It's All Abour Fall

The unbearable heat wave is finally over and we are slowly transitioning into autumn, which is one of my favorite seasons. Crisp air, colorful nature, wearing layers and pumpkin spiced everything is upon us, so I prepared a post of suggestions for a few makeup, lifestyle and beauty items that are perfect for fall. Cozy up with a cup of hot tea (now that it is cold enough for it) and enjoy the post!

Red Basque barrette from Spain (around 20€ )

A perfect way to accessorize is putting a barrette on freshly created curls, add a red lipstick and be out of the door looking chic in no time.

Big tartan scarf from Primark (around 6€ )

Great way to keep warm and accessorize while it's not yet cold enough for winter coats, plus the pattern makes me so happy and the fabric is so soft!

Midi taupe handbag with rose gold hardware from Primark (around 10€ )

(find it here)

Just big enough, and the color goes with almost any outfit, this bag is a must have autumn bargain in my opinion.

Aussie Miracle Shine collection (around 6€ each)

(find it here)

For me, autumn is the time to say goodbye to messy beachy hair and greet sleek, shiny looking curls. This collection makes my hair super clean, but smooth and shiny and I am slightly obsessed with it!

Gold leaf metal headband from Primark (around 2€ )

When I want to add something extra to my hair, I love using a headband. This one is gorgeous, and the gold color works great with other autumn colors.

Black hight-heel ankle boots from H&M (around 30€ )

(find it here)

Ankle boots are by favorite things ever, and these ones are absolutely gorgeous. Perfect, because they work with every day as well as a bit dressier outfits.

Because I don't want to wear heels every day, I also have this pair of everyday flat ones.

The Dinosaur Lords by Victor Milan (around 15€ )

(find it here)

Reading only gets better when it's raining outside and you are cuddled under the blanket with an amazing book. I'm currently reading this one, and so far I love it –I mean when the book is described as a mixture between Jurassic Park and Game of Thrones, it's bound to be incredible!

Animal Kingdom -coloring book for adults by Millie Marotta (around 10€ )

For the artistic soul, this little book will be the perfect way to relax. Full of gorgeous but quite complicated designs, it is a great way to spend a free afternoon. Grab some coloring pens and bring out your inner child!

Oudwood and Tonka Wood Wick Candle by M. of W.G. (around 20€ )

There is no other way to describe it but to say, that I am in love with this candle. The scent is very deep, kind of spicy, musky and would probably make a great male perfume. Just by sitting on a shelf, it makes my room smell divine and I can't imagine what I will do when it runs out.

1. -Vintage clock given to me by my grandma

 In autumn, I like pairing my accessories with a plain black watch. I have a few, but I love this one the most, because it was given to me by my late grandma.

For special occasions, I love adding big statement earrings. I tend to gravitate towards greens or reds and these two are one of my favorite pairs for the fall.

After summer, when I was using a nautical themed makeup bag, I like to turn to metallics for autumn. This rose gold bag is big enough to hold all my everyday essentials and still fit into my handbag.

2. -Metallic rose gold makeup bag by Primark (around 4€ )

For those on a tighter budget, I found this awesome bag in Primark. I love the rose gold metallic color and the edgy design of the bag. It's a bit bigger and would be perfect as a beauty bag for a weekend trip.
