, those goggie cupcakes are amazing. Sian. x
Gah – yeah I am a bit late jumping on the Style Club bandwagon – they are great tho! Very friendly there too!
Eep, chop or grow? Tough decision… I would go for grow tho’ I’m all about long hair at the mo! Wish mine would grow quicker!

oh my – that owl cushion is just too cute! – I noticed that Boots had some owl vintage things (with make-up!) for cheap!
x
I love owls! And quirky type cushions! Avoca have amazo ones… but pricey!
Must check out Boots too!
x
Snap with the Topshop shoes!!! I want them so bad! x
They are bootiful!

Can’t believe there was that big a difference in the length!! I contemplated Style Club but it’s a bit expensive and plus I don’t like getting my hair cut so far away from home in case anything goes wrong…which it usually does! lol!
I know – shocking difference! I have been going around the place for months with uneven hair. Fail!
Style Club are very good for running 20% discounts – makes a HUGE difference to the price!
I am always so scared bout getting my hair cut too… even more so now after UNEVEN-Hair-gate-2010 as I’m calling it.

I love Sylvanian families! I donated all mine to charity a few years back… I do miss them!
xx
Awh… that’s so nice!
I think mine are still in the attic somewhere – they’re so cute tho aren’t they?! I’d love that little house for them!
x
A cake stand – NOW I know what my life has been missing. I love cake stands and tea sets, all the afternoon tea shebang!
Bahaha – I know, they’re amazing aren’t they?! I love the tea sets in Queen of Tarts in Dublin… so pretty! I saw fab tea sets in Ted Baker too… Chhh chiiing tho!
x
Ooh I’m attempting something similar with my hair in a few weeks… I just terrified of it looking cheap! Great list of list of gifts – I always wanted a Sylvanian Family.
Oooh love that cupcakes recipe book. Except I have no oven here in Korea. *cries* Nice list Kel! x
the style club? ANOTHER reason i NEED to move to Dublin! I wana see the pictures missus!! I have hair envy and I havent even seen it yet! .x.
Ohhhh love the wish list. Also! Highly reccommend the Cruella DeVille beauty powder from MAC it’s amazing!! I wish I had bought more than one, I’m going through it like it’s my job!
Fun pictures doll, my fave is the tea cup!

Sylvanian families! I want to start collecting them but only because I have these evil designs about their furniture and stuff. You know, for making my own miniature worlds. Haha!
Awesomely pretty wish list, m’lady. Love the cake stand. Also have yet to read Booky Wook 2!
[...] this is is my *new* hair length… it’s even again since getting it done earlier this month in Style Club! [...]
I’m about to start Booky Wook 2 as well and praaaying it lives up to its predecessor! I will never understand my love for Russel Brand and his unruly hair. Happy Christmas
