I'm loving in Autumn so far...

Hi, it's Meg.

As probably every other blogger and person thinks too, Autumn is the best season for so many reasons! Here are  some of my autumnal captures and reasons why I'm loving Autumn right now.

    •the rain and how it sounds-it's so therapeutic!

    •the change in the trees and all the 'autumnalness' around us!

    •HALLOWEEN!! Look out for my Halloween post coming on Friday!

    •baking & all the sweet & festive scents around us!

    •reading all the good books!

    •cosy blankets, hot chocolates, sitting around with my family is perfection!

    •Bloglovin, Youtube, Instagram and all those festive posts make me so happy!

    •big warm knits are just lovely!

    •festive films!

    •fairy lights! 

If this doesn't get you feeling seasonal I don't know what will! Now, all you need to do is to make yourself a hot chocolate, put something comfy on and do something you love! 

That's it! I'll see you tomorrow for a new post!

Red Toned Lips & Subtle Glow|FOTD

 

Hi, it's Meg.

Today I'm going to show you what I wore on my face today! I was reading through some blogs and saw one of these and felt inspired!

My skin has been quite bad recently so I used my Tea Tree &Witch Hazel Concealer on my blemishes and slightly under my eyes. I loved this concealer as it's so natural and glides on beautifully. It's quite low coverage but that's all I'm willing to wear at the moment. I then added a bit more definition to my brows using Benefit's Goof Proof Brow Pencil and finished my base with high lights by technic. This highlighter gives a subtle glow and enhances my natural features. To finish I used my Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara, applied my Baby Lips Dr. Rescue in Too Cool to prime my lips for a matte lip and then put on my Barry M lipstick in 164. This is very autumnal lip with it's red under tones - it's a recent purchase and I haven't looked back!

My Burgundy and Beige Outfit

 Hi, it's Meg. 

As it's Sunday and it's raining outside I thought i'd do a fashion post! I've been seeing so many around recently and although i have a broken ankle this isn't going to stop me! I also went out to this cute restaurant and it was so photogenic and rustic if you're wondering where I took these photos. I've never done a fashion post before so I hope this is okay! 

I love this outfit because of the deep burgundy stripes and how the beige cardigan complements it! I also like the black rim of the top and the skirt as it sits nicely and is very comfortable.

Top - F&F

Skirt - New Look

Leggings - Primark

Cardigan - Cashmere

Shoe(!) - F&F

I hope you've enjoyed this post and I'll see you again tomorrow!

Sick Day Essentials

Hi, it's Meg

It's autumn (woo!!) but that means the weather is getting colder and everyone is getting ill! Unfortunately, I haven't been 'ill' in the fact ive had a cold but instead ive broken my ankle which meant 2 weeks off school... However, instead of rambling I'm going to talk you through some essentials everyone needs for this Autumn and Winter season.

Some essentials include: Soap&Glory body wash, lip balm, hand balm, paracetamol/ibuprofen etc., clean bed sheets and rest!

These are all very important in ensure you get better because when i'm ill the best thing i do an can recommend to you is to have a good nights rest then to get up, get clean and work through it. My body wash at the moment is the Soap&Glory Foam Call; it is a very fresh and a fruity scent which I love. It is also so, so strong! 100% makes me feel so clean and so much better! I also love clean bed sheets because when you're ill there's nothing better then to just change your bed sheets and get into them feeling all clean and lovely! Also, once you've been ill there's a load of bacteria in your sheets so changing them is also great from a hygiene point of view. Again, taking medication is also a necessity when you're ill. This includes, paracetamol, ibuprofen etc. Some other essentials are lip balms and hand balms. These are great because as it's getting colder my lips chap and my hands become really rough so products like these are really moisturising. Finally, rest is so important because although getting through it is good you still need to take a day to just sleep it off! And reading a good book is great too! These are all my essentials that you may need if you're ill even though I hope you don't get ill!

I hope you've had a great day and you've enjoyed this post and I'll see you tomorrow again!

