Amy Louise : accessories

Hello girls,

So the lovely MJ over at mjintheskywithglitter nominated me for the Autumn Tag that she had just done. This is the first that I had seen of this so was excited to find out what it was all about.

So I have already done 2 posts on this new season and just written a Guest Post for Amanda at dreamingxpretty and have seen shops now stocked with their knitwear, coats, scarfs and boots so I'm totally ready to enjoy Autumn and now this tag.

1. Coffee - What's your favourite seasonal drink from Starbucks or any other coffee shop?

I mentioned this in my "Why I love Autumn" post. Im a lover of Costa and I look forward to their seasonal drinks for Autumn/Christmas. My favourite is the Gingerbread Latter followed closely by a Cinnamon Latte.

2. Accessories - What do you opt for, scarf, boots or gloves?

I think I'm more of a lover of Boots. I have a beautiful pair of black riding boots, Casual Chelsea boots and cut out blocked heel boots and also a pair of brown leather high leg heeled boots. Depending what and why I'm going I have a variety to choose from.

3. Music - What's your favourite music to listen to during autumn?

I don't have specific favourite autumnal tunes, I kind of just listen to whatever is on the radio, music channels.

4. Perfume - What's your favourite scent for this time of the year?

I wouldn't say I have a favourite scent for Autumn. I have lots of different perfumes, my recent purchase being the Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream. I love Miss Dior and Dior Addict 2. I prefer and suit the more fruity and floral scents. However I did have the Dior Addict which I alway thought had a deep scent so therefore only used in the evenings which I can now associate with winter.

5. Candles - What scents will you be burning this season?

I think everyone will agree that a Yankee Candle is a must for scented candles. I smelt the Spiced Orange Jar Candle in Clintons at the weekend and oh it was divine, the only thing that stopped me was they only had the small jar and I love the big jars more.

6. What do you love the most about autumn?

So I will briefly mention just a few things but for more check out my Why I love Autumn post. I love the chunky Knitwear, having an excuse for early film nights, drinking lots of hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows and getting ready for halloween and firework night.

7. Favourite make up look?

This season we can go darker without getting strange looks. Ill be wearing my red lips a lot more than my pinks. I swear by my Rimmel Kate moss Lasting Finish lipstick. Also a darker smokey eye makeup than the neutral or pink smokey eyes.

I also really like Sleek Makeup i-divine Eyeshadow Palette in Oh So Special because you have the combination of the light neutral beiges and pinks with the darker browns, blues and plums. This will be a purchase in the next week or so, I will do swatches of the colours so you can see.

8. What are you looking forward to the most in autumn?

As much as I love summer so i can get my legs out in shorts, wear cute vests and be able to sit outside at 8pm in the evening not shivering, I do like getting snug inside wearing a chunky knit and watching a film not thinking its a waste of the evening as its only dark and cold outside.

However I dislike wearing a coat out shopping and then when your in a shop your body temperature is slowing rising to an uncomfortable heat because shops feel it necessary to create a heat wave inside and you just need to get back outside before you faint. I guess it saves money but its also annoying if you generally want to buy something.

I hope you've all enjoyed reading the tag, I look forward to reading:
