My Autumn and Winter Essentials

I have been waiting to do this blog post for a long time now as this includes so many of my favourite things! Plus, Autumn and Winter are my favourite seasons. I hope you like these essentials as much as I do!  

Make-up:

These are my two faves for Autumn and Winter, no one likes a pale face during Autumn, well I don't anyway (I LOOK LIKE A GHOST!). This Garnier Self-tanning dry face mist is amazing for all those ghosts out there, There's nothing like a nice bronzed glow. This lipstick is my also a great essential as it's a plum/dark berry tone which looks great with Winter clothes (monochome..grey..and more monochrome!) 
Garnier Self-tanning dry face mist - £7.99 (ish haha)
Mac Lipstick in Craving - £15.50

Jumpers:


 I loveeeeee jumpers! I have so many but I would probably bore you if I put all of them in this blog post. So these are a few of my favourites which I wear out and about and also inside if i'm a little chilly! I really apologize for the (bra) in the corner.. BLOGGER PROBLEMS

Jumper 1 - Garret Scott (mens)
Jumper 2 - Topshop
Jumper 3 - Jack Wills
Jumper 4 - River Island

Joggers/Comfies:


 Got to add a onesie in there!!
 I LIVE in these joggers! They're so comfy and a must-have for Autumn and Winter. Also, Christmas joggers are amazing this year! GUILTY

1 - Primark
2 - Asda
3 - New Look
4 - ASOS
Onesie - I'm not 100% sure, but it may have been from boohoo.com!

Slippers/Socks:

 I have just realised that all but 1 of these socks are a type of animal.. The other pair are Christmas related.. SHOCK HORROR! I am always wearing socks as my feet are always cold! (you know what they say, people who have cold feet, have warm hearts! Or is it hands?)...and I have so so many but I do feel like I need to invest in some more.. oops. 

Slippers - Primark
Frog Socks - New Look ( I actually can't stand frogs, they creep me out but these socks just make them cuter and less creepy.. probably because they aren't real!)



 DVD's/TV:

Because it's nearly Christmas, it's only fair to have aaaall of the Christmas films out! My favourites are Elf, Nativity 1 & 2, Four Christmas, The Grinch and also Made in Chelsea Christmas Specials! (Only on certain DVD's such as series 6) I have been watching these films for about 2 months already! I am so so excited.. I also love TV programmes around Autumn/Winter because you get the likes of I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here, X Factor, Christmassy Programmes and Britians Got Talent which starts in the late Winter. If you don't live in England, you're missing out! I am such a couch potato..

Other essentials and what I am looking forward to..

lighting as many candles as possible!
hot chocolates
Christmas decorations
listening to Christmas songs
putting the heating on, woo!
Christmas blog posts
rainy, lazy days in
scarves, hats, boots
an excuse to buy more coats
more baths in the evening (which is excuse to buy more bath bombs!)
comfort food
conkers (yes, I do use these in my room to get rid of spiders!)
present buying
present wrapping
decorating the tree
and finally.. CHRISTMAS itself!

I hope you have enjoyed this blog post and I bet you are all sat in your onesie or your comfy joggers reading this with either comfort food or a nice hot drink! Hope you're all excited about Christmas as much as I am hehe. Thank you for reading!

My November Haul


So, I thought it was time for another haul blog post! I have had some people say to me 'what's a haul?', but honestly.. I don't even know, I just know that it's where you show what you have recently bought.. (I know this from Youtubers.. who else!). This is mostly alot of Autumn/Winter related bits and bobs as it's getting very very chilly.. actually, no! IT'S BLOODY FREEZING! Haha. Hope you enjoy this blog post!

White, grey, and a tad blue

 I only bought the jumper and the headbandy-thing 2 days ago and I can't get enough of them! This headband keeps my head/ears so warm and cosy and for £3.99, it's amazing. I love that this jumper is a roll neck and that it has slits at the side as I read in my LOOK magazine that these type of jumpers are a must-have for Autumn! I also love these three colours together too.
Headband - H&M - £3.99
Jumper - Zara - £34.99


 A little fur hurt nobody

 I have wanted this scarf/collar since it's been in the shops! And I finally got it.. but then I also saw the gloves and had to get those too.. uh oh! They're both quite pricey but totally worth it. This top is actually my mums but I persuaded her to share it with me hehe! This is also great for winter too as it has a roll-neck.
Top - River Island - £16
Gloves - River Island- £25
Scarf/Collar - River Island - £25 (you may have guessed I quite like River Island at the minute!)


A cosy 'daamn' night

 This is definitely my new favourite pj top! I love that it's oversized and baggy. 
Top - H&M - £7.99


 Shoes and more shoesies!

 Who doesn't love boots in Autumn and Winter!? I had been looking everywhere  for some and I finally found these which are gorgeous, They are so comfy and go with anything. I also love these slipper looking shoes! I think they're quite quirky and bold (hense the lion head! why not eh?).
Boots - ASOS - £55
Shoes - Topshop - £25


 Bits and bobs

I thought this earring stand was so so cute and really handy if you have earrings lying around. It just keeps them tidier and makes them stand out. I also have recently brought this Company High-Street Edit Magazine which only comes out once every season (I think!) but this is the last ever Company Magazine (sad face) so if you're into fashion and even more fashion, I recommend you get your hands on this now! Its full of trends, party season items and much more.
Earring stand - LisaAngel.com (£6)
Company Magazine - £4.50


And that is my November Haul! I hope you have enjoyed reading this blog post and I also hope you like some of the items that I have purchased. I apologize if this makes you want to go shopping and spend your money, oops! (Oh well, that's what us girls are made to do!). Please give this a share on Facebook/Twitter if you have liked it! You can also follow me on Twitter/Instagram if you wish too! (@1bethsheil)
Love you all,
