Hot list
1. Winter clothes shopping!
I finally got around to getting my winter wardrobe together, and it was well worth the wait! You can view my haul in full on my youtube channel!
2. MAC lipsticks
Ok, £15.50 is a lot of money for a lipstick but mac lipsticks are the best and are worthy of their high price tag! My newest addition to my collection is a matte one in the shade nouvelle vogue (a mid pink shade) and it is fabulous! The Matt formula makes it super long wearing too!
3. Sober October. As somebody who choses not to drink alcohol, it's always nice when other people give it up for a month and keep me company in the land of sober! Plus I'm sure it does people good to give their livers a rest!
4. Christmas things appearing in shops! Yayyy the excitement when you see them! I've made SIX Christmas decor purchased already! Plus some Christmas lush products too! Also all of the coca cola bottles are now Christmas and Santa themed! Hurrahhhh!
5. Clocks going back.
I know a lot of people hate this because it means it goes dark at 4pm but honestly what's more cosy than coming home from work, lighting your candles in the darkened room and snuggling up in your onesie! Plus it gave us an extra hour in bed too!
6. Yankee Candles.
My current favourites are actually from the simply home range and they are Merry Berry & Holiday Magic. Perfect winter scents to uplift your spirit and make you feel all warm and cosy!
7. Lip balm.
This weather has been beating my lips (plus I think my new mac matte lipstick is pretty drying too) so I've been using my EOS in Strawberry Sorbet loads and also a cherry Chapstick at work which tastes too good!
8. Subscribers & meeting you guys!
I was lucky enough to meet one of my subscribers in real life this month and it was amazing! She spotted me and came over to introduce herself and chat! It was honestly so heartwarming and amazing! I feel very blessed to have such amazing subscribers as you guys and if you're reading thes Louise, hi! And thankyou!
9. The Apprentice!
One of my favourite TV shows that I watch religiously every year! From Alan Sugars hilarious puns to the idiotic candidates it always makes for an amusing series!
10. My birthday!
It was my birthday on the 19th and not only did I get tonnes of wonderful cards and gifts, money & chocolates but I also got a tonne of messages from youtube subscribers which meant the world to me! Stevo from Australia even made me a happy birthday video! Bonkers!!
NOT LIST
1. Viruses.
In the space of two weeks I caught a stomach bug and then a cold! So. Not. Cool!
2. Leaking pipes!
Yes I had the joys of a leaking pipe from my brand new boiler which resulted in another plumber visit and a need to redecorate the entrance hall! Grrrr!
3. Hurricane gonzalo
Yep, that's right us lovely british folk took a beating from the back end of hurricane gonzalo and my gosh it was bad! Typically for me it was a day I was travelling by rail resulting in huge delays and getting soaked by hail and rain, not to mention my umbrella literally snapping in half and my paper primark bag disintegrating! The stress! First world problems or what?
4. Halloween
Sorry to anyone who loves it but for me it's just no biggie! I don't like scary stuff and I don't have kids so there's really not much in it for me! It seems to be getting pretty over rated these days! Bah humbug!
5. iPhone 6.
I'm a tad behind the times but I seen one in real life for the first time this week and it's freaking huge!! Not cool!
6. Saving up for Christmas.
I LOVE Christmas and I love buying gifts for people but what I don't love is saving up money for it! No hauls? Booooo.
