I heart fall tag!

Hi everyone,
So I found this really fun autumn themed tag on YouTube and thought I would do a blog post on it as especially here in the UK, we are definitely experiencing the autumn season!
So I found this tag from the YouTuber; MissJenFABULOUS
You can check her out here- http://www.youtube.com/user/MissJenFABULOUS?feature=watch

Now for the questions!

Favourite fall lip product- combination of Topshop Lip Marker in 'Get Lippy' and Topshop Gloss Stick in 'Glisten'



Favourite Fall Nail Polish- Essie's '760-  Carry On' Basically a gorgeous deep red/purple/plum
(excuse the chipped nails!)

Favourite Fall Starbucks Drink- Pumpkin Spice Latte

Favourite Fall Candle- Pumpkin Cheesecake- Pumpkin is THE autumn scent. And this has the added bonus of smelling like cake- it's so sweet and delicious. It also has cinnamon in it which is one of my favourite scents for this time of year



Favourite Fall Scarf- Just big wooly ones or snoods that keep you nice and warm

Haunted House, Haunted Corn Maze or Haunted Hay Ride?- NONE! I am a massive scaredy cat and would hate to do a haunted house. I would get so scared it's unreal. Likewise with the corn maze. We don't really have these in the UK but I guess if I had to pick one I would (reluctantly) do a haunted hay ride

Fave halloween movie?- Double Double Toil and Trouble. This is an old 90's film with Mary-Kate and Ashley as kids starring in it. I've watched this every Halloween period for about 4 years now and I just love it! It's such a cute film (and not very scary yay!)

Favourite candy to eat on Halloween?- Would have to be Haribo

What are you dressing up as for Halloween?- It's my friends' 18th around Halloween and it's a hero and villains theme and I'm going as Supergirl but with a twist....maybe I'll post some pics of my outfit after the party!

Favourite thing about Fall/Autumn- I'm going have to alter this question slightly because I have more than one thing I love about this season!  I love the cosy feeling of this season- wrapping up in loads of layers, sipping hot coffee, wearing slippers, snuggling up to watch movies all wrapped up. I also love spending time with my family during this season and Christmas- we have loads of traditions that we always do every year which is lovely.

So I hope you've enjoyed this tag! I had fun answering the questions

Chanel's Fashion's Night Out Collection

Hey everybody,

So I was browsing the internet and found myself on the Chanel Cosmetics website. (My debit card has been locked away otherwise I would have splurged). Anyway, I stumbled across the FNO collection and fell in love.


How Autumn-y is this?! The rich, deep colours are perfect for the colder months coming up. 

(from top to bottom)
Les Vernis in 'Provocation'
Rouge Allure Velvet in 'Provocation' (I think, the website didn't have the purple lipstick on it)
Les Vernis in 'Delicatesse'
Rouge Allure Velvet in 'La Delicate'
Les Vernis in 'Infidele'
Rouge Allure Velvet in 'L'Infidele'

Chanel is known for producing good-quality, on-trend cosmetics. My auntie has a Chanel nail varnish (I sadly do not have one yet) and she says it's amazing quality. 

This collection is perfect for autumn/winter. My personal favourites are the deep purple nail colour and lipstick. I've recently becoming a sucker for dark vampy lips and I'm sure I'll be wearing it even more with the colder weather. The purple looks like such a sophisticated glamorous colour that you could pair with any outfit. 

I have to say this collection is making me quite excited for autumn. Look out for more Fall Collections posts!

Stay Glamorous,
