Top 5 Autumn Lip colours

I can never really decide what season is my favourite. I do love summer and all that comes with it like cute picnics and holidays but I think fashion and beauty wise, I much prefer Autumn and Winter. I always find it much easier to put together winter outfits because I'm a big lover of a bit of layering. Chunky knitwear, beautiful coats, cute boots and bobble hats are, and I think always will be my favourite things to wear!

With Autumn usually comes darker colours in fashion and beauty- warmer tones such as burgundy and plums are my all time faves!
I've decided to be a little braver this year with my lip colours as last year I only really plucked up the courage for darker colours towards the end of winter and it was a little too late!

I have picked a few of my favourite Autumn/ Winter lip colours ranging from some nudes to plums.

They keep creating beauties!

I have been a lover of Apple since I got my first Iphone a few years back. I guess they are a bit like marmite as some people love them and some are more on the Android side.
I have also adored my beloved Ipad for many a years and therefore never thought I would need/want a Macbook-oh how wrong I was!!
When I saw Apple had brought out a rose gold edition of the macbook- I was sold! 

I'm not usually a gadgets kinda girl but I had it in my head for a few weeks after seeing it (a little like when you see that pair of shoes or handbag whilst shopping but refrain from buying there and then). 
I decided it had been on my mind long enough to know I desperately needed a rose gold Macbook in my life (why do they produce these items in pretty colours?!). I am pretty certain they have probably sold a load more of these beauties since bringing them out in such gorgeous colours so well done Apple, you sucked me in with your pretty pinkness!!



When I went into store to get my hands on this beautiful creation, I was told I was getting a free pair of beats headphones as well (went for rose gold in these too of course!!). WIN!
This is an offer they have on at the moment where if you buy a Macbook, Iphone or Ipad pro, you bag yourself a pair of Beats!
Again- I have never been one to spend lots of money on things like headphones and the Apple ones that come with Iphones etc have always been good enough for me. They are still perfect for portability but I can definitely say the sound quality of the Beats is something else!

I now need to go on a spending ban! (slightly difficult as online shopping is now so much more pleasant when done on a pretty laptop ;))




















Are you on the Apple side or the android/windows side?

Current every day face

I'm not a big lover of the feeling of lots of makeup on my face and never have been. The recent (and unexpected!) summer we have had, has meant that I actually have a little bit of colour on my face and I am not totally pale!
However, I am still very fare skinned and have been absolutely loving The Body Shop's 'Honey Bronze Drops of Sun'.

This comes in a little glass bottle with a dropper applicator. I have been mixing a few drops in with my every day moisturiser to get a little more of a glow. I have found that it just makes me look much more awake and healthy and I rarely miss this step in my morning routine now.
As this step adds such a lovely glow, I have found that I haven't needed to use a foundation or bb cream as this combination works just as well!
My skin has thanked me for this and I have found that Mac Pro Longwear concealer provides a perfect amount of coverage for the under eye circles (no amount of relaxing in the sun will get rid of these!) and any blemishes.
