This Years Christmas List

Hey,
So, this post is so that you guys can learn a bit more about me and what better way to do that than showing you what I've been asking for this Christmas :]
I don't usually ask for much for Christmas because my friends know me so well! I love to see what they surprise me with every year! But I do have to help my parents out a lot around Christmas, it seems that even after living with me for 23 years, they still have no idea what I am interested in...
So, with out further a do, these are a few things I have had my eye on this year:
Fly London Norton Nule Boots
I wear A LOT of boots, I think 90% of the time I wear over the knee socks and mid-calf boots. Sadly my Rocket Dog ones are slowly falling apart and I am in need of a new pair. I saw these in Schuh and fell in love <3 they are the perfect height and they look great with any outfit!
The only downside to them is that they are leather... I try very hard to not to buy any sort of animal product, but it is difficult with shoes. I also find that synthetic materials don't last as long either, so this time I have made an exception...sorry :(

Sewing Machine
As you may know from watching my You Tube videos, I like to enter cosplay competitions and you can't be a cosplayer without your own sewing machine! Until now I have been sharing one with my Mum but in August this year I moved in with my boyfriend, so sharing it has become a problem. I haven't specified what model I want, I just want one that will allow me to do simple stitching and isn't too expensive!


'The Infernal City' by Grey Keyes
I am a massive Elder Scrolls geek XD I am soooo addicted to Skyrim and my plan over the Christmas is to replay Oblivion as magic-wielding mage character! But I have always been fascinated with the Elder Scrolls world, I think this book mainly focuses on Tamriel and the wars wagered within it, I'm not big on reading but I think this is definitely a book a won't be able to put down.

Guild Wars 2 on PC
I am very excited to announce that very, very soon, after several years, I will be returning to PC gaming!!! It's been 5 years since I had a PC capable of running games but (thanks to my amazing boyfriend) I will finally have my very own gaming PC ^_^! So I will be back on Steam trying out the Dota 2 beta, playing a bit of Team Fortress 2 for a bit of nostalgia and I will be trying a few new games like League of Legends and hopefully (if I get it for Christmas *fingers crossed*) Guild Wars 2! I've seen the art style, the game play and the character customization for this game, it just looks beautiful and I would love to give it a try <3


Play Arts Kai Tali-Zorah vas Normandy
Oh my gosh I was so excited when I saw Play Arts were releasing this! I love figures, I have a huge collection of them! At the moment a lot of them are in storage until we can get a display cabinet for them, but the Play Arts Kai figures are by far the most beautiful! Although they aren't as expensive as Hot Toys figures they are still a little pricey, so I don't really expect to get this for Christmas. Tali is my favourite character from Mass Effect, but I would be equally as happy with a Fem Shep figure too :]


Blue Winged Platform Trainers
Yes...more shoes... I saw some like these on Tumblr the other day and thought they were so cute! I would really love a pair! The only downside is that, as I mentioned above, I probably spend 90% of my time wearing boots. I would definitely wear these on they days off in the summer though, my birthday is in July so maybe I will ask for them for my birthday :]
I just love cute and quirky fashion, I am also a very colourful person!

I think that is everything :] there isn't a massive amount of things I want but these are the ones that really stuck in my mind. I hope you enjoyed reading this and that you have learnt a little about me! Let me know what you want for Christmas, I'd love to know :]
Bye x
