Reasons Why I'm Looking Forward to Autumn!

For those of you who don't know, it offically turned the season of Autumn sometime during this week and from the photographs above you can already see the leaves falling, turning different colours and the weather is certainly changing down here in Liverpool! I actually can't wait for the colder weather and for Autumn to come. I love absolutely about it  and I think it's because I've never been a person that loves the Summer. Here are my top reasons why I love Autumn:

• The changing colours. I love the reds, oranges and browns of the leaves. It makes everwhere look so much more beautiful and makes my walks in the park even more enjoyable!
• The colder weather. Some people might think I'm crazy for thinking this! You'll see in my next reason why I love the colder weather!
• The FASHION! See, I told you there was a good reason why I liked the colder weather! Fur coats, hats and gloves are my favourite things to wear. I think I have a slight fur obsession with coats though. Not to mention snuggly jumpers and knitted tights to keep cosy. I think my outfits looks so much better in Autumn/Winter than they ever do in the warmer months.
• The T.V gets better. Watching T.V isn't something I do much and with good reason. I can never find anything good to watch apart from The Following. So, with Autumn brings Strictly Come Dancing. I love that show and have watched it for years, ever since I can remember actually! I absolutely detest The X-factor though! 
• Darker makeup looks. You can't go wrong with a dark red lipstick or smokey eyes!
• My favourite colours to wear in Autumn are black (no surprise!) and burgundy. 
• I love the darker nights. This is probably why I don't like Summer. The light nights just don't feel right!
• Autumn only means Halloween and Bonfire night! I love special occasions!
• Christmas is closer and only a couple of months way! Christmas time is my favourite time of year so naturally I am already excited!

Are you an Autumn Lover like me and Rachel?

Strawberry Fields Outing.

One of the best things about living in Liverpool is that all of The Beatles landmarks are just places you find yourself driving past each day! It's unreal to think thousands of people travel to see these landmarks such as Strawberry Fields and John Lennon's house which is just around the corner from the fields. I've always took living in Liverpool for granted so today we decided to make a little car journey down to Strawberry Fields! I've saw so many people get their photographs taken outside the gates but me and my sister Rachel have never taken any photographs outside or even stepped out to see the gates. So why not get some today?

I love the little messages people have left all around the red gates, showing admiration and respect for their idols, The Beatles! I regret not writing my own message but there is always next time! Next time we will go and visit John Lennon's house and hopefully write a follow up post on that! I had a lovely time visiting Strawberry Fields. It's part of music history and being such a massive fan of music I thought this day was a day spent well.

Are you a fan of The Beatles? Have you visited any Beatles landmarks?

Sunday in the park.

Today was the perfect day to go to Croxteth park in Liverpool. I wasn't feeling too good today and

wasn't feeling up to much but staying in the house doesn't make me feel good at all. A trip to the park was needed and besides, it's the last day of summer today! which I'm not to sad about. I'm really starting to look forward to Autumn because I've always loved the colder weather more than the warmer months. What's not to love about cosy jumpers and fur coats? It sounds so comfortating! And looking at the photograph above you can already see the leaves turning into the lovely oranges and reds associated with Autumn!

Joining us (and mum!) on our park trip was our two doggies Heidi and Megan. They really enjoyed themselves and I can't think of a better way to spend a Sunday. A simple walk can really relax you, let you think and reflect but allow you to spend quality time with your family! I know I definately felt better mentally after my outing to the park.

What is your idea of a perfect Sunday?
