Birthday Haul!

So as a few may know it was my birthday on the 19th March. I didn't want to make a fuss this year so we just went out for dinner and a few drinks in the pub. I was supposed to be going to Manchester at the weekend for some super shopping but the snow put me off and ended up chilling in my jimjams in bed ordering online. When I had to start paying board I found it really hard to part with money so when I moved out it was even more hard. I found some really amazing bargains online, I couldn't resist!

I've wanted to try Real Techniques brushes for a very long time and it's were I parted with my money first. I didn't know were to start, all I knew is I need new brushes and these are the ones I want. What is great with these sets is that on the back is information about the brushes. I wouldn't know were to start so it's a great way to introduce you to the products. The case is ideal for people who lose things *cough* yes that's me. 

After shopping around for ages online I finally found these. The picture didn't do them any justice so I was nervous when I brought them. You can't go wrong for £10 though. Yes, £10 with free p&p! I don't see the point buying from the bigger high street shops that sell the same products that you can find on Ebay and Amazon for quarter of the price. They get enough money, why not help out the smaller business that are offering us the products for cheaper? I received them in the matter of days and I love them. They're really comfortable and very supportive. I can't wait to style these up and hopefully do some outfit posts. 

I don't think this snow is going to go soon and these are going to be great for when I'm out in the cold watching my partner play football. Just under £10 including p&p, I really think these boots are going to go along way. You're not going to be able to pick a pair of these up from your high street, so another amazing bargain!

I first say this lovely dress on Roybn Maydays blog (if you've never had a read of her blog, I really suggest you do. One of my favorite blogs I love to read). I absolutely love the print, it's really unique! There's so many different ways of styling this dress. 


I'm really pleased with my finds. Always shopping around, never go for first best. I still half of my birthday money left, yes still. I will do a second haul when I decide to spend my money.
