what i got for my birthday!

finally buckling down and workin on some posts for you guys! i'm starting with the easiest, because this post was like 90% complete and i was just being lazy.... 😅

hi guys! so birthday stufffff. these are the fun (tangible) things that i got this year. most of these were on my wishlist because i didn't really know what to ask for this year... anyway enjoy. ~Lindsay

alrighty, let's start with the first things that arrived! J got me so many things this year! i had all of these items on my birthday list, but they're so much cuter in person! the bows have swarovski crystals in them, and the other 4 are 16G labrets. the two opal ones are from the same line as the opal one i already had, i really liked this star, and the pearl one apparently was a freebie because she bought all the things! then from amazon, there was this life around 2 angels bath bomb set. [all of the bath bombs!] these are maybe between a golf ball and a baseball in size? and they smell so strong! i can't wait to use them! and this totoro figurine is super cute and kind of funny. the umbrella post, as you can see, doesn't go through the center of the umbrella, but if you look at the top of the umbrella, the piece sticking out is centered -- ya know, like a real umbrella. hahaha. but whatevs, it's cute. he's pretty small, plastic, and sounds hollow. i originally wanted to get him to leave him outside, but he seems too small and may disfigure and discolor with the weather here...so he can hang with the inside plants instead.

mom's been on this trend of buying me pandora charms lately. and i don't actually mean just pandora brand.... these are cristy cali bracelet charms, which are from the brand that she started my bracelet from. the fortune cookie is so cute!
sidenote - i'm looking at my christmas post, and apparently i failed to mention the cristy cali crescent city necklace she got me.... i wore it quite a few times in random posts since then.. (see loreal hair oil review post) also, crescent city... new orleans... city landmarks on a crescent moon... love it!

T and i keep going back and forth with different skincare lately...mostly me not actually using it... anyway, she got me tony moly and snp goodies! the tako is pretty nice, and the mango hand butter is really yummy!

A got me this kawaii wallet that i found on the amazons. i mean look. at. itttttt.

my in-laws got me quite a few things too. i want to say around black friday, sigma released several gift sets that sold out sooo fast. this one (modern eyes) was still available on nordstrom's website and it has all the brushes that i love! an E55, E40, and E25. i also wanted a collegiate wreath for the front door. i'll probably put it out sometime in april or may, if they're still doing any good, or wait til football season. apparently this season hasn't been too great. annnd lastly, the thing i haven't decided how much i like yet..... a unicorn corkcicle tumbler. i like that it keeps my drinks cold, i'm not sure how i feel about the unicorn-ness. the mug is a white base with a few layers of holo glitter (it's not completely covered in it.....) so in certain lights, it's not super pretty rainbowy. 😕

teh paul is funny. he says i can order this spring wreath...then gives me an etsy gift card on top of that.... all the sticker monehz. but this one is cute, a little smaller than i was expecting, but i still likes it!
