1) Home Alone. And Home Alone 2. But not Home Alone 3 or 4 because they are hideous without Macaulay Culkin's little face, even if he is a childhood star who went completely AWOL.
2) Pigs in blankets. All day. I refuse to belive that they would be as tasty if anyone else in my family aside from my nan made them. Come to mama.
3) That weird cosy feeling of waking up in the morning whilst it's still dark and quiet outside when you feel like you're the only person awake like, anywhere and the only source of light is from the twinkling decorations and fairy lights on the Christmas tree. Yeah, that.
4) Red lipstick. Like, Christmas red, like 'hi I've arrived' red. Mac Rubywoo is a classic example.
5) Food. ALL the food. For approx 3 weeks before the 25th and around 2 weeks after, until reality hits and you realise it's now actually January and you haven't made any effort to eat anything green other than those triangles in a tin of Quality Streets and Sour Cream & Onion Pringles... Oops.
6) Christmas Day, obvz, which includes family, Christmas specials on BBC1... and far too many roast potatoes and Cadbury's Roses.
7) Christmas everything:

Christmas Cornflakes.
Christmas Clothes.
Christmas Bed.
Christmas Cup.
8) There's a certain candle my mum has bought every year at Christmas since I was a kid, so it's really nostalgic for me and completely reminds me of Christmas at home with my family.

9) CHRISTMAS EVE BATH. I've no idea why it's any different to any other bath but it just is. And of course new pyjamas. This year I will be using my Luxury Lush Pud and wearing these bad boys:
Although I am the COMPLETE opposite of The Grinch, it is still up there with my favourite Christmas movies because Dr.Seuss is a genius. These are from Primark - the pants were £8 and the top was £5.
10) CHRISTMAS MUSIC AAHHHHH, nothing says stressed Christmas shoppers rushing through town on 23rd December like Christmas music. That in mind, I don't know why it is so enjoyable when it comes with such a stressful connotation, but it is. To finish, here are two of my favourite ones, of course by my favourite fellas; John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
