It's my birthday in a few days, so just for fun, I've put together a little wish list of things I'd love to receive or would spend my birthday money on, if I'm lucky enough to be given any.
Unsurprisingly, it's mostly made up of dresses, pretty books, quirky brooches, and stationery. Shocker.
1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 // 11 // 12 // 13 // 14 // 15 // 16 // 17 // 18 // 19 // 20 // 21 // 22 // 23 // 24 // 25 // 26 // 27 // 28
1. I was obsessed with Polly Pockets in the nineties, so naturally, I'm gonna need this Polly Pocket mini backpack from Loungefly when it releases this summer.
2. And obviously, that means I'm also gonna need this adorable Polly Pocket zip around wallet to go with it.
3. This toucan print trapeze dress from Popsy Clothing looks like the perfect dress to throw on over leggings on a hot day, to stay comfortable but still look stylish.
4. I've wanted to try the Bride of the Shadow King series for ages, and the Illumicrate Bride of the Shadow King special edition trilogy is to die for.
5. I'd love to add Erstwilder's otterly adorable Owen the Otter brooch to my brooch zoo.
6. Can we talk about how cute this Doodllery Cloud brooch from Little Moose is?!
7. If there was an award for prettiest bookmark, I think The Quirky Cup Collective's Iridescence Bookmark would definitely win it. I want one!
8. I recently bought my first notebooks from The Quirky Cup Collective, and now I'm obsessed. They're beautiful, and the quality is amazing. I'd love to add this stunning Otherworldly Journal to my tiny collection.
9. This romantasy colouring book looks awesome.
10. This Quirky Cup Magic Tarot Journal is also dreamy.
11. I'm dying to get my hands on this pretty pastel Loungefly My Little Pony sky scenes convertible tote backpack. If I'm lucky enough to get any birthday money, I'll probably cave.
12. I need this Meeko iPhone case from Skinny Dip! He's the best Disney sidekick ever!
13. I ran out of my YSL Touche Eclat blur primer a couple of years ago, and it's amazing, so I'd be thrilled if the beauty fairies blessed me with a new one on my birthday.
14. I love this Pool Party brooch from Erstwilder's recent Atomic Abode collection. I could wear it and pretend I'm sunning myself by the pool in some tropical paradise while I'm stuck in sunny Oxfordshire this summer.
15. This Loungefly My Little Pony colour block mini backpack is the thing my nineties kid dreams were made of.
16. The colour palette is different to what I usually go for, but I kinda love this cottage-core patchwork print dress from Joanie Clothing.
17. I'm so tempted by Owlcrate's beautiful special edition of Sword Catcher.
18. My face needs all the help it can get these days, so I'd love a new YSL Touche Eclat illuminating pen to make me look a little more alive.
19. How pretty is this Paris scenes print dress from Popsy Clothing?
20. I really want to get a book light to save my eyes as I keep getting eyestrain, and this IF Book Lover's Reading Light has made my short list. I love the botanical pattern, too.
21. The Loungefly My Little Pony castle mini backpack has been on my wishlist for over a year, but can you blame me when it's this cute?!
22. Another booklight I've been considering is the IF Really Tiny Book Light. They come in a bunch of colours, but I'd probably choose petal pink or mint.
23. I love colouring-in with watercolours, but I'm still learning how to mix the perfect skin colours, so it would be handy to have some ready-to-use shades I can use when I'm feeling lazy, like this ZenArt portrait watercolour set.
24. Monet's got nothing on Little Moose's beautiful Waterlily brooch. How cute is the little frog?!
25. I really want to try this Ecoline skintones watercolour brush pen set.
26. I've also wanted to read Immortal Longings by Chloe Gong for ages. Apparently, it's an Antony and Cleopatra retelling with Hunger Games vibes.
27. I keep hearing good things about Divine Rivals and Ruthless Vows and have been meaning to read them for over a year, so I'd love to get the duology.
28. And finally, I'd love to add this gorgeous Bushbaby Duo brooch from Little Moose to my collection.
