Hello October

Opps yet again my hello month post is not at the start of the month, sorry for the delay! But it's here and I shall get better at this, promise!

So Hello October, how are you?



1) Start of Autumn
Although I said September started to feel like Autumn it's not officially Autumn until October and you can defiantly tell, it's so bitter now when your outside! But I love it because it means we are closer to Christmas!

2) Coats!
Okay so this seems silly but this month I am looking forward to buying and wearing coats! I have a super lovely one which is a dark cream with leather sleeves, a proper autumn coat but I want to buy more of a winter one and pair it with a cute scarf and that is me toastie for winter! 

3) Candles! 
I always feel a bit silly burning candles in summer because the nights are generally light till late and it's hot! But as soon as it gets to autumn winter my room constantly has candles burning! Only when I'm around though don't worry! I'm not a candle jar person I buy lots of tea lights because I have nice tea light holders! My faves to burn at the moment are salted caramel - yankee! & some from tesco which are Damson and Pomegranate!

4) Conkers
Okay so recently I was at my grandparents house and noticed Conkers all over the floor below there conker tree! I completely forgot about Conkers and it's made me want to go for long walks in the park conkering! (In my coat and scarf ooooo)

5) New Beginnings  
Okay so this isn't seasonal but this month on the 20th I start my new full time job which is so exciting I cannot wait to get back into a routine and start earning some proper money!  

6) Ed Sheeran 
This month I have an Ed Sheeran concert on the 20th which I am so excited for because I love him and I get to spend this evening with my best friend!

7) LUSH!
Okay so for those of you who don't know I'm a lush a holic! I love anything to do with lush and this month they start putting out there Christmas stock which I love! ( fairy wand being my fave) so this is something I am looking forward to!

8) Giving blood
So every few months I go to my local community centre and give blood and this month I am giving blood. I've included this because I love the feeling you get after giving blood, the proud satisfied happy feeling of knowing your helping someone who needs it!

9) Mums birthday! 
This month it's mums birthday and that makes me really happy because we get to spoil her and treat her to things she wouldn't normally get to have all year round! 

10) Finally Halloween! 
Okay so I have to admit I'm not this biggest Halloween lover, I'm a complete scaredy cat when it comes to horror so Halloween isn't really my favourite but I do love carving a pumpkin and putting a tea light in it! It also comes with loads of baking inspiration which I will hopefully try and post on here for you all! 

So there's my hopes and things I'm looking forward to in October! Hope you enjoyed this post! Please let me know what you enjoy about October or what you have to look forward to!

Thanks for reading!

September Favourites!

Hi guys!

So this is my first ever favourites post! YAY! I'm throwing a party and you're all invited! ( okay so I lied but I wish I could ) 

I'm going to make this a regular post just like the 'hello different months' which I said about in my hello September blog post!

Toooo the favourites...

Skincare
Okay so the first is something most of you will cry about but I'm very sorry... it's the NO.7 beautiful skin face wipes. I absolutely adore them they make your skin feel lovely and get rid of any rubbish which is left on your face and make up! They're quite expensive at £7 but boots are always doing NO.7 skincare vouchers which gets your £5 off which is handy! So keep an eye out! ( I know I'm meant to hate make up wipes but I can't hate these ones sorry)


Beauty

This months beauty favourites is a mascara, I don't normally wear mascara on an everyday basis but this one is so good and makes such a noticeable differents that I have started to use it more often! It's the Maybelline New York the colossal go extreme volum'. Absolutely amazing would recommend to anyone. I have it in very black and it's amazing! 





Clothing

I AM IN LOOOOOVE WITH H&M! So I've always been in and out of H&M but I find it a bit of a hit and miss shop meaning I don't rely on it as my go to shop but recently I have been! It's been amazing! I've picked up quite a few things recently ( if you'd like me to show you in a haul post let me know ) but my two favourite items are my black and white striped skater dress. I can't remember how much it was think around £20 but I bought it recently so if you look online it will be there:) (looked online and can't find it:( although it's still in my local store so defo pop into your local and have a look!) 

This gorgeous mustard cardigan! More than I would normally pay for a cardigan but it's so comfortable and beautiful for £7.99!

Film

Deciding on a film was a hard one for me because I've been really slow recently at watching films! I have a stack for me waiting to watch and I have a list of things i want to see at the cinema! 

But because it's started to get ALOT colder and nights in are becoming a lot more frequent I've decided Frozen is my film favourite of the month! Watching it on a cold night is perfect! 

TV programmes 

If you follow me on twitter then you will probably be aware that I am completely obbsessed at the moment with The Vampire Diaries!! Oh my goodness why didn't I watch it back in 2009! It's amazing defo check it out if you haven't already! Team Stefan or Team Damon?

Oooooh they're just so beautiful gah!


Soooo that was my first favourites post! Also I was thinking about doing blogmas? Posting a blog post everyday on December some just what I've done that day and other more general posts, any thoughts? 

Keep an eye out for my super exciting blackberry recipe post and a Halloween inspired post too, I also have a few reviews this month too!

Thank you for reading, have a great day! Leave a comment and let me know so of your favourites!
