Getting Christmassy! - Part One

Hello sweeties! Everybody's ready for Xmas? Because that's what we're gonna talk about today! YAY! I don't know you all, but I simply LOVE Christmas. I reckon it's my favourite holiday. I love the eve, I love the party, I love the food and mainly, as we are in a fashion blog, I love christmas fashion! (No, I'm not talking about the Santa's costume, neither the Rudolf's). So, I'm here to inspire you to get as christmassy as possible and get in the spirit! This post will be divided in two parts. In this one, I'm gonna talk about clothing and eating, and in the second one, it's time to house decoration and songs. Let's get it started!

First: Clothing!

If you're facing the winter time, you'll certainly need a warm jumper or sweater. Why don't you try a Christmas-themed one? Come on, it's fun, warm and cheap! Have a look on some of the options:

They're so wearable, oh my God, I can't even. Besides jumpers, Primark is selling Christmas-themed trousers and, for the adventurous, it is a fun and warm option! Have a look on them:

Cute, aren't them?

Second: Eating!

We all know Christmas is a time when we cannot avoid eating as much as fat pig. (CONFESS IT) I know, we're all in this together. Cookies, chocolate, dried fruit, nuts, turkey.......... all that stuff that drives us crazy.  And, just to keep the traditions, this year won't be any different. I'll teach you one of my favourite Christmas snack, which is: Snowball Cookies! There they are:

THEY'RE DELICIOUS.

Here's the recipe, which I've taken from www.momswhothink.com! Thank you, moms!

Ingredients:

1 cup butter
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar for decoration

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Cream the butter with 1/2 cup of the confectioners' sugar and the vanilla. Mix in the flour, nuts and salt.
3. Roll about 1 tablespoon or so of dough into balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 15 minutes. Do not allow these cookies to get too brown. It's better to undercook them than to overcook them.
5. While cookies are still hot roll them in confectioners' sugar. Once they have cooled roll them in confectioners' sugar once more.

I hope you all enjoy the tips and, if you try to make the snowball cookies, let me know if you've liked them in the comments below! 
See you soon and remember: GET CHRISTMASSY!
