tag tuesday: sweater weather tag!
Yes my friends, it's time for another Tag Tuesday! This one I saw MissGlamorazzi do on YouTube and, like her, felt like I had to do just because of the name. It's The Neighbourhood's world, guys - we're all just living in it. Anyway, on to the tag!
1. Favorite candle scent?
The obvious choice here is Sweater Weather but I just burned my last Cinnamon Sugared Donut candle and I'm so incredibly sad about it. It smells so spicy and sweet and delicious I can smell it even when it's not burning. I don't think they came back out with it this year and I am so sad I'm out of now. Boooooooooo.
2. Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate?
Although I love all of them very much, I am a coffee person always. Black with two splendas and a little bit of skim occasionally but mostly just black. I am definitely obsessed with fun mocha drinks though like salted caramel mochas and peppermint mochas in red cups. (I'm a Starbucks girl through and through.)
3. What's the best fall memory you have?
The best fall memory I have is actually really recent but I know that it'll be my best fall memory for years to come because it was literally the best time in my life. Ever. I spent the weekend in New Jersey with Caitlin and we went apple picking and into the city for dinner and it was the best weekend!!! I don't see myself topping that basically ever.
4. Which makeup trend do you prefer: dark lips or winged eyeliner?
Up until recently I would've said winged liner, but I am fully getting into dark lips! I've always been afraid to wear them because I'm fair and it can make me look like the undead but I've been getting into them this year and fallen in love (excuse the pun - or don't). I'm really feeling Rimmel's Kate Moss lipstick in 09 as a regular everyday dark lipstick.
5. Best fragrance for fall?
It's not very fall-like, I suppose, but I'm still loving PINK fresh 'n' clean, to no one's surprise. It's the apples, I think, that make me feel fall-y. Nothing's more fall than apples, right? I know some people say pumpkin but I definitely vote apples. I go one hundred percent with layering too and I just picked up the body butter and shower gel in the same scent. AMAZING.
6. Favorite Thanksgiving food?
POTATOES. That's the only correct answer to this question. Potatoes. Boil 'em. Mash 'em. Stick 'em in a stew. :) We generally have them twice baked with cheese or scalloped also with cheese. Potatoes with cheese are the best combination.
7. What is autumn weather like where you live?
Well I live in New England so I have the most picturesque, traditional falls imaginable. There's foliage and crisp weather and all of that stuff, though it's been unseasonably warm. It just started getting cold for real and I've broken out all of my winter accessories I'm so excited!!!
8. Most worn sweater?
I bought a sweater from Forever 21 last year that I wear almost obsessively. It's oversized and grey that has the names of some cities and pink hearts and it's the most comfortable sweater I own, easily. I am also loving a sweater I bought from Old Navy that has a cute little fox wearing pink glasses. Sweaters!
9. Must-have nail polish this fall?
Right now I'm loving blue polishes for fall. I know it's not a typical "fall" color but it's kind of festive without being stereotypical. In particular I'm loving Butter London's Scouse, which is a blue glitter in a blue jelly base. It has a hint of purple to it but not enough to call it blurple, I think. It's so super festive and will be fun closer to Christmas if you want something not so red-and-green.
10. Football games or jumping in leaf piles?
I haven't done either in so long but I always love a good football game. Leaf piles are dirty!!! Also the atmosphere is just so much fun at a football game and you can get super into it and paint your nails team colors and show spirit and stuff.
11. Skinny jeans or leggings?
I am a skinny jeans girl through and through. My love for leggings is pretty recent and though it is big, it cannot overtake skinny jeans. Everything looks a lot more polished with skinny jeans, like maybe you didn't just roll out of bed and threw on whatever was most comfortable (which is totally fair to do and something I actually did today).
12. Combat boots or Uggs?
Honestly, last Christmas I asked myself this very questions. I wanted a pair of boots as a gift but I didn't know which kind I wanted more. In the end, it was combat boots. They're a little dressier - way more work appropriate - and an excuse to wear cute socks!!! I will say I'm not huge on socks, though, so that's why Uggs might win out for me.
13. Is pumpkin spice worth the hype?
ABSOLUTELY NOT. I have nothing more to say on the subject.
14. Favorite fall TV show?
This fall my favorite show has been Hart of Dixie or The Originals. CW shows have definitely made a resurgence in my life and I can't say I hate it. They're two pretty different shows but I've been marathoning Hart of Dixie nonstop for the past week so it's probably my favorite overall.
15. What song really gets you into the fall spirit?
Aside from Christmas music??? (I'm one of those people who believes it's never too early to listen to Christmas music.) "Red" by Taylor Swift is one song that's been getting me into the season.
So there it is! My Sweater Weather tag. :) I hope you enjoyed it and would love to see yours! Specifically I would love to see Caitlin's of First Glance Feeling!!! :)
