I was super excited when I got them as I was going to get them for myself for Christmas. One of the things has been on my wish list since FOREVER and the other one was recently released and it was something that I wanted but didn't need.

This is the mini glamour makeup box that is absolutely adorable. It's the perfect size for someone who doesn't have a lot of makeup or for someone like me who likes to store their makeup in categories (like brands, product type, colour etc). I'll be using this to store mostly lipsticks and foundation :)

How cute are the door handles? They're like big diamonds. I think for my next birthday, I'll have hint to my friends that I also need the original sized makeup box so that I can get rid of the monstrosity that I currently store my makeup in. I bought some drawers from Officeworks and stacked it on top of each other to create this. It's certainly not as pretty as the acrylic makeup boxes.
The second thing that I got was from 2 friends of mine who had to hunt it down. They called every Apple store in Sydney every day to get hold of it and ended up having to buy it from the Apple online store as none of the Apple retail stores had it in stock.
It's an iPad mini! I wanted it as it's such a convenient size and I use my iPhone a lot for reading the news and visiting people's blogs. I was going to get it for myself for Christmas but now I won't need to :) It's definitely something that's more of a want than a need and I would've felt bad buying it... I need to save money! :P
