I’ve been tagged by the gorgeous Emily Rose to do this
TAG. I absolutely adore the autumn season so there’s loads I’ve got to talk
about.
1. Coffee - What is your favourite seasonal drink from
Starbucks or any other coffee shop?
I suck because I very rarely go into Starbucks because
there’s not one close enough to me. I’m absolutely DETERMINED this year to try
the Pumpkin Spiced Latte and the Gingerbread Latte if it kills me. I usually
stick to my guns and go for a good old comforting Vanilla Latte, which is a
lovely winter warmer, but I can imagine the two most popular and most talked
about seasonal lattes are going to be gorgeous, and a wonderful way to break up
my Christmas shopping trips.
2. Accessories - What do you opt for scarf, boots or
gloves?
I opt for scarves and boots! I love my tartan scarves
around autumn time because it’s iconic pattern screams out fall, which I love.
I wait all summer for it to be time to break it out of the wardrobe and when I
do, I can’t help but feel all wintery and excited. As for boots, I’m a chronic
boot wearer and I practically live in my Doc Martens. For autumn I add a layer
of woolly sock, and incorporate riding boots and cleated sole boots with a
small heel into my footwear selection.
3. Music - What's your favourite music to listen to
during autumn?
My music taste tends to change with the seasons, so
when autumn rolls around I get right back into my classic fall favourites.
Mumford and Sons is perfect, and I start listening to Matt Corby, Laura
Marling, Paolo Nutini, The Maccabees, Foals and The Doors. I never tend to
stray too far from my all time favourites though; and always have time for
Nicki Minaj and Backbeat Soundsystems!
4. Perfume - What's your favourite scent for this time
of the year?
Hmm, my all time favourite scent is Daisy by Marc Jacobs,
which definitely doesn’t scream ‘autumn’, but I still spritz it on every
morning because I feel like it suits me and my style and I always feel
completely done when I’ve got it on. I have recently been lusting after the
Body Shop’s mists, though, and they’ve got a vanilla scent I’m dying to try
over the winter months.
5. Candles - What scents will you be burning this
season?
I’m rubbish at candles. I love them, I love having
them in my room, but usually I’m out in the evenings so I very rarely get to
snuggle up on my bed, light my candles and read a book. I’ve got coconut and
vanilla scented candles right now, but the cinnamon and spiced apple candles
are the ones which are really taking my fancy. I just need to go and pick some
up!
6. What do you love most about Autumn?
The colours; the leaves falling from the trees and the
cold weather creeping in slowly. I love grey mornings and hearing the rain
against the window. I love cosy fluffy slipper socks and cups of tea and hot
chocolate. I love lighting the fire and I love when it gets dark early in the
evenings. I also adore the evening markets which start to pop up more
frequently in the lead up to Christmas, and obviously the stodgy comfort food!
7. Make-up - favourite make up look?
It can be hard to create a quintessentially autumn
look that doesn’t involve a black flick and berry lips, but luckily that’s
probably my favourite one. I also dig back out my trusty and much-loved Naked and
Naked 3 palettes and use the browns and dusty rose/plum shades to create looks
with the typical autumn shades.
8. What're you looking forward to most this Autumn?
Bus rides in the dark, early nights, evenings inside
in front of the fire and eating my body weight in cottage pie!
I’d like to Tag Chloe Norton, Gemma Frudd, Katie Snooks
and Andrea (RosyChicc)! Of course feel free to do it even if I haven’t tagged
you, and be sure to leave your link below so I can have a read!
Love Daisy by Marc Jacobs too <3
