What I got for my birthday 2017

Tuesday 7 February 2017

Last weekend was my birthday and I turned the ripe old age of 23. I'll be honest, getting older doesn't really feel any different to me I still feel like a 16 year old except I've got more responsibilities and a few more life experiences. I was lucky enough to receive some wonderful gifts from my boyfriend and family and thought I'd share them with you. As I always say I'm not writing this to brag I just really enjoy reading these sorts of posts, and I know there are others who are as nosy as me! 
The first gift is this amazing pair of boots from my lovely boyfriend. I'd eyed these up on misguided and he was so kind to say he'd get me them for my birthday. I'm really in to the embroidery trend at the moment so these are right up my street, the roses are so cute! I've worn these boots so much already and can guarantee they'll be in next months favourites post. Ry also got me a beautiful croc print Vivienne Westwood purse with gold hardware so now I have a VW bag and purse combo! The lining of the purse is actually identical so they do kinda match. I'm very happy and grateful. The final gift from Ry is the Lots of Love gift set from LUSH. This gift set is only around for Valentine's day and contains 7 very rose and valentines scented products. I can't wait to get stuck in and use everything.
 My brothers, my dad, and my boyfriends parents all gave me money to spend on what I liked. I kept most of it but I did buy a shirt from LUSH kitchen of the botanical print. They did a random restock and I was so gutted I didn't get it last time so I HAD to pick it up! I also purchased a Vivienne Westwood shirt that I've had my eye on for a while. It's just a plain white t-shirt with a painted style print of the VW logo, very simple but I really love it. I wore it for my birthday night out and got some sort of red liquid (cider and black or cocktail) on it and was so angry with myself but luckily my mum came to the rescue with her trusty Vanish and got it out. Phew! 
The last lot of presents are from my wonderful mum. I really hate cake so every year my mum gets me a giant cookie from millie's and this year was no different. I was ecstatic to see this and very excited to eat it (sorry diet). My mum was so generous this year, she gifted me the Marc Jacobs Divine Decadence fragrance gift set and also a beautiful YSL lipstick in the shade 207. It's a really nice true rose shade, I don't have a colour like this in my collection surprisingly and I can't wait to wear it.
That's everything I got for my birthday! I got some really lovely presents and I can't wait to use/wear everything. Everyone was so generous and I'm so lucky and grateful for everything I was gifted.
