October Wish List

October Wish List
October is probably my most favourite month of the year mostly because it's my birthday on 2nd October (today). But also because I always think of October as the start of Autumn, which is my favourite season, nights get darker, log burners and fires going, cold crisp mornings, the lovely colours on the trees, fluffy slippers and pyjamas, hot chocolate...the list just goes on and on of what I love about Autumn. So with this in mind my October wish list is pretty much centred around the Autumnal feel in the air.

When it comes to clothes my colour palette is not the most adventurous, I tend to edge more towards nudes, neutrals, black and grey and then like to spice things up with my accessories. Anyone that knows me knows I am a coat girl, I have a whole wardrobe full of them. This Autumn I have been looking for a nice grey cocoon coat and shopping at the Trafford Centre the other day I found THE one in ZARA, which I will most definitely be treating myself to this month. Also, on the list this month are some nice comfy slippers ready those cosy nights in, black leather gloves for the chilly mornings and who can resist a good pair of fancy flats for Winter, these velvet slipper type flats are perfect for after work drinks with friends. Throughout Autumn my skin always gets a little dry and flaky in some patches on my face so I need a good hydrating moisturiser to combat this and also a nice face wash which doesn't dry out my skin, I love the Benefit skincare range and find their products really match my skin so these two beauties will be my holy grail for the next few months. And lastly my skin always looks a little lack lustre throughout Autumn, with the central heating and cold weather my skin gets very dry and dull so a good illuminating primer is a must. This Dior Glow Maximizer primer gives a lovely dewy and glowing finish to your makeup and is perfect for those days when your skin needs a little something extra.
