Top stocking fillers under £5!

Hello everyone,
I really wanted to do a post today with my top stocking fillers in it. These could be things that you could either put into somebody's stocking, or if you have to do a secret Santa or if you want to give somebody something but don't want to spend much on them.

First is these absolutely lovely bracelets from Lily loves Lola.



The lovely Victoria who owns Lily love Lola really kindly sent these to me. I had been meaning to buy some bracelets off of her for ageees, but for some reason I had never got round to it. I absolutely love the owl charm, and I am wearing it now!

They are so affordable (most of them are £2), and they come really nicely packaged, and I will definitely be buying more in the new year! Please check out her shop to see more of her charm bracelets! She also knits scarves and makes earrings too which are all sold in her blog which are all lovely as well.
Victoria also has a really nice blog which I enjoy reading. You can visit her blog by clicking here.





The next thing is the Heaven and Earth pallet from MUA. You can buy these in Superdrug, or you can now buy them online. At the moment if you spend over £8, you get a free immaculate palette worth £8 with 24 gorgeous shades in it, bargain!


Next is another thing from MUA. This time it is their lipsticks. Because they are only £1, you could get a couple. They have so many different shades (as you can see, I have quite a few of them!). They are really moisturising and most of the colours are really well pigmented!



These are some of my favourite shades.


Next is a magazine. They only cost a couple of pounds, and I know most people will enjoy reading them! Quite a few of them come with free things. This one came with a free Nails inc. nail varnish worth £11, and the magazine was only £2! Bargain!


Next is some Christmas socks. I love wearing socks, and if I am inside, I am never without a pair. I like these ones because they were only £2 in Primark, and they are really cute! I love how the Rodolph's have a sparkly nose too!




Next up is a cute pair of earrings. I got these ones for my birthday, so I'm sorry I don't know the price, but I think that they are from New Look.


The next thing is St Moritz fake tan. I use this fake tan throughout the summer and I love it! For me the only difference from St Tropez, (except the price tag) is that St Moritz can have a slight biscuitish smell to it after, but this isn't too noticeable!


Next is some wintry shades of nail varnish. These are both by Barry M, and they are some of my favourite shades for winter. Apart from OPI (obviously), my favourite brand for nail varnish would have to be Barry M. This is because they have a wide range of colours, they are very affordable and they have a really smooth, creamy consistency.



The next thing is these really soft, and amazing mittens from Primark. I got these last weekend and they have helped keep my hands so warm when I have been walking to the train station at 8am this last week! I also love that they were only £3, and they had a couple of other neutral shades to choose from.



And finally is this mirror from Cath Kidston which I got this around two years ago I think. They have changed the design recently into a rectangle, but I use this mirror every single day, it has been chucked in and out of my makeup bag and there is hardly a scratch to show for it! I also only paid £2 for it!
