16th Birthday

Finally I'm 16! Its great having my birthday in the summer but I have to wait so long for it! ANYWAY I'm currently writing this after my last exam which means no more school and no more exams for me and Abbie which is great but also means more blog posts! This blog post is what I got for my 16th birthday which was wednesday 11th June:) I didn't really do much I just revised as I had a maths exam but I had a lovely day and me and my family are going out for something to eat this weekend as a celebration for my birthday and end of exams!

So on the morning of my birthday I went down stairs where the living room was decorated with with 16 banners and baby pink ribbon on the door handles and a pile of prezzies and cards from my family! I also had 2 sixteen balloons by the presents and the cards it just added a nice touch to the whole thing!

When I went down all my presents were wrapped in cute little polka dot pink paper, it was so cute:D anyway on the the first present I opened was a money pot and I have wanted one of these for ages not to put money in but to just display and my mom and dad brought me one saying 'Princess Fund' with a cute message on the back and a big '16' and it goes with my room really well so thats great!

Then there was 2 pandora bags and I instantly fell in love they were both from my brother and it was something that I actually wanted and they were a pair of earrings and a charm for my bracelet! The earrings are just pink daises and I love them Abbie has the same ones and I loved them so I had to ask for them! Then I got a pandora charm which is very delicate with small diamonds in it because big charms look funny on my wrist as my wrist is small but it's just little flowers with diamonds in the middle, and it's perfect because I only wear 2 charms on my bracelet!

Then the next gift wasn't really a gift It was planned before my birthday about a couple months ago and it was that my mom was going to give me one of her new MK watches for my older MK watch which I was fine with and we were going to get the links taken out this weekend but as a surprise she did it while she was shopping for my birthday present! It's just a rose gold watch with a diamond face on with a watch bracelet as panther links which is really nice I think I just really like the design of it and I'm gland my mom wanted to trade with me because I loved this one!

The next present of my family was a massive surprise I never expected it and it was MK Bag and it was the Medium Jet Set Travel in black, and it's the most beautiful thing ever I have fell in love in with it and Im so grateful and shocked that my mom and dad brought me one but they also told me it was towards hard work for my exams but I plan on using it a lot and I thought it will be ideal for when we go on holiday as it's a decent size. The inside is also lovely and it's split into 2 by a large zip pouch where you can put more valuable things and I think thats a great idea and it's just the right size!

And lastly Abbie and her mom came round which was really nice and dropped my present off and I don't think you understand how excited I was because I got a mug and a keyring with '16' on as I  REALLY wanted a mug don't ask me why and it's a great mug for a cuppa. The keyring and the mug both have a cute little teddy bear on them holding a '16' so THANK YOU ABBIE! also Fraser he little brother made me a loom band which is the cutest thing ever so thank you!

Also a  week before my grandmar and par brought me a gnome and it was the best present ever I love it! It's know sitting in my garden where you can see it on the patio and everyone comments on him but when I leave home the gnome is coming with me. It's such a thoughtful but sill present but I love it so much! 

Lastly mom got me a cake as a surprise so we had a piece of cake and a cuppa with my grandmar and grandad on the afternoon and it was lovely. I really enojyed my day with everyone and I wasn't at school which was a complete shock as I'm always at school for my birthday and it was a lovely day and Im so grateful for everything!

What I got for my 16th Birthday ♡

So this week I turned 16! I don't feel any different and so far haven't felt the need to get a moped licence, join the army or get married... strange! I love seeing other peoples blog posts like this so I thought that I would do one to show you what I got for my birthday. First of all I would just like to say that I'm not trying to show off or brag about anything I got I know I have been extremely lucky! Also I need to apologize for the state of my nail varnish in some of the pictures... I'm ashamed to say the least! Enjoy!

My main present was this BEAUTIFUL Michael Kors watch! I cant even explain how nice this watch is and I just never want to take it off! Its rose gold with a white face that looks slightly pink in some lights. It had diamonds around the face and where the numbers would be and the seconds hand looks like a little arrow. I blame Alicia for my new obsession with Michael Kors and I cant wait to start a Michael Kors collection in the future. 

I have been wanting a Pandora ring for a long time so I asked my Nan and Granddad to get me one and they got me the the flower one that matches my earrings! Its from the new Pandora valentines collection like the charm that they got me too. I was in Oxford last weekend (more on that soon) and I saw the second ring which is just a very plain band so my Auntie got me that one for my birthday while we were there. 

From my Auntie and Uncle I got this coral and cream Ted Baker make up bag. Its a really nice colour and and a nice size to keep my jewelry in (I know jewelry in a make up bag weird...). I also got a set of 9 seventeen nail varnishes which are such pretty colours and I cant wait to try them all! They also got me a 16 mug which I was much more excited for than I should have been. 

My mom and dad also got me a SUPER fluffy pink Jack Wills hoodie which I really want to just live in its so soft! They also got me some really soft grey Jack Wills trackies that I would also really like to live in. With some money people gave me I decided to get 2 new leotards, 1 Capezio and 1 Roch Valley, and a pair of Roch Valley dance leggings. 

The next things that I got are body products. I got a set of boots body washes which smell really good! There's a cocoa butter one, a mango one, a coconut one and my personal favorite cranberry. I also got the Soap & Glory Soaper Heroes set which I love! It has 3 products that I wanted to buy myself so now I can try them out and see what I think. Hopefully I will do a post on that set in the future so you can see what I think of it. Another Soap & Glory product I got was the sugar crush body wash. I have also been wanting to try this for a while so I was so happy to receive it.

From boots I got a lip balm set and a nail set and from Primark a really cute owl mirror and set of 3 patterned nail files. 

Last weekend I went to London as I mentioned earlier and I went to see Billy Elliot the musical on the Saturday. It was AMAZING and I would highly recommend anyone to go and see it just remember your tissues! Then on the Sunday we went shopping in Oxford which is a lovely town (With a big Jack Wills so I was in my element) and I would like to go back again at some point. This was for my birthday and I'm also going to see my boys One Direction in May for the 3rd time which is really exciting and my ticket there was also a present. 

I am so grateful for all of the gifts I received and will hopefully blogging about some of them soon. Now I'm going to sort out my nail varnish... I may be some time

Abbie x
