My Favourite Things About Autumn

Autumn is officially here and I have to say, I couldn't be more pleased! Autumn is my favourite time of year, and here's a few reasons why...

Cosy nights in
When it's cold and dark outside, there is nothing I love more than snuggling up on the couch with a blanket, my boyfriend and my cat - it's so cosy! I would much rather be inside in the evenings at this time of year than outside in the freezing cold. I love lighting some scented candles and spending my evenings catching up and re-watching some of my favourite tv series and getting lost in the books that have been on my reading list for months.

Fashion
This is probably my favourite thing about this time of year. I have always preferred Autumn/Winter style over Spring and Summer, I just think it's easier to look more stylish and chic wearing lots of layers! I always spend so much money on updating my wardrobe as soon as it starts to get colder; I'm currently obsessed with A-line skirts, chunky grey knits, roll neck jumpers and anything suede. I also recently purchased my A/W coat which I can't wait to blog about,so keep your eyes peeled for an upcoming post on that.

Bold lips and nails
Just like fashion, I much prefer darker lip colours and nail polishes that complement the season. MAC Rebel is my favourite lip shade to wear as it creates such a dramatic look. I also love to wear my most loved Essie nail polishes, Bahama Mama and Fifth Avenue, at this time of year too. 

Copious amounts of hot chocolate
Hot chocolate is my favourite drink in Autumn, I love grabbing one for the train home after a long day of shopping in town, and experimenting with different flavours at home. Last year I made coconut, Nutella and orange which were all delicious!

Long walks
During the daytime, I try to spend as much time outside as I can as I just love going for long walks, wether it be in the park or just wandering up and down all the lovely tree lined streets with a hot drink in hand. I think most cities in Europe are their most beautiful in Autumn and Glasgow is no exception. There's nothing prettier than all the bright orange and yellow leaves scattered all over the ground!

Falling for Mustard and Suede

Mustard is a colour that I've never had much of in my wardrobe (I think this might be my first piece actually) but it's the perfect colour for Autumn, so when I spotted this Ribbed Roll Neck Top from Urban Outfitters I snapped it up! It's so comfortable and effortlessly stylish, I couldn't quite believe it only cost £19 as clothes from Urban Outfitters can be more on the pricey side.

I wore this outfit last week on  a day trip to Edinburgh. I teamed it with my trusty Zara bag, Dr Martens and new black suede skirt. I think this might be my favourite skirt of all time, which is a pretty big statement to make! The shape and fit are just so flattering and it goes perfectly with so many other tops and shoes in my wardrobe. 

What do you think of this outfit?
