Autumn Wish List

Afternoon Love Bugs!

So I’ve noticed a couple of bloggers do wish lists so I thought it would be a fun idea for a post! Below is a list of lots of different things I would like to purchase on payday including makeup, clothes, candles and more!

#1 – Chanel’s Autumn Collection
I want every single thing in Chanel’s Autumn collection! The colours are absolutely beautiful! The only thing I am not 100% sure on is the blush…it’s a bit too reddish for me. I usually wear more pastel colours on my cheeks, but would love to give it a try!

#2 – Boots
 
 Oh my goodness! These little booties from New Look are the cutest boots I’ve ever seen! I must have them! I need a new pair of boots as my uggs are a bit too cozy for this time of year. I prefer to wear my uggs more in the winter.
 
#3 – Marshmallow Fireside by Bath & Body Works

Absolutely adore this scent. I got it last year and used it pretty quickly because I was burning it non-stop! As I don’t live in America, hopefully I’ll be able to purchase this candle of either eBay or thebathandbodyshop.com.

#4 – MAC’s lightful cleanser

This product looks and sounds amazing! Will take a break from my usual Clinique skin care regime just to try this product out!

What’s your wish list dolls? Let me know in the comments below : )

The Autumn Tag


Tag creator - www.makeup-pixi3.com
 
I spotted this tag on www.makeup-pixi3.com and thought it was an excellent idea for a post! I am going to tag some fellow bloggers at the end of this post but feel free to do the tag!
 
1.    Favourite thing about autumn?
Oh that’s hard! I don’t think I only have one main favourite to be honest. I love everything about autumn. The colours (leaves, fashion), smells (burning leaves), tastes (pumpkin spiced lattes)…everything!!
 
2.    Favourite drink?
It has to be either the pumpkin spiced lattes that Starbucks do at this time of year or Nescafe’s instant gingerbread latte! Wouldn’t say no to a hot chocolate though ;)
 
3.    Favourite scent/candle?
Well I’ve already mentioned that I love the smell of burning leaves. So candle wise, I love Yankee candle ‘blissful autumn’ and ‘fireside treats’.
 
4.    Best lipstick?
I usually stick to the same colours all year round which is bad! So I am gonna try hard to work a dark lip this fall/winter. I particularly like the vampy look.
 
5.    Go to moisturiser?
Definitely Clinique’s dramatically different moisture lotion for combination/oily skin J
 
6.    Go to colours for the eyes?
I always tend to do a smokey eye, usually like to use brighter colours in the spring/summertime but I love a dark smokey eye for the fall.
 
7.    Favourite music or band/singer to listen to?
I love to listen to Paramore and Florence & the Machine at this time of year. I think Hayley’s and Florence’s voice are really suited to the colder months if that makes sense!
 
8.    Favourite outfit to wear?
Layers! Lots and lots of layers!! Boots/uggs, leg warmers, tights, shorts, vest, long cardigan and a scarf!
 
9.    Autumn treat?
Lots and lots of cuddles to keep warm!
 
10. Favourite place to be?
Definitely at home, with candles lit, watching a film, drinking hot chocolate whilst cuddling into my boyfriend and kitten.
 
Hope you have enjoyed reading my answers! 
The people I have tagged are as follows:
 


 
PS. Apologies if you have already done this tag!

Bath Body Works Pumpkin Cupcake Deep Cleansing Hand Soap Review

Oh my days, where do I start?!

Okay so, I absolutely adore Bath & Body works products to the extent that I pay double for their candles on eBay, but I’m gonna let you in on a little secret…there is a place in the UK that sells B&BW products!! It’s called the bathandbodyshop.co.uk. It sells tonnes of different B&BW products including candles, hand soaps and even pillow spray! I check the site every day for the latest products.
So yeah, back to my addiction. As I am obsessed with nice festive smells, I always try and stay as up-to-date as possible with the hand soaps I have in my bathroom. Be it a fresh summery smell like aloha orchid or a Christmassy scent like iced gingerbread, I feel that it’s nice for guests (and myself) to use instead of your basic everyday hand soap. However, as I purchase these hand soaps online, I like to make sure that I actually enjoy the scent. So I usually purchase a hand sanitiser first, see if I like it, then I will buy the hand soap. I bought the pumpkin cupcake hand sanitiser about 2 weeks ago and absolutely fell in love! It smells like pumpkins, gingerbread and sugary vanilla and it simply is the most festive smell ever, its perfect for this time of year! I also feel that it is a unique scent that sums up autumn turning into winter, if you know what I mean.
I highly recommend this product, not just because of the smell, but also because it’s the best cleansing soap I have ever used. It leaves your hands feeling so clean, but also moisturised! The ideal combination!
Do you guys like B&BW hand soaps? If so, what one is your favourite??

My Fall Must Haves

Happy Monday everybody!

I noticed this morning on my way to work that its getting slightly chiller which made me realise that Autumn is just around the corner. Autumn is my favourite season due to the crisp air, beautiful colours and gorgeous smells.

Here are a few of my Autumn must haves...

Pumpkin Cupcake 14.5 oz. 3-Wick Candle - Slatkin & Co. - Bath & Body Works
Pumpkin cupcake candle which can be found here
I love Bath & Bodyworks candles, I'm from the UK, so I found it really difficult to obtain them. I usually either purchase mine from eBay or The Bath and Body Shop.

Cream (Cream) Cream Popcorn Knitted Snood | 288365713 | New Look

I find New Look scarves so cozy, and they're great value for money!

Luxury White Hot Chocolate
There nothing better than a mug of hot chocolate and the temperatures start to fall. Fill your favourite mug with Whittard's Luxury White Hot Chocolate and pop in some mini marshmallows.



And when it starts to get really cold, jump into a warm bath and dunk in one of these babies and watch the colours change. The twilight bath bomb has to be my favourite product from Lush.

What are your favourites for Fall? Let me know below as I love to try new products!!
