What I'm Wishing For- My 18th Birthday | Wish List

As my 18th Birthday is just around the corner, I am slightly nervous but so excited, today I thought i'd bring to you my 18th Birthday Wish List. I've been asked a lot by my family and friends recently what I would like and I couldn't think of much apart from the usual 18th gifts and things that aren't physical gifts, after a long while of thinking I've put together a list to share with you guys today. 

Now you can't have it all but you can wish for it right?

1. To spend time with family and friends, with an emphasis on family.

My families relationship isn't the greatest, I must admit. So this year i'd like them and myself to make the effort to spend time with my immediate family AND the extended family that I don't see on a regular basis, whether this be going out for food or at a last minute family gathering. 

Due to leaving school a couple of years ago(I know I can't believe it myself either), I rarely see my friends but we've made sure that we'll spend each others 18th Birthdays together. For mine we're going to be staying over night in London which calls for sight seeing(though we've seen it before), shopping, eating and laughs. I cannot wait!

2. Something sentimental, although not too obviously 'I'm 18'

By this I mean i'd like a piece of jewellery to keep that doesn't feature the typical 18 charm. After lots of browsing I came up with to beautiful items that i'd love! I'm not expecting either of these though I have hinted. First is the gorgeous dainty necklace which features disks that you can choose any letters or symbols of your choice to go on there. I'd love my initials as I've never had a piece of jewellery with my name on and it comes in silver, gold and rose gold, i'm edging more towards rose gold though. 

The second piece is slightly pricey as my family don't tend to do birthdays big but I can dream right!? How gorgeous is this dainty rose gold Swarovski bracelet? Perfect for everyday where and has a hint of sparkle which I love. 

3. Although I would also like something typically '18th Birthday'.

I'm pretty sure its necessary for everyone who hits the 18th milestone to receive the typical key to the door, Me to You teddy or the champers glass featuring a glittery 18. 

4. Beauty Books.

There's a good few beauty books i'd like after reading Lauren Conrad Beauty(review: here) but they're something I don't want to buy for myself, I'm not sure why. I've heard lots about the Sali Hughes Pretty Honest book and it sounds right up my street, I'd also love the Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual. 

5. Perfume, I'm all for it.

Perfume is not something I've really dabbled with but after discovering what I think is the most beautiful scent, Giorgio Armani Si and running very low on it, I'd love another. There's also a few others I'd like to try including the Molecule 01 perfume by  Escentric Molecules and a more affordable option that I love from The Body Shop- Madagascan Vanilla Flower Eau De Toilette. 

6. Flowers.

Only once I've been bought flowers by my sister to say Thank You and I find that pretty sad as I love flowers haha! I'd be happy with any bunch but I love yellow Roses and pink Peonies. 

And that's it for my 18th Birthday Wishlist, like I said you can't have everything so just a couple of these things mentioned and i'd be over the moon!
