Winter Body Care

Hello, everyone! Today I went shopping and stopped at my go-to body care place, Bath & Body Works. It's been awhile since I've bought a brand new fragrance mist and body cream. When I smelled both of these though, I knew I had to recommend them to you guys! These are both brand new scents. They would make great Christmas gifts!

A Thousand Wishes-
At the beginning of the holiday season, Bath & Body released this new fragrance. All I can say about it is WOW. It is amazing. There is something so sophisticated yet, magical about this fragrance mist. Normally, I buy the travel sized fragrance mists because I am never super crazy about just one scent. I love this fragrance so much that I just had to buy the bigger bottle. A Thousand Wishes is definitely a dream come true.

Notes used: Sparkling Champagne, Twinkling Star Fruit, Golden Quince, Crystal Peonies, Purple Freesia, Gilded Amber, Almond Creme, Sugared Sandalwood, Velvet Musk

Champagne LOVE & Iced Plum- 
It was not until today when I heard about this new and limited edition fragrance Bath & Body has to offer. I LOVE it! The plum and vanilla notes makes it sweet and just a tiny bit fruity. The ultra shea body creams are wonderful to have, too. You will definitely have visions of sugar plums dancing in your head while wearing this fragrance.

Notes used: Sparkling Champagne, Iced Plum, Juicy Pomegranate, Crystal Vanilla, Sugared Musk

I must add, what makes these scents so great to buy around this time of year is that they are not only for perfect Christmas, but all of winter. Give them a try if you're looking for something new!

Who Is The Best Santa Claus?

Hey everyone! I thought that for this post I would make a list of my Top 5 Favorite Santa Clauses of All Time! Read along and see if you agree with me. This may be my top 5, but I am interested in what all of you think, too.

Let the countdown begin!

#5- Santa Claus from Rise of the Guardians

This Dreamworks film came out a couple years ago. It never really became famous, but it was still a good animated movie! The film involves many legendary folks, including the big guy himself. Yes, Santa Claus. Don't let his Russian accent and tattoos fool you. This Santa Claus is just as kind as any other. Why is he number five then? Well since the movie came out only a couple years ago, and it wasn't even super famous at that, not many people know about this Santa Claus. Still, he is undeniably cool compared to other Santas. 

#4- Santa Claus from Miracle on 34th Street 

The first release of the film was in 1947, but the remake that was made in 1994 is the one I'm most familiar with. Kris Kringle is a super helpful guy, taking the place as Cole's Santa Claus for the holidays. What's more cooler than having the real Santa around in person and not even knowing it? I hate the idea of a Santa Claus who wants publicity. Let the magic of Christmas stay a secret! 

#3- Jack Skellington as Santa Claus from Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas

So, Jack isn't exactly the right person for this job. Holding the title of Pumpkin King just isn't enough for him. But, you've got to admit he put a lot of thought into this new role of Santa Claus. With the help of his fellow Halloween Town friends, he has his own sleigh, suit, and presents to give to all the children of the world. Jack isn't a bad guy, he just celebrates Christmas in a different way. I think he deserves to be on this list because of how dedicated he was to the job! Yet, he is still better off as the Pumpkin King.

#2- Santa Claus (Scott Calvin) from The Santa Clause

Scott Calvin did not want to be Santa Claus. As much as he denied it at the beginning of the film, he really turned himself around by the end. Not only did his looks change, but his heart did as well. This non-believer became the real deal! Who knew that Scott would be such a good Santa? It's all thanks to Charlie of course, who kept pushing him to take on responsibility. Still, this Santa Claus has a good heart and ends up taking his job very seriously.

The number one Santa Claus is...

#1- Santa Claus from Santa Claus is Comin' To Town

Alright, so I have watched all of the Rankin/Bass Christmas specials, even the ones that are not as well-known. There are a few different versions of Santa depending on the cartoon. My most favorite one is Kris, later called Santa Claus, from Santa Claus is Comin' To Town. This movie touches on how the legend came to be. From the very beginning, Kris is a positive, caring, and determined guy. He doesn't let the risk of getting arrested because of a silly law scare him. His dedication as Santa Claus shows that he is perfect for the job. 

That is my Top 5 Favorite Santa Clauses of All Time!
