Autumn/Winter Wish List


Hey Guys!
I haven't posted in ages! I'm so sorry! This always happens but I promise from now on I will try and post as regularly as possible.
Autumn and winter are my favourite seasons and I love the fashion in these months. Something about dressing up cosy in boots and jumpers makes my heart skip a beat.
I love everything about autumn and winter so here is a short wish list for the colder months.

Super Simple Summer Snack

Hey Guys!

This healthy snack is the quickest and easiest thing ever! 
It's absolutely delicious and takes 5 minutes to prepare.


Start by gathering lots of different fruits and vegetables.
Wash and cut them all however you like.
Put them on a plate.
Cut up cheddar chunks (to eat with your grapes).
Grab some sauces/spreads like salted caramel sauce or peanut butter to eat with your apples etc.
Have an ice cold glass of water on the side too to keep you hydrated.

You can change or add anything to suit you!
It's really flexible but also really filling and super healthy so instead of grabbing those crisps or chocolate, just grab some fruit and make something a lot nicer and more nutritional!

What are your favourite simple, healthy snacks.

ENJOY!

See you later!

Gifts I got my Parents

Hey guys, how are you all?
I was originally going to do a full 'presents I got others' post but I got most people little things so I decided I'll do a small one just on what I got my parents.

Mum
From my mum I went pretty safe and got the thing she's been hinting at for a long time.
I didn't get her a birthday present and her birthday was in November so I said I'll spend the money I would have on her birthday for her christmas present instead so she'll get one better present rather than 2 smaller gifts.

I got her  LOVERDOSE Tattoo by DIESEL.
I got the biggest bottle which was 75ml and it cost £48.99 from Boots.



Dad
My dad is always hard to buy for so I just stuck to cologne once again.

I saw this gift set which is the James Bond 007 and I think I got the Quantum one which is the one pictured below. The gift set includes a 30ml Cologne and 50ml Shower Gel and it cost £19.00 from Boots.

The Christmas Tag

As I'm writing this, it is 2:19am in England on the 23rd December 2013. This technically means that there are only 2 days left until christmas.
Since it's 2 in the morning, my brain isn't functioning enough to write a proper post so I am going to do a well suited Christmas tag created by PointlessBlog aka Alfie Deyes who is by far one of my favourite youtubers. No one tagged me but whatever.



1). Use one noise to describe how excited you are for christmas
SQUEEAAAKKK

2). Whats the best present you've ever been given and why?
Probably my laptop which was a late christmas present last year because on laptops you can go on the internet and the internet has blogs and youtube and tumblr and twitter. And gifs...

3). Whats the worst present you've ever been given and why?
Probably a pen. Yes, I got given a pen. To be fair the pen came with a key ring but then again the key ring was an ugly lifeguard thing and the pen only lasted about a day...

4). Sing a line from your favourite christmas song
.
"I should be playing in the winter snow but imma be under the mistletoe" -Mistletoe, Justin Bieber

5). Whats your favourite Christmas film?
Probably either elf or home alone.

6). Show how good you are at wrapping a present.
How? Okay this tag was not made for blogs.

7). If you could rename one of father christmas' reindeer, what would you name it?
Inka because that's my name and my best friends name put together. Yes we're shipped.

8). Whats your favourite thing about christmas?
The food, lights, music, time off school and spending time with family. I know that's not one thing but shh i like christmas.

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.

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.