Top 5 Autumn Lip Picks

Hi, it's Meg.
This post marks the start off a new post everyday for a week - yayay!! Anyway, today I'm going to show you some of my favorite and go to lip picks for this season. Let's get started! They're all quite different but there's a definite scheme in them. Anyway, here they are:

As you can see, there's a two dark lip products and the others are more nudes. From left to right is Patisserie - MAC, Old Hollywood - Sleek Matte Me Smooth Matte Lip Cream, Matte Mystic Marsala - MUA, Rose Bud - Natural Collection Moisture Shine Lipstick and Cannes - NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream.

They're all so beautiful and some, for me, quite daring! Patisserie by MAC is quite a pinky colour which I love to wear on days where it's quite a sunny autumnal day because it's very natural, long lasting and very in my comfort zone so something I'm always reaching for. I love Old Hollywood by Sleek yet haven't been brave enough to wear it out the house! It's a deep, matte and dark red with a consistency I like but I think applies better with a lip balm on underneath. Mystic Marsala by MUA is also beautiful because it's still a dark and matte red and easier to wear. The penultimate of my lip picks is Natural Collection's Moisture Shine Lipstick. I love this because it's very much of a balm with more colour than an average lip balm if you get what I mean?! Anyway, it's very hydrating and perfect for an easy autumnal day! And finally, my favourite - NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream. It's in Cannes and it's such an autumnal lip cream. It has slight orange and pink undertones but has those rustic vibes to it which I love. It's a matte but not drying at all and it also lasts for such a long time. Not only this but it's so great for drugstore and smells so, so nice!

Here are some more in depth swatches on each lip product:

Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed this post and I'll see you again with a new post tomorrow!

Autumn/Winter Wishlist 2016|Collab

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Hi, it's Meg. I'm doing a collab as you can probably tell and it is with the lovely Holly. Check out her blog here for amazing posts and make sure to follow her on bloglovin' too! Today I'm doing my Autumn and Winter wishlist! Hopefully, I can inspire you with some of these products I'm sharing! Even though autumn technically started a few weeks ago this still counts, right? Lets get on with it!
You can shop all these items too! 

1) Fortune Favours The Brave by Makeup Revolution
This palette is gorgeous!! It is a mix of deep and warm shades that I think I would actually use to create different and more in depth eye looks. As well as this, it comes in at £9.99 and with the fantastic quality Makeup Revolution eye shadows are this is brilliant! I would love to perhaps buy this palette during the autumn and winter months and do a full review and test all of the shades and, if i do, i'll let you know about it! The dark, deep and warm colours just melt my heart ahhh...

2)Marble Wall Art
As I've become more of a 'blogger' if you get what I mean I've gotten more into MARBLE! Taking those all important marble flat lays is where it's at on instagram! Currently, I use a bit of printed off marble paper but I'd love something like Coconut Lane's wall art which has, "I'm a blogger, what's your super power?" on it to hang on my wall. They're so pretty and would help in the transition of my room; I'm trying to make it more older and more like a teenagers bedroom, not a pretty pink room like it is now!! Anyway, I'm rambling so let's move on...

3)Buy and wear a dark lip 
No particular dark lipstick, just a nice berry lip colour to try! I don't think I suit dark lip colours but I may as well try for Autumn/Winter goals sake!

4)A Cute Beanie
Beanies are very cute and are much of an autumnal fashion essential and staple to me. I don't have a beanie but really want one for as soon as I get out of my cast and can be very fashionable and make a lot of effort again. I would really like a grey or purple beanie with a little bobble on the top aha! They're really, really cute and are usually quite cheap. 

5)Over the top LUSH Bathbombs  
LUSH bathboms are so lovely and 100% get me in the festive mood! Once LUSH's Christmas range is out I know it's nearly Christmas... Lush bathbombs are so cute and smell so beautiful with my favourite being So White. I''m so excited for buying some and also really want to get a cinnamon kind of flavoured one and I'm sure LUSH have one!

Anyway, that's it! I hope you've enjoyed this post and if you have make sure to follow me on bloglovin' Have a good day and I'll see you soon! 
Bye!
