The Fall Favourites Tag!


Hey again everyone! 
Back this week with a little bit of a different post to my usual content!

My Favorite YouTube Beauty Guru ever is the amazing Jaclyn Hill If you haven't heard of her you should definitely check her out she's a really talented make-up artist and very inspiring to watch!
She has just created a Tag on YouTube called the Fall Favorites Tag and invited all her followers to do it, obviously i'm not on YouTube so i'm going to do it here!

I am so excited for Autumn, Movies, Fashion, Hot chocolates, The Makeup, stoves lighting! I Love everything about it, so this Tag is all about my favorite things about fall. 



1).Favourite Candle



I am addicteddddd to candles! I always have to have one burning! I love really clean fresh scents, Yankee Candle Clean Cotton is my all time fave but at winter I love to get Sparkling Snow, It's still really fresh but is just a little bit warmer so it still smells christmas like! I don't buy Yankee Candles on the regular because they are pricey, but i like to buy one at christmas for myself, you can burn them for longer and they just give the home a nice cosy feel! and if you don't want to pay for an actual jar you can always opt for the pack of t-lights which are a bit cheaper and still give the same effect!

     2).Favourite Lip Colour



For Autumn and Winter I LOVE the trend of wearing berry Lips! I have a tonne from L'Oreal, NYX And Rimmel but one of my favourites has to be MAC Rebel. It's The perfect berry shade and suits the majority of skin tones! Team this with a light smokey eye using browns and nudes, or just a strong wing and it looks beautiful! I also love Rimmel Provocolips in "Kiss Fatal"




3). Favourite Drink

Hands down HAS to be hot chocolate! Especially Salted Caramel hot chocolate! It is sinful but it's amazing! Starbucks does an incredible Salted Caramel Hot Choclate that is addictive!
There's nothing like curling up on the couch to watch Hocus Pocus or The Santa Claus with a nice hot chocolate and the fire blaring!

I also like the twinings Salted Caramel Green tea, buuuuut obviously my heart belongs to the hot chocolate! But this is great if you want to stay on a healthier route but still want a bit of sweetness thrown into the mix! I've also seen pictures of a Gingerbread flavour floating around but haven't seen it yet in any stores!





      4). Favourite Blush


I don't stray too often with my blushes, I generally wear Benefits Coralista almost every day, but when I do want to switch it up I love The Balm Cabana boy!
It's a Gorgeous Dusty-Rose shade with some plum undertones, so it's not too intense! it has slight shimmer in it which leaves a beautiful glow on the cheeks!

5).Favourite Clothing Item

Hands down it's boots that wins this round! I Love wearing all types of boots during all of autumn and winter! They keep you warm but still look Stylish! I mostly wear ankle boots because they are so easy to wear with different outfits!




I love wearing ankle boots with a bit off a heel to them, they just add a little bit more glam to the outfit and make it look a little bit more dressy!
I mainly love getting them in Tan and Black because you can pretty much pair those colours with anything.

I Love teaming them with jeans, Leather leggings even dresses with and without tights! They're really comfortable and so easy to wear and plan an outfit around! very versatile.



6). Favourite Fall Movie

This one is kind of hard to pick for me because I love watching films! But My favourite time of the year is Halloween and one film I watch every year during this time is Hocus Pocus!
Not much needs to be said on this one,.we all know, Its a classic.
Even though I'm 23 years old, this never fails to get me into the Halloween spirit!



7).Favourite Fall T.V. Show



AHS No questions asked! I am OBSESSED with American Horror Story! and anybody else that watches it knows the obsession is too real! My favorite season's so far are Murder House and Asylum. I've watched each season 3 times each!  It's such a different show that always keeps you on edge! It really goes into depth with the characters and their backstories. It is creepy so if you do get scared easily this might not be for you. But there's also some romance and real life situations thrown into the mix so you can really connect with some story lines (which are so different to anything you'll ever watch). I can't wait for the new season "Hotel" coming in October! If you haven't watched this yet you should really give it a go! Watch 1 episode of murder house on Netflix and I promise you will be captivated by it! And any girls out there about to watch the franchise for the first time, prepare to fall in love with Evan Peters..just a fair warning!


8) Favourite Comfort Food

This title is actually "Favourite Thanksgiving food" but obviously we don't do that over here in Ireland, so I'm just going to switch it up a bit!
Autumn and Christmas we all know is comfort eating season! One of my favourite things to eat during this time of year has to be Warm Apple crumble. It's perfect for Autumn and winter, I'd eat the entire dish of it if I could! I love it with some cinnamon on top, some caramel syrup and a dollap of cream.yaaas.


9) Favourite Halloween Costume

I love dressing up for halloween!
I didn't attend a fancy dress last year but the two years before that I went as a Zombie school girl and a Vampire. I love putting any type of horror twist on a costume, and it's actually so easy to do, you can do it to pretty much any costume!




I think any costume I'll ever wear at Halloween is going to have some sort of scary spin on it! I can't see myself just going as a nurse or sexy cop, I just love experimenting with the makeup, and at the end of the day, It's Halloween, It's Supposed to be scary! Have fun with it :)
I have a really different Idea I've seen floating around for this year that I hope to do! watch this space ;)

Thanks So much for reading everyone!
Hope you are all having a great Autumn so far!
Until the next time!
