Fall Quiz.

I was recently tagged in this post, therefore i thought it was only right to post and answer it. 
1. Pumpkin pie or apple pie?
Apple pie is amazing.
2. Favourite fall song?
Really depends what’s in the charts, and what’s new out.
3. Favourite Halloween song?
Marilyn Manson This is Halloween
4. Favourite fall drink?
Hot Chocolate (tends to be soya) is definitely the way forward throughout fall
5. Favourite fall food?
I really love warm chocolate pastries during fall, basically anything that can keep me warm and toasty inside.
6. Favourite Halloween/fall movie?
I haven’t yet found a Halloween film that scares me, I remember my sister running out of the cinema whilst watching Hostel (please comment below any amazing horror films that I can watch). During Halloween I tend to love watching kids Halloween films (definitely the teacher inside me)
7. Favourite fall colour?
I really love red during winter especially tartan; I don’t personally think I wear enough of it. I also love wearing navy and grey during winter.
8. Favourite Halloween candy?
I don’t really eat candy/sweets, if I do I tend to eat chocolate, especially 'Hotel Chocolat' chocolate which is amazing!
9. Leggings or jeans?
Jeans…leggings are good, but I tend to find they fall down constantly and I spend most of the time pulling them up…awkward.
10. Favourite fall blogs?
I don’t have any blogs which I’m more drawn to during fall, I have my favourites which I look at most days, I do however tend to look on Instagram and have a look through other bloggers feeds, and take a look at their pages if they have one.
11. 10 mini pumpkins or 1 big pumpkin?
I don’t like pumpkins…I’m sorry!
12. Favourite book to read in the fall?
I like to read more dark fiction during fall, books that are more mysterious.
13. Favourite candle scent(s)?
Cinnamon is my favourite scent, however I don’t tend to have them in the house because my dad worries about me being a ‘fire hazard’ because of me being so clumsy.
14. Coffee or tea?
I don’t drink coffee so it would always be tea.
15. Favourite fall activity?
Walking in the woods through crunchy leaves with my boyfriend and the dog/s. I also love going to markets throughout fall, they always seem to come into their own during fall and Christmas.
16. Caramel apple or candy apple?
Never tried a candy apple, not sure if they do them in the UK. I did have a caramel apple one and broke my tooth…may try them again if I find them this bonfire night.
17. Favourite fall outfit?
UGGs (not just the fluffy boots, but also their other range of shoes, there all amazing and so warm) and a thick, woolly, super comfy cardigan.
18. Sweaters of jackets?
Cardigans…sorry to add one on.
19. Mittens or gloves?
Fingerless gloves because other wise I cant touch or use my iPhone…which causes way too many problems for me
20. Favourite tree?
…I don’t really know trees apart, my boyfriend does try to teach me, but so far no luck…I do like conkers, so I'm guessing a conker tree? 
21. Halloween or thanksgiving?
Halloween, because we don’t celebrate thanksgiving
22. Sweet treats or salty treats?
Sweet all the way.
23. What do you have for thanksgiving?
We don’t celebrate thanksgiving in the UK…I don’t think
24. Corn maze or haunted house?
Both…the scarier the better!
25. Would you have a fall themed wedding?
If it would promise not to rain, I would definitely have a fall wedding, however due to the fact it tends to rain constantly in the UK summer all the way.
26. Traditional jack-o-lanterns or artistic jack-o-lanterns?
I’m not really sure what a jack-o-lantern is…let me google it. OH a pumping lantern…ok I get it. I really like the traditional ones, however I did see an amazing minion one the other day which was so good!
27. Zombies or vampires?
Vampires all the way
28. Scarves or hats?
Scarves, I really don’t suit a hat, at all. I don’t really know how to wear one if I’m being honest.
29. Do you like baking?
I like my boyfriend and sisters baking, everything I bake tends to burn or turns out wrong, but I like to try anyway.
30.Favourite thing about fall?
I live in-between lots of trees, woods and countryside; therefore my view during fall is amazing and colourful! I also love walking through crunchy leaves during fall…I’m definitely one giant child at heart. 


Magnifibres.

Magnifibres -
Brush-On False Lashes
I am a real lover of lashes. I rarely wear falsies (I find them really hard to apply) but I love the fluttery-eyed look, so these Magnifibres Brush-on False Lashes sounded like just the ticket. Magnifibres are really easy to use. You just apply your normal mascara and then immediately brush on the fibres just like you would apply mascara. You then wait 30 seconds and then do a second coat of regular mascara, covering the Magnifibres. It does take a little while to get used to in order to make it work perfectly, however once you get used to applying it correctly your good to go.
When I ordered this, I was somewhat dubious about if it would work or not. Well, I was wrong. It does give you thicker, slightly longer lashes. The build-up is evident when doing the process once. You can also build up and add more product and mascara layers, to create an even more dramatic look. It comes off with your mascara, so no special treatment needed there. It looks like there is plenty in the bottle!

Overall, I love this product! It’s a great alternative to false lashes and truly worth the £21 they retail for, especially when you compare them with how much a good pair of false lashes cost.

Pure Transformation.

bareMinerals -
Pure Transformation Night Treatment  
Recently I have been on a massive bareMinerals mission. For some reason right now their products just seem to be doing my skin a lot of good. Therefore I thought I would give something from their skin care line a go, aimed at reducing pores (my main nemesis) I decided to try this night treatment…its beyond amazing.

Autumn Reads.

Autumn/Winter is my favourite time to read. The dark nights and the cold weather make snuggling up with a good book a great idea for lonely evenings. Therefore I thought I would share with you some of the great books I have read recently.  I will just include a brief intro about the story, as I don’t want to give anything away.
