12th Birthday List - Polly

Hey guys, as my birthday is quickly approaching I thought it'd be fun to tell you guys about some of the items is love to receive. Keep in mind this is a Wishlist and I definitely wouldn't expect to receive all of these items.

• Running Leggings
These would be perfect for netball training and when I go for runs with my mum.

• Not if I see you first
This book looks great and I've heard heaps of amazing things about it.

• Kikki K Sticker Book
I'm often stealing my sister's Kikki K stickers as they are perfect for any craft projects.

• Pocketbacs / Bath and Body Works
I love BBW and although it can be difficult to find in Australia you can order it online.

• Swell Drink Bottle
These drink bottles are super fantastic, and although they are very pricy it's so cool how they can keep your drink cold.

• Sleeping Jumper
You may have seen this in Tayla's June Favourites post, and ever since I felt hers I've been in love.

• The Pretty Little Liars Books
I've recently started watching the show, and I'm always lacking good books.

• Washi Club Kit
If you're a washi tape addict like me you should definitely check out Washi Lane's club kit. I'd love to receive that on my doorstep.

• EOS Hand Creams
I've smelt Tayla's and heard amazing things online, So I'd definitely be super happy if I received these.

• Money
What's not to love about money? I'm saving for a lot of things including a trip to Japan later this year, so this easy gift is perfect for me.

• Printed Socks
I. Love. Socks. I'd especially like to receive some 'Dobby Socks' as not only am I a Harry Potter addict I think that the whole prospect of their brand is really awesome as well.

• Queen Bees and Wannabes
Not many people know but Mean Girls was based on a book called Queen Bees and Wannabes. I'm confident it'd be a great read.

• Anything DAISO
Isn't DAISO just amazing? I want everything in the entire store!

• Face Masks
These are super fun to play around with and if adore the LUSH cup o coffee fresh face mask or any of The Face Shop's animal masks.

• Cactus Necklace
I've seen these on etsy and I think the whole idea of dipping them in the water is too cute! I'd also love to pot the cactus at the end.

• Metallic Raincoat
This silver metallic raincoat is super fun and would go with a lot of my outfits! You can buy it at Pavement.

• LUSH Christmas in July Bath Bombs and Bubble Bars
I love LUSH an If love to stock up on the Limited Editions before they disappear again.

• IPhone SE
My current phone is not very good and it'd be great to get an upgrade before High School next year. I definitely don't expect this though.

• Bath Caddy
Perfect for my long soaks not only is this bath caddy super useful it's super photo worthy too!

• Lip Balms
Revos, Lip Smackers, Softlips, Niveas, you name it I want it! I love lip balm and they're the perfect little gift.

That's all I can think of for today. Look out for future posts and possibly even a birthday haul.
See you next Sunday, xx T&P

June Favourites - Tayla

Hi I'm Tayla,
For this weeks blog post I will tell you all the things I've been loving in the month June. I know today is the 17th of July so June was a little while back but I still wanted to show you my favourites.
June is the first month of Winter, and Australia especially Melbourne has been freezing. In my favourites I have 2 beauty items, 1 book, 2 jackets/jumpers, 1 bag and 2 accessories.

FAVORITES:  

- Victoria Secret, Pure Seduction flirt Fragrance Mist





I think the victorias secret fragrance mists have really pretty packaging and smell amazing. I already have the Pure Seduction fragrance mist and it smells really good and then they bought out the same scent with a more stronger floral scent. I like wearing perfumes but sometimes I just want a light scent so this fragrance mist is my go-to mist. I think these mists are a bit on the pricey side but it definitely pays off with compliments of how you smell amazing.


-Pandora, Birthstone ring


   


I love this pandora ring so much because of many reasons. This ring is the Pandora Pink Opal & Silver October Birthstone ring, I wasn't actually born in October I'm a December baby but the colour of this ring is stunning. I wear this ring about everyday and find it really comfortable to wear, although I don't sleep with it on. The colour of this gemstone is like a really light pink (baby pink)  and it matches with a lot of accessories and clothes.


- Kmart sleep/lounge jumper

     

This sleep jumper is the best thing at night to snuggle into. Every night after I come home from school I chuck this jumper on and I'm instantly warm and could fall asleep. Lately I've been obsessed with the colour grey so this is the best. I love that the jumper has a high neck so it keeps you warmer. The price of these jumpers are unbelievable so stock up. (I couldn't find the link for this, sorry)


- SUKIN Detoxifying Facial Scrub


     

This scrub is great for most skin types and really saves me. My skin isn't the best but whenever I have a shower before I wash my hair I pour a little bit of this scrub on my hands and then smooth it into my skin. After 1-2 minutes of rubbing the scrub into my face I then gently splash my face with water to get the scrub off. After hopping out the shower my skin is a little red but then the redness disappears and you are left with your face as smooth as a baby's bottom. This product doesn't contain any harmful chemicals so it is good for young skin. I bought my detoxifying facial scrub from priceline for the price of $13 AUD which I think is a reasonable price.


- Sportsgirl Tan Bucket Bag




This sportsgirl bag is the best handbag I've ever owned. Because this is a bucket bag you can fill it with as much or as little as you would like. Can we please just talk about this tan/natural colour, it goes with pretty much every outfit and looks amazing with the gold details. This bag is originally $60 AUD but it was on sale to $40 with 50% off sale items so I got it for only $20, can you believe it? I do think this bag is pricey but for the leather and the look I'm happy to pay the price but I got it for only a third of the real price so I'm pleased. As this was a sale item it is no longer in stores so it is unavailable to sportsgirl.


- Grey Knit Ripcurl Scarf


    


This scarf is just part of my everyday outfit that is how much I love it. As I said earlier I have been obsessing over the colour grey so obviously this scarf falls under that category as well. At the moment scarfs have been my life because when your neck is warm it just makes your whole body warm. The brand of this scarf is ripcurl although I purchased it in ozmosis for $25AUD. I definitely recommend to buy a scarf to get you through the winter.


- The Honest Truth Book By Dan Gemeinhart

   
     


the honest truth book is a really sweet and sad story that warms you up inside. This book was written by dan gemeinhart and he did a tremendous job. I love this book so much and definitely recommend you to buy it at a bookshop. I don't want to give away any spoilers but just have a box of tissues with you at all times.


- Kathmandu Insulation Jacket


     


This jacket has winter written all over it. I can't even begin to say how good this Kathmandu jacket is, I am literally lost for words. You could wear over 10 layers and this simple plain black jacket will keep you warmer. I will never stop loving this jacket and it goes with heaps of things, you could wear jeans and a t shirt with this jacket over the top and it looks great. This jacket is extremely expensive and I am very grateful to own a jacket this price, luckily there was a little sale on it when I purchased it last year.



I just want to say thank you to everyone who read me mumbling on and on about my June favourites. These items are what kept me alive through June so I hope you get some inspiration.

See you next Sunday
