Autumn 2014 Wishlist

New Look Leopard Print Shoes// Jo Malone English Pear & Freesia Perfume// ASOS Beaded Tapestry Dress// Yankee Candle "Spiced Orange"// Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette// Olivia Burton Watch// Jouer Matte Moisture Tint

 

 

My favourite season by far is Autumn, as I love the bright jewel tones of the clothes and makeup, as well as the cosy evenings watching X Factor and Downton Abbey. Every Autumn I seem to end up with lot's on my wish list, and so I thought I would share some of the things I am lusting after this season...

 

The moment I saw these shoes, I fell in love (which happens quite often with shoes!) I feel that they would add an instant uplift to any autumnal outfit, due to the leopard print. I also like the peep toe style, which means they would be appropriate to wear now, whilst the weather is still warm-ish, and not just in the Autumn/Winter months.

Whenever I end up in Selfridges I always head to the Jo Malone counter to peruse the beautiful fragrances and candles on offer. I fell in love with the scent 'English Pear and Freesia' from the first whiff, and despite trying out many others, I will always have this one on my wish list, as I love the blend of fruity and floral scents.

 
This ASOS beaded tapestry dress just screams Autumn when you look at it, due to the rich orange, mustard and brown tones that represent the tone of Autumn leaves. I love the skater style of the dress, as well as the woven fabric, meaning it will be perfect for when the days start turning colder, and you can throw it on with a pair of tights and some black ankle boots.

Burning a candle seems so Autumnal, and this Spiced Orange Yankee Candle just smells of Halloween and Bonfire Night, with the citrus and ginger scents. I will definitely be buying one of these soon, as I can't wait to make my house smell of Autumn.

Eyeshadow palettes are my weakness when it comes to makeup, because I love the range of shimmery and matte colours all housed in one item of makeup. I am definitely a neutrals girl when it come to eyeshadow, and this just seems like the perfect product to create many different looks, for both day and night. I will definitely pop this onto my birthday wish list later in the year!

When it comes to accessories, watches are one of my favourites, as they are subtle, yet can add just an extra something to an outfit. I love the tan and gold colours of this Olivia Burton one, making it classic and understated, yet the the pretty flower design on the watch face adds a fun and girly twist.

 As we enter Autumn, I tend to start wearing more matte foundations and bases, as the glowy, dewy look seems more suited for Summer. However, I still like a hint of radiance and glow, as well as some coverage, and this product seems perfect to give that matte-dewy complexion that I am after.

So that is my Autumn wish list, I am sure many more products will end up on it, so I had best get saving!
