So as I'm sure most of you know by now, on Thursday, I turned nineteen. *Shudders slightly* Doesn't nineteen just sound so much older than eighteen? And as my dad pointed out, I'm officially into my last year of being a teenager which is, quite frankly, some very scary stuff.
I spent the day relaxing at home... sorting out my domain name?! Yep, isn't that just #BirthdayGoals right there! Anyway, aside form having an almost psychological breakdown I received some lovely presents from my family and had a very delectable meal out.
Of course, what sort of blogger would I be if I hadn't photographed all my presents and made a post about it?! So today I bring you: The What I Got For My Birthday haul!

I'm aware that not everyone likes these sort of posts because they can come across as slightly braggy, but I'm honestly not trying to show off or be obnoxious in any way, I just love reading this sort of thing, and hoped you might too!

First up I was lucky enough to receive two beautiful pieces from Pandora. To start with, the leather bracelet which is absolutely gorgeous and so versatile. My mum has this exact one in black and she wears it most days, so I'm really excited to see how I can style it. I think there's something lovely and easily stylish about leather bands - the perfect balance of looking put together without being too blinged up.
Secondly, I also received the typically Pandora tiara ring. I actually put this on my birthday wish-list because I've seen so many people wearing it and I think it's absolutely gorgeous!
My uncle gave me this lovely Soap and Glory set complete with hand wash, hand cream and a reed diffuser. I think this will be perfect for when I'm at uni because I actually have an ensuite bathroom and since candles aren't allowed, a diffuser is a great alternative. I'm a massive fan of anything Soap and Glory, so this was right up my ally.
Also from my parents I received this incredible SatNav. I was not expecting this at all, but since I have an affinity for getting hopelessly lost, I think it was a great idea on their behalf. Like seriously, there's just something about roads and road signs that manages to confuse me so much whenever I'm driving anywhere new! So thank you parents, much appreciated!!
And lastly I wanted to show you all the plethora of things they bought me for uni. I'm going self catered which means I'll have to cook my own food, so they kindly gifted me an entire kitchen. Not really, obviously, but that's what it feels like! *Praying no one at uni tries and steals my swaggy cheese grater*
The only other things I got were clothes which I'm sure will be making an appearance in some fashion posts soon! I hope you enjoyed today's post and just to reiterate: I'm not trying to show off in any way, shape or form.
You got some lovely gifts - the princess ring is beautiful. Hope you had a wonderful birthday, I'm also going self catered in September and I'm so jealous of all those kitchen supplies!

ReplyDeleteOh god I know! I'm awful at finding anywhere, so hopefully this means the end of frantically trying to listen to the instructions on my iPhone whilst not actually being able to see the screen because it's fallen face down on my dashboard hahaha xxx
