November Favourites!

 BEAUTY

Back at the very beginning of the month, I made it my mission to hunt down a copy of Glamour magazine because they had a choice of four Clinique freebies inside. Never one to say no to red lipstick, Cherry Pop was the one I went for and it was love at first swatch. I blogged my first impressions of it and now that I've been using it for the whole month I can safely say that it's easily one of my favourite lipstick formulas ever! Very comfortable and easy to wear, sometimes I even forget I'm wearing it. Luckily though it has fantastic staying power so I don't have to worry!

As well as that, I've also been using my new stuff from Zoella Beauty (review) pretty much everyday. Her brand idea is centred around creating joyous pamper time and as I've built up a decent sized collection, I definitely agree that her products do just that. If I was to pick my absolute favourite from the bunch it would be the hand cream - I've been genuinely wowed at how much of a difference using it makes!

And lastly in my beauty favourites this month is a body wash from Cussons Imperial Leather. Their pink peony & raspberry shower gel has been making me smell like a dream! The scent doesn't really linger once you're out of the shower but it's worth it while it lasts. The mix of floral & fruity goodness has been a lovely addition to my ten minute shower routine and as you can keep in the photo above, I've still got about a third of the bottle left. I would love a perfume in this scent!




I feel like as we move from Autumn into Winter I'm starting to be a lot more comfortable in my style choices - I much prefer this time of year to the Summer when it comes to clothes! I've been getting into roll neck jumpers a LOT and I think if I don't restrain myself I could end up with having one in every colour. They're just so cosy!

Then to go with the majority of my outfits lately I've been wearing my new ankle boots which I treated myself to from New Look. In the past I've been a bit of a shoe-aholic but I want to change that and create a 'capsule shoe wardrobe', if you get what I mean. Ideally I'd like to own about 5 decent quality pairs because if nothing else, I'll be able to cut down on the amount of space my shoes currently take up!

I included those boots in this outfit post alongside another favourite, my Weird Ape watch. It's such a classic design and it's nice to have something on my wrist for once because as I said in that outfit post, my wrists are too small for most bracelets!



Lastly I have three miscellaneous favourite I want to share with you!

The first is a video editing programme. I'd been looking for something similar to Final Cut Pro but available for Windows and Katy recommended Sony Vegas Pro. I downloaded the trial version and couldn't be more grateful to Katy because it's amazing! I'm definitely keen to get the full version as soon as I can.

Also this month I bit the bullet and got myself a new domain! It's just a tiny change but I love being .co.uk - why didn't I do it sooner?

And last but not least, one of my favourite TV shows is back on! This series of I'm A Celebrity has been so entertaining so far, it's one of those shows you can watch and actually laugh out loud at. I'm hoping either Vicky or George stay in til the end and win it, they're my favourite ones in there!

So those were all of my November Favourites. Get involved in the comments below and let me know what yours are!

What have you been loving this month?
