The Autumn Tag

I feel like I've not done a tag post on my blog for the longest of time and I've been seeing the 'Autumn Tag' floating around on so many of my favourite blogs, I thought I would give it ago. Autumn has to be one of those times of years that I just love and seeing as the tress are starting to loose their leaves and chunky knitwear is starting to make an appearance, I thought that this Autumn themed tag would be just perfect.

For Autumn what is your...

1. Favourite thing about it?
For me I love that change in the air, everything feels a little more fresh and crisp and I love how the evenings start to get a little darker earlier. For me nothing beats walking the dogs in the afternoon, wrapping up warm and coming home to get all cosy afterwards. The feeling of hibernating away from the rest of the world when you get in is just blissful. 

2. Favourite Drink?
This question is a bit of a funny one for me as I'm a really fussy drinker! I don't drink any kind of hot drinks whatsoever so I'll guess I shall be sticking to my glasses of water.

3. Favourite Scent/Candle
When it comes to candles I only really like fresh or sweet scents, around this time of year you will always find me burning a Christmas Cookie Yankee Candle, I know its a Christmas scent but it just smells amazing.

4. Best Lipstick?
I love wearing deep berry shades and bright reds this time of year, last year my go too shade was Revlon's Lip Butter in Raspberry Pie, it's the most gorgeous deep berry colour. I'm also a fan of Revlon's Cherries In The Snow, it's a dark cherry fuchsia colour and just looks gorgeous on.

5. Go to Moisturiser?
My face doesn't get too dry around this time of year, so I usually stick to my Hydrating Light Moisturiser from Simple. However I do like to indulge a little when it comes to moisturising my skin over the colder months and Soap & Glory's Righteous Butter is a favourite.

6. Go to Colours for the Eyes?
I'm pretty much a naturals kind of girl all year round, however I do like to play around with some deep purple shades around this time of year just because I feel that you can get away with more of a smokey eye in the day time during autumn. 

7. Favourite Music or Band/Singer to listen to?
When it comes to music, really anything goes and it depends on what mood I'm in. I'm still really loving Ben Howard at the moment and Lana Del Rey. However I've been hitting the gym a lot lately and when it comes to working out, I love listening to Pitbull. But most of the time, wherever I go there is always music playing and I have no control over the playlist, so really I'll just listen to whatever is on.

8. Favourite Outfit to Wear (Boots and Scarf combo)?
I love rocking my wet look skinny jeggings this time of year, paired with an oversized sweater and some boots. I just find this look is great for daytime and one that can take you right into evening.

9. Autumn Treat (i.e new scarf or bad you have your eye on)?
There is so much on my wishlist right now, but if I had to treat myself this autumn it would have to be the new Toni & Guy Jumbo Tong. This is a fairly new thing added to my wishlist, but I saw Kayleigh from Couture Girl rave about this in one of her latest posts and her hair looked out of this world amazing. 

10. Favourite Place To Be?
The saying 'there's no place like home' couldn't be more true and this time of year I love coming home, having a pamper and hibernating from the rest of the world. I love wearing my pajamas, big fuzzy socks and plonking my bum onto the sofa and chilling out, nothing beats it.

So that's all my answers for the autumn tag, I wasn't tagged by anyone to do this post, but I do tag everyone that reads or follows my blog to give it ago. I would love to see your answers so be sure to let me know if you do it.

Lots of Love

This Girls Gotta Have Em || Beauty Wishlist

Hi ladies, it feels like forever since I've done a beauty wishlist here on my blog and there are so many products that are being added to it weekly, I swear its getting a little out of hand! Anyone else with me there? I thought I'd show you ladies the top six items on my list that I am just wanting to get my little beauty mitts on. 

Stilla In the Light Pallette

This eye shadow palette from Stilla seams to have been a beauty blogger favourite for some time now and I'm forever seeing it being talked up about which makes me eager to try it out and have it in my collection. This palette has such a lovely bunch of shades to choose from including what has to be one of Stilla's most loved shaddows 'Kitten'. I just think that you could create so many lovely looks with this palette which makes my lust for it even stronger. 

Lime Crime Lipstick - Geradium 

I have been wanting to get my hands on a Lime Crime lippie for ages. There looks as though there are so many gorgeous and pretty shades to choose from but 'Geradium' is the one that really stands out for me, its a beautiful bright coral pink shade, which is a typical Dannie shade when it comes to lipstick. I've looked at so many swatches of this lipstick and OhWoWeee guys it just looks incredible - I need it in my life! Not only does the lipstick look amazing, but how cute is the packaging of Lime Crime lipsticks with it's silvery holographic unicorn printed on it. 

OCC Lip Tar

Another lip product which I have been dying to try out for ages is the OCC Lip Tars, something a little different to your usual box standard lipstick. The Lip Tars look as though they pack a punch as I've been told that they are incredibly pigmented and a little goes a long way. Not only do they look and sound like fabulous lip products there are so so many shades to choose from. If I had to pick one to add to my lipstick collection though, 'True Pink Flamingo' really stands out for me. When it comes to lipsticks I am such a fan of pretty pink shades that have light nude tones to them and this shade looks like it will be just that. 

NYX Xtreme Lip Cream - Nude Peach Fizz

As a beauty blogger I am a little shocked with myself that I haven't gotten around to placing a NYX order and try out some of their most hyped about products. I've always heard a lot of great things about their Xtreme Lip Creams and for the longest of time I have been lusting after the shade Nude Peach Fizz. Like I mentioned when it comes to choosing lip colours I am a very pink girl at heart, but there comes a time when you need a go too nude shade and this one looks perfect. I've looked at so many swatches of this lip product and it looks like a beaut! I love how the nude has a more pinky/peach tone to it and I think it's a shade that will work perfectly with my skin tone.

Bumble & Bumble Surf Shampoo & Conditioner

What is it about Bumble & Bumble products that look so appeasing? For the longest of time I find myself being drawn to this hair care brand but have failed to make a purchase from them. I absolutely love the sound of their Surf shampoo and conditioner as I am a huge fan of messy hair and love the 'I've been on the beach all day' kind of look. This duo is supposed to help enhance natural waves and give your hair plenty of body and texture for that perfect surfer girl beach look. I know sea salt sprays do an amazing job of doing this, but sometimes I feel as though my hair just needs that little bit more and these products sound perfect for the job.

Enrapture Encode Totem Styler 

I don't use heat on my hair very often, but when I do I am a big fan of putting it in curls. I have been eyeing up this totem styler from Enrapture for the longest time as it just looks fabulous for creating all sorts of diffident curls in your hair. I love loose boho curls and this looks it will create beautiful ones!

So that's my top six picks ladies, I would love to know whats made it on to your wishlist and if you've tried and tested any of the products shown in this post.

Lots of Love
