The Autumn Tag

-


I have grown to love Autumn more as the years go on, and I must admit, I think it is now my favourite by a margin (Except for the wind). The colours, the wrapping up, the candle scents and the anticipation for Halloween and Christmas.

I know that we are almost a month into Autumn but the whether is shocking and I feel really autumnal today so I wanted to take part in the Autumn Tag.

1. What signifies the start of Autumn for you?
 
The colour changes in the leaves, the colder weather and the floor being covered in fallen leaves, we love crunching through them when going on Autumn walks.

2. What is your favourite Autumn scent?

My favourite scent of Autumn has to be Pumpkin spice, we had a candle last year which was pumpkin spice and chestnut which smelt so amazing. I just like all the spices mixed together too.

3. What is your favourite Autumn colour?

This has to be the deep red that some of the leaves go, it is such a warm colour and makes it somehow feel warmer than it actually is, if that makes sense.

4. What is your favourite Autumn drink?

My favourite drink kind of goes with a Christmas drink too and that is a Sticky Toffee Latte, they are so sweet and tasty but really do warm you up too. I can't wait for Costa to bring there winter menu out soon.

5. What TV show, new or old, are you looking forward to this Autumn?

I am quite looking forward to watching a series called Gunpowder with Kit Harington in. It is based on the story of Guy Fawkes and Bonfire night. We are also looking forward to a new series of Alaskan Bush People, for some strange reason we seem to gravitate towards documentaries quite a bit.

6. What is your favourite Autumn fashion trend?

I am all for a chunky knit in any colour, they are so cosy and comfy. I have only recently joined the chunky knit band wagon and I want more haha. I also love wearing my boots in Autumn, they are just above the ankle and are so comfy to wear.

7. What is your favourite frugal Autumn activity?

This year we have made some really cool looking leaf bunting from some dried fallen leaves, my daughter decorated them with paint, glitter and sequins and I have then thread them onto some thread and hung them across the front of our TV unit. We also love to decorate pine cones with glitter too.

8. What is your favourite makeup look come Autumnal weather? 

 I like a deeper coloured blusher during the colder months and also I usually make my eye make up a little darker. It adds some nice warm tones to the skin without making you look flushed.

 I have really enjoyed talking about Autumn, if you wish to take part, I tag you all. Feel free to use these questions.

    I love the deep red colour that the leaves change too. That for me is the start of Autumn.

    Fall is my absolute favorite time of the year. It's as if we all have permission to nest now. To curl up within our four walls with a good book and a broken-in sofa to ease back into warmth + real + home. x

Creating My Dream Blogging Space

-
Image
I have been blogging for two years now and sadly do not have the room to have a separate blogging space bit still imagine what my space would look like, and often get office envy reading other bloggers posts. I love the idea of just being able to sit down at a desk and write with no distractions around me, like my own little hide away in a loft, with me, my camera, my computer and a cup of tea. I would love to have fresh light colours such as a cream or white for the desk as in my opinion it looks a lot cleaner and can brighten the space up. It would also have to have plenty of storage for chargers, note books and the hundreds of pens, pencils and crayons I have acquired since having Lil's.  The desk pictured below is one that I would certainly consider, this is from  Argos  and looks quite modern with a good amount of storage too. I also love the natural look of the desk, its not too modern and seems very practical, which I think it important. I've imag

Being a carer for my parents

-

Both my parents have mobility issues and are bithnow in wheelchairs. Since I can remember my Mum has been in a wheelchair due to have a very worn hip joint which she was born with.  When I was in year 9 my Dad's back started to hurt and progressivly got worse to the point where he struggled to get out of bed. I am now classed as a carer to my mum which is important for me, my mum is very stubborn and sometime I have to have a little nag to get her to do things. I don't see my parents in any other way than just my parents, if that makes sense. My Mum is an amazing person who makss me proud every day. Due her lack of mobility she also has other health problems which she can control with tablets and lifestyle changes.  My Dad is still constantly on the go with his veterans and the local carnival which he does every year using his mobility scooter as his base for his structure. He does feel it after he compeltes things but I think it gives him motivation to

BHP Show 2016 • Lydden Hill

The last time I visited the BHP show I was pregnant with Lil's and it was only a one day event. This year I got to take my baby back to see it for herself and enjoy two days there instead, including a COLD night of camping.  The BHP show is (I believe) a yearly event which takes place at Lydden Hill Race Circuit. This is about 1 hour and a half drive from our house so not too far for us to go, Lilly was as good as gold travelling both there and back, but then again she slept the whole way back.  The show wasn't as good as back in 2012 due to the lack of demo's but the Drift Allstars team were amazing and made Lilly scream with joy after a silly 5 minutes of being scared.  On the Sunday we took a look around the pits, that's a big reason why we like Lydden hill is because of the open pits. There were so many nice cars both drift cars and track day cars too. Lilly was very excited especially aboutt the purple one pictured below.  There was a giant
