Autumn favourites: Plans, Foods, Books and Films

Hey everyone, 

How are you all?

Life has been busy the last couple of weeks but I have loved the change in weather and the new season.

I am absolutely loving autumn this year and thought on today's post I would share all of my favourite things about the season!

First up is... plans and adventures:

Autumn walks have been one of my favourite hobbies during the season so far. I have loved the fresh air, the company and the scenery. The leaves are the prettiest colours and all crunchy.

Trips to the garden centre are now easily one of my favourite things to do. Me and mum took a trip to our local garden centre last week and it was amazing. All the little plants, gifts, the food market. So lovely!

Coffee shops. This is perfect for relaxing and reading my current read. Coffee shops are even better after looking in a bookshop and then going for a sit down and festive coffee with company; mum or friend.

Food and Drink:

PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE... that's all I have to say! This is my favourite drink at this time of year because of the spices and flavour. It is ultimate cosy. But so is hot chocolate and Cadburys drinking chocolate is the one.

Tomato soup. September and October (and the rest of winter hahah) are the months for soup and bread rolls. After a cold walk in the park its so nice to cosy up and have some soup, delicious.

Roast Chicken Dinner. This is the ultimate autumn comfort food. I love chicken dinners; all the goodness. Parsnips, roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, all the gravy... yes please!

Pumpkin Spice muffins from Asda with white icing in the middle. These are new at Asda at the moment and they are delicious! These are perfect with coffee and an amazing book!

Books:

Thrillers, horrors and cosy novels have been the go to novels for me on the run up to spooky season. I have loved all thriller books that I have read recently, in particular the young adult ones. I didn't think I would ever love the thriller genre but I actually really love them so far! 

I've just ordered My Best Friend's Exorcism by Grady Hendrix and I am so excited to read it! I've heard such good things about it on Booksta!

Films and TV series: 

Hocus Pocus. Yes, yes, yes. This is the ultimate autumn film. I have watched this a bunch of times and I can't wait to sit and watch it with a hot chocolate and snacks this weekend. YAY.

Gilmore Girls. This is my all time favourite series in history. My favourite series change all the time. It was Jane the Virgin, then the Vampire Diaries which is still high up there and Gossip Girl. But for me, autumn is all about Gilmore Girls. Luke, Loreli and Rory... yesssss. Oh and Emily, she is definitely one of my favourites lol.

There you have it. My autumn favourites of the season. Food, drink, films, series and most importantly books!!

I hope you're all enjoying your autumn, what is your favourite part?

Love always,

Chloe xxx

My Travel Playlist:

I love travelling and as many of you will know I’ve recently come back from my holiday to Tenerife and I’m gutted! It was such a wonderful holiday and I loved spending time with my family. For this blog post, I thought I would piece together my favourite songs at the minute that I loved whilst travelling on flight, whilst getting ready on holiday and the ones I loved whilst chilling around the pool. The playlist has way over 100 songs so I'm going to add a list for you to browse. So there is a mixture. I am obsessed with Lewis Capaldi at the minute, he is amazing! I can't get enough of his recent album, obsessed. I'm also loving all the old summer classics that will always get me in the mood like Summer by Calvin Harris, Whistle by Flo Rida and lastly, Despacito. Not only the old classics I'm loving the new ones like High Hopes and I Don't Care. These songs are great. All in all, I think this playlist is just a big pile of all the songs I like an

Taking life at your own speed limit...

Hey everyone, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year! For my first post of 2021 I wanted to share a part of my life that I think people will also be experiencing at some point. Last week, I kind of hit a breaking point where I felt like I was behind, like I wasn't at the stage in life that I should be. I see people my age that are beyond successful on social media, buying their dream homes, having a deposit for a dream home, getting engaged or having children and I sit and think, why isn't that me? I genuinely sat and cried to my sister because I didn't know what would happen next in my life. Throughout my life I have always had stages to go through. I started off in primary school and then high school, I then had to work hard to get into college and then smash my A-levels to get into University and I think it just dawned on me that this is my last ever semester on my undergraduate course, so what happens next?  After a small breakdown, I had a deep chat about a

How I keep myself motivated with Online Uni

Hey everyone, happy Saturday! I hope you have all had a lovely January, this month has massively dragged for me. I feel like it's been six weeks instead of four but I'm so pleased with all the things I have achieved this month. However, finding motivation has been hard! Imagine this... you have classes everyday, a mountain of work to get through or assignments to complete. But not only do you have all of those, you are also coping with a global pandemic too, meaning everything has moved to online learning and you're now surrounded by the same four walls. Which in terms of coping with motivation is pretty damn hard! I know so many of my friends on Instagram are struggling to find motivation or to even cope with online learning because they're stuck in the same place, getting symptoms of cabin fever and they just want out. I feel the same but I've managed to keep a schedule and structure and it's massively helped! As you can see by the title, I thought today would
