Autumn Tag

I found these tag questions from THIS blog and thought I would answer them because Autumn is my favourite time of the year. 

Favourite thing about Autumn? 
I love so much to do with Autumn, but my favourite thing is probably the weather. I really don't like hot weather and I feel Autumn is great because it gets chilly enough to wear jumpers.


Favourite drink?
Cinnamon hot chocolate is so so good.

Favourite candle/scent?
My favourite autumn scent is when you go outside after its rained and the air is fresh. I'm not a big candle person because I'm not allowed to burn them at home but I also quite like cinnamon and other spice scents.
 
Best lipstick?
I love to wear dark lipsticks in the Autumn and my favourites are MUA shade 1, Rimmel 380 Dark Night Waterl-oops! and Topshop Hazard. When I'm not wearing dark shades, I tend to reach for Natural Collection Raspberry, Collection Cream Puff in Cotton Candy 1 and MUA Shade 11.

Go to colours for the eyes?
I love to do a quite a natural nude and brown eye with winged eye liner, but sometimes if I'm going out I might do a smokey eye with shimmery and matte browns.

Favourite outfit to wear?
I like to wear anything that is comfortable. I'm all about the oversized jumpers and ankle boots, but if I'm feeling more fancy I will go for a dress and wool tights. I also love to wear really big checked flannel shirts with leggings and doc martens.
 
Autumn treat?
I love spiced baked apple crisps or curiously cinnamon cereal just in a bowl without milk makes a great snack (not a very healthy one though!)

Favourite place to be?
Honestly my favourite place to be is in my house,
 
What do you do to get into the Autumn spirit?
Not a huge amount, I normally just feel autumnal when it gets a bit colder.
 
What is your favourite Autumn activity?

Probably seeing my friends, going for dinners or going to the cinema or staying at home and watching a film. I also love going on country walks with my family and pub lunches afterwards.

 
Scarves, hats or gloves?

All of them! If I have to chose one then it would be hats, I love a good bobble hat.

How do you decorate for Autumn?
I never really decorate for autumn, but this year I bought a GURLI throw blanket from Ikea and I'm planning on making some cushions so that will be my decoration.

What is your favourite Halloween/Autumn movie? 
Honestly I don't like many halloween films and right now I can't think of the ones I do like. As for the autumn movies, I'm sure there are loads I've seen that I love but I can't think of any on the spot.


What is one song that puts you in the Autumn mood?




I dont really have a specific song but I'm loving Bring Me the Horizon's new album, That's The Spirit, that came out last week and its autumn so does that count?

Do you prefer to be indoors or outdoors?

I like to be indoors when its raining and outdoors when it's not so I guess my answer is both! 




I hope you enjoyed reading this and if anyone wants to comment and answer the questions or do it on your blog and link it because I would really love to read them! x

VMAs 2015 Fashion

The VMAs were the other day and they were great, my personal highlight was Taylor Swift and her squad on the red carpet. The performances were amazing and I'm in full support of Kanye running for president in 2020. 

I know I have only just done an awards show fashion post but it just so happened the VMAs were now and I actually really enjoy these posts because I love looking at the red carpet looks anyway, so why not post about it. 

These are some of my favourite looks from the event, with my absolute favourite being Vanessa Hudgens looking beyond flawless as usual.
