October Favourites

Saturday 28 October 2017


A favourites post... I know, I know. But looking back on my previous posts and I noticed I haven't shared my favourites since the month of February! Other than all things autumn, (which of course you can 100% tell that I have been loving) here are things I have been loving, in case you are wondering...

Chris Brown's new album - Heartbreak on a Full Moon
Well, technically this favourite is cheating a little bit as the full album is released on the 31st of this month, but I just know that I am going to absolutely love it. Chris Brown has been one of my favourite artists for as long as I can remember and his new releases just get better, and better. 
I was lucky enough to see him in Dublin last year, whilst he was doing his 'One Hell of a Nite' tour. It was incredible. Something I was going to make my mission to do at some point, and it was just so much better than I could have ever imagined. I'm sure some of you can relate to seeing an artist live, who you have really wanted to see for the longest time  - it exceeds expectations. This album will for sure be played on repeat as of the 31st (sorry flatmates). 

Riverdale
Riverdale, amongst other TV favourites of mine, has returned to our screens this October. Only being a few episodes in, I'm so intrigued to see how the rest of the series plays out. If you've also been watching it, I'd love to know what you think is going to happen!


Laura Geller Baked Blush in Bora Bora 
This blush has been my new obsession. Within the colder months of the year, I tend to use darker eyeshadows on my eyes, meaning that I don't like to go in too much or heavy with the blusher, but I still want to add a little something onto my cheeks. This blush is exactly that. It gives the cheeks a gorgeous pink flush, without it being like 'whoa she's wearing a lot of blush'. It's super rosy looking without looking too much. I do have some other Laura Geller Baked Blushes, but this one stands out from the rest. 

Colin the Caterpillar Cakes
Another favourite this month has been the mini chocolate caterpillars from Marks and Spencer. Essentially, they are little mini rolls with a caterpillar face, like the big caterpillar birthday cakes that you can get from the majority of supermarkets. This month hasn't been the best and I picked these up in the hope to cheer me up a little. Little did I know, M&S also had Halloween Colin's - count Colin. Doesn't get much better than that.  

What have you been loving in the month of October?

    1. I finished Stranger Things 2 today (I know what you're thinking - I couldn't help myself haha!), I preferred it so much more to the first series. The story line was just so much better. Maybe start Riverdale once you have watched Stranger Things!x

  17. Ahhh I've been watching Riverdale as well lately! I'm completely hooked. I'm not always into high school drama TV shows, and I do find it a tad dramatic sometimes, but it's really intriguing! Also I'm dying to try those chocolate caterpillars.
    You have a lovely blog! I'd love if we can follow each other on Bloglovin maybe? Do let me know <3 happy weekend!
