Smith and Kennedy halloween wax melt edition | review

What better time to try out wax melts than Halloween. Smith and Kennedy launched their halloween range, and I was most excited about it. I have found that a lot of places don't offer the best Halloween wax melts and most only seem to offer the classic pumpkin spiced latte range. I love it, but sometimes you want a bit more than the OG.  I was most excited when I received this box of goodies, as we all know wax melts hold a very special place in my heart and I honestly cant find it in me to stop buying them, my house smells of all kinds of lovely. I once again found Smith and Kennedy on Instagram and the customer service was spot on. I had a little trouble with my order and whoever I spoke to was just so lovely and reassured me everything was going to be okay and that I wouldn't miss out.

Things to consider when buying a home

I won't lie to you, I'm no expert at moving homes but we done our fair share of viewings when it came to finding the perfect home for us. If you're paying said amount for a family home, you want to tick all of the boxes so that there are no complications when you do move in. I know from our own experiences there were a lot of homes that were so pretty from the pictures, but didn't live up to our expectations which a lot of the time we were gutted about. We found that a lot of the houses either had a beautiful garden but so small inside, or huge inside but a really small garden!

Pumpkin picking 2020

I have been wanting to go Pumpkin picking for so long, and yesterday I finally got the chance to do so. I was praying to the autumnal gods that it didn't rain because we were originally booked in for last week but the rain meant that we couldn't go, I was gutted but we were so lucky with the weather yesterday thankfully. I thought id show a few photos from our day, we had the best fun and honestly I was in autumnal heaven today, I loved it and we got so many pumpkins!

sometimes you don't get over it | baby loss awareness month

I never in a million years thought I'd be the one to talk about miscarriages. To me, it was something I hear so many people go through and I never really understood what it felt like to lose a baby until I went through it myself. You hear so many women, even men speaking about the reality when it comes to any form of baby loss and it honestly makes me so proud of each and everyone; why should we feel like we gave to hide away and never speak of it? To us it changed our lives, we need to speak about it more.

Things you need to watch on Netlifx right now

There's no doubt about it that I've been watching a lot of Netflix at the moment, mainly because I was sick of watching the same things all of the time, and its actually been quite fun if I'm honest. I've been watching things I wouldn't usually reach for, but it's been good to try something new and a lot of them I have actually enjoyed watching! I do these posts quite a lot on my blog, purely because I love sharing things I'm loving at the moment!

The fall 

• I thought I'd share this one as everyone is going crazy for it at the moment. when I first started watching this, I found it quite hard to get into but I think when I got to around episode 3 I was hooked. I love the storyline and the plot, and it's actually a very sad series. I wouldn't watch this if you're not into serial killers, it can be quite a lot to take in at times, but overall it's a really good series and I thank my auntie for getting me into it, I kind of want to watch it again!!

Ratched

• This is such a good one. I love Sarah Paulson in American horror story and she's even better in Ratched. If you're into your weird and mental asylum kind of series, then you'll love this. I personally thought it was going to be a bit more spookier for some reason, but it was equally as good and I'm really hoping they bring out a second series. 

Misfits

• I had never heard of Misfits beforehand, but Owen and I decided to start watching randomly and we ended up becoming obsessed with the show. I did find the beginning a little boring and quite hard to get into, but as the series went on I found myself in fits of laughter over certain episodes. It has typical British banter included so if you're not really into things like that then this will be a no, but I personally love it, it's so good.

A nice girl like you

• If you don't know who Lucy Hale is, then who the hell are you?! I think she's such a good actress, she's so funny in this film and I didn't quite expect the storyline to be what it was, but I ended up loving it completely. It's honestly such a funny film, I was in stitches pretty much the whole way through; it's the perfect girls night film in my opinion.

Emily in Paris

• If you're anything like me then you're a huge lover of Lily Collins. I first fell in love with her when I watched love, Rosie. She's such a brilliant actress and she features in this series, in fact she's the main character. It's lovely if you're into your rom-com, and also if you love Paris. It's about Emily who gets a job in Paris in a marketise firm and she begins her new life in Paris. She faces so many different tasks, meets new people, gains friends and loses loved ones. I highly recommend it, I sat and watched the whole series in one day!

I didn't want to include any more films or series as I'd like to do this more often, maybe monthly but honestly I have no idea whether I'll watch that much Netflix or not to be honest with you. Let me know any films or series you've been watching recently, I'd love to see some suggestions!

my favourite Halloween films of all time

It's that time of year again where the air getting cooler and the Pumpkin spiced lattes are upon us. Although Im a Christmas girl at heart, I do love a bit of Halloween and making the most of all the scary films there are. One of the main things I enjoy is watching scary films, there are just so many good ones out there however I do love the cringe-scary ones too, they can be quite funny! I thought I'd share a few of my favourite films I enjoy watching around Halloween time, and maybe you guys might like to try some!
