November Favorites

Hi everyone! Welcome to my first ever favorites post. I love reading monthly favorites posts and watching monthly favorite videos on YouTube, so I thought I'd give it a go! Here are some of my favs from November.

One Direction Made In The A.M.

I've been listening to this album non stop since it came out. I'm actually listing to it right now as I'm typing this blog post.

Covergirl Lipstick in 330 "ravish raspberry"

This is a prefect berry color for autumn and could defiantly be used in the winter too. I normally don't like Covergirl lipsticks but I love this one.

Barnwick Cinnamon Stick Candle

Lately, I have become obsessed with candles. I think it's because the days are getting darker sooner and the weather is cooler and lets face it candles just make it cozy. I've been spending a lot of time snuggled up under a blanket with a candle burning while watching too much Netflix. Now my favorite thing about this candle is that the wick is wood so it sounds like wood crackling on a fireplace. It smell good too! :)

Bath and Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Candle

Now this is one of my all time favorite candle scents. Especially around Thanksgiving. I still have a little left so I'll be burning it sparingly.

What were some of your favorites in November. Let me know in the comments. :)

Favorite Halloween Movies

Right when it hit October 1st I was ready to start watching Halloween movies. I thought I'd make a blog post letting you guys know what I plan on watching throughout this month. I'm not really big on really scary movies but I like the movies that have a Halloween theme. So lets get started!

1. Harry Potter series


Now I do watch these movies all year round. Harry Potter movies are my favorite, but there is something about watching them around October. It just makes Hogwarts that little bit more scary.

2. Halloweentown series

Been one of my favorites since I was a kid.

3. Hocus Pocus

4. Edward Scissorhands

5. Twitches and Twitches Too

6. It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

7. The Nightmare Before Christmas

8. Haunted Mansion

This is like the only scary movie that I can watch.

Pineapple-Mango Smoothie

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ingredients:

1 cup diced mango
1 cup diced pineapple
1 cup coconut juice or water

Combine all ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth and pour into a glass. I like to pop my smoothie in the freezer for a few minutes before I drink it.

Style Icon: Marilyn Monroe

 

 

 

Marilyn Monroe is someone I have been fascinated with since I was a little girl, but never knew much about her other than she was beautiful. As I got older I started discovering her movies and now she is one of my favorite actresses of all time. One of my favorite movies of hers is "How to Marry a Millionaire" with Lauren Bacall and Betty Grable. Marilyn wasn't only a Hollywood icon, but also a fashion icon. She was kind of ahead of her time. She was huge during the 50's where the main fashion trend was poodle skirts and Peter Pan collars and she was wearing elegant gowns, playsuits and skirt suits. She was the is the definition of Hollywood glam. To me though her personality and charisma is what makes her so beautiful. Also, her smile is just dazzling. So, here's a look at some of my favorite looks of Marilyn.




“To all the girls that think you’re fat because you’re not a size zero, you’re the beautiful one, its society who’s ugly.” – Marilyn Monroe
