Sweater Weather Tag

I know, I know, I haven't posted in a while but I've got a lot coming up next week! And I also know that it's not really fall/autumn time anymore so I'm a bit late with this tag but oh well. Oh and no one tagged me so so far this post is pretty much a fail... Just bear with me.

1) Favourite candle scent?
I really love Home Sweet Home by Yankee Candle because its so festive and cosy.

2) Coffee, tea or hot chocolate?
Tea I think because I drank it almost every day even in the summer but its really relaxing and I love to drink it in bed at night because even though they have caffeine, it helps me sleep. I'm actually drinking some right now!

3) Do you switch up your makeup routine for the season?
I don't wear much make up anyway so no but I do switch up my skincare routine and tend to wear a lot more moisturiser because my skin dries out a lot more and I also are extra care over my lips by wearing lots of vaseline, babylips and eos. 

4) Favourite thanksgiving food?
We don't have thanksgiving in England so I can't really answer this one.

5) Hats or scarves?
This is a hard question but I think I'm going to have to go with scarves just because they probably suit me more and they look really cute with a nice jumper or even a autumn wintery dress. 

6) Most worn sweater?
It's this one from new look probably. I always wear it if I'm just going to town or to the supermarket or just popping out somewhere casual.

7) Must have nail polish?
I really like Prussian Blue by Models Own for fall time but I just generally like any quite dark colours for fall like deep purples or blues.

8) Football games or jumping in a pile of leaves?
It has to be jumping in a pile of leaves, without a doubt.

9) Skinny jeans or leggings?
This is probably the easiest question. Leggings all the way. I have at least 10 pairs of leggings, some the same and some different but I'm not even sure if I own a single pair of jeans. I think I have one pair of skinny jeans but it probably doesn't fit me anymore. I don't think I've worn a pair of jeans in over 2 years.

10) Boots or Uggs?
Okay so last year or the year before it would be uggs but this year I've been obsessed with boots. You know when you get one pair of shoes and then you wear no others for ages? Well that's what's happened. So yeah boots.

11) What is your #1 favourite thing about fall?
Well it's called autumn here but I definitely think its the coziness of being indoors in fluffy pyjamas and slippers and being able to layer up outside and just generally snuggling up. I also love autumn/fall fashion. All the colours and clothes are amazing this time of year.

12) Do you have a song that gets you in the fall mood or a song that you're loving at the moment?
Bonfire heart by James Blunt this year really got me in the fall mood but generally it's Your Song but the cover by Ellie Goulding that always makes me feel cosy and festive. It's so Christmassy to me too because a couple years ago when it came out, I was obsessed and I listened to it all winter and fall and christmas and just every day! 

13) What is the fall weather like where you currently live?
It's not too different to every other day here in England. Cold. Cold, rainy and windy. I really like it though to be honest at this time of year.

Bath and Body Works Review | Pocketbac

I decided to post today instead of tomorrow but I might do a mini post tomorrow.

So a while ago, I purchased 8 Bath&BodyWorks Anti Bacterial gels. I bought the mini pocket size ones which is why they are called pocketbac I guess. You can't actually buy them in England because there are no Bath&BodyWorks shops here and they don't ship to England and there is something very wrong about that. Since I couldn't actually get them from the shop, I bought them from eBay which is an website where you can buy or sell anything. If you haven't heard of eBay then I really don't understand you.

Anyway, they were a lot more expensive from eBay because people take advantage of the fact that people in England can't get them and sell them to us for more expensive. Even though they were quite pricey for the size, I don't regret buying them at all. I'm sure I will buy more when these are finished.

1. I love cake; 2. I love Cinnamon Buns; 3. Strawberry Hibiscus;
4. Sweet Pea; 5. I love S'mores; 6. I love Cookie Dough;
7. Warm Vanilla Sugar; 8. Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin.
Even though I had seen loads of american youtubers rave about these, I didn't expect them to be this good. I'm obsessed. I use almost all of them everyday but because you don't need much at a time and the smell doesn't wear off quickly, they last quite a while.

They all smell exactly like they are meant to which you don't tend to get with smelly products.

These are the only products I have tried from Bath & BodyWorks but I will definitely be trying their other ranges of everything they have. They sell everything from candles to lip products to aromatherapy to body lotions.

I would definitely recommend checking them out and trying these antibacterial gels if you haven't already. They also sell cases and holders for these mini antibacterial gels and they are seriously so cute. I haven't bought one yet but I probably will in the future.

There are some items that I just can't wait to get my hands on for Autumn/Winter. The items vary in price so there are some that are quite pricey but there are also some on the cheaper side. Most of these are either from the teens section or petite because I am a teenager and very small so I can't usually fit into adults clothing which can get really irritating but it does have its up sides.
