Birthday haul!

                                        Birthday haul!  

Hello lovelies, so it has recently been my birthday and I've been out spending some of my birthday money. For my birthday I only asked for a few things and wanted the rest just money meaning my haul will be things that I actually got for my birthday and things that I bought the following day. Hope you enjoy! :D 

First off, I got a pair of White Doc Martens rip offs. Next to them are my Real Doc Martens in grey which I adore. I had always wanted a pair of Real White Doc Martens but they were so expensive, then I came across a pair of brand new reduced grey ones which was love at first sight and I actually preferred them to white. There was only one pair in the whole shop and when I saw that they were in my size I grabbed them instantly! I didn't even realize that they had grey and never even thought about it! But they look amazing and tie almost any look together perfectly.
As for the white rip offs, they were from another one of my local shoe shops and they too look amazing in any season! 



Next are brushes from the "Real Techniques" Collection by Samantha Chapman from Pixiwoo on Youtube. I got the "Core Collection"(the orange face brushes), the "Starter Set"(the purple eye brushes) and the "Stippling Brush"(the pink brush). These brushes have been madly raved about throughout the internet beauty world and now I know why! They apply your makeup in the quickest, most flawless way and it looks like you have spent ages doing your makeup! These brushes are the secret to perfect makeup guys!




Next is something that I bought and it is really affordable. It is the Cosmopolitan beauty blender. There are many different brands of beauty blenders for instance MAC do one. But this does the job perfectly and why spend lots of money on an expensive one when they are just as good? 



Then I got the Soap & Glory Scent - Sationalism Gift Set from boots. These are lovely sprays to spray on after having a bath or shower. The middle spray is a spray on moisturizing scent and the other two are just body sprays but they smell amazing! 



I got two cable knit hats. The wine coloured one on the left is from Topman and the black coloured one on the right is from primark mans section. These keep your heat so warm! My only issue is that the wine coloured one is quite small(and my head isn't big) and the black one is quite big(and my head isn't small either), other than that they are fantastically stylish for the winter when you have your hair down and messy. 



And lastly just a little something for my room for when i'm in the mood, I purchased a sampler Yankee candle in the scent "Bermuda Beach" just to freshen up my room a little on a day-to-day basis. I sat there frustrated for ages to try and sum up what it smells like and I don't get how I missed it's obvious scent!, it smells just like watermelons and pina colada(two very recognizable scents)!  I purchased 3 other Yankee Samplers for Christmas in my Christmas haul part 1 on my last post, part 2 will be HUGE and coming soon after I re-visit town! :D

I hope you have enjoyed my Birthday haul! It's not the biggest haul but that's purely for the fact that I have been saving and spending a lot on my Christmas haul. Let me what you think of the products! :)
