Autumn/Fall

As I sat watching 'The Wedding Planner' I was suddenly hit by something! Autumn/Fall, which ever you want to call it! All Spring and Summer, I have been wondering around my flat with neither sock or shoes on. For the first time since last Winter, I felt my feet feel ice cold! So cold in fact it caused me to put on my 'Snuggie' and place my laptop on my feet to warm them up slightly!

This got me to thinking and I suddenly got all excited about about the idea that Autumn/Fall is here! The smell of cinnamon and pumpkin with the sweet taste of caramel apples just made my mouth water. 

Winter has always been my favorite season since Christmas is my favorite holiday. However, for some reason, I have just got extremely excited for Autumn. The first thing I thought I should so to start off the seasons was to buy a candle! I have looked high and low for the type of candle I would want and it seem that ideally, I would love for there to be a Bath and Body Works in the UK!

I think that because I am not too sure about which ones I will like from Yankee Candle, I think I am going to buy some tarts to try some out. Next payday, I will certainly be denting my bank account balance to try a mixture of scents!

AHHH far too excited!

Purple Hair


To anyone that knows me, I love colour and I tend to express myself through alternative ways.
It is a strong opinion of mine that my hair colour represents me in a big way, just like I tend to be blonde in Summer and darker colours in Winter,  but I also like to experiment! 
I have been dying my hair since I was 13 which is when I only went one shade of brown darker to sort of test the waters. Unfortunately, no one noticed so I decided that I would go all out and go for black (I was in a bit of an 'alternative' style phase). Unfortunately I went  to a Catholic school, and it was fair to say they didn't like it and I got put in isolation for a week or two!

Since then I have been pretty much every colour! I put together a collage of hair colours that I have (including my natural ones) and decided to share them. There have been much more of colours but these are the ones that I have pictures of.


The ones that I like best are the purple ones. I have always seen purple as 'my colour' as it seems to suit my skin colour well! 

When I look back on my hair, I noticed a pattern:

Brunette hair = More serious times that might have been sad
Blonde = The times I created memories
and
Any un-natural colours = The fun times and being happy!

Since I have had a tough few weeks (coincidentally brunette again), I though I should have a change. I decided I would go for the bright pink/purple on the bottom row but maybe a bit darker.
 As soon as I could, I went out for a few things I would need to get my hair the way I want.


I love the results!
