Yay!! I l was so happy when Kaitlin from Blushing Beauty tagged me to do the Autumn Tag. This is my favorite time of year so I have lots of favorites to share with you guys. This isn’t all beauty, so this is kind of a great tag to get to know me a little bit better!
Favorite thing about Autumn?
I just love everything about this time of year. Living in Atlanta, Autumn/Fall means no longer dealing with horribly humid, hot weather. The leaves are changing colors, I can finally drink a cup of coffee on my porch and I can soon carve pumpkins and pass out candy to the kids. I also LOVE Fall clothes. Sweaters, leggings and boots. Can’t get enough of it.
Favorite Drink?
Oh this is a hard one! Starbucks has such good (but so bad for you) drinks this time of year. I am a lover of the Pumpkin Spice Latte and the Salted Caramel Mocha. Yumm! I also love a good cup of hot cider. I also love a good glass of merlot. Ok…I’m getting thirsty!!
Favorite Scent or Candle?
Bath and Body Works has created the perfect collection of products for Autumn/Fall. I have the the Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Plug-In’s around my house currently, but I also love Leaves and Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin. I love burning the Mahogany Teakwood Candle in my bedroom and office.
Best Lipstick?
Oh man. What a good questions!! I love a good, bold/dark lip this time of year. I put away all of my bright pinks and coral shades and break out my wine inspired shades. Deep, dark reds are my favorite. I love what a statement lip can do for your look. I also love the Phenombre lip look! Simply line the lip with a darker liner and fill in the lips with a lighter lipstick. Simple and so gorgeous! Read about the Phenombre lip I featured in my recent post!
Go To Moisturizer?
I have been keeping a jar of The Body Shops Coconut Body Butter in my bathroom. I don’t even dry off after getting out of the shower. I just put this all over my skin and my skin stays very smooth. Plus, the jars are very inexpensive and they last a long time! It also comes in a lot of different scents or unscented.
Favorite Go To Color for the eyes?
I love nudes and browns. I can’t get enough of my Urban Decay Naked Palette. It’s still my go-to palette for most of my looks. It’s perfect for simple looks to smokey eyes. Gorgeous colors!
Favorite Music to Listen To?
This varies from day to day. Lately I’ve been listening to the new Kings of Leon album, but I also LOVE so many different types of music. The other day I listened to French music just because it put me in a good mood to clean. Who doesn’t want to feel chic? I can’t wait for Katy Perry’s new album and I’m excited to hear Miley’s new music, even though her videos are killing me!!
Favorite Outfit to Wear?
This time of year means sweaters and leggings! I don’t care what you think about leggings, but there is nothing better than being cozy and comfortable. They can be paired with heels or flats, whatever you like. Don’t even get me started on sweaters. I LOVE them and can’t wait until I can wear them again!!
Favorite Autumn Treat?
Pumpkin Pie! Hands down the best. If you love pumpkin, then you need to try the Cheesecake Factory’s Pumpkin Cheesecake. Oh my!! It will change your life.
Favorite Place to Be?
At home, with the fireplace on. Relaxing with my husband and our animals. It’s the simple things!
There ya have it! Be sure to tell me what some of your favorite things about Autumn/Fall are!
