The Autumn Tag

Hey guys! Today I am doing the Autumn tag (wow my third Autumn themed post this month), which was created by the lovely Georgina from Makeup Pixi3. Technically I wasn't specifically tagged to do this, but when I heard that Georgina had tagged everybody, I had to do it! Autumn is one of my favourite seasons, so it only seemed fair that I did this tag.

1.  Favourite thing about it?  Apart from the shopping, probably seeing all the pretty golden leaves covering the floor and the noise they make when you walk on them. Gets me all excited for Winter and Christmas haha!

2.  Favourite drink?  Honestly I don't have a favourite drink for Autumn, I am a huge fan of sparkling water all year round! Although, if I did have to pick one, it would most likely be coffee or hot chocolate, with cream, cinnamon and marshmallows of course.

3.  Favourite scent/candle?  I love anything that is spicy, especially cinnamon or nutmeg. They just remind me of Autumn and Christmas! Breaking that trend, I bought a grapefruit & lime room spray from Sainsburys (not a great Autumn scent I must admid) but I absolutely love it. 

4.  Best lipstick?  I'm not the sort of person who only uses a lipstick at certain times of the year, as I tend to play it safe and stick to my peach shades. The past few weeks I have been slowly moving over to darker shades, like my Chanel lipstick in Esprit, it's a gorgeous deep raspberry shade and it is perfect for Autumn! 

5.  Go to moisturiser?  I love the Nuxe Creme Fraiche De Beaute for the evening (it doesn't settle very well under makeup during the day), it is so moisturising for the dry skin months. For the daytime it has got to be the Balance Me Moisture Rich face cream, it really is a lovely moisturiser and makes my skin feel so soft and hydrated! 

6.  Go to colours for the eyes?  Bronzes, browns and neutrals have got to be my go to shades for Autumn. They look simple but really pretty! 

7.  Favourite music or band/singer to listen to?  Ah this is a hard question, I'm a big fan of Gabrielle Aplin, Jasmine Thompson and Birdy. I don't have a specific favourite band/singer as such but these are some of my most listened to!

8.  Favourite outfit to wear (i.e. boots & a scarf combo)?  I seem to wear either jeans, a jacket, boots/Converse and a scarf, or jeans, a jumper, boots/Converse and sometimes a scarf (see a recurring occurrence here?) This year I may try to change over to wearing dresses and thick tights/leggings a little bit more, guess we will have to see!

9.  Autumn treat?  I would love to buy some more boots and I've just ordered some new Converse a couple of days ago! Another thing I'd really like to buy is a nice bag, maybe a leather satchel or a Zara City Bag?

10.  Favourite place to be?  I can't wait to be laying in bed, cuddled up in a blanket, watching Vampire Diaries (I have a small obsession and it starts on the 3rd of October ahh), with the heating on, whilst it is dark and cold outside.

I really enjoyed doing this tag, it has definitely got be ready for full-on Autumn! I tag the following people to do the Autumn tag, and anyone else who would like to do it.
