I don't really know why I got so excited over the never-ending straps on the French Connection bags. Maybe because they're very helpful for throwing over the shoulder, like a handbag?

Bought this a couple of weeks ago to try, and it has slotted into my skincare routine quite nicely. A review will be up when I've fully made my mind up on it, but so far so good!

Well hello ducky...

A definite favourite for this month (even though it is about to draw to an end) - this jacket is like a portable blanket. Worth every penny!

My Autumnal To-Do List

Lately my love and excitement for the Autumn season has been growing day by day as more and more signs begin to appear and the fullness of the season draws closer. There is just something about this time of the year that puts a bit smile on my face! So firstly some things that I love about Autumn are:

- The vast amount of new seasonally orientated food and drinks

- When you leave the house in the morning and the air is so cold you can see your breath

- The change in colour of the scenery

- Wrapping up warm (got to love whacking the Ugg boots and parkas back out again)  

- Hello Halloween!

- ... and the food Halloween brings (sweets and toffee apples - I'm in heaven)

- The frost that appears on the grass in the morning and on spiders webs *enters heavenly trance*...

So now that you know some of the things I love about Autumn, I wanted to share some of the things on my list of things to do this season, and hopefully I get around to doing them all..

My To-Do List:

1 . Buy an autumn candle. I've seen a couple from Yankee which I may need to invest in soon..

2 . Carve maybe some more advanced shapes into a pumpkin besides the generic scary face

3 . Make toffee apples

4 . Find a red lipstick that will work for the Autumn season as I am still to find a red that I love and will wear..

5 . Pluck up the courage and watch a scary movie on Halloween (I am a huge wuss with scary films!)

6 . Go to a Halloween party! 

7 . Take my camera out with me everywhere I go for capturing those amazing autumn landscapes and scenery changes.

8 . Definately try any new hot drinks Costa or Starbucks bring out for the season. Yum..

9 . Make my room more autumnal - maybe some different throw cushions?

10 . Stock up on warm socks and jumpers as I seem to live in those when the weather gets colder. Also get my hands on some new gloves and a knitted bobble hat; there's nothing worse than freezing cold ears!

Well I hope you enjoyed my list and maybe it has given you a little bit of inspiration into your fall to-do list! As you can probably tell I love this season and would love to know whats on your list as it may give me some ideas too!

I love spotting those first little signs of Autumn - It's such a gorgeous time of the year

A couple of recent purchases - A gorgeous black floppy hat perfect for those chilly autumn mornings (H&M), and brown gel eyeliner as I think I prefer it to black for everyday use (MAYBELLINE)

No one knows my happiness on buying my favourite childhood sweeties

A trip to London with my art foundation class to the Victoria and Albert Museum. Chinese was an obvious choice...

My newest brush being a fluffy brush from Topshop. Plus it's pink, and you can't argue with that.

A meal this week that just made my day: very fancy chips and burger, with all the fillings to pick from laid out on the table for us (you can't see it but my burger is very full!)

A particular art piece I am pretty proud of involving merging memories

I am really sorry this post was not added on the weekend, but I have just started an art foundation this last week and it was a very fast paced first week and to be honest my days are very long. So I will make an effort to post the pictures on the weekend like I said but sometimes it may be the Monday because I seem to be a very busy bee at the moment! Hope you don't mind..
