My Fall Favorites 2014

From music to books and more, this blog post is about my favorite things for Fall. I will be talking about my favorite music to listen, books to read and much more. Let's get started!


Music

My Favorite Song: this fall my favorite song is Bang Bang by Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj! This song has a good beat and is so energetic.

My Favorite Album: For my favorite album, this fall i'm going back to last year when One Direction released their album Midnight Memories. I love that there was more of a pop-rock sound in the album, and also that there are beautiful ballads. 

My Favorite EP (single): This fall (and mostly this summer), my favorite EP/ single was Happy Little Pill by Troye Sivan. Troye is an Australian YouTuber who has an amazing talent.

PC Roasted Garlic Hummus

Hummus has become one of my favorite snack foods over the last few years. It is a healthy and great tasting dip or spread. I was surprised to have loved it on the first try. I use it to dip veggies and they better than salsa for tortilla chips.

Cosmetics

Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion

This lotion makes my skin feel smooth. Usually if I use a moisturizer, it makes my skin oily and break out. This one doesn't do that. You can find it at Sears or at Hudson's Bay.

Color Whisper tinted Lipstick

I love this lipstick because it's like part lipstick part lip balm. I use the "Rose of Attraction" it is a pink tone that is subtle when applied to my lips. 

LashBlast Volume Waterproof Mascara by Covergirl

I think that every woman has to have a good waterproof mascara in their toolbox. I think that it such value in ways that it works. Whether you are crying or underwater, your mascara will not run.
