I HEART FALL/ AUTUMN TAG

I love this tag and I've seen it floating about on youtube lately so I thought I'd bring it to the old blog. Autumn is my favourite time of year so this tag is just perfect! Let's get into it!

1. Favorite Fall lip product?
I'm honestly not very brave with lip products and while I do love a good red, my favourite lipstick in the Autumn time is nude. I find some pinks a little too summery but a nude in the autumn is fool proof. My favourites are the two in the photo below, Topshop Nevada lipstick and Collection 2000 Powder Puff Matte Lip Cream. They're just gorgeous nudes, Nevada is more your typical nude lipstick while Powder Puff is a more natural 'my lips but...nuder?' matte colour.




2. Favorite Fall Nail Polish?
As I'm training and practicing as a beautician, it's actually not practical for me to wear nail polish right now which is a little bit sad really! But when I do paint my nails in the Autumn time, I love Sally Hansen Iced coffee, again, while I love reds, I do still wear colour in the Autumn and red doesn't go with everything. This polish is more of a warm nude and it just looks fab with everything which is great! 





3. Favorite Starbucks Fall Drink?

I honestly don't really like the hot drinks in Starbucks that much, I know, right? Wanna kill me? Me too. I love the cold cream frappuccinos but my favourite drinks in the autumn time are from another coffee shop called esquires. They do THE best hot chocolates in all different flavours like hazelnut, honeycomb, gingerbread, white chocolate, mint etc. Me and Darren went in there most days while we were at college and I'm sure we'll go in there whenever we're in town this season too.




4. Favorite Fall Candle?


This is a bit of a random one but it's this Banana Nut Bread one I found in TK Maxx last year. I'm about half way done with it now which is quite sad as I'm not sure if you can still get this candle, I'll have to look into that. It's honestly the loveliest scent ever, if you don't like the smell of banana you'll definitely hate it but to me it smells like a warm banana nut muffin, which I think is just lovely.

5. Favorite Fall Scarf or accessory

My favourite accessory is definitely this read bobble beanie that Darren bought me. I've only had it a few days but I don't ever ever want to take it off my head, it's so cute and keeps my head SO warm. I also love the knitted headband I got in cambridge a couple of days ago, it's a bit different but I love it!




6. Haunted house, haunted hay ride, or haunted corn maze?


As all the British bloggers have said, I have no idea what a haunted hay ride or corn maze are so I don't think I can answer this. Although I've been in a haunted house type thing at Alton Towers here in England and I cried, like legit cried. I hate those things where you walk through and people jump out and grab you, you know? Can't deal with it, too real!!!

7. Favorite Halloween movie?

I don't really know about a specific Halloween movie but one of the scariest films I've seen recently is Sinister. That was seriously jumpy! I won't ruin it for anyone that hasn't seen but it's honestly so creepy, music can make or break a film and this film seriously had the creepiest music I've ever heard. Also, scary children are the worst, fact.





8. Favorite candy to eat on Halloween?

I've never actually been the trick or treating kind, but my favourite kind of sweets are things like gummy bears or gummy worms. I LOVE those natural confectionary co sweets, like the snakes and stuff. I'm such a child in that way!




9. What are you dressing up as for Halloween?!


Strangely enough, Halloween is actually mine and Darren's 'Anniversary' (feels strange calling it that as we're not married!!) so I'm actually going out for dinner and to the cinema on Halloween rather than doing any partying and things, it'll be lovely though and it's great to tell people that our anniversary is halloween!



10. What is your Favorite thing about Fall?
I love so many things, the leaves, the weather, the way everything looks outside, the fashion, but most of all it has to be the build up to Christmas. Anyone who says they don't love Christmas is lying, fact. When all the lights come on in town and there's a santa's grotto and lush bring out their christmas stuff it all just feels so magical! I love shopping for presents with my family and friends and boyfriend then sitting down for a hot chocolate (from esquires!).


So that's my fall/ autumn tag!
