HALLOWEEN WEEK: THE HALLOWEEN TAG

Hey guys, i hope you are all having a great day whatever you are up to! So for today's post i had planned on doing some Halloween makeup ideas but i completely failed as i am just not great at doing that type of makeup and i didn't want to post something i wasn't happy with. I was browsing through twitter and discovered that someone had done a "Halloween Tag" blog post and thought i would give that a go in it's place for a little fun...

1. What is your favourite Halloween movie?

Hands down this has to be Hocus Pocus, it is such a classic film and i love me some Sarah Jessica Parker.

2. 1-10 how much do you enjoy Halloween?

Probably around 8, i really wish we went all out in England like in America but we don't.

3. What is your fondest Halloween memory?

Having my own last minute costume made when i was little out of a black bin bag and some paper stars, but it was my favourite thing.

4. Have you always been a Halloween lover?

Yes as fall is one of my favourite times of year, just all the pretty autumnal colours.

5. How do you get into the Halloween spirit?

Either watching Hocus Pocus, carving a pumpkin or baking cupcakes.

6. Favourite Halloween decorations?

It's got to be pumpkins, i mean that's a no brainer.

7. Favourite Halloween/Fall scent?

Yankee Candle either Ghostly Treats, Candy Corn or Fireside Treats.

8. Favourite Candy?

Candy Corn is the best thing ever, yet you can only get your hands on them in American style sweet shops in the UK which is so annoying!

9. Vampires or Zombies?

Vampires obviously, i love me some Damon Salvatore.

10. What is your weird/odd fear?

Spiders and all creepy crawlies, which isn't odd really i suppose.

11. Last but not least, do you believe in ghosts?

I kind of do and don't at the same time, if i ever saw one i would believe it!

I hope you liked this tag post and have a great weekend...

I HEART FALL TAG

Hey guys, i hope you've all had a great weekend whatever you have been up to. So as we have been having a fair few dark/cloudy mornings in the UK as of late, it is safe to say that Fall is definitely on it's way. I have already seen a couple of people doing the "i heart fall tag" so i thought for today's blog post i thought i would answer the set questions myself...

1. Favourite Fall Lip Product?

When the colder months come around i am definitely all about keeping my lips moisturized so lip balms become my best friend, my favourite ones are the Balmi lip cubes. For some colour as i am never one for a red lip i like to keep things nude like Creme D'Nude from MAC.

2. Favourite Fall Nail Polish?

I am all about them vampy dark shades when it comes to winter, i did a blog post previously on my top ten favourite nail polishes for a/w you can check it out here:

3. Favourite Starbucks Fall Drink?

This is such an easy question to answer without a doubt the Pumpkin Spiced Latte.

4. Favourite Fall Candle?

Obviously it is going to be a Yankee Candle of some sort and this year i am obsessed with the Halloween Collection and especially the Candy Corn scent.

5. Favourite Fall Accessory?

Scarves! They are such an easy way to look "autumnal" and keep warm at the same time.

6. Haunted House or Haunted Hay Ride?

  I have never been on a haunted hay ride and to be honest i'm not entirely sure what one of those are so i would have to choose a haunted house!

7. Favourite Halloween Movie?

I am not one for horror films as such, it's not that i am scared of them it just isn't my thing.

8. Favourite candy to eat on Halloween?

Candy Corn!!!! or even those hard boiled lollies with the sherbet inside.

9. What are you dressing up as on Halloween?

Probably nothing as we never really do the whole Halloween scene in the UK as much as they do in America. Although for the last couple of years i have created this cat makeup look!

10. What is your favourite thing about Fall?

So many different things besides all of the things i have mentioned above. I love it when the leaves change colour and the sound they make when you walk through them and the yearly Pretty Little Liars Halloween special.

I hope you enjoyed this post and got to know the things i love during the Fall, i also tag anyone who wants to give the questions ago.

WHAT'S IN MY HANDBAG (UPDATED)

Hey guys, i hope you are all having a great day! As i explained in yesterday's post there was a slight glitch with publishing this particular post on Friday therefore i am posting it today. I mentioned in my last non beauty favourites post that i was in love with my new handbag and would more than likely do an updated "what's in my handbag" so finally here it is...

This is my new bag that i got last month actually, it's by Fiorelli and it's called the Kenzie monochrome tote. The bag itself should of been £69 but i got it for a steal in the sale for half price. It's just the type of bag i have been looking to get for a long time now but just hadn't found the right one until this one. It has two different ways of carrying the bag either with the shorter handles so you can carry it on your arm or it has a long detachable handle which you can change the length of.

Now for what's inside of my handbag...

Purse: French Connection

Sunglasses: New Look (Case from River Island)

Nurofen Tablets and Hay Fever Tablets (Essential)

Hand Gel: Wilko's Wild Berry

2 Extra Chewing Gum (Cause apparently one isn't enough)

Notebook: Morrisons 

Pen: Gift from my Mum and Dad

Kleenex Tissues

Soap&Glory Hand Food

Hair Tie: H&M

Variety of Lip Products: Essence Lip Liner in Stain Mauve, MAC Snob Lipstick, Revlon ColorStay MoistureStain in Parisian Passion and NYX Butter Gloss in Élair.

(I also usually keep my iPhone and Keys in here too but they weren't in there at the time).
