birthday wishlist!


sooooo it's my birthday in a few days (this Sunday- the 21st of October to be exact) ans I love reading these posts (because I'm nosy I guess) so I thought I would share what's on my birthday wishlist with you!

































1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11
Hairdryer: I used to have a really cute pink hairdryer with flowers on which I think I got for my birthday a while ago but sadly it broke so I need a new one! I'm not really bothered which because I think they're pretty much all the same!
RayBan tortoise shell 'clubmaster' sunglasses: I broke my other RayBan sunglasses when I was on holiday (sob sob) so I need a new pair! I love these ones but I might have a look on eBay to see if they have them any cheaper instead...
Puppy: my sister and I have been DYING to get a dog for years. We both have a puppy on our birthday/christmas list every single year so I thought I would put one on there anyway!
The Vaccines tickets: I've already seen them live a couple of months ago but I would love to go again! They have released their tour dates and I would love to go! I don't know if there's still any available though?!
Essie nail polish: the one in the picture is 'turquoise and caicos' I really like Essie nail polish so it's just a general thing on my wish list!
American Apparel 'galaxy glitter': this nail polish is SO pretty and there's nothing else like it! I have a bit of a 'thing' for glitter polish and I would love to receive this as a gift!
Liz Earle cleanse and polish: I've already gone through a couple of bottles of this but as it's quite expensive I would love to receive it as a gift instead as it does wonders for my skin!
AA Disco pants: after months of not letting myself try them on I persuaded myself to just see what they look like on. I now need a pair... I don't even know if they are considered 'cool' anymore but to be honest I don't care- they are amazing.
Cath Kidston purse: I'm in need of a new purse and I really like this one! Everything I have from there has lasted an age and I'm slowly but surely turning the whole contents of my bag into Cath Kidston one thing at a time!
Cath Kidston scarf: I love this scarf and I think it would be perfect for spring (even though that is months away) but it's about £45 which I think is ridiculous for a scarf (boo). I'd quite like a red tartan one too but forgot to include a photo! I saw in styleandsushi's new post that she found one in her local H&M so hopefully the English ones have them too!
Cath Kidston cardigan: I think everyone needs a cream cardigan and this one is just so soft and nice and I'm like dying for it. The only downside again is that it's about £55 (double boo) they also have it in green and burgundy which I like too but I think cream would go with more!

Anyway that's it! Obviously I'm not expecting to receive all of this as it would be very expensive but as it's christmas in a few months (can I hear a woop woop?!) my wish list is kind of joint between them!

is it your birthday soon? What's on your wish list?

16th Birthday Present!

Hi everyone,
It was my 16th birthday last week and I thought I would do a post today about what I got from my parents me! It's not the usual present for a 16 year old, but I had been wanting one for ageeees and it took a lot of persuasion but I managed to persuade my parents to get me one! And here it is:
It's a giant beanbag from elepantbeanbags.co.uk. It is soooo comfortable and I love it! I've wanted one for like two years and I'm in love with it! There are loads of different ways that you can sit on it and it's perfect for sitting on to watch T.V!

I got the jumbo one which is is that largest one, but they make other ones, including child size, dog size and cubes. They cost £169 but they are 40% off and free delivery at the moment! The delivery was very quick according to my parents and the company was good at emailing my mum about it being dispatched and stuff.
The size is 180x140cm so it takes up a lot of space, I think it is annoying my mum because it takes up so much!
There are also loads of colours to choose from. Other than the pink, I love the green one with white daisies, which is really cute!

Overall I think that these are great, and really good quality, so if you are thinking about it ask for it for Christmas if your parents don't mind it taking up so much space!

Thankyou for reading this and have a lovely day

Acessorize 'Apricot Crush' nail of the day and swatch

Hi everyone,
It was my 16th birthday on Friday and I received this gorgeous peachy orange Accessorize nail varnish from one of my friends. The colour name is 'Apricot Crush' and it comes in a 10ml size. I had never tried an Accessorize nail varnish before as I for some reason thought that they may not be very good quality and so I was very excited to try it. I am very pleased to say that I am pleasantly surprised with them. I found that it went on really well and smoothly and the colour was very opaque in two coats. It reminded me of Illamasqua 'Purity' so if you are looking for a dupe then check this out!
This is the colour in the bottle in natural light
This is the nail varnish on my nails with two coats in natural light

Overall I think that this is a great nail varnish and I will definitely be purchasing other ones in the range as there are some great colours, and I would definitely recommend it.
You can purchase them from Superdrug and they cost £4.
My friend got mine in Superdrug but I can't find it on their website, and it isn't on the Accessorize website either. They have one similar though called 'Coral Flair' if you want to check it out here is the link: http://www.accessorize.com/en/restofworld/exotic-brights-nail-polish-coral-flair/invt/88003271/?bklist=icat,4,shop,xmas,lifestyleshopcosmetics


Thankyou for taking the time to read this and have a lovely day
