Halloween is literally the reason I get excited for Autumn coming. It is my favourite seasonal holiday of all time, I love all the darkness and creepiness that comes along with it. I love getting to dress up for Halloween with amazing costumes and binge on horror films! I am literally counting the days down to celebrate the creepiest day of the year!

Hot chocolate is such a dreamy indulgence and I can’t wait for it to be acceptable to spend all my money every week on it. The perfect combination of marshmallows, whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles! What could be more perfect?! It’s even better when you can whip up a healthier version especially with flavours such as salted caramel and sweet popcorn!

Leggings and boots Autumn fashion is always just so comfy practical! It means I can embrace more ‘edgier & rockier’ styles like skinny jeans, leggings and boots! All the black and all the layers! My favourite types of outfits!

Bonfire night I think that it’s just so magical. I love seeing the sky light up all pretty and being with good company, cosying up around a big bonfire with a dreamy hot chocolate and being wrapped up all cosy, it’s the perfect autumn evening!

My birthday Need I say anymore?! My birthday lands 2 days after Halloween (November 2^nd) and I love celebrating with my friends and family. It normally means a lot of good company, cake and yummy food! However I am not looking forward to turning 25 this year…

Darker evenings I am not a summer baby, I hate the long days and all the light waking me up (miserable aren’t I?!). I much prefer the dark mornings and evenings,  so when Autumn starts rolling in and days slowly get shorter, this is my ideal time!

Snuggles and cuddles What is better than spending evenings in bed snuggling away with lots of blankets and pillows?! Now that summer is coming to an end, its more acceptable to not be making plans every night down the pub with friends and means I can stay indoors with films and cuddles!

Soup is such a great comfort food, its so filling and just warms you right up without being too bad on the calories! I tend to avoid soup during the summer as I get too hot but now its cooler I can have all the soup I want with some fresh bread.. yum! My favourite is a coconut chicken one from Waitrose, so delicious!

American TV shows All good shows start back up again during September and I cannot wait! I am keeping an eye out for Scream Queens, Gotham, American Horror Story and the remake of the Rocky Horror show coming to my screens!

Candles I know people have candles all year round, but there is something magical to me about dark evenings and having lots of gorgeous smelling candles around the room, especially ones with autumnal scents! Add some gorgeous twinkling fairy lights and I feel right at home!
