Favorite Fall Beauty Trends | Adore Me

Hi lovely reader! One thing I love about fall are the beauty trends. The lips shapes get darker, the eyeshadows get warmer, and berry toned everything fills the shelves. In celebration of all things fall beauty, Adore Me has launched a project themed around the oh so festive autumnal palettes of this year and their new October Showroom!

As I've said before, if what you've got on under your clothes coordinates with what you've got going on on the outside, you instantly feel like you've for something together for the day. For today's post I wanted to share my top 3 favorite makeup for fall in looks that I have seen lately on instagram, as well as various pieces from Adore Me that coordinate beautifully with each of the looks!

This year I am all about the satin finish bronze and copper colored eyeshadows. They can be layered and mixed, paired with a darker brown and smoked out for a more dramatic look or simply worn on their own for a daytime look. These warm shades have been my go to this month! I would say that these tones are pretty classic for fall so to go along with that, I think that the is "Matilda" pajama set from their sleepwear collection evokes just that. They are classic, simple, and oh so cozy!

Another eyeshadow and lipstick combo that I have seen a lot that I like is a simple barely there eyeshadow with maybe a touch of glitter and a strong lip. To me having a strong lip always gives me a boost of confidence and when I saw the Damariss bra and panty I immediately got that same vibe. I love the wine color as well as the flower embroidery details on the cups.

Speaking of lips, without a doubt, my favorite beauty trend for fall is a berry or burgundy lip! Again with a bold lip! Whenever I put on a good berry tone I instantly feel so autumnal. This Noreh Contour bra is the perfect shade for fall and I love the cut of this bra with the lace detail that carries down the sides!!

What are your favorite fall beauty trends this year?? Anyone you think particularly rocks a good autumnal look?

Halloween | TBT

Hello lovely reader! November is here and it's almost the weekend! It's crazy that in just a few short weeks, turkey and stuffing and all things Thanksgiving will be occurring. In honor of tbt or "Throwback Thursday", I wanted to share some pics from last weekend. I was super festive and enjoyed every minute of it, from going to a pumpkin patch to navigating through a corn maze with friends, I had a great Halloween weekend! 

On Friday night I went to the cutest pumpkin patch I've ever seen! It was super quaint and the perfect place to take some fall pics! 

Just a little snack before the Halloween activities got started. I hadn't had fruit snacks in forever and it definitely took me back to grade school. 

Our apartment has been decorated since the first weekend in October...the spider web lights are my favorite 

A little Halloween OOTD. I was kind of in love my look for the day, especially my cranberry lip! I see the Revlon "Just Bitten Kissable" lip stain in the shade 005. 

Consumed by corn

Indoor s'mores because the outdoors didn't want to cooperate. 

What did you do on Halloween? Xx

Everything October | iPhone Snaps

Hiya lovely reader! How has your October been? Mine has been autumnally festive and extremely busy. The leaves have changed, the days and nights are cooler, and my apartment is decked out with pumpkins and purple lights. Pumpkin spice cookies sit atop the counter and cozying up with a blanket at night has become a regular occurrence. Fall is here! 

First weekend of October = decoration shopping

Halloween snack cakes. My flatmate bought these and I hadn't had them in forever! Brought me back to grade school, where my best friend would have a snack cake for every single holiday. I was more of a "Cosmic Brownies" girl myself...

Omelette and toast on a Sunday morning. 

Hard at work on some art. I'm going to do a post on this coming up, but any guesses to who it may be?

Soaking up the sun and nice weather before it gets too cold, also loving my new backpack. 

Taking part in a lovely event for "Breast Cancer Awareness Month"

All the candy corn. I'm actually not a fan of candy corn or pumpkins but my flatmates are and I like how they look so...

Felt very autumnal in my army green sweater, skinny jeans, and brown chelsea boots. 

Cozy morning called for toast with peach jelly, quiche, and a movie.

What have you been doing this month? Anything autumnal? Xx

Crisp Air and Crunching Leaves | Autumn Tag

Hiya lovely reader! Happy Fall!!! I love this time of year, so what better way to celebrate than with an autumnal tag? Enjoy!

Favorite thing about Autumn?

Everything! The crispness, the fashion, the makeup looks, pumpkin flavored treats, and the beautiful colors in the trees.

Favorite drink? 

Okay, I don't drink coffee so I'm not a "Pumpkin Spice Latte" fanatic. I drink water, and only water. Call me unoriginal or maybe you'll call me original, depends on your "pumpkin spice views" really.

Favorite candle?

For this time of year the candle I love to burn is a s'mores scented one that my friend gave me from Yankee Candle. (I made the mistake of getting on the Yankee Candle website to try and find a link and oh my, they have so many amazing sounding autumnal related candles) I love a lot of the scents that come with this time of year, vanilla, apple cinnamon, spiced pumpkin, I could go on.

Go to moisturizer?

Soap and Glory "The Righteous Butter"! The last two years, my hands have tended to become dryer when the weather starts to get cooler (adult life probz..). I love this moisturizer though, it smells greater and with it being a body butter its thick and leave my hands feeling instantly softer. It's also not super greasy or sticky feeling after applying it, personally I hate feeling like I have lotion on my hands. So overall I would highly recommend this, the packaging is also so cute of course.

Go to colours for the eyes?

Natural and warm tones, champagne, browns, auburns, dark purple for the outer corners.

Favorite outfit to wear?

Skinny jeans, a cozy chunky sweater, black or brown chelsea boots, an army green jacket...perfect!

Favorite place to be?

If it's not to chilly and a sunny day, outside, walking around downtown, looking at cute little shops, hearing the leaves crunch beneath my feet. At night, cozied up in my pajamas, on the couch with a blanket, my laptop or a good movie, and with friends. 

What is your favorite thing about fall? Xx

Pumpkin Bars | Healthy Living

Hey there lovely readers! With fall in full swing comes pumpkin flavored everything! So of course I want to make and eat every pumpkiny (not a word but I just made it one) recipe that I see. I saw this one on Popsugar and it caught my eye, particularly because it is only 70 calories per bar!! I gave them a go last weekend and was very pleased with the results. They aren't super sweet but are very very moist and delicious. So if you're looking for a healthy festive treat this fall, try this recipe out! 

Popsugars lovely enticing mouth watering pic:)

This is what mine looked like:)

What fall recipes are you loving? Let me know in the comments. Xx
