October Favourites 2014

 

 

Hello Everyone and Happy Halloween to you all!

Am I the only one who can't believe that it's the end of October already? The year has practically flown by and before you know it, it'll be Christmas! (Not that I'm complaining- I'm far more excited than I should be!!) I only have a couple of picks this month, but since I hadn't done a 'favourites' post since July, I thought I'd better update you all on my current obsessions! Shall we get started?

 

Ah, Vitamin E Oil. I first discovered this little gem while on my trip to the Grampians last month. I needed a quick fix for my dry, damaged hair and this seemed to work wonders! I've since been using on my face after cleansing and it has made a world of difference! If you have dry skin just like me, I highly recommend picking up a bottle!

 

 
Something you all should know about me is that I am a nail polish addict and I own more polishes than I care to admit. I've tried tonnes of brands and formulations but haven't found one I absolutely love until now!
Yes, I'm jumping on the bandwagon a little late here, but this month I've been loving the formulation of OPI Nail polishes!

I painted my nails with OPI's 'Russian Navy' earlier this month and loved it! The colour was opaque and it lasted on my nails for well over a week without any chipping! I'll defiantly be picking up some new colours from this brand very soon!

 

 

For the past couple of weeks, I've been making some green smoothies in the morning. It was always something I thought people did for the health benefits rather than because it tasted good, but I really have loved drinking them! My favourite smoothie has been the 'Make-Me-Over Mojito smoothie' found in Sarah Wilsons book 'I Quit Sugar'. If drinking green smoothies and juices has been something you've considered but haven't done, I highly recommend giving it a go! It's become such a treat for me and I cant wait to find and try new recipes!

 

Here's a picture I took about a week ago showing my green smoothie and some egg and bacon cupcakes also found in Sarah's book. (They were delicious too!)

 

 

Can we please talk about Taylor's new album for just a minute?! Yes, I know '1989' only came out a few days ago but I'm already obsessed! I don't think I could tell you a favourite song from the album since they all are so good, but 'Out of the Woods' has been on repeat quite a few times this month so let's go with that. Do you have a favourite song from the album?

 

I have a favourite blogger this month and her name is Kirsty from Effortlessly Excessive. Oh wow, this girl is talented! Kirsty posts on her blog about all things Fashion & Beauty related with the occasional rant thrown in too! I pretty much always end up browsing her little corner of the internet every time I'm in need of Inspiration. I find her blog informative and interesting- I could literally spend hours reading all of her wonderful posts! So well done, Kirsty!

 

I'd love to hear your thought's on my latest obsessions. Let me know in the comments below what you've been loving this month as well as something you're looking forward to next month

That's it from me today, Have an amazing day!

Love Megan xo
