an autumn asos wishlist

steps outside...grey cold, windy, few leaves on the ground. SMELLS LIKE AUTUMN

Autumn has officially come around and I couldn't be happier. I can't help but look at ASOS when the cold weather hits because they have so many pretty items. For example this cute leaf hair clip.

Here's a round up of my current picks for Autumn.

things i'm looking forward to about autumn

please credit me if you are going to use the above image

Now we are in the middle of September, the days are getting slightly colder and the days are getting shorter. I have already been daydreaming of all the things to do with Autumn! Like the outfits I can wear again or newer ones. Here is a long list for you...

Dark Lips

I can't wait to get the berry and red colours out of my lipstick drawers. There was a time when I thought dark lips didn't suit me, but recently I have become obsessed with the thought of buying all the dark colours in the drugstores.

Fluffy Bobble Beanies

Hats make any outfit look super cute, especially bobble beanies. There are so many in the shops right now and I love my recent purchase from Topshop

Boots

I love to wear my boots anyway, but I had always wanted a pair of cute wellies from Joules for Winter and I did get my first pair. Now I am waiting for the day when I can go to a pumpkin patch and I can wear them on a muddy day.

Fluffy Socks

Wearing socks to bed is always a no-no for me, (those who can sleep with socks on in bed, you are not to be trusted) unless it's a cold Autumn/Winter evening and then I break out the fluffy socks. The cuter and the fluffier they are the better! The White Company do the best socks for bed time.

Big Chunky Scarves

I have quite the collection of scarves, especially the big chunky ones that you can just wrap around your head. I am really looking forward to the colder days to come.

Coats

There's something nice about knowing how cold it is around you and not feeling it because you're essentially a walking hot water bottle. I love having a big cosy jacket on.

What are you looking forward to this Autumn?

an autumn beauty haul

Autumn is officially here although it is currently 26C outside today but in my head it is Autumn. For a couple of weeks now I have been getting together a few bits for the season like clothes and make-up. Today I am sharing with you what I have picked up...

Now, I'm not a huge fan of lip glosses; in fact I am very picky and only use a few. I normally find them sticky and annoying especially when it is windy outside. However these lip glosses are not like that. I decided to pick up two lip glosses from Tanya Burr's Beauty collection. Two that caught my eye were 'Champagne Toast' which is a beautiful nude shade that has a slight shimmer to it. And I picked up 'Berry Picking' which is a deep plum shade. I cannot wait to get tons of wear out of these.

Eye shadow palettes are always my Autumn staple beauty pick as I love to add a bit of glitter and dark colours to my eyes. Whilst I was on FeelUnique.com I decided to pick one of Fleur De Forces Eyeshadow Quad Palettes in 'Lunar Rose' which features purple/rose gold tones. The quality of the shadows are surprisingly really good - they're so soft and buttery. I found them really easy to blend and create looks with.

I decided to treat myself to something from YSL Beauty. I had always liked the look of their eyeshadows so I went for a gorgeous shimmering bronze shade in 'Argane'. I have not yet used it on my eyes but when I swatched it on the back of my hand it looked so pretty.

Lastly I went to the NYX stand again in Boots as I always do (can't help but have a little browse) but browsing turned into buying another two more soft matte lip creams to add to my collection. I went for 'Rome' which is a medium nude with red undertones not only is it flattering but feels and looks sophisticated on. And I picked up 'Cairo' which is a concealer like shade. More to a peach nude shade but very very pale. I weirdly really like this shade.

Have you made any beauty buys for Autumn?
